Answer:

I believe the answer is x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

3x and 4x-1 are corresponding sides and so are 14 and 18.

You cross multiply with the smaller triangle lengths at the top.

3x/(4x-1)= 14/18

Cross multiply to get

18(3x)= 14(4x-1)

54x=56x-14

Subtract 54x on the other side and add 14 to the other (or subtract 56x to the other side)

you get 14=2x and divide 14 by 2 to get x=7

Answer: A. z = -2.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion of people polled favor the incumbent.

As per given , we have

$H_0: p=0.54\\\ H_a: p$

Sample size : n= 1030

sample proportion : $\hat{p}=0.50$

Test statistic for proportion : $z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}$

$z=\dfrac{0.50-0.54}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.54(1-0.54)}{1030}}}\\\\= \dfrac{-0.04}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.2484}{1030}}}\\\\=\dfrac{-0.04}{0.015529488}\approx-2.57$

Hence, the test statistic is z = -2.57 .

Thus , the correct answer is A. z = -2.57 .

Write and evaluate two equivalent numerical expressions that show Distributive Property of Multiplication

Ainat [17]

Answer:

2(x+5) = 2x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you can use any possible combination of two equivalent numerical expressions for your question.

2(x+5) = 2x+10

2 times x is 2x. 2 times 5 is 10. So, you get 2x+10
