Darya [45]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find the total of tickets which is 85 and find the non-winning tickets which is 63. So, the answer is 63:85.

The volume V of a gas varies inversely as the pressure P and directly as the temperature A certain gas has a volume of 10 liters

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Joint variation states that:

If z is directly proportional to x and inversely proportional to y,

i.e, $z \propto x$ , $z \propto \frac{1}{y}$

then the equation is in the form: $z = k\frac{x}{y}$ where k is the constant of variation.

From the given information: The volume V of a gas varies inversely as the pressure P and directly as the temperature

i.,e $V \propto T$ , $V \propto \frac{1}{P}$

by definition of joint variation:

$V = k\frac{T}{P}$ .....[1] where k is the constant of variation.

It is also given that a certain gas has a volume of 10 liters(L) , a temperature of 300 kelvins(K), and a pressure of 1.5 atmosphere(atm).

Substitute these given values in [1] to solve for k;

$10 = k\frac{300}{1.5}$

Simplify:

$10 = 200k$

Divide by 200 both sides we have;

$k = \frac{10}{200} =\frac{1}{20}$

Now, if a gas has a temperature of 400 kelvins and a pressure of 5 atm.

To find the volume (V);

Now substitute the given data and value of k in [1] we have;

$V = \frac{1}{20} \cdot \frac{400}{5} = \frac{20}{5} = 4$

Therefore, the Volume of a gas is, 4 liters

Gekata [30.6K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

top down: ∞, 0, 1, 0, ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation will have infinite solutions when the left side and right side simplify to the same expression. This is the case for the first and last expressions listed.

2(x -5) = 2(x -5) . . . . expressions are already identical

x +2(x -5) = 3(x -2) -4 ⇒ 3x -10 = 3x -10 . . . the same simplified expression

__

The equation will have no solutions when the x-coefficients are the same, but there are different added constants.

5(x +4) = 5(x -6) ⇒ x +4 = x -6 . . . not true for any x

4(x -2) = 4(x +2) ⇒ x -2 = x +2 . . . not true for any x

__

The equation will have one solution when coefficients of x are different.

5(x +4) = 3(x -6) ⇒ 2x = -38 ⇒ x = -19

One month Ravi rented4 movies and8video games for a total of $57 The next month he rented2 movies and3 video games for a total o

e-lub [12.9K]

SOLUTION

Given the question in the question tab, the following are the solution steps to get the rental cost for each movie and each video game.

Step 1: Write the representation for the two rentals

Let m represents movies

Let v represent video games

Step 2: Write the statements in form of a mathematical equation

$\begin{gathered} \text{Month 1: }4m+8v=57 \\ \text{Month 2: }2m+3v=23 \end{gathered}$

Step 3: Solve the equations above simultaneously using elimination method to get the values of m and v

$\begin{gathered} 4m+8v=57----(1) \\ 2m+3v=23----(2) \\ \text{ multiply equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by }4 \\ 8m+16v=114----(3) \\ 8m+12v=92----(4) \\ \text{subtract equation (4) from equation (3)} \\ 4v=22 \\ v=\frac{22}{4}=5.5 \\ \text{Substitute 5.5 for v in equation 1 to get the value of m} \\ 4m+8v=57 \\ 4m+8(5.5)=57 \\ 4m+44=57 \\ 4m=57-44=13 \\ m=\frac{13}{4}=3.25 \\ m=\text{\$}3.25,v=\text{\$}5.50 \end{gathered}$

Rental cost for each movies is $3.25

Rental cost for each video games $5.50

You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of voters who prefer Candidate A is significantly different from 0.36. With

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is 0.36 so then we need to conduct a two tailed test, the system of hypothesis are.:

Null hypothesis: $p=0.36$

Alternative hypothesis: $p \neq 0.36$

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(z>2.074)=0.0381$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation n

n represent the random sample taken

$\hat p$ estimated proportion of interest

$p_o=0.36$ is the value that we want to test

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is 0.36 so then we need to conduct a two tailed test, the system of hypothesis are.:

Null hypothesis: $p=0.36$

Alternative hypothesis: $p \neq 0.36$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion is significantly different from a hypothesized value .

Calculate the statistic

For this case the statistic is given:

$z = 2.074$

Statistical decision

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(z>2.074)=0.0381$
