Inga, Kai, and Jason volunteer in the school library. They want to find the average number of pages of a library book. It would

be unreasonable to calculate the number of pages in every book to find the average. They decide they need to find a valid sample.
Inga suggests choosing 100 books from the history section to get a sample.

Kai suggests randomly selecting 100 books from the library’s entire catalog.

Jason suggests using 100 books from the teen fiction section to get a sample.

Who suggested the best way to produce a random sample that is not biased?

Answer:

\boxed{\sf x = 5}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf Solve  \: for  \: x  \: over  \: the  \: real \:  numbers:  \\ \sf \implies  \frac{2}{x - 3}   =  \frac{5}{x}  \\  \\  \sf Take  \: the \:  reciprocal  \: of  \: both \:  sides:  \\ \sf \implies  \frac{x - 3}{2}  =  \frac{x}{5}  \\  \\  \sf Expand  \: out \:  terms \:  of \:  the \:  left  \: hand \:  side:  \\  \\ \sf \implies \frac{x}{2}  -  \frac{3}{2}  =  \frac{x}{5}  \\  \\  \sf Subtract \:  \frac{x}{5}   -  \frac{3}{2}  \: from  \: both  \: sides: \\  \sf \implies \frac{x}{2}  -  \frac{3}{2} - ( \frac{x}{5}   -  \frac{3}{2} ) =  \frac{x}{5} - ( \frac{x}{5}  -  \frac{3}{2} ) \\  \\  \sf \implies \frac{x}{2}  -  \frac{3}{2} -  \frac{x}{5}    +   \frac{3}{2} =  \frac{x}{5} -  \frac{x}{5}  +  \frac{3}{2}  \\  \\  \sf \frac{x}{5}  -  \frac{x}{5}  = 0 :  \\  \sf \implies \frac{x}{2}  -  \frac{x}{5}  -  \frac{3}{2}  +  \frac{3}{2}  =  \frac{3}{2}  \\  \\  \sf  \frac{3}{2}   -   \frac{3}{2}   = 0:  \\  \sf \implies \frac{x}{2}  -  \frac{x}{5}  =  \frac{3}{2}   \\  \\ \sf \frac{x}{2}  -  \frac{x}{5} =  \frac{5x - 2x}{10}  =  \frac{3x}{10} :  \\   \sf \implies \frac{3x}{10}  =  \frac{3}{2}   \\  \\ \sf Multiply \:  both  \: sides \:  by \:  \frac{10}{3}  : \\   \sf \implies \frac{3x}{10}  \times  \frac{10}{3}  =  \frac{3}{2 }  \times  \frac{10}{3}   \\  \\ \sf \frac{3x}{10}  \times  \frac{10}{3}  =   \cancel{\frac{3}{10} } \times( x) \times  \cancel{ \frac{10}{3} } = x :  \\  \sf \implies x =  \frac{3}{2}  \times  \frac{10}{3} \\  \\   \sf  \frac{3}{2}  \times  \frac{10}{3}  = \cancel{ \frac{3}{2} }  \times \cancel{ \frac{3}{2} }  \times 5 :   \\ \sf \implies x = 5

the two shorter sides of a triangle are the same length. the length of the longer side is 5 m longer than each of the shorter si
STatiana [176]
Let the length of the shorter sides be x, then
Perimeter = x + x + x + 5
29 = 3x + 5
3x = 29 - 5 = 24
x = 24/3 = 8

Therefore, the length of longest side is 8 + 5 = 13 m.
