20x+x-2=4 rational equation​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

20x + x - 2 = 4

Step 2: Solve for x

Combine like terms: 21x - 2 = 4Add 2 to both sides: 21x = 6Divide both sides by 21: x = 6/21Simplify: x = 2/7

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

20(2/7) + 2/7 - 2 = 4

40/7 + 2/7 - 2 = 4

42/7 - 2 = 4

6 - 2 = 4

4 = 4

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Collect like terms:

20x + x = 21x ----> 21x - 2= 4

Move the constant to the right hand side and change the sign of the constant:

21x = 4 + 2

Calculate:

21x = 4 + 2 ---> 21x = 6

Divide both sides by 21:

21/21 and 6/21 = 2/7

Solution:

x = 2/7 or x= 0.285714

Think of a problem that you may be interested in that deals with a comparison of two population means. Propose either a confidence interval or a hypothesis test question that compares these two means. Gather appropriate data and post your problem (without a solution) in the discussion topic. Later, respond to your own post with the solution for others to check their work. For example, you may want to know if the average weight of a rippled potato chip is the same as the average weight of a non-rippled potato chip. You may weigh rippled regular potato chips fro m a large bag and find weights of 1.7,1.9,2.4,1.3, 1.7, and 2.0 grams. You may weigh non-rippled potato chips from another larg bag and find weights of 1.8, 1.6,1.9, 1.9, and 1.4 grams. Assume a random sample was drawn. Think of a problem that you may be interested in that deals with a comparison of two population proportions. Propose either a confidence interval or a hypothesis test question that compares these two proportions. Gather appropriate data and post your problem (without a solution) in the discussion topic. Later, respond to your own post with your own solution. For example, you may believe that the proportion of adults in California who are vegetarians is more than the proportion of adults in New Hampshire who are vegetarians. In two independent polls, you may find that 109 out of 380 California residents are vegetarians and 39 out of 205 New Hampshire residents are vegetarians. For your response to a classmate (two responses required, one in each option), solve your classmate's confidence interval or hypothesis test problem, using a significance level not previously used Make sure that you use appropriate terminology and specify whether you are using the classical method or the p-value method.

Decision rule

 Fail to reject the null hypothesis

Conclusion

There is no sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of residents in California who are vegetarians is higher than the proportion in New Hampshire who are vegetarian  

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are going to consider this question

For example, you may believe that the proportion of adults in California who are vegetarians is more than the proportion of adults in New Hampshire who are vegetarians. In two independent polls, you may find that 109 out of 380 California residents are vegetarians and 39 out of 205 New Hampshire residents are vegetarians.

Here we are going to be solving the hypothesis test problem and we will be making use of the p-value method

From the question the we are told that

     The first sample size is  [tex]n_1 = 380[/tex]

       The second sample size is [tex]n_2 = 205[/tex]

       The number of California residents that are vegetarian is [tex]k = 109[/tex]

       The number of New Hampshire resident that are veterinarian is [tex]u = 39[/tex]

Generally the sample proportion for California residents is

      [tex]\^ p_1 = \frac{k}{n_1}[/tex]

=> [tex]\^ p_1 =\frac{109}{380}[/tex]

=> [tex]\^ p_1 =  0.2868 [/tex]

Generally the sample proportion for New Hampshire residents is

     [tex]\^ p_2 = \frac{39}{205}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\^ p_2 = 0.1902 [/tex]  

The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o  :  p_1 -p_2 = 0[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a :  p_1 -p_2 > 0[/tex]

 Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented  as

[tex]t  =  \frac{(\^ p_1 - \^ p_2 ) -0}{\sqrt{ \frac{\^ p_1 (1-\^p_1 )}{n_1}  + \frac{\^ p_2 (1- \^p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex]

=> [tex]t  =  \frac{( 0.2868 - 0.1902) -0}{\sqrt{ \frac{0.2868 (1-0.2868 )}{380}  + \frac{0.1902(1- 0.1902)}{205} } }[/tex]  

=>  [tex]t  =  0.036[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

      [tex]df  =  n_1 + n_2 -2[/tex]

=>    [tex]df  =  380 + 205 -2[/tex]

=>    [tex]df  =  583/tex]

Generally the probability of  [tex]t  =  0.036[/tex] at a degree of freedom of   [tex]df  =  583/tex]  from the t- distribution table is  

      [tex]p-value  =  P(t >  0.036) =  0.48564732[/tex]

Let take the level of significance to be [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

So from the values obtained we see that  [tex]p-value  >  \alpha[/tex] hence the decision rule is  

   Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is

  There is no sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of residents in California who are vegetarians is higher than the proportion in New Hampshire who are vegetarian

Aging workers of the Neotropical termite, Neocapritermes taracua, develop blue crystal containing glands ("backpacks") on their backs, When they fight intruding termites and are hampered, these "blue" termites explode, and the glands spew a sticky liquid (Sobotnik et al. 2012). The following data are from an experiment that measured the toxicity of the blue substance. A single drop of the liquid extracted from blue termites was placed on individuals of a second termite species, Labiotermes labralis, and the number that were immobilized (dead or paralyzed) within 60 minutes was recorded. The frequency of this outcome was compared with a control treatment in which liquid from glands of "white" termites lacking the blue crystals was dropped instead.
Is the blue liquid toxic compared to liquid from white termites?
Liquid source Unharmed Immobilized
Blue workers 3 37
White workers 31 9

Answers

Answer:

Yes blue liquid is toxic

Step-by-step explanation:

H0: p1 = p2

H1: p1>p2

For blue

We calculate proportion as

37/40 = 0.925

For white

9/40 = 0.2250

To get p

(X1 + x2)/(n1 + n2)

= 0.5750

After calculating the z as statistic (please check attachment) I got 6.33

P value = 0.0000

We reject null hypothesis and say in conclusion that enough evidence exists for us to say blu liquid is toxic!

Salena needs to purchase 9 skirts for a new job. her friend, Jamie goes with her each of the skirts costs $41. Salena says that she can find the total cost by multiplying 9 and 4 and adding that to product of 9 and 1. Jamie disagrees and says that she needs to find the product of 9 and 40 and add that to the product of 9 and 1. Who is correct and why?

Answers

Answer:

Jamie is correct. This is because 41 is a combination of 40 and 1. Salena thinks that the 4 is just a 4, however, the 4 is in the tens place, so the 41 without the 1 is 40. The answer to this 41 times 9 is 369. Not 45.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each skirt is $41

Salena needs 9

(9*40) + (9*1)

360   +   9

    $369

diride 660cm in the ratio of 5:6​

Answers

Answer:

Thus, the measure 660 cm is divided into 300 + 360 in the ratio of 5:6

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations

We are required to divide 660 cm in the ratio 5:6, or 5/6.

Let's call:

x = first part of 660

660 - x = second part of 660

The ratio between them is 5/6.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{x}{660-x}=\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

The above equation will result in x as the smaller part of 660.

Multiply by (660-x)*6 to eliminate denominators:

[tex]\displaystyle (660-x)*6\cdot\frac{x}{660-x}=(660-x)*6\cdot\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Operating:

[tex]6x=(660-x)*5[/tex]

[tex]6x=3300-5x[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]6x+5x=3300[/tex]

[tex]11x=3300[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{3300}{11}=300[/tex]

The other part is 660 - 300 = 360

Thus, the measure 660 cm is divided into 300 + 360 in the ratio of 5:6

You are playing a video game. For each diamond you collect, you earn 110 points. You also earn 80 bonus points by completing the level in less than 2 minutes. You need to earn more than 1620 points to continue on to the next level. Write and solve an inequality that represents the numbers d of diamonds you must collect in less than 2 minutes to advance to the next level.

Answers

Answer:

110d + 80 > 1620

d > 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of points from collecting diamonds can be represented by 110d, since you get 110 points for each diamond, d

Add 80 to this to represent the bonus points.

Use a greater than inequality, because you have to get more than 1620 points.

Put this all together:

110d + 80 > 1620

Then, solve for d:

110d + 80 > 1620

110d > 1540

d > 14

So, you have to collect more than 14 diamonds in less than 2 minutes in order to advance to the next level.

At 7:00 one Summer morning Harry and Hermione hopped into their speedy more motorboat and left Hogwarts dock. They arrived at Dumbledore Wharf 35 minutes later. During the busy summer months a car ferry departs from Dumbledore wharf every five minutes. Tourists crowd onto the ferry for the 55 minute ride to Hogswarts dock.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  19

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume that the car ferries start at or before 6:05, and each 5 minutes thereafter, and if we count the ferries at the dock on either end, the total number seen is the number of ferries encountered in ...

  55 +35 = 90 . . . minutes

That is, it is the number already in transit when they leave, plus the number that start while they are traveling.

That's 90/5 +1* = 19 ferries.

_____

The attached diagram can give an idea. Each up-sloping line represents a ferry in-transit. The left side is Dumbledore Wharf; the right side is Hogwarts dock. Each horizontal unit represents the distance traveled by a ferry in 5 minutes. Each vertical unit represents a 5-minute interval.

The down-sloping line represents the motorboat travel. The dots at either end of the latter line represent car ferries that are at the dock, just arriving or just-departing. Altogether, there are 17 places where the lines cross, in addition to the boats at the docks.

__

* the +1 is because the number of points defining intervals is 1 more than the number of intervals.
