Answer:

3x = 6 + 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The word "product" defines multiplication between two numbers. Those numbers are x and 3. The word "is" defines the "equal sign". The word "more" defines addition. Now, using these definitions, let's create an equation.

=> (3 × x) = 6 + (2 × x)
=> 3x = 6 + 2x

Hence, Option C is correct.

A florist arranges 4 flower arrangements in 92 minutes.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 9 \ arrangements }}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following setup:

$\frac{arrangements}{minutes} =\frac{arrangements}{minutes}$

We know that the florist can arrange 4 in 92 minutes.

$\frac{4 \ arrangements}{92 \ minutes} = \frac{arrangements}{minutes}$

We don't know how many the florist can arrange in 207 minutes, so we say x arrangements can be completed in 207 minutes.

$\frac{4 \ arrangements}{92 \ minutes} = \frac{ x \ arrangements}{ 207 \ minutes}$

$\frac{4}{92} =\frac{x}{207}$

Solve for x by isolating it on one side of the proportion.

x is being divided by 207. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides of the proportion by 207.

$207*\frac{4}{92}=\frac{x}{207}*207$

$207*\frac{4}{92}=x$

$207*0.0434782609=x$

$9=x$

The florist can arrange <u>9 arrangements</u> in 207 minutes.

Solve for y<br> 1/8y-2/3=5.5

amm1812

Answer:

y = 49 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8y-2/3=5.5

1/8y = 5.5 + 2/3

multiply both sides by 8:

y = 8(5.5 + 2/3) = 44 + 16/3 = 44 + 5 1/3 = 49 1/3

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

p value = 0.03514

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotheses would be

$H_0: p = 0.05\\H_a: p$

(left tailed test at 10% level of significance)

Here p stands for the sample proportion of mothers smoked more than 21 cigarettes during their pregnancy.

Sample size =130

persons who smoked = 2

Sample proportion = $\frac{2}{130} \\=0.0154$

Assuming H0 to be true

Std error= $\sqrt{0.05*0.95/130} \\=0.01911$

p difference = -0.0346

Test statistic z=-1.81

p value = 0.03514

Since p is less than 0.10, significance level, we reject H0
