Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides by 3
3 (2x + 5)/3 = 3/3
Simplify
2x + 5 = 1
Subtract 5 from both sides
2x + 5 - 5 = 1 - 5
Simplify
2x = -4
Divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = -4/2
Simplify: 2x/2
Divide the numbers: 2/2 = 1
= x
Simplify: -4/2
Apply the fraction rule: -1/b = -a/b
= - 4/2
Divide the numbers: 4/2 = 2
= -2
x = -2
Instructions: The polygons in each pair are similar. Find the
missing side length.
Answer:
missing side length is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
similar means that all correlating pairs of sides have the same ratio (old side length) / (new side length).
so, when we know the ratio of one pair, we can apply it to any other side to calculate the correlating side.
we see, when we go from small to large, that we have the ratio 32/40 = 4/5.
so, multiplying the larger side by this, we get the shorter side.
15 × 4/5 = 3 × 4 = 12
the proportion part in your picture is a bit confusing :
yes,
x/15 = 32/40 = 32/40
I don't know, why this last expression was repeated.
x/15 = 32/40
x = 15×32/40 = 15×4/5 = 3×4 = 12
as you see we get of course the same result doing it that way.

Among various ethnic groups, the standard deviation of heights is known to be approximately three inches. We wish to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean height of male Swedes. Forty-eight mile Swedes are surveyed. The sample mean is 71 inches. The sample standard deviation is 2.8 inches.
Required:
a. Calculate the error bound.
b. What will happen to the level of confidence obtained if 1,000 male Swedes are surveyed instead of 48? Why?
Answer:
a) The error bound of the confidence interval is of 0.66.
b) The confidence interval will be narrower.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question a:
We have to find the margin of error. Considering that we have the standard deviation for the sample, the t-distribution is used.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 71 - 1 = 70
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 70 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 1.9944
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
For this problem, [tex]s = 2.8, n = 71[/tex]. So
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.9944\frac{2.8}{\sqrt{71}} = 0.66[/tex]
The error bound of the confidence interval is of 0.66.
b. What will happen to the level of confidence obtained if 1,000 male Swedes are surveyed instead of 48? Why?
The margin of error is inversely proportional to the square root of the sample size, so increasing the sample size leads to a smaller margin of error and a narrower confidence interval.
Lament has a jar containing 6 red chips, 10 blue chips, and 4 yellow chips. If he removes one chip at random, what is the probability that it will not be red?
The probability of not getting red is 7/10
What is probability?The area of mathematics known as probability deals with numerical representations of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true. An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes certainty.
Given
Your bowl has 20 chips. (4+10+6).
6 of them are red. 6/20 = 3/10
so the odds of getting a red chip are 3/10 ,
meaning the odds against getting red are 1-(3/10) = 7/10

A telephone service representative believes that the proportion of customers completely satisfied with their local telephone service is different between the South and the Midwest. The representative's belief is based on the results of a survey. The survey included a random sample of 1300 southern residents and 1380 midwestern residents. 39% of the southern residents and 50% of the midwestern residents reported that they were completely satisfied with their local telephone service. Find the 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions. Step 1 of 3 : Find the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval
Answer:
The point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 0.11.
The 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0856, 0.1344).
Step-by-step explanation:
Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.
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.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
Midwest:
50% of 1380, so:
[tex]p_M = 0.5[/tex]
[tex]s_M = \sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{1380}} = 0.0135[/tex]
South:
39% of 1300, so:
[tex]p_S = 0.39[/tex]
[tex]s_S = \sqrt{\frac{0.39*0.61}{1300}} = 0.0135[/tex]
Distribution of the difference:
[tex]p = p_M - p_S = 0.5 - 0.39 = 0.11[/tex]
So the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 0.11.
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_M^2+s_S^2} = \sqrt{0.0135^2+0.0135^2} = 0.0191[/tex]
Confidence interval:
[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
80% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.2[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.2}{2} = 0.9[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.28[/tex].
The lower bound of the interval is:
[tex]p - zs = 0.11 - 1.28*0.0191 = 0.0856[/tex]
The upper bound of the interval is:
[tex]p + zs = 0.11 + 1.28*0.0191 = 0.1344[/tex]
The 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0856, 0.1344).

A cricket bat is bought for $330. Later, it is sold with a loss of 15%.
How much is the oricket bat sold for?
After selling the cricket bat, how much money has been last?
Give your answer to two decimal places because it is a currency.
Answers:
Discount price = 280.50 dollarsAmount lost = 49.50 dollars================================================
Explanation:
If it's sold at a loss of 15%, then the store owner loses 0.15*330 = 49.50 dollars
So it was sold for 330- 49.50 = 280.50 dollars
----------------------------
An alternative method:
If the store owner loses 15%, then they keep the remaining 85% since 15%+85% = 100%.
85% of 330 = 280.50 dollars is the discount price
This means 330-280.50 = 49.50 dollars is the amount lost.

Answer:
185°
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle internal angle at Y is 145° -45° = 100°. Since the triangle is isosceles, the internal angles at X and Z are both (180° -100°)/2 = 40°. Then the bearing of Z from X is the bearing of Y from X less the internal angle at X:
(45° +180°) -40° = 185°.
Z from X is 185°.

3.1.1) Determine the values of x in the interval [0 ; 90] for whichthe sequence will be arithmetic.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
In an arithmetic sequence, any given term is the average of the two terms that come before and after. The middle term of this sequence must be ...
2sin(3x) = (-11 +15)/2
sin(3x) = 1 . . . . . . . . . . simplify and divide by 2
Then the value of 3x must be 90°, so ...
x = 90/3 = 30
There is one value of x in the interval [0, 90] that makes this sequence arithmetic: x = 30.

A local cinema reduced its ticket prices by 15% which means a ticket now costs £10.88. how much was a ticket before the reduction?
Help with 5b please . thank you.
Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given f(x)=ln(1+x)-x+(1/2)x^2.
We are first ask to differentiate this.
We will need chain rule for first term and power rule for all three terms.
f'(x)=(1+x)'/(1+x)-(1)+(1/2)×2x
f'(x)=(0+1)/(1+x)-(1)+x
f'(x)=1/(1+x)-(1)+x
We are then ask to prove if x is positive then f is positive.
I'm thinking they want us to use the derivative part in our answer.
Let's look at the critical numbers.
f' is undefined at x=-1 and it also makes f undefined.
Let's see if we can find when expression is 0.
1/(1+x)-(1)+x=0
Find common denominator:
1/(1+x)-(1+x)/(1+x)+x(1+x)/(1+x)=0
(1-1-x+x+x^2)/(1+x)=0
A fraction can only be zero when it's numerator is.
Simplify numerator equal 0:
x^2=0
This happens at x=0.
This means the expression,f, is increasing or decreasing after x=0. Let's found out what's happening there. f'(1)=1/(1+1)-(1)+1=1/2 which means after x=0, f is increasing since f'>0 after x=0.
So we should see increasing values of f when we up the value for x after 0.
Plugging in 0 gives: f(0)=ln(1+0)-0+(1/2)0^2=0.
So any value f, after this x=0, should be higher than 0 since f(0)=0 and f' told us f in increasing after x equals 0.

Determine a scalar c so that the angle between a = i + cj and b = i + j is 45°.
Answer:
c=0
Step-by-step explanation:
ATQ a.b=|a||b|sin(45)
1+c=sqrt(1+c^2)*sqrt(2)*1/sqrt(2)
1+c=sqrt(1+c^2)
(1+c)^2=(1+c^2)
2c=0, c=0
The required simplified value of c is zero for which the angle between a and b is 45°.
What is a vector?Vector is defined as the quantities that have both magnitude and direction are called a vector quantity and the nature of the quantity is called a vector.
Here,
scaler product is given as,
a . b = |a|.|b|cos45
(i + cj). (i + j) = √[1² + c²] . √[1²+1²] × 1/√2
1 + c = √1 + c²
Squaring both sides
(1 + c)² = 1 + c²
1 + c² + 2c =1 + c²
2c = 0
c = 0
Thus, the required simplified value of c is zero for which the angle between a and b is 45°.

Ivan drove 335 miles in 5 hours.
At the same rate, how long would it take him to drive 737 miles?
hours
Х
?
Answer: x= 11
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer the question, we first need to know how many miles he/she/it can drive in one hour (to make it simpler. Doing a bunch of calculations involving decimals and other stuff can be very confusing)
335 divided by 5 is 67
Therefore in one hour Ivan can drive 67 miles. We want to know the TIME it takes for Ivan to drive 737 miles and the formula for time is Distance / Speed.
The distance is 737 miles
The speed is 67 miles/hour
737 divided by 67 is 11
Therefore Ivan takes 11 hours to drive 737 hours
