After solving $\frac{5}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}x=13\frac{1}{3}+\frac{8}{3}x$ we get value of x = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the fractions and find value of x.

The given fraction is:

$\frac{5}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}x=13\frac{1}{3}+\frac{8}{3}x$

Solving:

$\frac{5}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}x=13\frac{1}{3}+\frac{8}{3}x\\\frac{5}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}x=\frac{40}{3}+\frac{8}{3}x\\ Subtract\,\,\frac{8}{3}x\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides:\\ \frac{5}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{8}{3}x=\frac{40}{3}+\frac{8}{3}x-\frac{8}{3}x\\Simplifying:\\ \frac{5x+1x-8x}{3}=\frac{40}{3}\\ \frac{-2x}{3}=\frac{40}{3}\\Multiply\,\,both\,\,sides\,\,by\,\,3\\-2x=40\\x=\frac{40}{-2}\\x=-20$

So, After solving $\frac{5}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}x=13\frac{1}{3}+\frac{8}{3}x$ we get value of x = -20

ycow [4]

Question 1

Total budget = 180 + 475 + 15 + 50 + 65 + 25 + 150 + 30 = $990
Real spending = 182 + 475 + 12 + 65 + 68 + 12.50 + 150 + 36 = $1000.5

Mae Green didn't stay within the allocated budget

Question 2

Eleanor:
Income = 380.48
Spending = 16.50

Peter:
Income = 120 + 13.65 + 100 = 233.65

Total income = 233.65 + 380.48 - 16.50 = 597.63

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question 3

Total spent = 540 + 48.55 + 34.15 + 12.80 + 18.95 + 38.60 + 2 + 6.50 = 701.55

A company claims that its tablet computers have an average recharge time of 3 hours. Using a random sample of 50 company tablet

kondor19780726 [428]

Solution:

The Statement made by company about it's tablet computer,

Average recharge time = 3 Hours

As, to check whether the company claim is illegal or true

A random sample of 50 company tablet computers, and their recharging time is noted.

As, we have taken random sample , so standard deviation will come into consideration whether company claim is true or false.

Mean recharge time of 50 company tablet computers= 2.5 hours

Standard deviation of 50 company tablet computers= 0.3 hours

So, Mean standard deviation =

$2.5 \pm0.3\\\\ 2.5 -0.3 \leq {\text{Mean standard deviation}}\leq 2.5+0.3\\\\ 2.2\leq {\text{Mean standard deviation}}\leq 2.8$

So, Claim made by company , that its tablet computers have an average recharge time of 3 hours is Approximately true.

As , there is fluctuation of (3 hours - 2.2 hours =3-2.12=48 minutes ) and (3 hours -2.8 hours=3-2.48=12 minutes), which is not so much ,so we can believe on this company and buy the product (that is tablet computers) of this company.
