Hey there!

3x + 7 = 7x + 8 - 3x

3x + 7 = 4x + 8

SUBTRACT 4x to BOTH SIDES

3x + 7 - 4x = 4x + 8 - 4x

WORK IT OUT!

NEW EQUATION: -x + 7 = 8

-1x + 7 = 8

SUBTRACT 7 to BOTH SIDES

-1x + 7 - 7 = 8 - 7

CANCEL out: 7 - 7 because it give you 0

KEEP: 8 - 7 because it give you the value of x.

NEW EQUATION: -1x = 8 - 7

SIMPLIFY IT!

-1x = 1

DIVIDE -1 to BOTH SIDES

-1x/-1 = 1/-1

CANCEL out: -1/-1 because it give you 1

KEEP: 1/-1 because it give you the value of x

NEW EQUATION: x = 1/-1

SIMPLIFY IT!

x = -1

Therefore, your answer is: x = -1

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

It is impossible to get 5 aces when selecting cards from a shuffled deck. Express the indicated degree of likelihood as a probab

lianna [129]

Answer: P(5A) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four aces in total in a 52 card deck. Therefore the probability of getting 5 aces can be expressed as;

P(5A) = 4/52 × 3/51 × 2/50 × 1/49 × 0/48 = 0

Therefore, it is impossible to get 5 aces from a standard 52 cards deck

A trucking firm has a large inventory of spare parts that have been in storage for a long time. It knowsthat some proportion of

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

$0.1546\leq \widehat{p}\leq 0.3513$

Step-by-step explanation:

The firm tests 75 parts, and finds that 0.25 of them are notusable

n = 75

x = 0.25 \times 75 = 18.75≈19

$\widehat{p}=\frac{x}{n}$

$\widehat{p}=\frac{19}{75}$

$\widehat{p}=0.253$

Confidence level = 95%

So, Z_\alpha at 95% = 1.96

Formula of confidence interval of one sample proportion:

$=\widehat{p}-Z_\alpha \sqrt{\frac{\widehat{p}(1-\widehat{p}}{n}}\leq \widehat{p}\leq \widehat{p}+Z_\alpha \sqrt{\frac{\widehat{p}(1-\widehat{p}}{n}}$

$=0.253-(1.96)\sqrt{\frac{0.253(1-0.253)}{75}}\leq \widehat{p}\leq0.253+(1.96)\sqrt{\frac{0.253(1-0.253}{75}}$

Confidence interval $=0.1546\leq \widehat{p}\leq 0.3513$
