Answer:

B. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Our equation:

2/3x + 2 = 2 1/3

Let's isolate x to find our value:

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.

2/3x = 1/3

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3/2, or 1/5:

(This is used to make x = 1)

x = 1/2

B. 1/2 is your correct option.

Answer: B. 1/2

Isolate the variable by diving each side by factors that don’t contain the variable.

1. Subtract 2
2/3x+ 2 = 2 1/3
-2 -2

2. Divide 2/3
2/3X = 1/3
2/3 2/3

3. X = 1/2

Answer:

✔️m<BAC = 72°

✔️m<BCD = 108°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m<ABC = (4x - 16)°

m<ACB = (5x + 7)°

Find the numerical value of m<ABC, m<ACB, m<BAC, and m<BCD.

First we need to determine the value of x.

The ∆ given is an isosceles triangle with two equal sides, therefore, the angles opposite the two equal sides would also be equal.

Therefore:

(4x - 16)° + 2(5x + 7)° = 180° (sum of ∆)

Solve for x

4x - 16 + 10x + 14 = 180

Add like terms

14x - 2 = 180

Add 2 to both sides

14x = 182

Divide both sides by 14

x = 13

Find the measure of each angle by plugging in the value of x where necessary:

✔️m<ABC = (4x - 16)° = 4(13) - 16

m<ABC = 36°

✔️m<ACB = (5x + 7)° = 5(13) + 7

m<ACB = 72°

✔️m<BAC = m<ACB (both are base angles of the isosceles ∆, so they are equal)

Therefore,

m<BAC = 72°

✔️m<BCD = m<ABC + m<ACB (exterior angle theorem of a triangle)

m<BCD = 36 + 72 (Substitution)

m<BCD = 108°

Therefore, the angle measures that are correct are:

✔️m<BAC = 72°

✔️m<BCD = 108°

A circular flower bed is 19 m in diameter and has a circular sidewalk around it that is 4 m wide. Find the area of the sidewalk

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

289 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of the flower bed

A=πr²= (3.14)(9.5)² = 283.385

Then get the area of everything including the sidewalk

A=πr²= (3.14)(13.5)² = 572.265

Then subtract and you'll get the area of just the sidewalk

572.265 - 283.385 = 288.88m²

-10y<60 (Please solve and show work)

erma4kov [3.2K]

Y can realistically be any positive number, since a negative number multiplied by a positive number's product is negative. a negative number will always be less than a positive number, in this case the positive number being 60.

a negative number multiplied by another negative number's product is positive, so as long as the negative numbers are less than -6 (because -10 times -6 is 60, and 60 is not less than 60) y can be negative.

I hope this helps!

The Late Show with David Leterman is seen by a relatively large percentage of household members who record the show for viewing

Zanzabum

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 40000$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 40000$

b) $t=\frac{41182-40000}{\frac{19990}{\sqrt{1700}}}=2.438$

c) The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:

$df=n-1=1700-1=1699$

Since the sample size is large enough we cna use the z distribution as an approximation for the statsitic on this case.

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{(1699)}>2.438)=0.0074$

d) If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 1% of signficance. So we can conclude that the true mean is higher than 40000 at the significance level assumed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=41182$ represent the sample mean

$s=19990$ represent the sample standard deviation

$n=1700$ sample size

$\mu_o =40000$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.01$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

Part a: State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is greater than 40000, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 40000$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 40000$

If we analyze the size for the sample is > 30 but we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Part b: Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{41182-40000}{\frac{19990}{\sqrt{1700}}}=2.438$

Part c: P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:

$df=n-1=1700-1=1699$

Since the sample size is large enough we cna use the z distribution as an approximation for the statsitic on this case.

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{(1699)}>2.438)=0.0074$

Part d: Conclusion

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 1% of signficance. So we can conclude that the true mean is higher than 40000 at the significance level assumed.
