Let the number = x

Set up the equation:

3(x-14) = 3

Simplify:

3x -42 = 3

Add 42 to both sides

3x = 45

Divide both sides by3

X = 15

The number is 15

Answer:

15.

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 14) = 3

3x - 42 = 3

3x = 42 + 3 = 45

x = 15.

Round 287.9412 to the nearest tenth. Do not write extra zeros.

goldenfox [79]

Salutations!

Round 287.9412 to the nearest tenth.

Lets solve this!

To round to the nearest tenth, you need to know the tenth place--------

In the number, 287.9412, nine is in the tenth place. You need also make sure whether the number next to 9 is greater than 5 or not.

287.9412 =287.941=287.94=287.9=288=290

Thus, your answer is 290.

Hope I helped.

Q.1 - Adam is ordering pizza for a company party that he needs to have catered. Company A charges $8 for each pizza and a delive

Tasya [4]

Answer:

4. A) $\displaystyle x + 4 ≥ 7$

3. A) $\displaystyle x + 650 ≥ 1500; x ≥ 850$

2. D) $\displaystyle 0,95(9) + 1,25b ≤ 25$

1. C) $\displaystyle 8x + 45 < 12x + 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

4. Two families combined have at least 3 pets.

3. $1500 is your result, so everything else is straightforward simple, knowing that the keywords at least $1500 mean greater than or equal to $1500.

2. Find the correspondents, then determine what inequality to use. In this case, you will use less than or equal to because overpaying is UNNECESSARY.

1. Eight dollars each pizza and twelve dollars each pizza is 12x and 8x. The rest is straightforward simple because you now have your initial costs of $45 and $5, and the exercise tells you that the total charge for Company A is less than the total charge for Company B, therefore you have your answer.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

A random sample of 35 undergraduate students who completed two years of college were asked to take a basic mathematics test. The

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

$(75.1 -72.1) -1.66 \sqrt{\frac{12.8^2}{35} +\frac{14.6^2}{50}}= -1.96$

$(75.1 -72.1) +1.66 \sqrt{\frac{12.8^2}{35} +\frac{14.6^2}{50}}= 7.96$

And the confidence interval would be given by:

$-1.96 \leq \mu_1 -\mu_2 \leq 7.96$

And since the confidence interval contains the value 0 we have enough evidence to conclude that we don't have significant differences between the two means at 10% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given :

$\bar X_1= 75.1$ represent the sample mean for the scores of the undergraduate students

$s_1 = 12.8$ represent the standard deviation for the undergraduate students

$n_1 =35$ the sample size for the undergraduate

$\bar X_2= 72.1$ represent the sample mean for the scores of the high school students

$s_2 = 14.6$ represent the standard deviation for the high school students

$n_2 =50$ the sample size for the high school

The confidence interval for the true difference of means is given by:

$(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2) \pm t_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_1}{n_1} +\frac{s^2_2}{n_2}}$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df=n_1 +n_2 -2= 35+50-2=83$

The confidence level is 90% and the significance level is $\alpha=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ then the critical value would be:

$t_{\alpha/2}= 1.99$

And replacing the info we got:

$(75.1 -72.1) -1.66 \sqrt{\frac{12.8^2}{35} +\frac{14.6^2}{50}}= -1.96$

$(75.1 -72.1) +1.66 \sqrt{\frac{12.8^2}{35} +\frac{14.6^2}{50}}= 7.96$

And the confidence interval would be given by:

$-1.96 \leq \mu_1 -\mu_2 \leq 7.96$

And since the confidence interval contains the value 0 we have enough evidence to conclude that we don't have significant differences between the two means at 10% of significance.
