Tiffany buys a basket of watermelons on sale for \$9$9dollar sign, 9 before tax. The sales tax is 9\%9%9, percent.

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

<em>Tiffany pays a total price of $9.81 for the basket of watermelons</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

To increase a certain amount by a given percentage, we can first calculate the increasing amount and then add it to the original amount.

If the price of the basket of watermelons was $9 before tax, and the sales tax is 9%, we first calculate the tax amount to pay:

$9 * 9 / 100 = $0.81

Now we add it to $9 to get the total price paid by Tiffany:

Total price = $9 + $0.81 = $9.81

Tiffany pays a total price of $9.81 for the basket of watermelons

The area of a rectangle is 28square miles. The length is 7 miles.

Masja [62]

Area=length times width
area=28
length=7

28=7 times width
divide both sides by 7
4=width

the width is 4 miles
and perimiter is 22mi

Write each equation in slope-intercept form (3,4); and (-6,-2)

Alborosie

Answer:

y = 2/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Given 2 points you can find the slope using (y-y1)/(x-x1)

m = (-2-4)/(-6-3) = -6/-9 = 2/3

To find b use one of the points and m and plug into the slope intercept form and then solve for b.

y=mx+b

4=2/3(3) + b

4=2 + b

b=2

Now we can write the final equation as : (plug m and b back in)

y = 2/3x + 2

A demographer wants to measure life expectancy in countries 1 and 2. Let μ1 and μ2 denote the mean life expectancy in countries

Art [367]

Answer:

For this case we want to test if life expectancy in country 1 is more than 10 years lower than in country 2, (alternatibe hypothesis), so then the system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_1 \leq \mu_2 -10$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_1 > \mu_2 -10$

Or equivalently:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_1 - \mu_2 \leq 10$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_1 - \mu_2 >10$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".

The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".

The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".

Solution to the problem

For this case we want to test if life expectancy in country 1 is more than 10 years lower than in country 2, (alternatibe hypothesis), so then the system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_1 \leq \mu_2 -10$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_1 > \mu_2 -10$

Or equivalently:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_1 - \mu_2 \leq 10$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_1 - \mu_2 >10$
