what is 3(x – 6) = -12x - 9

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x−6)=−12x−9

(3)(x)+(3)(−6)=−12x+−9(Distribute)

3x+−18=−12x+−9

3x−18=−12x−9

Step 2: Add 12x to both sides.

3x−18+12x=−12x−9+12x

15x−18=−9

Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.

15x−18+18=−9+18

15x=9

Step 4: Divide both sides by 15

15x/15 = 9/15

  so x = 3/5

Consider RS endpoints R(-2,1) and S(4,4) Find point Q that is 2/3 away NEED THIS ASAP PLEASE ANSWER

Answers

The question does not clearly specify from which endpoint Q is at 2/3. I'll assume Q is 2/3 away from R.

Answer:

The point Q is (2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the aligned points R(-2,1), S(4,4), and Q(x,y) in such a way that Q is 2/3 away from R (assumed).

The required point Q must satisfy the relation:

d(RQ) = 2/3 d(RS)

Where d is the distance between two points.

The horizontal and vertical axes also satisfy the same relation:

x(RQ) = 2/3 x(RS)

[tex]x_R-x_Q=2/3(x_R-x_S)[/tex]

And, similarly:

[tex]y_R-y_Q=2/3(y_R-y_S)[/tex]

Working on the first condition:

[tex]-2-x=2/3(-2-4)=2/3(-6)[/tex]

Removing the parentheses:

[tex]-2-x=-4[/tex]

Adding 2:

[tex]-x = -2[/tex]

x = 2

Similarly, working with the vertical component:

[tex]1-y=2/3(1-4)=2/3(-3)[/tex]

Removing the parentheses:

[tex]1-y=-2[/tex]

Subtracting 1:

[tex]-y = -3[/tex]

y = 3

The point Q is (2,3)

In October of 2019, Gallup asked a random sample of 1,506 Americans which of two approaches to punishing murder they thought was better, the death penalty or life without possibility of parole. For the first time since Gallup began asking the question in 1985, a majority of Americans now say life imprisonment is a better approach for punishing murder than is the death penalty. According to the 2019 Gallup death-penalty poll, 60% percent of Americans asked to choose whether the death penalty or life without possibility of parole "is the better penalty for murder" chose the life-sentencing option. 36% favored the death penalty.

Required:
a. Find a 95% confidence interval for the proportion adults in the US that now believe life imprisonment is a better approach for punishing murder.
b. Interpret your interval above in the context of this problem.
c. Use your interval to find the margin of error associated with this confidence interval.
d. If we increase the level of confidence to 98%, will the interval be wider or narrower?

Answers

Answer:

a

The 95% confidence interval is   [tex]0.5753<  p <0.62474[/tex]  

b

 This 95% confidence interval tell us that there 95% confidence that the true proportion of adults in the US that now believe life imprisonment is a better approach for punishing murder lies within the interval

c

 The margin of error is   [tex]E =    0.02474 [/tex]  

d

 The confidence interval becomes wider

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n = 1506

    The sample proportion is  [tex]\^ p = 0.60[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

     [tex]E =  Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\^ p (1- \^ p)}{n} } [/tex]

=>   [tex]E =    1.96 * \sqrt{\frac{0.60 (1- 0.60)}{1506} } [/tex]    

=>   [tex]E =    0.02474 [/tex]  

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\^ p -E <  p <  \^ p +E[/tex]

=>   [tex]0.60 - 0.02474 <  p <0.60 + 0.02474[/tex]  

=>   [tex]0.5753<  p <0.62474[/tex]  

This 95% confidence interval tell us that there 95% confidence that the true proportion of adults in the US that now believe life imprisonment is a better approach for punishing murder lies within the interval

Generally the level of confidence varies directly with the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] and this in turn varies directly with the margin of error which when sample proportion is constant it determines the width of the confidence interval so when the level of confidence increases the confidence interval becomes wider

Derrick really wants to earn at least $330 at the Bike Shop this week before he goes on vacation. He earns $150 in a week plus $20 for each bicycle he assembles. Which inequality would help Derrick determine how many bicycles (b) he needs to put together?

Answers

Answer:

150 + 20x ≥ 330

Step-by-step explanation:

"At least" indicates that you should use the greater than or equal to sign. His weekly wage and the bicycle assembly money when added must be at least 330, so 150 and 20x are on the same side. The 20x represents the $20 for each bicycle multiplied by the amount of bicycles he assembled.

The number of employees per department are normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 198 employees and an unknown population mean. If a random sample of 22 departments is taken and results in a sample mean of 1460 employees, find the error bound (EBM) of the confidence interval with a 80% confidence level.

Answers

Answer:

EBM = +-54.126

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have confidence interval to be 80%

The formula to solve this is in the attachment.

Bar X = 1460

Z-alpha/2 = 1.282

Sd = standard deviation = 198 employees

n = 22 departments

After we have inserted all values in to the formula we have:

1460 +-(1.282*198/√22)

= 1460+-(54.12604)

= (1405.87, 1514.126)

The error bounded mean EBM

= +-z-alpha/2 x (sd/√n)

= 1.282 x 198/√22

= 1.282 x 42.22

EBM = +-54.126

A school newspaper estimates that their academic team will win 25 out of 30 matches for the season. After 15 matches, they have won 12. If the team continues winning at this rate, what will be the percent error of the newspaper's estimate once the season is over? Round to the nearest percent​

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent error of the newspaper's estimate once the season is over will be 4%.

What is the percentage?

The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A quarter of 100 can be used to express the ratio. Per 100 is what the term percent signifies. The symbol ‘%’ is used to symbolize it.

The percentage is given as,

Percentage (P) = [Final value - Initial value] / Initial value x 100

A school newspaper estimates that their academic team will win 25 out of 30 matches for the season.

Then the percentage will be given as,

P = (25 / 30) x 100

P = 0.8333 x 10

P = 83.33%

After 15 matches, they won 12. Then the percentage will be given as,

P = (12 / 15) x 100

P = 0.80 x 100

P = 80%

If the team continues winning at this rate. Then the percent error of the newspaper's estimate once the season is over will be

P = [(83.33 - 80) / (83.33)] x 100

P = 0.04 x 100

P = 4%

The hiking path to the top of a mountain makes, at the steepest place, an angle of 20° with the
horizontal, and it maintains this constant slope for 500 meters, as illustrated below. Which of the
following is the closest approximation to the change in elevation, in meters, over this 500-meter
section?
500 meters
20
A 20
B) 170
180
D 250

Answers

We are given:

a right angled triangle with the angle of elevation = 20 degrees

Hypotenuse of the Triangle = 500 m

Finding the change in Elevation:

We will use trigonometry in the given triangle to find the length of the perpendicular of the triangle

Using trigonometry, we found that the perpendicular = 500 * Sin 20 degrees

Perpendicular = 500 * 0.342           [sin(20 degrees) = 0.342]

Perpendicular = 171 m

The closest value to 171m in the given options is 170m

Therefore, 170m (option B) is correct

Find the length of line segment UV.

Answers

Answer:

The length of the line segment UV is 76 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, the line segment joining the mid-points of two sides is parallel to the third side and equal to half its length

In Δ ONT

∵ U is the mid-point of ON

∵ V is the mid-point of TN

→ That means UV is joining the mid-points of two sides

∴ UV // OT

UV = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] OT

∵ UV = 7x - 8

∵ OT = 12x + 8

7x - 8 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (12x + 8)

→ Multiply the bracket by [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

∵ [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (12x + 8) =  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (12x) +  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (8) = 6x + 4

7x - 8 = 6x + 4

→ Add 8 to both sides

∴ 7x - 8 + 8 = 6x + 4 + 8

∴ 7x = 6x + 12

→ Subtract 6x from both sides

∴ 7x - 6x = 6x - 6x + 12

x = 12

→ Substitute the value of x in the expression of UV to find it

∵ UV = 7(12) - 8 = 84 - 8

UV = 76

The length of the line segment UV is 76 units
