5x+17=8x-31

Subtract -5x from each side

17=3x-31

Add 31 to both sides

48=3x

Divide 48 by 3

x=16

RS=5(16)+17

RS=97

¡Hola! Bienvenido a!

Vamos a sumar cuántas canicas tenemos en total.

12+11+17+5=45

Queremos hallar la probabilidad de elegir una canica que no sea azul. Observemos cuántas canicas no son azules.

12+11+5=28

Tendremos esta probabilidad sobre 48.

28/48

Al simplificar, obtenemos 7/12 o alrededor de 58.33%.

A survey conducted five years ago by the health center at a university showed that 18% of the students smoked at the time. This
tester [8842]
The test statistic (Z) is 2.5767, and the p-value of the test is 0.009975. The null hypothesis suggests that the smoking rate among students has not changed, while the alternative indicates otherwise. The z-statistic for the sampled proportion is computed, yielding z ≈ 2.5767. As we investigate whether the smoking percentage has shifted over the preceding five years, the two-tailed p-value is found to be 0.009975. This result is significant at a 99% confidence level, demonstrating substantial evidence that the percentage of smoking students has changed.
