Here is my question
Answer:
[tex]\frac{17}{24}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
4 - 1 [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] = 2 [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
Step 2 :
1 ÷ 2 [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] = 1 × [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]
Step 3:
[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8+5}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{13}{12}[/tex] = 1 [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex]
Step 4:
3 ÷ [tex]\frac{13}{12}[/tex] = 3 × [tex]\frac{12}{13}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{36}{13}[/tex] = 2 [tex]\frac{10}{13}[/tex]
Step 5:
1 - 2 [tex]\frac{10}{13}[/tex] = - 1 [tex]\frac{10}{13}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{23}{13}[/tex]
Step 6:
1 - [tex]\frac{16}{39}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{23}{39}[/tex]
Step 7:
[tex]\frac{23}{39}[/tex] ÷ ( - [tex]\frac{23}{13}[/tex] ) = - [tex]\frac{23}{39}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{13}{23}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Step 8:
[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] - ( - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] ) = [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9+8}{24}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{17}{24}[/tex]
the sum of three terms in a GP is 14 and the sum of their squares is 84, find the terms
Answer:
The terms are 2, 4, and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
a+b+c=14
a^2+b^2+c^2=84
Plug in numbers.
3+6+5=14
3^2+6^2+5^2=70
This is too little, meaning the some of the terms have to be larger.
1+7+6=14
1^2+7^2+6^2=86
This is too much, meaning smaller terms are needed.
2+8+4=14
2^2+8^2+4^2=84
This is perfect.
Some government leaders propose allowing oil companies to drill in currently protected lands that may be rich in oil reserves. Environmental researchers argue that drilling in such lands would be harmful to the surrounding ecosystem. To measure support for drilling in such lands, an oil company representative uses random-digit telephone dialing to contact adults in the region and measure opinion for increased drilling. One question in the survey asks, "Given that an increase in drilling could result in increased tax revenue and additional jobs to the region, would you support a proposal to allow drilling in lands currently protected from drilling?" What type of bias could be most likely affecting the survey results? This is undercoverage bias because some segments of the population will be excluded from the sample. This is response bias because those selected for the survey may not provide truthful opinions about oil drilling. This is voluntary res
The type of bias in this survey is question-wording bias because the question is influencing the response (option D).
Question-wording bias occurs when the words selected in the question influence a specific response. Here is one example:
Do you believe a cruel practice such as bullfighting should be forbidden?In this question, the use of the word cruel qualifies bullfighting as negative, and therefore in most cases, people will answer that bullfighting should be forbidden.
This effect occurs in the question for this survey because the section given that an increase in drilling could result in increased tax revenue and additional jobs to the region indirectly states drilling is positive and therefore influences the response of those surveyed.
Note: This question is incomplete because some of the options are missing; here are the complete options:
What type of bias could be most likely affecting the survey results?
A. This is undercoverage bias because some segments of the population will be excluded from the sample.
B. This is response bias because those selected for the survey may not provide truthful opinions about oil drilling.
C. This is voluntary response bias because those most passionate about drilling will be more likely to register an opinion.
D. This is question-wording bias because the information given at the start of the question may lead those surveyed towards a desired response.

What is the equation of the line that passes through
(-5, 0) and (4, 3)?
Answer:
[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{5}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope form of an equation for a line is y = mx + b (m is the slope; b is the y-intercept).
First, find the slope using the two given points.
[tex]m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{3-0}{4-(-5)}=\frac{3}{9}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
At this stage, you know the slope and need to find the y-intercept. Plug in one of the points (either one) into the equation. Let's use (-5, 0).
[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x+b\\0=\frac{1}{3}(-5)+b\\0=-\frac{5}{3}+b\\\frac{5}{3}=b[/tex]
The equation for the line is [tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{5}{3}[/tex].
You can check for errors by putting in the point you didn't use...
Check to make sure the point (4, 3) satisfies the equation.
[tex]3=\frac{1}{3}(4)+\frac{5}{3}\\3=\frac{4}{3}+\frac{5}{3}\\3=\frac{9}{3}[/tex] True!

50% of 70
help! I don’t understand!!
Answer:
The answer is 35.
Step-by-step explanation:
50% means half of a number.
For example, 50% of 20 is 10, because half of 20 is 10.
In this situation, the number is 70.
Do 70 divided by 2.
The answer is 35.
Answer : 50% can be written as .50, so to get 50% of 70, you just need to multiply 70 by .50. This will give you 35. (The answer.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Any percent can be written as a decimal. Move the decimal point two places to the right to convert a percent to a decimal. For example, 25% to .25 and 50% to .50.
What is the radical form of the expression 4 3/2?
Answer:
[tex]\sqrt{4^{3} }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
4 to the power of 3/2 is the same thing as [tex]\sqrt{4^{3} }[/tex]
since the numerator (3) represents the exponent, and the denominator (2) is the root
think of it like this: [tex]4^{2}[/tex] is (4x4) and [tex]4^{1}[/tex] is just 4 and so [tex]4^{\frac{1}{2} }[/tex] is 2 since it is the inverse of [tex]4^{2}[/tex] and the inverse of a power is a root, so the denominator always is the root and the numerator is the power

We'll use rule of exponents to simplify expression.
[tex]\sf 3^1a^2b^4(-8)^1a^1b^3[/tex]
Now, use the commutative property of multiplication.
[tex]\sf 3^1(-8)^1a^2a^2b^4b^4[/tex]
In order to multiply power of the same base, we add their exponents.
[tex]\sf 3^2(-8)^1a^{2+1}b^{4+3}[/tex]
→ Add exponents:
[tex]\sf 3^1(-8)^1a^3b^7[/tex]
→ Multiply 3* -8

Step-by-step explanation:
A line passes through the point (-2,-6) and has a slope of 5/2. Write an equation in slope-intercept from this line.
Slope = 5/2
y intercept = -1
======================================================
Work Shown:
m = 5/2 = slope
(x1,y1) = (-2,-6) = point the line goes through
y-y1 = m(x-x1) .... point slope form
y-(-6) = (5/2)(x-(-2))
y+6 = (5/2)(x+2)
y+6 = (5/2)x + (5/2)*2
y+6 = (5/2)x + 5
y = (5/2)x + 5 - 6
y = (5/2)x - 1
This equation is in slope intercept form y = mx+b
m = 5/2 = slope
b = -1 = y intercept
Evaluate.

PEMDAS, notice Parentheses is first, then Exponents 2nd
[tex]16\div\left(2 + \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^2 \right)\implies 16\div\left(2 + \left( \frac{1^2}{2^2} \right) \right)\implies 16\div\left(2+\frac{1}{4} \right)[/tex]
now that the exponent got done, let's keep in the parentheses
[tex]16\div\left(\frac{2}{1}+\frac{1}{4} \right)\implies 16\div\left(\cfrac{8+1}{\underset{\textit{using this LCD}}{4}} \right)\implies 16\div \left( \cfrac{9}{4} \right)[/tex]
PEMDAS, after all that we'll do D, Division next
[tex]16\div \left( \cfrac{9}{4} \right)\implies \cfrac{16}{1}\div \cfrac{9}{4}\implies \cfrac{16}{1}\cdot \cfrac{4}{9}\implies \cfrac{64}{9}\implies 7\frac{1}{9}[/tex]

how to solve 1/2(x-6) = 1/2
Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2(x-6)=1/2
(1/2)(x)+(1/2)(−6)=1/2
1/2x+−3=1/2
1/2x−3=1/2
1/2x−3+3=1/2+3
1/2x=7/2
2*(1/2x)=2*(7/2)
x=7
