Three more than twice a number is 35.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 16, or if you didn't want the value for x,

2x + 3 = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Three more: +3

Twice a number: 2x

Combined:

2x + 3 = 35.

Get rid of the 3 by subtracting it from both sides:

2x = 32

Get rid of the 2 by dividing it from both sides:

x = 16

Answer 2

Answer:

The number is 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x.

Now we translate the sentence into an equation piece by piece.

Three more than twice a number is 35.

2x

Three more than twice a number is 35.

2x + 3

Three more than twice a number is 35.

2x + 3 = 35

Now we solve the equation.

Subtract 3 from both sides.

2x = 32

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 16

Answer: The number is 16.

P.S. Notice that x was a variable that was introduced solely to solve the problem. The original problem is a word problem, not an equation, and has no x in it. The correct answer makes no reference to x since x was used to solve the equation but is not part of the given problem. The person asking the question has no idea what x is. He just wants a number as an answer.

A large on-demand, video streaming company is designing a large-scale survey to determine the mean amount of time corporate executives watch on-demand television. A small pilot survey of 10 executives indicated that the mean time per week is 12 hours, with a standard deviation of 3 hours. The estimate of the mean viewing time should be within 0.25 hour. The 95% level of confidence is to be used. How many executives should be surveyed? (Use z Distribution Table.)
How many executives should be surveyed? (Round the final answer to the next whole number.)

Answers

Answer:

554 executives should be surveyed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Standard deviation of 3 hours.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 3[/tex]

The 95% level of confidence is to be used. How many executives should be surveyed?

n executives should be surveyed, and n is found with [tex]M = 0.25[/tex]. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.25 = 1.96\frac{3}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.25\sqrt{n} = 1.96*3[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*3}{0.25}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*3}{0.25})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 553.2[/tex]

Rounding up:

554 executives should be surveyed.

A random sample of 16 values is drawn from a mound-shaped and symmetric distribution. The sample mean is 12 and the sample standard deviation is 2. Use a level of significance of 0.05 to conduct a two-tailed test of the claim that the population mean is 11.5.

Answers

Answer:

we conclude that population mean is not 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis :

H0 : μ = 11.5

H1 : μ ≠ 11.5

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

Test statistic = (12 - 11.5) ÷ (2/√(16))

Test statistic = (0.5) ÷ (2 ÷ 4)

Test statistic = 0.5 / 0.5

Test statistic = 1

The Pvalue from test statistic value, df = n - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15

Pvalue = 0.333

Pvalue > α ; we fail to reject the null ; Hence, we conclude that population mean is not 11.5

Young invested GH150,000 and 2.5% per annum simple interest. how long will it take this amount to. yield an interest of GH11,250,00​

Answers

Answer: 3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest is calculated as:

= (P × R × T) / 100

where

P = principal = 150,000

R = rate = 2.5%.

I = interest = 11250

T = time = unknown.

I = (P × R × T) / 100

11250 = (150000 × 2.5 × T)/100

Cross multiply

1125000 = 375000T

T = 1125000/375000

T = 3

The time taken will be 3 years

Question 5 Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)

Bunny Hill Ski Resort charges $35 for ski rental and $10 an hour to ski. Black Diamond Ski Resort charges $40 for ski rental and $5 an hour to ski. Create an equation to determine at what point
the cost of both ski slopes is the same.

Answers

Answer:

Bunny Hill Ski Resort:

y = 10x + 35

Diamond Ski Resort:

y = 5x + 40

Point where the cost is the same:

(1, 45)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question tells us that:

$35 and $40 are initial fees

$10 and $5 are hourly fees

This means that x and y will equal:

x = number of hours

y = total cost of ski rental after a number of hours

So we can form these 2 equations:

y = 10x + 35

y = 5x + 40

Now we are going to use System of Equations to find what point the cost of both ski slopes is the same.

Because they both equal y, we can set the equations equal to each other:

10x + 35 = 5x + 40

And we use basic algebra to solve for x:

10x + 35 = 5x + 40

(subtract 5x from both sides)

5x + 35 = 40

(subtract 35 from both sides)

5x = 5

(divide both sides by 5)

x = 1

Remember, x equals the number of hours.

That means when your rent out the skis for 1 hour, you will get the same price of $45 (you find the price by plugging in 1 into both of the equations)

Answers

Answer:

The price of 1 exercise book is $122.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the price of one exercise book.

y is the price of one textbook.

Total cost of 10 exercise books and 2 textbooks is $1400.00.

This means that:

[tex]10x + 2y = 1400[/tex]

Since we want x:

[tex]2y = 1400 - 10x[/tex]

[tex]y = 700 - 5x[/tex]

One also finds the total cost of 3 textbooks and 30 exercise books is $3000.

This means that:

[tex]3x + 30y = 3000[/tex]

Since [tex]y = 700 - 5x[/tex]

[tex]3x + 30(700 - 5x) = 3000[/tex]

[tex]3x + 21000 - 150x = 3000[/tex]

[tex]147x = 18000[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{18000}{147}[/tex]

[tex]x = 122.45[/tex]

The price of 1 exercise book is $122.45.

Answer:

By these examples you are able to see that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

For examples,

Let's consider squares of 3, 11, 25, 37 and 131.

[tex] {3}^{2} = 9[/tex]

8 is a multiple of 4, and 9 is more than 8.

[tex] {11}^{2} = 121[/tex]

120 is a multiple of 4 and 121 is one more than it.

[tex] {25}^{2} = 625[/tex]

624 is a multiple of 4 and 625 is one more than it.

[tex] {37}^{2} = 1369[/tex]

1368 is a multiple of 4 and 1369 is one more than 1368.

If m and n are positive integers and m^2 - n^2 = 9, which of the following could be the value of

n?

A) 1

B) 16

C) 9

D) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

One approach would be to plug in the choices and see.

If n=1, then we have m^2-1=9.

This would give m^2=10 after adding 1 on both sides. There is no integer m when squared would give us 10. ( Square root of 9 is a decimal )

If n=16, then we would have m^2-256=9.

This would give m^2=265 after adding 256 on both sides. There is no integer m when squared would give us 265. ( Square root of 265 is a decimal )

If n=9, then we would have m^2-81=9.

This would give m^2=90 after adding 81 on both sides. There is no integer m when squared would give us 90. ( Square root of 90 is a decimal )

If n=4, then we would have m^2-16=9.

This would give m^2=25 after adding 16 on both sides. There is an integer m when squared would give us 25. ( Square root of 25 is a 5)

mean arrival λ = 2.5

μ = 6
