Solve the equation 3(2x + 2) = 3x − 15.

Answers

Answer 1

Hi there! :)

Answer:

x = -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with:

3(2x + 2) = 3x - 15

Begin by distributing '3' with the terms inside of the parenthesis:

3(2x) + 3(2) = 3x - 15

Simplify:

6x + 6 = 3x - 15

Isolate the variable by subtracting '3x' from both sides:

6x - 3x + 6 = 3x - 3x - 15

3x + 6 = -15

Subtract 6 from both sides:

3x + 6 - 6 = -15 - 6

3x = -21

Divide both sides by 3:

3x/3 = -21/3

x = -7.

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x+2) = 3x - 15

First, we should simplify on the left side.

6x + 6 = 3x - 15 ; Now we subtract six from both sides.

      -6          -6

6x = 3x - 21 ; next we just subtract 3x from both sides.

-3x   -3x

3x = -21

Finally, we divide 3 from both sides to separate the three from the x.

x = -7

Hope this helps!! <3 :)

A child weighing 22.5 kg has an IV order for Vancomycin Calculate the q8h per dose dosage if the label states that
the total daily intravenous dosage is 40 mg/kg of body weight.

Answers

Answer:

q8h dosage = 112.5mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Child Weight = 22.5 kg

Daily Intravenous Dosage = 40mg/kg

Type of Dose = q8h

Required

Calculate the q8h per dose

We start by calculating the total daily dosage in mg

This is calculated by multiplying the child weight by the intravenous dosage

Daily Dosage = 22.5kg * 40mg/kg

Daily Dosage = 900mg

This implies that the body weight requires 900 mg daily

Next is to calculate the q8h dosage

q8h means every 8 hours.

q8h dosage = 900mg/8

q8h dosage = 112.5mg

The matrix is

-18

Answer:

The value of X will be the following :

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}-20\\ -5\\ -18\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So as you can tell, through substitution the equation for this problem will be as follows,

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}1&-4&-2\\ \:-2&2&5\\ \:\:\:\:\:2&-4&-2\end{bmatrix}^{^{^{^{-1}}}}\cdot \:X\:=\:\begin{bmatrix}2\\ \:\:7\\ \:-3\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Therefore to isolate X, we have to multiply the inverse of the inverse of the co - efficient of X on either side, such that X = A [tex]*[/tex] B,

[tex]X = A * B = \begin{bmatrix}1&-4&-2\\ \:\:-2&2&5\\ \:\:\:2&-4&-2\end{bmatrix}^{\:}\begin{bmatrix}2\\ 7\\ \:-3\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

To solve for X we can multiply the rows of the first matrix by the respective columns of the second matrix,

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}1&-4&-2\\ -2&2&5\\ 2&-4&-2\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}2\\ 7\\ -3\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}1\cdot \:2+\left(-4\right)\cdot \:7+\left(-2\right)\left(-3\right)\\ \left(-2\right)\cdot \:2+2\cdot \:7+5\left(-3\right)\\ 2\cdot \:2+\left(-4\right)\cdot \:7+\left(-2\right)\left(-3\right)\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}-20\\ -5\\ -18\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]X = \begin{bmatrix}-20\\ -5\\ -18\end{bmatrix}[/tex] - if this matrix is matrix 1, matrix 1 will be our solution

A standard I.Q. test produces normally distributed results with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 for the city of New York. Out of approximately 8,400,000 citizens, how many of these people would have I.Q.s below 67?

Answers

Answer:

approx  193200

Step-by-step explanation:

As known for normal distribution is correct the rule 95.4% of the results are situation within mean+-2*s  ( where s is a standard deviation)

So the border is 100+-2*15=70 and that is approx=67.

95.4% of 84000000 citizens are= 8 400 000*0.954=8013600 persons

So the residual number of the citizens =8400000-8013600=386400 citizens

Because of the simmetry of normal distribution to find the number of the citizens that have IQ below 67 we have to divide 386400 by 2.

N=386000/2=193200

explanation:

when we have decimals we are going backward,

therefore "0.00037" would be a negative number

to find the scientific notation form, we have to move the decimal over to the left untill we get 3.7

it took 4 moves to the right to get to 3.7, and since were dealing with decimals it will be negative,

so the first one is 3.7 x 10^4

the second one however is not a decimal so it will be a positive exponent.

now remember that there is always a decimal after a number we might just not see it.

so, going from the very end of the number it takes us 4 moves to the left to get to 3.7

so,

the second one will be 3.7 x 10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4=6/8

6/8-1/8=5/8

So 5/8 of the tank is 15 gallons.  This means each 1/8 of a tank is 3 gallons.

The van is currently 6/8 full. We need to add another 2/8 to completely fill the tank.

C. (8, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find which point is not on the graph, find which set of coordinates makes the equation incorrect.

When plugged into the equation, the point (8, 2) makes it incorrect:

y = 10 + x

2 = 10 + 8

We have given,

Sample size : n= 10

Significance level : [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex]

Test to check determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support a

claim of a linear correlation between two variables is a two tailed test.

Degree of freedom(df) = n- 2=8

Now , by the correlation coefficient(r) table ,

A line passes through A(3,7) and B(-4,9). Find the value of a if C(a, 1) is on the line.

Answers

Answer:  a=24

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets find the line's  formula (equation of the line).

As known the general formula of any straight line (linear function) is

y=kx+b

Lets find the coefficient k= (Yb-Ya)/(Xb-Xa)=(9-7)/(-4-3)=-2/7

(Xb;Yb)- are the coordinates of point B

(Xa;Ya) are the coordinates of point A

Now lets find the coefficient b.  For this purpose we gonna use the coordinates of any point A or B.

We will use A

7=-2/7*3+b

7=-6/7+b

b=7 6/7

So the line' s  equation is y= -2/7*x+7 6/7

Now we gonna find the value of a usingcoordinates of point C.

Yc=1,  Xc=a

1=-2/7*a+7 6/7

2/7*a= 7 6/7-1

2/7*a=6 6/7

(2/7)*a=48/7

a=48/7: (2/7)

a=24

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of 2 numbers is 18 and there difference is 6

Answers

Answer:

The two numbers are 6 and 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, let's start off, with x+y = 18 and x-y = 6.

Algebraically, we can add the above two equation sets, and we find out that 2x = 24, so x = 12. And then, it says the other number must be 6.

You start with a number that when added to the second number you will get 18 and when you subtract the second number from the first you will get 6. The difference between the above two results is 12.

So that difference of 12 is twice the second number; that means the second number is 6. And then using either of the given pieces of information, you can find that the first number is 12.

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

In conclusion:

6 + 12 = 18

12 - 18 = 6

Decide whether the normal sampling distribution can be used. If it can be​ used, test the claim about the population proportion p at the given level of significance using the given sample statistics.

Claim: p>0.12; α=0.05; Sample statistics: Modifying above p with caret equals 0.08, n is equal to 250

Answers

Answer:

There is no sufficient evidence to support the claim

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

     The  sample proportion is  [tex]\r p = 0.08[/tex]

     The  sample size is  [tex]n = 250[/tex]

     

Generally for normal sampling distribution can  be used

     [tex]n * p > 5[/tex]

So  

     [tex]n* p = 250 * 0.12 = 30[/tex]

Since  

     [tex]n * p > 5[/tex] then  normal sampling distribution can  be used

The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : p = 0.12[/tex]

  The alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : p > 0.12[/tex]

The  test statistic is evaluated as

            [tex]t = \frac{\r p - p }{ \sqrt{ \frac{p(1- p)}{n} } }[/tex]

substituting values

            [tex]t = \frac{0.08 - 0.12 }{ \sqrt{ \frac{0.12 (1- 0.12)}{250 } } }[/tex]

            [tex]t = -1.946[/tex]

The  p-value is obtained from the z  table and the value is

        [tex]p-value = P(t > -1.9462) =0.97512[/tex]

Since the [tex]p-value > \alpha[/tex]

    Then we fail to reject the null hypothesis

Hence it means there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim

What is linear equation?

A linear equation is an algebraic expression in which highest power of the given variable is equals to one.

Given that, the profit earned by a hot dog stand is a linear function of the number of hot dogs sold.

It costs the owner $48 dollars each morning for the day’s supply of hot dogs, buns and mustard, but he earns $2 profit for each hot dog sold.

We need to establish an equation that represents the total profit,

According to the question,

x represents the number of hot dogs sold

y represents the total profit earned

Cost required for supply = $48

Profit on each hot dog sold = $2

As per the condition given, the required linear equation is =

y = 2x - 48

Hence, y = 2x - 48 equation represents the profit earned by the x hot dog sold.

You would then divide that my 9(the amount of numbers) to get three

(3 + 3+ 4+ 5+ 5+ 5+ 6+ 7+ 7)/9

=3

If you are adding a number the numbers would be

3 + 3+ 4+ 5+ 5+ 5+ 6+ 7+ 7+?/10

Its ten because now you would have 10 numbers.

You know it equals 6, so you ask yourself: What divided by 10 would give you 6 or this equation:

( 3 + 3+ 4+ 5+ 5+ 5+ 6+ 7+ 7+?)/10=6

(45+?)/10=6

multiply both sides of the equal sign by 10

10(45+?)/10=6*10

The 10 on the bottom of the left side cancels out.

(45+?)=60

Subtract 15 from both sides of the equal sign
