Given: -3(2x + 7) = -29 – 4x; Prove: x = 4

Bones Brothers & Associates prepare individual tax returns. Over prior years, Bones Brothers have maintained careful records

madreJ [45]

Answer:

For this case we have the following info related to the time to prepare a return

$\mu =90 , \sigma =14$

And we select a sample size =49>30 and we are interested in determine the standard deviation for the sample mean. From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

And the standard deviation would be:

$\sigma_{\bar X} =\frac{14}{\sqrt{49}}= 2$

And the best answer would be

b. 2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

Solution to the problem

For this case we have the following info related to the time to prepare a return

$\mu =90 , \sigma =14$

Consider the function represented by the equation y-6x-9=0. Which answer shows the equation written in function notation with x

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

A. f(x) = 6x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

y - 6x - 9 = 0

We have to write this equation in function notation with x as the independent variable. This means that y will be replaced by f(x) and all other terms will be carried to the other side of the equation to get the desired function notation.

y - 6x - 9 = 0

y = 6x + 9

f(x) = 6x + 9

Therefore, option A gives the correct answer.

Landon babysits and works part time at tge water park over the summer. onw week, he babysat for 3 hours and worked at the water

Tems11 [23]

B = hourly rate for babysitting and w = hourly rate for working at water park

3b + 10w = 109...multiply by -8
8b + 12w = 177...multiply by 3
----------------------
-24b - 80w = - 872 (result of multiplying by -8)
24b + 36w = 531 (result of multiplying by 3)
---------------------add
- 44w = - 341
w = -341/-44
w = 7.75 <=== hourly rate for working at water park

3b + 10w = 109
3b + 10(7.75) = 109
3b + 77.50 = 109
3b = 109 - 77.50
3b = 31.50
b = 31.50/3
b = 10.50 <== hourly rate for babysitting
