Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll just work on solving both so you can see what's involved in solving an absolute value equation. Because an absolute value is a distance, we can have that distance being both to the right on the number line of the number in question or to the left. For example, from 2 on the number line, the numbers that are 5 units away are 7 and -3. Using that logic, we will simplify the equation down so we can set up the 2 basic equations needed to solve for x.
If 
then
What you need to remember here is that you cannot distribute into a set of absolute values like you would a set of parenthesis. The -2 needs to be divided away:
Now we can set up the 2 main equations for this which are
.5x + 1.5 = .5 and .5x + 1.5 = -.5
Knowing that an absolute value will never equal a negative number (because absolute values are distances and distances will NEVER be negative), once we remove the absolute value signs we can in fact state that the expression on the left can be equal to a negative number on the right, like in the second equation above.
Solving the first one:
.5x = -1 so
x = -2
Solving the second one:
.5x = -2 so
x = -4
Answer:
a) Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
b) 
(1)
Replacing we got:
The p value for this case would be given by:
c) For this case we see that the p value is higher than the significance level of 0.05 so then we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true proportion workers belonged to unions is significantly higher than 11.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
Information given
n=400 represent the random sample taken
X=52 represent the workers belonged to unions
estimated proportion of workers belonged to unions
is the value that we want to test
represent the significance level
Confidence=95% or 0.95
z would represent the statistic
represent the p value
Part a
We want to test if the true proportion of interest is higher than 0.113 so then the system of hypothesis are.:
Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
Part b
The statistic is given by:
(1)
Replacing we got:
The p value for this case would be given by:
Part c
For this case we see that the p value is higher than the significance level of 0.05 so then we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true proportion workers belonged to unions is significantly higher than 11.3%
The answer is C.(There are 8 bacteria cells after 15 minutes.)
Answer:
The correct option is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
The non parallel sides of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent.
The image of an isosceles trapezoid is same as the preimage of isosceles trapezoid if
1. Reflection across a line joining the midpoints of parallel sides.
2. Rotation by 360° about its center.
3. Rotation by 360° about origin.
If we rotate the trapezoid by 180° about its center, then the parallel sides will interchanged.
If we reflect the trapezoid across a diagonal, then the resultant figure will be a parallelogram.
If we reflect across a line joining the midpoints of the nonparallel sides, then the parallel sides will interchanged.
After rotation by 360° about the center, we always get an onto figure.
Therefore option 4 is correct.
Answer:
x=21/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. combine like terms
-4+-7= -11 3x-2x=x
2. subtract x
5x-11=x+10
4x-11=10
3. add 11
4x=21
4. divide 21 by 4 = 21/4
