Hi,
Note: z-values for various confidence levels

95% z = 1.96
98% z = 2.33
99% z = 2.576
a) ME = 1.645(44.5/sqrt(10000)= .732
138.5 - ME < mu < 138.5 + ME
b)ME = 1.96(44.5/sqrt(10000)= .873
138.5 - ME < mu < 138.5 + ME
c)ME = 2.576(44.5/sqrt(10000)= 1.146
138.5 - ME < mu < 138.5 + ME

Hi,
The idea is... to isolate the radical term on one side of the EQ
and then square both sides of the EQuation
2sqrt%28x%2B4%29+=+x%2B1
4(x+4) = x^2 + 2x + 1
4x + 4 = x^2 + 2x + 1
x^2 - 2x -3 = 0
(x-3)(x+1) = 0
x = 3 0r x = -1

Hi,
Note: Goal is to isolate the variable on one side of the Equation
That gives a plan of action!
1%2F6+-+x%2F2+=+%28%28x-5%29%29%2F3 ||Multiplying thru by 6 so as all denominators = 1
1 - 3x =2( x-5) |Distribute the 2 to remove the parenthesis
1 - 3x = 2x - 10 |Adding 3x to both sides
1 = 5x - 10 |Adding 10 to both sides
11 = 5x

Human-and-algebraic-language/635395: Suppose you work in a lab. You need a 15% acid solution for a certain test, but your supplier only ships a 10% solution and a 30% solution. Rather than pay the hefty surcharge to have the supplier make a 15% solution, you decide to mix 10% solution with 30% solution, to make your own 15% solution. You need 10 liters of the 15% acid solution. How many liters of 10% solution and 30% solution should you use?

Hi,
y = ax^2 + bx + c ⇒ y = a(x -(-b/2a)^2) - a(-b/2a)^2 + c
P = -25x^2 + 450x. | Note: -450/(2*-25) = 9
P= -25(x-9)^2 + 2025
9 cleks will maximize the daily profit at $2025

Hi,
In general, combine like terms and isolate variable on one side of the EQ
-2+y+5=3y+9
y + 3 = 3y + 9 ||subtracting y and 9 from both sides of EQ
-6 = 2y
-3 = y
