Answer 1

Answer:

x= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+14= 8

2x= -6

x = -3

Answer 2

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] CE = CD + DE

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] 8 = (x + 10) + (x + 4)

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] 8 = x + 10 + x + 4

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] 8 = 2x + 14

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] 8 ― 14 = 2x

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] ―6 = 2x

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] ―6 ÷ 2 = x

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] –3 = x

Therefore, the value of x is 3.

Answer:

b.

Graph B

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following linear equation:

[tex]6x = y + 8[/tex]

When x = 0:

[tex]6(0) = y + 8[/tex]

[tex]y = -8[/tex]

Thus, the line goes through (0,-8).

When y = 4:

[tex]6x = y + 8[/tex]

[tex]6x = 4 + 8[/tex]

[tex]6x = 12[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{12}{6} = 2[/tex]

So also through (2,4).

Thus means that the correct answer is given by Graph B.

1. In the spring of 2017, the Consumer Reports National Research Center conducted a survey of 1007 adults to learn about their major health-care concerns. The survey results showed that 574 of the respondents lack confidence they will be able to afford health insurance in the future. Develop a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of adults who lack confidence they will be able to afford health insurance in the future.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is "1668". A further solution is provided below.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

Estimated proportion,

[tex]\hat{p} = \frac{574}{1007}[/tex]

  [tex]=0.57[/tex]

Margin of error,

E = 0.02

Level of confidence,

= 90%

= 0.90

Critical value,

[tex]Z_{0.10}=1.65[/tex]

Now,

⇒  [tex]0.02=1.65\times \sqrt{\frac{0.57\times 0.43}{n} }[/tex]

 [tex]0.0004=2.7225\times \frac{0.2451}{n}[/tex]

         [tex]n=\frac{2.7225\times 0.2451}{0.0004}[/tex]

             [tex]=1668.21[/tex]

A line that passes through the origin also passes through the point (6,2). What is the slope of the line?

please answer with an explanation

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is the ratio of its "rise" to its "run." The "rise" is the change in vertical distance, and the "run" is the corresponding change in horizontal distance between two points on the line. The formula for the slope is ...

  [tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\qquad\text{where $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ are points on the line}[/tex]

In this problem, you are told the line passes through the origin, which is point (x, y) = (0, 0), and through point (6, 2). Using these coordinates in the slope formula gives ...

  [tex]m=\dfrac{2-0}{6-0}=\dfrac{2}{6}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{3}}[/tex]

__

You may notice that when the line passes through the origin, the slope is simply the ratio y/x of any point on the line. Here, that ratio is 2/6 = 1/3.

_____

Additional comment

A line through the origin is the graph of a proportional relationship. That is, y is proportional to x. The slope of the line is the constant of proportionality. The equation of the line is ...

  y = kx . . . . . . where k is the constant of proportionality.

The line in this problem statement will have the equation ...

  y = (1/3)x

I’m struggling with this question someone help ASAP plz

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:

30 = 10 + 3(h - 2)

        30 = 10 + 3h - 6

        26 = 3h

        h = 8.67

Step-by-step explanation:

We're gonna calculate by our part the hours a new costumer can rent a bike and pay a total of $30, using the original function:

f (h) = 10 + 3(h - 2)

Where:

f (h) = Total cost. h = the number of hours.

We know The total money spent must be $30, by this reason, the function change to:

30 = 10 + 3(h - 2)

Now, we must clear the h variable, by this reason, we multiply 3 by h and 2:

30 = 10 + 3*h - 3*2 30 = 10 + 3h - 6

We pass the 10 and the -6 to the left side of the equality:

30 - 10 + 6 = 3h (Remember to change the signs when you do this step) 26 = 3h

Finally, we pass the 3 to the left side of the equality:

26 / 3 = h (the 3 pass to divide because is multiplying the x)

8.666666666667 = h

If we just use two decimals, the number of hours is:

h = 8.67

How the third option is the one that shows this calculation and result, that is the correct answer.

Find the measure of of RA.

Answers

Answer:

RA = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is isosceles ( 2 equal sides ) , then LU is a perpendicular bisector , so

AU = RU , that is

4r = 18 - 2r ( add 2r to both sides )

6r = 18 ( divide both sides by 6 )

r = 3

Then

RA = 18 - 2r + 4r = 18 + 2r = 18 + 2(3) = 18 + 6 = 24

A box has length 4 feet, width 5 feet, and height 8 inches. Find the volume of the box in cubic feet and in cubic inches.

Answers

Answer:

13.4 cubic feet and 23040 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

In cubic feet =  13.3 ft^3 ...........or 13.33ft^3

In cubic inches = 23040in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

In cubic feet it becomes

4(5) = 20 feet ^2   ................but we need volume in feet

so 8 inches = .............2/3 of a foot = 0.666667

Answer therefore is   (4) x (5) x (0.666667) = 13.32ft^3

In cubic inches it becomes

4 x 12 = 48 inches

5  x 12  = 60 inches

and 8 inches

48 x 60 x 8 = 23040 in^3

We check by squaring the divider

23040/12^3 = 13.333

We only square and square again to find a cube but to square once we do this with area too.

Area 1. =  4 x 5 = 20 feet^2

Area 2. =  48 x 60 = 2880 in ^2  / 12^2 = 20

Answers

Answer:

n(B) = 1350

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Venn sets, we have that:

Three values are given in the exercise.

The other is n(B), which we have to find. So

[tex]n(A \cup B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A \cap B)[/tex]

[tex]2290 = 1300 + n(B) - 360[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

The CPA Practice Advisor reports that the mean preparation fee for 2017 federal income tax returns was $273. Use this price as the population mean and assume the population standard deviation of preparation fees is $100.

This means that [tex]\mu = 273, \sigma = 100[/tex]

A) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?

Sample of 30 means that [tex]n = 30, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{30}}[/tex]

The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 273 + 16 = 289 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 273 - 16 = 257. So

X = 289

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{289 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.88[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.88[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8106

X = 257

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{257 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.88[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.88[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1894

0.8106 - 0.1894 = 0.6212

0.6212 = 62.12% probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.

B) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 50 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?

Sample of 30 means that [tex]n = 50, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{50}}[/tex]

X = 289

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{289 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{50}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.13[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.13[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8708

X = 257

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{257 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{50}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.13[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.13[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1292

0.8708 - 0.1292 = 0.7416

0.7416 = 74.16% probability that the mean price for a sample of 50 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.

C) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 100 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?

Sample of 30 means that [tex]n = 100, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}[/tex]

X = 289

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{289 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.6[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.6[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9452

X = 257

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{257 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.6[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.6[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0648

0.9452 - 0.0648 =

0.8804 = 88.04% probability that the mean price for a sample of 100 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.

D) Which, if any of the sample sizes in part (a), (b), and (c) would you recommend to ensure at least a .95 probability that the same mean is withing $16 of the population mean?

None of them ensure, that one which comes closer is a sample size of 100 in option c), to guarantee, we need to keep increasing the sample size.

Calculate the pH of a buffer solution made by mixing 300 mL of 0.2 M acetic acid, CH3COOH, and 200 mL of 0.3 M of its salt sodium acetate, CH3COONa, to make 500 mL of solution. Ka for CH3COOH = 1.76×10–5

Answers

Answer:

Approximately [tex]4.75[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark: this approach make use of the fact that in the original solution, the concentration of  [tex]\rm CH_3COOH[/tex] and [tex]\rm CH_3COO^{-}[/tex] are equal.

[tex]{\rm CH_3COOH} \rightleftharpoons {\rm CH_3COO^{-}} + {\rm H^{+}}[/tex]

Since [tex]\rm CH_3COONa[/tex] is a salt soluble in water. Once in water, it would readily ionize to give [tex]\rm CH_3COO^{-}[/tex] and [tex]\rm Na^{+}[/tex] ions.

Assume that the [tex]\rm CH_3COOH[/tex] and [tex]\rm CH_3COO^{-}[/tex] ions in this solution did not disintegrate at all. The solution would contain:

[tex]0.3\; \rm L \times 0.2\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} = 0.06\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm CH_3COOH[/tex], and

[tex]0.06\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm CH_3COO^{-}[/tex] from [tex]0.2\; \rm L \times 0.3\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} = 0.06\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm CH_3COONa[/tex].

Accordingly, the concentration of [tex]\rm CH_3COOH[/tex] and [tex]\rm CH_3COO^{-}[/tex] would be:

[tex]\begin{aligned} & c({\rm CH_3COOH}) \\ &= \frac{n({\rm CH_3COOH})}{V} \\ &= \frac{0.06\; \rm mol}{0.5\; \rm L} = 0.12\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} \end{aligned}[/tex].

[tex]\begin{aligned} & c({\rm CH_3COO^{-}}) \\ &= \frac{n({\rm CH_3COO^{-}})}{V} \\ &= \frac{0.06\; \rm mol}{0.5\; \rm L} = 0.12\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} \end{aligned}[/tex].

In other words, in this buffer solution, the initial concentration of the weak acid [tex]\rm CH_3COOH[/tex] is the same as that of its conjugate base, [tex]\rm CH_3COO^{-}[/tex].

Hence, once in equilibrium, the [tex]\rm pH[/tex] of this buffer solution would be the same as the [tex]{\rm pK}_{a}[/tex] of [tex]\rm CH_3COOH[/tex].

Calculate the [tex]{\rm pK}_{a}[/tex] of [tex]\rm CH_3COOH[/tex] from its [tex]{\rm K}_{a}[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned} & {\rm pH}(\text{solution}) \\ &= {\rm pK}_{a} \\ &= -\log_{10}({\rm K}_{a}) \\ &= -\log_{10} (1.76 \times 10^{-5}) \\ &\approx 4.75\end{aligned}[/tex].

For the first component the shape parameter is 2.1 and the characteristic life is 100,000 breaking events. For the second component the shape parameter is 1.8 and characteristic life of 80,000. Find the reliability of the system after 2,000 breaking events:

Answers

Answer:

0.9984

Step-by-step explanation:

we have shape parameter for the first component as 2.1

characteristics life = 100000

for this component

we have

exp(-2000/100000)².¹

= e^-0.0002705

= 0.9997

for the second component

shape parameter = 1.8

characteristic life = 80000

= exp(-2000/80000)¹.⁸

= e^-0.001307

= 0.9987

the reliability oif the system after 2000  events

= 0.9987 * 0.9997

= 0.9984
