Answer:

$140

Step-by-step explanation:

If x was the amount of money Mr. Green had remaining, and y was the amount of money Mrs. Green had remaining, then:

x / y = 3 / 2

And, since they spent the same amount of money:

200 - x = 180 - y

We can solve this system of equations through substitution.

x = 3/2 y

200 - 3/2 y = 180 - y

20 = 1/2 y

y = 40

So Mrs. Green had $40 remaining.  Since she started with $180, she must have spent $140.  So that was the cost of the shirt.  Let's check our answer by seeing how much Mr. Green had remaining and how it compares.

$200 - $140 = $60

$60 / $40 = 3 / 2

Yep, it checks out.

devlian [24]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x – 7)^2 – 3

This equation is in vertex form

y = a(x-h)^2 +k

where (h,k) is the vertex

For a vertical parabola, the line of symmetry is x=h

The mayor is interested in finding a 98% confidence interval for the mean number of pounds of trash per person per week that is
saul85 [17]

Solution :

Given :

Sample mean, $\overline X = 34.2$

Sample size, n = 129

Sample standard deviation, s = 8.2

a. Since the population standard deviation is unknown, therefore, we use the t-distribution.

b. Now for 95% confidence level,

   α = 0.05, α/2 = 0.025

  From the t tables, T.INV.2T(α, degree of freedom), we find the t value as

  t =T.INV.2T(0.05, 128) = 2.34

  Taking the positive value of t, we get  

  Confidence interval is ,

  $\overline X \pm t \times \frac{s}{\sqrt n}$

 $34.2 \pm 2.34 \times \frac{8.2}{\sqrt {129}}$

 (32.52, 35.8)

 95% confidence interval is  (32.52, 35.8)

So with $95 \%$ confidence of the population of the mean number of the pounds per person per week is between 32.52 pounds and 35.8 pounds.

c. About $95 \%$ of confidence intervals which contains the true population of mean number of the pounds of the trash that is generated per person per week and about $5 \%$ that doe not contain the true population of mean number of the pounds of trashes generated by per person per week.
