Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

4/3 ( 3x+9) -2x= 15

Distribute 4/3

4x+12 -2x =15

Combine like terms

2x+12 = 15

Subtract 12 from each side

2x+12-12 =15-12

2x = 3

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 3/2

x = 3/2

Answer 2

Answer:

4/3(3x+9)-2x=15

4x+12+9-2x=15

2x+21=15

2x=-6

x=-3

Answer:

  r = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of proportionality can be found by solving the equation for r:

  r = y/x

Then any corresponding values of x and y can be used to find r:

  r = 25/10 = 2.5

The constant of proportionality is 2.5.

A certain test preparation course is designed to help students improve their scores on the LSAT exam. A mock exam is given at the beginning and end of the course to determine the effectiveness of the course. The following measurements are the net change in 6 students' scores on the exam after completing the course: 6,16,19,12,15,14.
Using these data, construct a 90% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course. Assume the population is approximately normal. Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval.

Answers

Answer:

The critical value is [tex]T_c = 2.5706[/tex].

The 90% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course is (9.04, 18.30).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to find the sample mean and the sample standard deviation:

Sample mean:

[tex]\overline{x} = \frac{6+16+19+12+15+14}{6} = 13.67[/tex]

Sample standard deviation:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{(6-13.67)^2+(16-13.67)^2+(19-13.67)^2+(12-13.67)^2+(15-13.67)^2+(14-13.67)^2}{5}} = 4.4121[/tex]

Confidence interval:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 6 - 1 = 5

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 5 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 2.5706, that is, the critical value is [tex]T_c = 2.5706[/tex]

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.5706\frac{4.4121}{\sqrt{6}} = 4.63[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 13.67 - 4.63 = 9.04.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 13.67 + 4.63 = 18.30.

The 90% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course is (9.04, 18.30).

Abdul's gas tank is 1/3 full. After he buys 12 gallons of gas, it is 7/9 full. How many gallons can abdul's tank hold

Answers

Answer:

Abdul's tank can hold 27 gallons of gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Abdul's gas tank is 1/3 full, and after he buys 12 gallons of gas, it is 7/9 full, to determine how many gallons can Abdul's tank hold the following calculation must be performed:

1/3 = 0.3333

7/9 = 0.7777

0.777 - 0.333 = 0.444

0.444 = 12

1 = X

12 / 0.444 = X

27 = X

Therefore, Abdul's tank can hold 27 gallons of gas.

Solve for y. 14y-6(y-3)=22

Answers

Answer:

y=0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

14y-6(y-3)=22

14y-6y+18=22

8y+18=22

8y=4

y=0.5

Then we check our work...

14(0.5)-6((0.5)-3)=22

7-6(-2.5)=22

7+15=22

7+15 does equal 22, so this solution is correct.

Suppose your Unit Quiz grades have been: 85%, 80%, 96%, 72%, 78%, 85% and 92%

a) What is your average/mean score?

b) What is the median score?

c) What is the mode score?

d) Why is the mean lower than the median?

e) What will your mean be if you get a perfect score of 100% on your next quiz?

Answers

Answer:

mean: 84

median: 85

mode: 85

explainations for d and e below.

Step-by-step explanation:

mean:

(85+80+96+72+78+85+92)/7 = 544/7 = 84

median:

sort them in order from least to greatest first

72, 78, 80, 85, 85, 92, 96

find the middle number in that order, that's your median. in this case, it's 85.

mode:

number that appears the most in the order; the frequency. in this case as well, it's also 85.

answer for d:

the reason why the mean is lower than the median is because of the fact we were figuring out the average and had to divide, unlike the median where it's just the middle of the order we have.

answer for e:

(85+80+96+72+78+85+92+100)/8 = 644/8 = 80.5%

Where are the minimum and maximum values for f(x) = -2 + 4 cos x on the interval (0,21]?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum value is when cos x = 1

So it is -2 + 4(1) = 2.

Minimum value, when  cos x = -1:

= -2  + 4(-1) = -6.

Answer:

The maximum 2 is reached when x=2pi,4pi, and 6pi.

The minimum -6 is reached when x=pi, 3pi,and 5pi.

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's first look at cos(x) on interval (0,21].

How many rotations is that? Does it at least contain 1 full rotation? If it contains one full rotation that means all the values from -1 to 1 (inclusive) are tagged? If it doesn't contain a full rotation, we might have to dig a little deeper.

So we know x=0 isn't included and that's when cosine is first 1,but this doesn't mean 1 won't be hit later.

Let's figure out the number of rotations:

21/(2pi)=3.3 approximately

This means we make at least 3 rotations.

So this means we definitely will have all the values from -1 to 1 tagged (inclusive).

Now let's look at whole function.

f(x) = -2 + 4 cos x

-2+(-4) to -2+4 will be the range of the function

So the minimum is -6 and the maximum is 2.

So the min occurs when cos(x)=-1 and the max occurs when cos(x)=1.

We have a little over three rotations and remember we can't include x=0.

cos(x)=1

when x=2pi (one full rotation)

when x=4pi (two full rotations)

when x=6pi (three full rotations)

We will stop here because cosine won't be 1 again until a fourth full rotation

cos(x)=-1

when x=pi (half rotation)

When x=3pi (one + half rotation)

When x=5pi (two+half rotation)

We can't include x=7pi (three+half rotation)

because this one is actually not in the interval because 3.5 is more than 3.3 .

The maximum 2 is reached when x=2pi,4pi, and 6pi.

The minimum -6 is reached when x=pi, 3pi,and 5pi.

The output of the first one is 21 and you need to find x to the power of 2 subtract 4. So to find where we started add 4 to 21. This gets you to 25 and the square root of 25 is 5. So for the first one X=5

Work showed:

Y=x^2-4
21=x^2-4
Add 4 to both sides
25=x^2
Find the square root of 25 to get X as 5

For the second output (y), plug 21 for x

Y=4x+6
Y=4(21)+6
Y=84+6

Angle Formed by Two Chords= 1/2(SUM of Intercepted Arcs)

105 = 1/2 (120+x)

210 = 120+x

Subtract 120 from each side

210-120 = x

90 =x

The value of  Intercepted Arcs x will be 90. so option C is correct.

What is the relation between line perpendicular to chord from the center of circle?

If the considered circle has center O and chord AB, then if there is perpendicular from O to AB at point C, then that point C is bisecting(dividing in two equal parts) the line segment AB.

Or

|AC| = |CB|

Angle Formed by Two Chords= 1/2 (Sum of Intercepted Arcs)

105 = 1/2 (120+x)

210 = 120+x

Subtract 120 from each side;

210-120 = x

90 =x

Hence, the value of  Intercepted Arcs x will be 90. so option C is correct.

The true length of recovery for patients with knee surgery is normally distributed with a mean of 123 days and a standard deviation of 1 day. What proportion of the patients will recover between 121 and 124 days?

Answers

Answer:

0.81859

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the length of recovery days for patients with knee surgery is normally distributed with :

Mean, μ = 123 days

Standard deviation, σ = 1 day

The proportion of patients that will recover with 121 and 124 days :

We obtain the Probability of Z score :

Z = (x - μ) / σ

P(Z < (x - μ) / σ) < Z < P(Z < (x - μ) / σ)

P(Z < (121 - 123) / 1) < Z < P(Z < (124 - 123) / 1)

P(Z < - 2) < Z < P(Z < 1)

Using the normal distribution table :

P(Z < 1) - P(Z < - 2)

0.84134 - 0.02275

The domain and range for function g are D(−infinity symbol, infinity symbol) and R(−infinity symbol, infinity symbol). Describe the following statement:

the limit as x approaches 3 of the function g of x equals 4

Select one:
a. The value of g at 3 is 4.
b. The value of g at 4 is 3.
c. As x gets closer to 4, the value of g gets closer to 3.
d. As x gets closer to 3, the value of g gets closer to 4.

Answers

The answer is d: As x gets closer to 3, the value of g gets closer to 4.

The limit of a function h of x as  x approaches the value a, written as [tex]\lim_{x \to a} h(x) = L[/tex] is the value the function h(x) approaches as x tends to the value "a", written as x → a. In this case, L.

Given the domain and range for function g are D(−∞, ∞) and R(−∞, ∞) and that the limit as x approaches 3 of the function g of x equals 4.

This implies that as x gets closer and closer to 3, the value of g gets closer and closer to 4.

Since the value g gets closer to is 3 as x gets closer to 4, we can write that the limit as x approaches 3 of the function g of x equals 4.

we can write this as

[tex]\lim_{x \to 3} g(x) = 4[/tex]

So, as x gets closer to 3, the value of g gets closer to 4.

So, the answer is d: As x gets closer to 3, the value of g gets closer to 4.
