Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x = 10.....there are 2 ways to solve this....u can either divide by 2 on both sides, or multiply by 1/2 on both sides. However, the inverse operation would be the dividing by 2 because it is the inverse of multiplying.

so ur answer is : divide by 2 on both sides

You are in charge of a crew that inspects cars. Each car takes approximately 1/2 hour for 1 person to inspect. The normal crew h

jonny [76]

Answer:

Each inspectors NEEDS to work 20 hours in order to review 320 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of time taken to inspect 1 car = 1/2 hr = 0.5 hr

The total people in crew are supposed to be 10

But 2 people are MISSING.

So, the total number of present people in crew = 10 - 2= 8

The total number of cars to be inspected = 320 cars.

Since each car takes 0.5 hour to be reviewed.

So, the time required to review 320 cars = 320 x 05 = 160 hours.

So, the total hours needed to inspect all 320 cars = 160 hours

Now,as there are total 8 crew members.

$\implies \textrm{The number of hours each inspector needs to work} = \frac{\textrm{Total working hours needed}}{\textrm{Toal number of inspectors}} \\= \frac{160}{8} = 20$

Hence , each inspectors NEEDS to work 20 hours in order to review 320 cars.

Find all points on the circle (x^2) + (y^2) = 676 where the slope is 5/12

borishaifa [10]

Implicit defferentation

remember that dy/dx y= dy/dx

so
take derivitive of both sides
$2x+2y \space\ \frac{dy}{dx}=0$
solve for $\frac{dy}{dx}$
minus 2x both sides
$2y \space\ \frac{dy}{dx}=-2x$
divide both sides by 2y
$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{-2x}{2y}$
$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{-x}{y}$

when is the slope equal to $\frac{5}{12}$
solve for $\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{5}{12}$
$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{5}{12}$
$\frac{5}{12}=\frac{-x}{y}$
$5y=-12x$
$y=\frac{-12}{5}x$
find where the circle and this line intersects

substitute $\frac{-12}{5}x$ for y
$x^2+(\frac{-12}{5}x)^2=676$
$x^2+\frac{144}{25}x^2=676$
$\frac{25}{25}x^2+\frac{144}{25}x^2=676$
$\frac{169}{25}x^2=676$
times both sides by $\frac{25}{169}$
$x^2=100$
sqrt both sides, take positive and negative roots
x=+/-10

sub back

$y=\frac{-12}{5}x$
$y=(\frac{-12}{5})(10) \space\ or \space\ (\frac{-12}{5})(-10)$
$y=\frac{-120}{5} \space\ or \space\ \frac{120}{5}$
$y=-24 \space\ or \space\ 24$

the points are (10,-24) and (-10,24)

Ms. Canciano was putting ribbon around a bulletim broard. She used 28 inches of ribbon to go all the way around and knew that th

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

48 sq inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Ribbon used around a bulletin broard is 28 inches

The length of her board is 6 inches

Let B is breadth of her board. 28 inches is perimeter. The perimeter of rectangle is given by :

P = 2(L+B)

28=2(6+B)

14=6+B

B=8 inches

The area of a rectangle is given by :

A = L×B

A = 8×6

A=48 sq inches

So, the area of her board is 48 sq inches

Assume that you plan to use a significance level of α = 0.05 to test the claim that p1 = p2. Use the given sample sizes and numb

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

The calculated value Z = 3.775 > 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance

Null hypothesis is rejected

The Two Population proportion are not equal

Step-by-step explanation:

Given first sample size n₁ = 677

First sample proportion

$p^{-} _{1} = \frac{x_{1} }{n_{1} } = \frac{172}{677} = 0.254$

Given second sample size n₂ = 3377

second sample proportion

$p^{-} _{2} = \frac{x_{2} }{n_{2} } = \frac{654}{3377} = 0.1936$

Null Hypothesis : H₀ : p₁ = p₂.

Alternative Hypothesis : H₁ : p₁ ≠ p₂.

Test statistic

$Z = \frac{p_{1} ^{-}-p^{-} _{2} }{\sqrt{P Q(\frac{1}{n_{1} } +\frac{1}{n_{2} }) } }$

where

$P = \frac{n_{1} p_{1} + n_{2} p_{2} }{n_{1}+n_{2} } = \frac{677 X 0.254+3377 X 0.1936}{677+3377}$

P = 0.2036

Q = 1 - P = 1 - 0.2036 = 0.7964

$Z = \frac{0.254- 0.1936 }{\sqrt{0.2036 X 0.7964(\frac{1}{677 } +\frac{1}{3377 }) } }$

Z = 3.775

Critical value ∝=0.05

Z- value = 1.96

The calculated value Z = 3.775 > 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance

Null hypothesis is rejected

The Two Population proportion are not equal
