He is offered a discount for the first five months. after this period, his rate increases by $8.50 per month. his total cost at

the end of the year is $245.50. paul wrote the following equation represent his plan. 5x + 7(x + 8.50) = 245.50 part a: how much, in total, will paul pay during the five discounted months of his plan? (1 point

The first five months Paul paid  and in the next seven months he paid 24.

<h3>What is a Discount ?</h3>

Discounts are defined as lowered prices or the sale of an item for less than it would typically cost. The fundamental formula for calculating a discount is to multiply the original price by the given percentage rate in decimal form. We must deduct the discount from the original price to determine the item's sale price. A discount is an amount that is subtracted from the regular price of an item.

Paul represent his plan in the form of equation:

5 x+7(x+8.50)=245.50

Where x  is an amount for the first 5 months that is paid by Paul after the discount and (x+8.50)  is an amount for the next 7 month after discount.

&\Rightarrow \quad 5 x+7 x+59.50=245.50 \\&\Rightarrow \quad 12 x=186 \\&\Rightarrow \quad x=\frac{186}{12} \\&\Rightarrow \quad x=15.50\end{aligned}

For the next 7 month:

(x+8.50)=(15.50+8.50)=\$ 24

Therefore, The first 5 months Paul paid $ 15.50, and in the next 7 months he paid $ 24.

26. Students who take a statistics course are given a pre-test on the concepts and skills for the first chapter of a statistics
hjlf

The test statistic value lies to the right of the critical value. So we have sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

<h3>What are null hypotheses and alternative hypotheses?</h3>

In null hypotheses, there is no relationship between the two phenomenons under the assumption or it is not associated with the group. And in alternative hypotheses, there is a relationship between the two chosen unknowns.

Students who take a statistics course are given a pre-test on the concepts and skills for the first chapter of a statistics course.

Then they are given a post-test once the professor has concluded lecturing on the material.

Pre-test and post-test scores for 4 students in an elementary statistics class are given below.

Then we have

\mu _d = \mu _{post} - \mu _{pre}

Then the null hypotheses and alternative hypotheses will be

H₀: \mu _d = 0

Hₐ: \mu _d > 0

Then the test statistic will be

\rm \overline{x} _d = \dfrac{\Sigma x_d}{n} = \dfrac{15+12+10+1}{4}\\\\\overline{x} _d = 9.5

Then

\rm S_d = 6.02

The test statistic value is given by

\rm t = \dfrac{\overline{x} _d }{\dfrac{S_d}{\sqrtn}} \\\\t = \dfrac{9.5}{\dfrac{6.02}{\sqrt4}}\\\\t = 3.16

Since this is a right-tailed test, so the critical value is given by

\rm t_{n-1}(\alpha ) = t_3 (0.05) = 2.353

Since the test statistic value lies to the right of the critical value. So we have sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, we can conclude that \mu _d > 0 that is test scores have improved.

More about the null hypotheses and alternative hypotheses link is given below.

A rectangular prism has a volume of 600 cubic inches.
choli [55]

Answer:

The length is 12 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by:

V=LBH

It was given that; the rectangular prism has a volume of 600 cubic inches.

The height of the prism is 5 inches and the width is 10 inches.

We want to find the length of the rectangular prism.

We substitute V=600, H=5,and W=10 into the formula:

600=5×10×L

600=20L

L =  \frac{600}{50}

L = 12in

Write a system of equations to describe the situation below, solve using any method, and fill in the blanks.
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

the download cost for a song is $1 and $11 for a movie

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the questions, the following equations are as follows:

Let us assume the song be x

And, the movies be y

So,

20x + 13y = $163.........(i)

13x + 13y = $156........(ii)

Now solve substract second equation from the first equation

7x = $7

x = $1

And the y value is

20 + 13y = $163

13y = $163 - $20

13y = $143

y = $11

Hence, the download cost for a song is $1 and $11 for a movie
