___________________________
or: write as: " 2 [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] " .
___________________________
Step-by-step explanation:
___________________________
Set up a ratio:
Note: Segment FH = (x + 35)
Segment JL = 20 ;
Segment FH ~ Segment JL ;
___________________________
Note: Segment GH = (x - 4) ;
Segment KL = 5 ;
Segment GH ~ Segment KL .
___________________________
So, ( x + 3.5) : 20 :: (x-4) : 5 ;
Write this ratio in fraction format:
___________________________
→ [tex]\frac{(x+3.5) }{20 } = \frac{(x-4) }{5}[/tex] ;
Now; "cross-factor multiply" :
→ [tex]\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d }[/tex] ; → [tex]ad = bc[/tex] ; { [tex]{ a\neq0 ; b\neq0 ; c\neq0 ; d\neq0[/tex] .}.
___________________________
So:
5(x + 3.5) = 20(x - 4) ;
___________________________
→ To simplify, start by divide each side of the equation by "5" ;
___________________________
→ {5(x + 3.5) } / 5 = { 20(x - 4) } / 5 ;
to get:
→ (x + 3.5) = 4(x - 4) ;
___________________________
Now, on the right-hand side of the equation;
let us expand the expression;
___________________________
We have the expression: " 4(x - 4) " ;
To expand:
Note the "distributive property of multiplication:
→ a(b + c) = ab + ac ;
Likewise:
→ 4(x - 4) = 4x - 16 ;
___________________________
Now, we can rewrite our equation:
___________________________
→ " x + 3.5 = 4x - 15 " ;
Now, we can subtract "x" from each side of the question;
& add "15" to each side of the equation; as folllows:
___________________________
→ x + 3.5 = 4x - 15 ;
- x + 15 = - x +15
___________________________
to get: 8.5 = 3x ;
↔ 3x = 8.5 ;
Now, divide each side of the equation by "3" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation;
& to solve for "x" ; as follows:
→ 3x / 3 = 8.5 / 3 ;
to get: x = 8.5 /3
= 2.83333333333 ;
or; write as: " 2 [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] ."

Step-by-step explanation:
A family lives in a large tower apartment building, 10 floors high. Every day their son takes the elevator from the family’s apartment on the 10th floor to the ground floor and goes to school. When he returns in the afternoon, he uses the elevator to get to the fifth floor, and then uses the stairs for the remaining five floors. Why?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering that the question is a fun riddle, I will give a suitable fun answer.
The question says that the son goes to school, so we can assume that the boy is a young child. So, he is probably short.
So, while getting down the stairs, it is easy for him to press the button in the elevator to reach the ground floor as the button for ground floor is the on the bottom of the switch panel.
However, since he is short he cannot reach the button for the 10th floor after returning from school. He can only reach up to the button for the 5th floor. So, he travels up to the 5th floor by the elevator and from there he takes the stairs to reach the 10th floor.
What is the slope of the line that goes through the points (1,-5) and (4,1)?
Answer:
D. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
(1 - -5)/(4 - 1) = 6/3 = 2
Answer: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁). In this case, x₁ = 1, y₁ = -5, x₂ = 4, and y₂ = 1. So the slope is:
(1 - (-5))/(4 - 1) = 6/3 = 2
What is the value of the slope of a line with the equation: 20-5x?
Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
the slope is the variable in front of the x
The grade point averages for 10 randomly selected students in an algebra class with 125 students are listed below. What is the effect on the width of the confidence interval if the sample size is increased to 20?
Answer:
width of the confidence interval decreases if the sample size is increased to 20.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are some factors which affect the width of the confidence interval such as:
The decrease in the sample standard deviation decreases the width of the interval .
The decrease the confidence level decreases the width of the interval .
The increase in the sample size decreases the width of the interval .
In the given question the previous sample size was 10 which was then increased to 20. So this increase in sample size causes the confidence interval to decrease. This is because when sample size increases, it decreases the standard error. This interprets that the sample size is getting closer to true population size.
The equation for the line of best fit relating the weight of a child in kilograms y in relation to the child's age in years x. Which of the following
statements is true?y = 3x +3.25
O A The average weight in kilograms is 3 times the age.
OB. The average weight in kilograms is 3 times the height
O C. The average child is 3 years old.
D. The average child weighed 3.25 kg at birth.
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
It is D because using the equation y=3x +3.25 you can see that the y intercept is 3.25 which means in zero years the child will weigh 3.25 or weighs 3.25 kg at birth.

Calculate the principal if the maturity value is $4,500 and the simple interest is $350.
Answer:
The principal is $4,150.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the principal if the maturity value is $4,500 and the simple interest is $350.
As we know that the formula for calculating the final amount or maturity amount is given by;
Amount = Principal + Interest
Here, Simple interest = $350
Amount or Maturity value = $4,500
So, the Principal = Amount - Interest
Principal = $4,500 - $350
= $4,150
Hence, the principal if the maturity value is $4,500 and the simple interest is $350 is $4150.

Someone, please help me with this.
Answer:
[tex]\large\boxed{x=14}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the angles are adjacent to each other and form a straight line, they are supplementary angles. Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees, therefore, you can add the two angle measures together and set them equal to 180.
(7x - 1) + (6x - 1) = 180 combine like terms
13x - 2 = 180 add 2 to both sides
13x = 182 divide by 13 on both sides
[tex]\boxed{x=14}[/tex]
Answer:
x = 14°Step-by-step explanation:
Since the two angles lie on a straight line the sum of their angles is equal to 180°.
To find x add up the two angles and equate it to 180° and solve for x
That's
7x - 1 + 6x - 1 = 180
13x - 2 = 180°
Move 2 to the right side of the equation
That's
13x = 180 + 2
13x = 182
Divide both sides by 13
That's
[tex] \frac{13x}{13} = \frac{182}{13} [/tex]
We have the final answer as
x = 14°Hope this helps you
Find the missing probability. P(A)=25,P(B|A)=920,P(A∩B)=?
Assuming you meant to say P(A) = 2/5 and P(B|A) = 9/20, then,
P(A∩B) = P(A)*P(B|A)
P(A∩B) = (2/5)*(9/20)
P(A∩B) = (2*9)/(5*20)
P(A∩B) = (2*9)/(5*2*10)
P(A∩B) = 9/(5*10)
P(A∩B) = 9/50 is the answerThe required probability P( A ∩ B ) = 2300.
To find the missing probability. P( A ) = 25, P( B | A ) = 920, P( A∩ B) = ?
What is probability?Probability can be defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of events.
From properties of probability
P( A ∩ B ) / P(A) = P( B | A )
P( A ∩ B) = P( B | A ) . P(A)
From given
P( A ) = 25, P( B | A ) = 920
P( A ∩ B ) = P( B | A ) . P(A)
P( A ∩ B ) = 920 . 25
P( A ∩ B ) = 2300
Thus, the required probability P( A ∩ B ) = 2300 for P( A ) = 25, P( B | A ) = 920.

Best regards!!
Answer: f(-3) = 11
Step-by-step explanation: Here we're given the function
f(x) = -2x + 5 and we're asked to find f(-3).
In other words, if we put an x into our function, we get a -2x + 5 out.
So what happens when we put a -3 into the function?
Well if we put a -3 into the function,
that's f(-3), we get a -2(-3) + 5 out.
Now all we have to do is simplify on the right side,
-2(-3) is 6, so we have 6 + 5 which is 11.
So f(-3) is 11.
Hershey’s bar were purchased at $6 per dozen and sold at 1.25 each. find the profit on 14 dozen Hershey’s bar.
Answer:
$126.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The Hershey bars were purchased for $6 per dozen. There are 12 bars per dozen. First, find the cost per bar.
cost / bar
$6 / 12 bars
$0.50 / bar
Next, find the profit on one bar. The bars costs $0.50 each and are being sold for $1.25. The profit will be the difference between the two numbers.
$1.25 - $0.50
$0.75
Finally, find the profit on 14 dozen bars.
There are 168 bars in 14 dozen. ( 12 per dozen, 14 dozen, 12*14= 168).
Multiply the profit of one bar ($0.75) by 168.
168 *$ 0.75
$126
The profit on 14 dozen Hershey bars is $126.00

(20 points) A statistics practitioner calculated the mean and the standard deviation from a sample of 400. They are x = 98 and s = 20: (a) Compute the p-value in order to test H0 : = 100 against H1 : 6= 100: (b) Compute the p-value in order to test H0 : = 100 against H1 : > 100:
Answer:
The P-value is 0.0234.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a statistics practitioner calculated the mean and the standard deviation from a sample of 400. They are x = 98 and s = 20.
Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean.
So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] = 100 {means that the population mean is equal to 100}
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] > 100 {means that the population mean is more than 100}
The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation;
T.S. = [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]
where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean = 98
s = sample standard deviation = 20
n = sample size = 400
So, the test statistics = [tex]\frac{98-100}{\frac{20}{\sqrt{400} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t_3_9_9[/tex]
= -2
The value of t-test statistics is -2.
Now, the P-value of the test statistics is given by;

Find the standardized test statistic, z to test the hypothesis that p1 = p2. Use α = 0.05. The sample statistics listed below are from independent samples. Sample statistics: n1 = 50, x1 = 35, and n2 = 60, x2 = 40
|0.4552| < 1.96, we fail to reject the null hypothesis that p₁ = p₂.
Therefore, at the 0.05 significance level, there is not enough evidence to conclude that the proportions of success in the two samples are significantly different.
To find the standardized test statistic (z) to test the hypothesis that p₁ = p₂, where p₁ and p₂ are the proportions of success in two independent samples, we can use the following formula:
z = (p₁ - p₂) / √(p * (1 - p) * ((1/n₁) + (1/n₂)))
where:
p₁ and p₂ are the sample proportions of success in the two samples.
p = (x₁ + x₂) / (n₁ + n₂) is the pooled proportion of success in both samples.
n₁ and n₂ are the sample sizes of the two samples.
x₁ and x₂ are the number of successes in the two samples.
Given the sample statistics:
n₁ = 50, x₁ = 35 (sample 1)
n₂= 60, x₂ = 40 (sample 2)
First, calculate the pooled proportion (p):
p = (x₁ + x₂) / (n₁ + n₂)
p = (35 + 40) / (50 + 60)
p = 75 / 110
p ≈ 0.6818
Now, calculate the standardized test statistic (z):
z = (p₁ - p₂) / √(p * (1 - p) * ((1/n₁) + (1/n₂)))
z = (35/50 - 40/60) / √(0.6818 * (1 - 0.6818) * ((1/50) + (1/60)))
z = (0.7 - 0.6667) / √(0.6818 * 0.3182 * (0.02 + 0.0167))
z = 0.0333 / √(0.1456 * 0.0367)
z = 0.0333 / √(0.00534272)
z = 0.0333 / 0.073068
z ≈ 0.4552
Now, compare the standardized test statistic (z) with the critical value at α = 0.05. Since this is a two-tailed test, the critical value is approximately ±1.96 (at a 5% significance level).
Since |0.4552| < 1.96, we fail to reject the null hypothesis that p₁ = p₂.
Therefore, at the 0.05 significance level, there is not enough evidence to conclude that the proportions of success in the two samples are significantly different.
