Construct an equation for the expression: 3 less than 2 times a number is 7. Show the solution to the equation and prove your solution to be true through your work.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2x - 3 = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation:

2x - 3 = 7

-------------------------

Solution:

Add 3 to both sides

2x = 10

Divide bothsides by 2

x = 5

-------------------------------

Proof

2x - 3 = 7

plug in x = 5

2(5) - 3 = 7

10 - 3 = 7

7 = 7

What conditions in the nucleus are likely to result in an atom that is unstable?
A. When the attraction of the electrostatic force is greater than the
repulsion of the strong force
B. When the repulsion of the electrostatic force is greater than the
attraction of the strong force
C. When the attraction of the electrostatic force is greater than the
attraction of the strong force
D. When the repulsion of the electrostatic force is weaker than the
repulsion of the strong force

Answers

Answer: D. When the attraction of the strong force is weaker than the repulsion of the electrostatic force

Step-by-step explanation: An atom is stable if the forces among the particles that makeup the nucleus are balanced. An atom is unstable (radioactive) if these forces are unbalanced; if the nucleus has an excess of internal energy. Instability of an atom's nucleus may result from an excess of either neutrons or protons.

Find the length of chord AB. Assume the graph is scaled by ones. Give exact and
approximate answers. Round to the nearest hundredth.
O sqrt(34); 5.83 units
O sqrt(24): 4.90 units
O sqrt(26): 5.10 units
O sqrt(10): 3.16 units

Answers

Answer: Choice C

exact length = sqrt(26) units

approximate length = 5.10 units  

=======================================================

Work Shown:

We can use the distance formula.

A = (x1,y1) = (2,2)

B = (x2,y2) = (1,-3)

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(2-1)^2 + (2-(-3))^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(2-1)^2 + (2+3)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(1)^2 + (5)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{1 + 25}\\\\d = \sqrt{26}\\\\d \approx 5.0990195\\\\d \approx 5.10\\\\[/tex]

The distance from A to B is exactly sqrt(26) units which approximates to 5.10 units. This distance represents the length of chord AB.

A market researcher would like to know how much time the average college student spends watching sports. Suppose he does a preliminary study based upon a sample of 25 college students. The mean amount of time spent watching sports, by those in the sample, is 90 minutes per day with a standard deviation of 15 minutes per day.
(a) Which of the following numbers gives the value of the point estimate?
a. 15.
b. 25.
c. 90.
d. 0.
e. 95.
(b) Using the information given above, calculate the margin of error (in minutes) of the point estimate. Assume we would like to estimate the population mean with 95% confidence.
(c) Suppose that the researcher is not content with the current margin of error. He would like the margin of error of the point estimate to be no more than 4 minutes with 95% confidence. The researcher is unwilling to trust that the sample standard deviation from his previous study accurately estimates the true population standard deviation. He does, however, know that college students tend to watch sports between 0 and 120 minutes per day. What is the minimum sample size needed to obtain this amount of precision?

Answers

Answer:

a)  c. 90.

b) The margin of error of the point estimate is of 6.19 minutes.

c) The minimum sample size needed to obtain this amount of precision is 289.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Which of the following numbers gives the value of the point estimate?

The value of the point estimate is the sample mean, of 90 minutes. So the answer is given by option c.

(b) Using the information given above, calculate the margin of error (in minutes) of the point estimate. Assume we would like to estimate the population mean with 95% confidence.

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that 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 = 25 - 1 = 24

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 24 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0639.

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.

Here, we have [tex]s = 15, n = 25[/tex]. So

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 2.0639\frac{15}{\sqrt{25}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 6.19[/tex]

The margin of error of the point estimate is of 6.19 minutes.

Question c:

College students tend to watch sports between 0 and 120 minutes per day, which means that the standard deviation for population can be estimated as the standard deviation of an uniform distribution with [tex]a = 0, b = 120[/tex]. This standard deviation is:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{(b-a)^2}{12}}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{(120-0)^2}{12}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = 34.64[/tex]

Minimum sample size:

Now, since we have an estimate for the standard deviation of the population, we use the z-distribution.

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 Ztable as such z has a pvalue 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.

The minimum sample size is n for which M = 4. So

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

[tex]4 = 1.96\frac{34.64}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]4\sqrt{n} = 1.96*34.64[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*34.64}{4}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*34.64}{4})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 288.1[/tex]

Rounding up:

The minimum sample size needed to obtain this amount of precision is 289.

A
I A. Equilateral
B. Right
C. Acute
I D. Isosceles
O E Obtuse
O F. Scalene

Answers

Answer:

A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle given has three equal sides and three equal angles.

Since the sum of a triangle = 180°, therefore, each angle equals 60°

Thus, we can conclude that the triangle is an acute triangle because an acute triangle has all three sides measuring less than 90°. This implies that all it's angles are acute angles.

Also, since all its sides are equal and the same as well as it's three angles, based on this, we can equally say the triangle is an equilateral triangle.

The triangle can be referred to as an acute triangle and also as an equilateral triangle.

Answers

Complete question is;

A leasing firm claims that the mean number of miles driven annually, u , in its leased cars is less than 12800 miles. A random sample of 50 cars leased from this firm had a mean of 12499 annual miles driven. It is known that the population standard deviation of the number of miles driven in cars from this firm is 3140 miles. Is there support for the firm's claim at the 0.05 level of significance?

type of test statistic?

value of the test statistic?

the p-value?

Can we support the leasing firm’s claim that the mean number of miles driven annually is less than 12800 miles?

Answer:

A) Null hypothesis; μ ≥ 12800

Alternative hypothesis; μ < 12800

B) type of test statistic: z-score test

C) test statistic; z = -0.678

D) p - value = 0.2489

E) No, we can't support the leasing firms claim

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Population mean; μ = 12800 miles

Sample mean; x¯ = 12499 miles

Sample size; n = 50

Population standard deviation; σ = 3140

Let's define the hypothesis;

Null hypothesis; μ ≥ 12800

Alternative hypothesis; μ < 12800

The alternative hypothesis is the claim.

Since sample size is greater than 30, we will use z-score test.

Formula for z-score;

z = (x¯ - μ)/(σ/√n)

z = (12499 - 12800)/(3140/√50)

z = -0.678

From online p-value from z-score calculator attached, using z = -0.678 with one tailed hypothesis and significance value of 0.05,we have;

p - value = P(z < -0.678) = 0.2489

The p-value is greater than the significance value, so we will fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no sufficient information to support the leasing firm's claim
