X - the number

6x=2x+16 \ \ |\hbox{subtract 2x from both sides} \\
4x=16 \ \ |\hbox{divide both sides by 4} \\
x=4

The number is 4.

A researcher in environmental science is conducting a study to investigate the impact of a particular herbicide on fish. He has
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The herbicide has no impact on fish

Step-by-step explanation:

Experimental research includes to divide the concerned group 'fishes' here into 'treatment' & 'control' group, to study impact of a treatment. Hypothesis test the statistical significance of  propositions. Null hypothesis signifies no impact, alternate hypothesis signifies impact.

Let averages enzyme level of treatment & control be Xt & Xc

  • Null Hypothesis [H0] : Xt = Xc, or Xt - Xc = 0
  • Alternate Hypothesis [H1] : Xt ≠ Xc, or Xt - Xc ≠ 0

If hypothesis test suggests that there is no significant difference between treatment & control group enzyme level, so we reject H0 & accept H1. It implies that the herbicide has no significant impact on fishes enzymes.

The equations 3 x minus 4 y = negative 2, 4 x minus y = 4, 3 x + 4 y = 2, and 4 x + y = negative 4 are shown on the graph below.
stich3 [128]

Answer:

  (–1.4, 1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The blue line and the purple line are the lines corresponding to the equations of interest. Their point of intersection is in the 2nd quadrant, so is nearest to ...

  (–1.4, 1.5)

__

It can be useful to understand that for equations in standard form:

  ax +by = c

the x- and y-intercepts are ...

  • x-intercept: c/a . . . . value of x for y = 0
  • y-intercept: c/b . . . . value of y for x = 0

__

For the equations of interest, the first has intercepts of ...

  x=2/3, y=1/2 . . . . graphed line makes a 1st-quadrant triangle with the axes (blue line)

And the second has intercepts of ...

  x=-1, y=-4 . . . . graphed line makes a 3rd-quadrant triangle with the axes (purple line)

Since the purple line has a steeper slope, the point of intersection of the lines will be in the 2nd quadrant. There is only one 2nd-quadrant answer choice: (-1.4, 1.5).

What is the value of 3 in 630
marysya [2.9K]
We can write 630 in expanded form as:
630 = 600 + 30 + 0
and in words:
630 = 6 hundreds, 3 tens and zero ones
the value 6 is 600
and the place value of 3 is 30 and the face value is 3 in the number 630.

To make a profit, a company’s revenue must be greater than its operating costs. The company’s revenue is modeled by the expressi
myrzilka [38]
Revenue = 7.5x - 100
Operation Costs = 5.8x + 79.86

To break even, operation cost = Revenue
⇒ 7.5x - 100 = 5.8x + 79.86
7.5x = 5.8x + 179.86 (Add 100 to both sides)

7.5x - 5.8x = 179.86
1.7x = 179.86
x = 105.8

This implies that the company will need to sell at least 106 items to make a profit.

The inequality that will determine the number of items at need to be sold to make a profit is x ≥ 106

The solution to the inequality is as follows

Revenue = 7.5x - 100
if x =106
Revenue = 7.5(106) - 100
Revenue = 695

Operational Cost = 5.8x + 79.86
if x = 106
Operational Cost = 5.8(106) + 79.86
Operational Cost = 694.66

Profit ≥ (695 - 694.66)
Profit ≥ 0.34

The company must sell at least 106 items to make a profit.
