Simplify both sides:
2x - 3 > -5x + 11
Add 5x to both sides:
2x - 3 +5x > -5x + 11 +5
7x - 3 > 11
Add 3 to both sides:
7x - 3 +3 > 11 + 3
7x > 14
Divided 7 to both sides:
[tex]\frac{7x}{7}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{14}{7}[/tex]
x > 2

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
A group of professors investigated first-year college students' knowledge of astronomy. One concept of interest was the Big Bang theory of the creation of the universe. In a sample of 149 freshmen students, 32 believed that the Big Bang theory accurately described the creation of planetary systems. Based on this information, is it correct at the alpha = 0.01 level of significance to state that more than 20% of all freshmen college students believe the Big Bang theory describes the creation of planetary systems? State the null and alternative hypotheses. Choose the correct answer below. H_0: p = 0.20 H_a: p not equal to 0.20 H_0: p not equal to 0.20 H_a: p = 0.20 H_0: p = 0.20 H_a: p 0.20 If alpha = 0.05, find the rejection region for the test. Choose the correct answer below. z > 1.645 z > 1.96 z
Solution:
We would set up the null and alternative hypothesis. The correct options are
For null hypothesis,
p ≥ 0.2
For alternative hypothesis,
p < 0.2
This is a left tailed test.
Considering the population proportion, probability of success, p = 0.2
q = probability of failure = 1 - p
q = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8
Considering the sample,
Sample proportion, P = x/n
Where
x = number of success = 32
n = number of samples = 149
P = 32/149 = 0.21
We would determine the test statistic which is the z score
z = (P - p)/√pq/n
z = (0.21 - 0.2)/√(0.2 × 0.8)/149 = 0.31
The calculated test statistic is 0.31 for the right tail and - 0.31 for the left tail
Since α = 0.05, the critical value is determined from the normal distribution table.
For the left, α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025
The z score for an area to the left of 0.025 is - 1.96
For the right, α/2 = 1 - 0.025 = 0.975
The z score for an area to the right of 0.975 is 1.96
In order to reject the null hypothesis, the test statistic must be smaller than - 1.96 or greater than 1.96
Therefore, the rejection region is z > 1.96
Find the (a) mean, (b) median, (c) mode, and (d) midrange for the data and then (e) answer the given question. Listed below are the jersey numbers of 11 players randomly selected from the roster of a championship sports team. What do the results tell us? 24 72 41 76 15 29 64 93 74 38 99
Answer:
a) 56.82
b) 64
c) there is no mode
d) 57
e) the jersey numbers are nominal data and they do not measure or count anything, so the resulting statistic are meaningless
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing is to organize the data from least to greatest:
15 24 29 38 41 64 72 74 76 93 99
a) the mean would be the average of the data, thus:
m = (15 + 24 + 29 + 38 + 41 + 64 + 72 + 74 + 76 + 93 + 99) / 11
m = 56.82
b) the median is the data of half, when the data is organized, in this case the value of half would be the sixth data that is 64.
c) the mode is the value that is most repeated, therefore as none is repeated there is no mode.
d) the midrange is the average between the minimum value and the maximum value:
mr = (15 + 99) / 2
mr = 57
e) the jersey numbers are nominal data and they do not measure or count anything, so the resulting statistic are meaningless
he dot plot shows how many swimmers are in each line at a waterpark: Is the median or the mean a better measure of center for these data and why? Median, because the data are skewed and there is an outlier Median, because the data are symmetric and there are no outliers Mean, because the data are skewed and there is an outlier Mean, because the data are symmetric and there are no outliers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There's no plot, but I can give you this: Median is better with a large outlier, while mean is better for symmetry. Therefore, the correct answer would be either the first or fourth. Ofc, we can't see the plot so that's all I can give you.

In monitoring lead in the air after the explosion at the battery factory, it is found that the amounts of lead over a 6 day period had a standard error of 1.93. Find the margin of error that corresponds to a 95% confidence interval. (Round to 2 decimal places) 4.56
Answer:
1.54
Margin of error M.E = 1.54
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.
The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.
x+/-zr/√n
x+/-M.E
Where M.E = margin of error
M.E = zr/√n
Given that
Standard deviation r = 1.93
Number of samples n = 6
Confidence interval = 95%
z(at 95% confidence) = 1.96
Substituting the values we have;
M.E = (1.96×1.93/√6) = 1.544321633166
M.E = 1.54 (to 2 decimal place)
Margin of error M.E = 1.54
During the worst periods of inflation in America, the price of food increased at a rate of 12 % per month. If your food bill was $300 one month during this period, what was it two months later?
Exponential; $337.08
Linear; $672.00
Exponential; $376.32
Linear; $372.00
Answer:
Exponential; $376.32
Step-by-step explanation:
Generally, an increase of 12% in a month means the prices are 12% more than they were in the previous month. That is, the value has been multiplied by 1.12.
The same would be true for the second month, so the overall multiplier for the two months is ...
(1.12)(1.12) = 1.12^2 = 1.2544
This makes the food bill for the second month amount to ...
1.2544 × $300 = $376.32
_____
As with all percentages, you need to be clear about what base is being used. Here, we have assumed the base for a monthly increase is the value at the beginning of the month.
If, instead, it is the value at the beginning of the year, then the increase is linear, not exponential. 12% of the value at the beginning of the year is the same throughout the year.
The tallest church tower in the Netherlands is the Dom Tower in Utrecht. If the angle of elevation to the top of the tower is 77° when 25.9 m from the base, what is the height of the Dom Tower to the nearest metre.
Answer:
Height of the Dom is 112.18 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
The tallest church tower in the Netherlands is the Dom Tower in Utrecht. The angle of elevation to the top of the tower is 77° when 25.9 m from the base. It is required to find the height of the Dom Tower. Let its height is h. So, using trigonometric formula to find it as :
[tex]\tan\theta=\dfrac{h}{b}\\\\\tan(77)=\dfrac{h}{25.9}\\\\h=\tan(77)\times 25.9\\\\h=112.18\ m[/tex]
So, the height of the Dom is 112.18 m.

Σ[infinity]_n = 1 4 + 3^n / 2^n
Answer:
1. Diverges
2. Converges
3. Diverges
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
Limit comparison test:
- Given, ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] and suppose ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] such that both series are positive for all values of ( n ). Then the following three conditions are applicable for the limit:
Lim ( n-> ∞ ) [tex][ \frac{a_n}{b_n} ][/tex] = c
Where,
1) If c is finite: 0 < c < 1, then both series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] and ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] either converges or diverges.
2) If c = 0, then ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] converges only if ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] converges.
3) If c = ∞ or undefined, then ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] diverges only if ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] diverges.
a) The given series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] is:
(n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{n^2+1}{2n^3-1} ][/tex]
- We will make an educated guess on the comparative series ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] by the following procedure.
(n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{n^2( 1 + \frac{1}{n^2} )}{n^3 ( 2 - \frac{1}{n^2} ) } ] = [ \frac{( 1 + \frac{1}{n^2} )}{n( 2 - \frac{1}{n^2} ) } ][/tex]
- Apply the limit ( n - > ∞ ):
(n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{1}{2n}][/tex] .... The comparative series ( ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] )
- Both series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] and ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] are positive series. You can check by plugging various real number for ( n ) in both series.
- Compute the limit:
Lim ( n-> ∞ ) [tex][ \frac{n^2 + 1}{2n^3 - 1} * 2n ] = [ \frac{2n^3 + 2n}{2n^3 - 1} ][/tex]
Lim ( n-> ∞ ) [tex][ \frac{2n^3 ( 1 + \frac{1}{n^2} ) }{2n^3 ( 1 - \frac{1}{2n^3} ) } ] = [ \frac{ 1 + \frac{1}{n^2} }{ 1 - \frac{1}{2n^3} } ][/tex]
- Apply the limit ( n - > ∞ ):
Lim ( n-> ∞ ) [tex][ \frac{a_n}{b_n} ][/tex] = [tex][ \frac{1 + 0}{1 + 0} ][/tex] = 1 ... Finite
- So from first condition both series either converge or diverge.
- We check for ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] convergence or divergence.
- The ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] = ( 1 / 2n ) resembles harmonic series ∑ ( 1 / n ) which diverges by p-series test ∑ ( [tex]\frac{1}{n^p}[/tex] ) where p = 1 ≤ 1. Hence, ∑
- In combination of limit test and the divergence of ∑[tex]b_n[/tex], the series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] given also diverges.
Answer: Diverges
b)
The given series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] is:
(n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{n}{n^\frac{5}{2} +5} ][/tex]
- We will make an educated guess on the comparative series ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] by the following procedure.
(n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{n( 1 )}{n ( n^\frac{3}{2} + \frac{5}{n} ) } ] = [\frac{1}{( n^\frac{3}{2} + \frac{5}{n} )} ][/tex]
- Apply the limit ( n - > ∞ ) in the denominator for ( 5 / n ), only the dominant term n^(3/2) is left:
(n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{1}{n^\frac{3}{2} } ][/tex] .... The comparative series ( ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] )
- Both series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] and ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] are positive series. You can check by plugging various real number for ( n ) in both series.
- Compute the limit:
Lim ( n-> ∞ ) [tex][ \frac{n}{n^\frac{5}{2} +5} * n^\frac{3}{2} ] = [ \frac{n^\frac{5}{2}}{n^\frac{5}{2} +5} ][/tex]
Lim ( n-> ∞ ) [tex][ \frac{n^\frac{5}{2}}{n^\frac{5}{2} ( 1 + \frac{5}{n^\frac{5}{2}}) } ] = [ \frac{1}{1 + \frac{5}{n^\frac{5}{2}} } ][/tex]
- Apply the limit ( n - > ∞ ):
Lim ( n-> ∞ ) [tex][ \frac{a_n}{b_n} ][/tex] = [tex][\frac{1}{1 + 0}][/tex] = 1 ... Finite
- So from first condition both series either converge or diverge.
- We check for ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] convergence or divergence.
- The ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] = ( [tex][ \frac{1}{n^\frac{3}{2} } ][/tex] ) converges by p-series test ∑ ( [tex]\frac{1}{n^p}[/tex] ) where p = 3/2 > 1. Hence, ∑
- In combination of limit test and the divergence of ∑[tex]b_n[/tex], the series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] given also converges.
Answer: converges
Comparison Test:-
- Given, ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] and suppose ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] such that both series are positive for all values of ( n ).
-Then the following conditions are applied:
1 ) If ( [tex]a_n[/tex] - [tex]b_n[/tex] ) < 0 , then ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] diverges only if ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] diverges
2 ) If ( [tex]a_n[/tex] - [tex]b_n[/tex] ) ≤ 0 , then ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] converges only if ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] converges
c) The given series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] is:
(n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{4 + 3^2}{2^n} ][/tex]
- We will make an educated guess on the comparative series ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] by the following procedure.
(n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{3^n ( \frac{4}{3^n} + 1 )}{2^n} ][/tex]
- Apply the limit ( n - > ∞ ) in the numerator for ( 4 / 3^n ), only the dominant terms ( 3^n ) and ( 2^n ) are left:
(n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{3^n}{2^n} ][/tex] ... The comparative series ( ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] )
- Compute the difference between sequences ( [tex]a_n[/tex] - [tex]b_n[/tex] ):
[tex]a_n - b_n = \frac{4 + 3^n}{2^n} - [ \frac{3^n}{2^n} ] \\\\a_n - b_n = \frac{4 }{2^n} \geq 0[/tex], for all values of ( n )
- Check for divergence of the comparative series ( ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] ), using divergence test:
∑[tex]b_n[/tex] = (n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{3^n}{2^n} ][/tex] diverges
- The first condition is applied when ( [tex]a_n[/tex] - [tex]b_n[/tex] ) ≥ 0, then ∑diverges only if ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] diverges.

On a recent trip, Lamar's distance varied directly with the number of hours he drove. He traveled 288 miles in 6 hours. Which equation shows Lamar's distance, d, based on the number of hours, h, he drove?
(A) d = 6h
(B) d = 50h
(C) d = 48h
(D) d = 288h
Answer:
d = 48 h
Step-by-step explanation:
Lamar's distance traveled is directly proportional to the number of hours be drove.
So distance (d) ∝ hours (h)
Lamar traveled 288 miles in 6 hours
Since d ∝ h
then d = kh [ where k is the proportionality constant ]
if 288 = k × 6
k = =288/48
Therefore, equation will be d = 48 h will be the equation

g A two-tailed test is one where: Select one: a. results in only one direction can lead to rejection of the null hypothesis b. negative sample means lead to rejection of the null hypothesis c. results in either of two directions can lead to rejection of the null hypothesis d. no results lead to the rejection of the null hypothesis
Answer:
c. results in either of two directions can lead to rejection of the null hypothesis.
Step-by-step explanation:
A two tailed test is performed when we want to test if there is statistically significant difference from the null state. That means that if the statistic value is significantly higher or significantly lower, we will reject the null hypothesis. Both tails have rejection areas.

The distribution of X is Normal Distribution with mean [tex]= \mu =17[/tex] and Variance [tex]= \sigma^{2} = 16 \ i.e., X \sim N (17, 16),[/tex]
(b)
The distribution of [tex]\bar{x}[/tex] is Normal Distribution with mean [tex]= \mu =17[/tex] and Variance = [tex]\sigma^{2}/n = 16/15= 1.0667[/tex].i.e., [tex]\bar{x}\sim N(17,1.0667)[/tex]
c)
To find P(15.5 < X < 18):
Case 1: For X from 15.5 to mid value:
Z = (15.5 - 17)/4 = - 0.375
Table of Area Under Standard Normal Curve gives area = 0.1480
Case 2: For X from mid value to 18:
Z = (18 - 17)/4 = 0.25
Table of Area Under Standard Normal Curve gives area = 0.0987
So,
P(15.5 < X< 18) = 0.1480 +0.0987 = 0.2467
So,

Q1 is given by:
[tex]- 0.6745 = (\bar{x} - 17)/1.0328[/tex]
So,
X = 17 - (0.6745 * 1.0328) = 17 - 0.6966 = 16.3034
So,
Q1 = 16.3034
(ii)
Q3 is given by:
[tex]0.6745 = (\bar{x} - 17)/1.0328[/tex]
So,
X = 17 + (0.6745 * 1.0328) = 17 + 0.6966 = 17.6966
So,
Q3= 17.6966
(iii)
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 17.6966 - 16.3034 = 1.3932
So
Answers are:
Q1 = 16.3034 ounces
Q3 = 17.6966 Ounces
IQR = 1.3932 Ounces

Solve 3(a + 3) – 6 = 21.
Answer:
a=6
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the value of a you need to simplify the equation first. so...
3(a+3)-6=21 (you remove the bracket first)
3a+9-6=21
3a+3=21 (you collect the like terms then)
3a=21-3
3a=18 (then you both divide both sides by 3 to find the value of a)
a=18/3
a=6
to check your answer substitute 3 instead of a
3(a+3)-6=21
3(6+3)-6=21
3(9)-6=21 (according to BODMAS since multiplication comes first you multiply 3 with 9 before subtracting it from 6.)
29-6=21
21=21
Answer:6
Step-by-step explanation:
3(a + 3) - 6 = 21
3(a + 3) = 21 + 6
3(a + 3) =27
a + 3. = 27 ÷ 3
a + 3. = 9
a. = 9 - 3
a. = 6
A spinner is divided into 8 equal sections, and each section contains a number from 1 to 8. What is the probability of the spinner landing on 5? A. 1 over 13 B.1 over 8 C.5 over 13 D.5 over 8 PLEASE HURRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Answer:
B. 1 over 8
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the probability of the spinner landing on 5, we need to first know what probability is,
probability = required outcome/all possible outcome
since the spinner is divided into 8 equal sections and each section contains number from 1-8, this implies there are total of 64 numbers on the spinner. This implies that all possible outcome = 64
In each section there is 5, since there are 8 sections on the spinner, the number of 5's on the spinner are 8.
This implies that the required outcome = 8
but
probability = required outcome/all possible outcome
probability (of the spinner landing on 5) = 8/64 =1/8

Step-by-step explanation:
You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of men over the age of 50 who regularly have their prostate examined is significantly less than 0.3. A random sample of 735 men over the age of 50 found that 203 have their prostate regularly examined. Do the sample data provide convincing evidence to support the claim
Answer:
[tex]z=\frac{0.276 -0.3}{\sqrt{\frac{0.3(1-0.3)}{735}}}=-1.42[/tex]
Now we can claculate the p value with this formula:
[tex]p_v =P(z<-1.42)=0.0778[/tex]
If we use a signifiacn level of 5% we see that the p value is higher than 0.05 so then we have enough evidence to fail to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true proportion is significantly higher than 0.3 at 5% of significance.
Step-by-step explanation:
Information to given
n=735 represent the random sample taken
X=203 represent the number of people who have their prostate regularly examined
[tex]\hat p=\frac{203}{735}=0.276[/tex] estimated proportion of people who have their prostate regularly examined
[tex]p_o=0.3[/tex] is the value to verify
z would represent the statistic
[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value
System of hypothesis
We want to test if the true proportion is less than 0.3, the ystem of hypothesis are.:
Null hypothesis:[tex]p \geq 0.3[/tex]
Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p < 0.3[/tex]
The statistic is given by:
[tex]z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}[/tex] (1)
Replacing the info we got:
[tex]z=\frac{0.276 -0.3}{\sqrt{\frac{0.3(1-0.3)}{735}}}=-1.42[/tex]
Now we can claculate the p value with this formula:
[tex]p_v =P(z<-1.42)=0.0778[/tex]
If we use a signifiacn level of 5% we see that the p value is higher than 0.05 so then we have enough evidence to fail to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true proportion is significantly higher than 0.3 at 5% of significance.
A student takes a multiple-choice test that has 11 questions. Each question has five choices. The student guesses randomly at each answer. Let X be the number of questions answered correctly. (a) Find P (6). (b) Find P (More than 3). Round the answers to at least four decimal places.
Answer:
a) P(6) = 0.0097
b) P(More than 3) = 0.1611
Step-by-step explanation:
For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is guessed correctly, or it is not. Questions are independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
A student takes a multiple-choice test that has 11 questions.
This means that [tex]n = 11[/tex]
Each question has five choices.
This means that [tex]p = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2[/tex]
(a) Find P (6)
This is P(X = 6).
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{11,6}.(0.2)^{6}.(0.8)^{5} = 0.0097[/tex]
P(6) = 0.0097
(b) Find P (More than 3).
Either P is 3 or less, or it is more than three. The sum of the probabilities of these outcomes is 1. So
[tex]P(X \leq 3) + P(X > 3) = 1[/tex]
We want P(X > 3). So
[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{11,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{11} = 0.0859[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{11,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{10} = 0.2362[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{11,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{9} = 0.2953[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{11,3}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{8} = 0.2215[/tex]
[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0859 + 0.2362 + 0.2953 + 0.2215 = 0.8389[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3) = 1 - 0.8389 = 0.1611[/tex]
P(More than 3) = 0.1611

Step-by-step explanation:
Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time, flying in the same direction. One plane is flying at twice the speed of the other. If after 4 hours they are 1800 km apart, find the speed of each plane.
Answer:
One plane has a speed of 450 km/h and the other has a speed of 900 km/h.
Step-by-step explanation:
I am going to say that:
The speed of the first plane is x.
The speed of the second plane is y.
One plane is flying at twice the speed of the other.
I will say that y = 2x. We could also say that x = 2y.
Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time, flying in the same direction
They fly in the same direction, so their relative speed(difference) at the end of each hour is y - x = 2x - x = x.
If after 4 hours they are 1800 km apart, find the speed of each plane
After 1 hour, they will be x km apart. After 4, 1800. So
1 hour - x km apart
4 hours - 1800 km apart
4x = 1800
x = 1800/4
x = 450
2x = 2*450 = 900
One plane has a speed of 450 km/h and the other has a speed of 900 km/h.
The given line segment passes through the points (0, -3) and (-5, -4).
What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (-2, 2)?
Answer:
y= 1/5x + 12/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Points: (0, -3) and (-5, -4)Line: y= mx+bSlope: m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)= (-4+3)/(-5-0)= -1/-5= 1/5Y-intercept: -3= 0*1/5+b ⇒ b= -3So the line is: y= 1/5x - 3Parallel line to this has same slope and passes through the point (-2, 2)
Its y- intercept is: 2= 1/5(-2)+b ⇒ b= 2+2/5= 12/5The required equation in slope- intercept form is:
y= 1/5x + 12/5In 2 + In 8 - In 4
In 4
