DE = 4x + 10

EF = 2x -1

DF = DE + EF = 4x + 10 + 2x - 1 = 6x + 9

Given,

DF = 9x - 15

6x + 9 = 9x - 15

3x = 24

x = 8

Hence, DF = 9x - 15 = 9*8 - 15 = 72 - 15 = 57

Hello,
<span>We have that:
(4x+10)+(2x-1)=9x-15

</span>We solve the equation:
4x+10+2x-1=9x-15;
6x+9=9x-15;
6x-9x=-15-9;
-3x=-24;
3x=24;

<span>from which
</span>x=24:3=8

<span>Then:
DF=9x-15=(9</span>×8)-15=72-15=57

bye :-)

An employee at a homemade wooden toy store earned $860 over the past week. The employee needs to pay 14% for Federal Income Tax
kari74 [83]

Answer:

$713.8

Step-by-step explanation:

14%of 860 = 120.4

3% of 860 = 25.8

so, subtract the sum of the above 2 values from 860.

860 - (120.4+25.8) = 860-146.2 = 713.8

Hope this helps

The slope of a line is 2. The y-intercept of the line is –6. Which statements accurately describe how to graph the function?
Ne4ueva [31]
A because (0,-6) is the y-intercept so you start at the point you know. Then because slope is a rise over run fraction the slope can also be written as 2/1 which is rise 2 over 1.

Direct Mailing Company sells computers and computer parts by mail. The company claims that more than 90% of all orders are maile
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

We conclude that less than or equal to 90% of all orders are mailed within 72 hours after they are received which means the company's claim is not true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the company claims that more than 90% of all orders are mailed within 72 hours after they are received. The quality control department at the company often takes samples to check if this claim is valid.

A recently taken sample of 175 orders showed that 161 of them were mailed within 72 hours.

<u><em>Let p = percentage of all orders that are mailed within 72 hours.</em></u>

SO, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p \leq 90%   {means that less than or equal to 90% of all orders are mailed within 72 hours after they are received}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : p > 90%   {means that more than 90% of all orders are mailed within 72 hours after they are received}

The test statistics that will be used here is <u>One-sample z proportion</u> <u>statistics</u>;

                                T.S.  = \frac{\hat p-p}{{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = proportion of orders that were mailed within 72 hours in a sample of 175 =  \frac{161}{175}\times 100  = 92%

           n = sample of orders = 175

So, <u><em>test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{0.92-0.90}{{\sqrt{\frac{0.92(1-0.92)}{175} } } } }

                               =  0.975

The value of the test statistics is 0.975.

<em>Now at 1% significance level, the z table gives critical value of 2.3263 for right-tailed test. Since our test statistics is less than the critical value of z as 0.975 < 2.3263, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which </em><em><u>we fail to reject our null hypothesis</u></em><em>.</em>

Therefore, we conclude that less than or equal to 90% of all orders are mailed within 72 hours after they are received which means the company's claim is not true.
