For this case we have the following equation:

Step 1 of the solution is to make the distributive property.
We have then:

Step 1 is correct.
The step is to combine similar terms. Caleb wrote:

He wrongly combined the similar terms on the right side of the equation.
The correct solution is:
Answer: In step 2, the like terms were not combined on the right side of the equation.
Let

be the number of hours that the waitress works in the evening.
We know for our problem that she works

in the afternoon and that she works <span>1.75 hours less in the afternoon than in the evening, so:
</span>

<span>Since </span>

, we can rewrite our expression:


We can conclude that she works 3.375 hours in the evening, or expressed as a mixed fraction:

hours.

Answer:
Tonga trench Elevation = 35,702ft
South sandwich trench elevation = 23,737ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following:
Tonga trench Elevation = 35,702 Feets
South sandwich trench elevation = 23,737 Feets
Expressing both numbers as rational numbers :
Both the Tonga trench Elevation and South sandwich trench elevation are already stated as rational numbers because all integers are rational numbers, be it expressed as a quotient or proportion of integer numbers ( that is numbers that are expressed without decimal components.
Therefore, rational expression for both are :
Tonga trench Elevation = 35,702ft
South sandwich trench elevation = 23,737ft
Answer:
0.7743
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean of age = u = 26 years
Standard Deviation =
= 4 years
We need to find the probability that the person getting married is in his or her twenties. This means the age of the person should be between 20 and 30. So, we are to find P( 20 < x < 30), where represents the distribution of age.
Since the data is normally distributed we can use the z distribution to solve this problem. The formula to calculate the z score is:

20 converted to z score will be:

30 converted to z score will be:

So, now we have to find the probability that the z value lies between -1.5 and 1.
P( 20 < x < 30) = P( -1.5 < z < 1)
P( -1.5 < z < 1 ) = P(z < 1) - P(z<-1.5)
From the z-table:
P(z < 1) = 0.8413
P(z < -1.5) =0.067
So,
P( -1.5 < z < 1 ) = 0.8413 - 0.067 = 0.7743
Thus,
P( 20 < x < 30) = 0.7743
So, we can conclude that the probability that a person getting married for the first time is in his or her twenties is 0.7743
