If \(18+d=12\), what is the value of \(5 d\) ? A) \(-30\) B) \(-18\) C) \(-6\) D) 6

Short Answer

Expert verified
The value of \(5d\) is \(-30\). Therefore, the answer is A) \(-30\).

Step by step solution

01

Solve the given equation for d

Subtract \(18\) from both sides of the equation \(18+d=12\). \[ d = 12 - 18 \]
02

Simplify the right side of the equation

Subtract 18 from 12. \[ d = -6 \]
03

Find the value of \(5d\) by multiplying d by 5

Now that we have the value of \(d\) as \(-6\), we can find the value of \(5d\) by multiplying \(-6\) by \(5\). \[ 5d = 5(-6) \]
04

Simplify the expression

Multiply \(-6\) by \(5\). \[ 5d = -30 \] The value of \(5d\) is \(-30\). Therefore, the answer is A) \(-30\).

A recent biological study performed on a large random sample of North American birds found that \(46 \%\) of birds' nests experienced full or partial nest predation, in which some type of predator raided the nest before the hatchlings had flown off. The margin of error for the study was \(3 \%\). Which of the following is the best interpretation of the margin of error for this study? A) The percentage of North American birds whose nests get raided by predators is likely somewhere between \(43 \%\) and \(49 \%\). B) There is a \(3 \%\) chance that the study's finding about nest predation for North American birds is incorrect. C) It is unlikely that fewer than \(43 \%\) of birds' nests will get raided this coming year. D) The research indicates that no more than \(49 \%\) of birds' nests will likely get raided by predators.
