3 - (2x + 4) = 2(3x + 1) solve for x and show work

x= 3/-8

Step-by-step explanation:

open brackets and calculate

3- 2x-4 = 6x+2

-1-2x= 6x+2

-2x-6x= 2+1

-8x= 3

x= 3/-8

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
