Using proportions, it is found that it takes 886 more mini-bears than regular-bears to have the same weight as one super-bear.

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

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.

10 mini-bears weights to 12.1 grams, hence the weight of a mini-bear is of:

12.1/10 = 1.21 grams.

10 regular bears weights to 23.1 grams, hence the weight of a regular bear is of:

23.1/10 = 2.31 grams.

1 super bear weights to 2250 grams, hence the proportion between the <u>weight of a super bear and the weight of a mini-bear</u> is:

2250/1.21 = 1860.

The proportion between the <u>weight of a super bear and the weight of a regular bear</u> is:

2250/2.31 = 974.

The difference of proportions is given by:

1860 - 974 = 886.

It takes 886 more mini-bears than regular-bears to have the same weight as one super-bear.

QUESTION 1

The given system of equations is

$3d - e = 7...eqn(1)$
$d + e = 5...eqn(2)$

To solve by linear combination, we add equation (1) to equation (2) to get,

$3d + d= 7 + 5$

$4d = 12$

We divide through by 4 to obtain,

$d = \frac{12}{4}$

$d = 3$

We put d=3 into equation (2) to get,

$3+ e = 5$

$e = 5 - 3$

$e = 2$

$\boxed {The \: solution \: is \: (3, 2)}$

QUESTION 2

The given system is

4x + y = 5 ...eqn(1)

3x + y = 3 ...eqn(2)

To solve by linear combination, we subtract equation (2) from equation (1) to eliminate y from the equation.

This will give us,

$4x - 3x = 5 - 3$

This implies that,

$x = 2$

Put x=3 into equation (1) to get,

$4(2) + y = 5$

$8+ y = 5$

$y = 5 - 8$

$y = - 3$

The solution is

$(2,-3)$

QUESTION 3

We want to solve the system;

a – 2b = –2 ....eqn(1)

2a + 2b = 14...eqn(2)

by linear combination.

We need to add equation (1) to equation (2) to eliminate b.

This implies that,

$2a + a = 14 + - 2$

Simplify,

$3a = 12$

Divide both sides by 3 to get,

$a = 4$
Put a=4 into equation (2) to obtain,

$2(4) + 2b = 14$

$8 + 2b = 14$
$2b = 14 - 8$

$2b = 6$

$b = 3$

The ordered pair in the form (a, b) is

$(4,3)$

QUESTION 4

The given system of equations is

11x + 4y = 18 ...eqn(1)

3x + 4y = 2 ...eqn(2)

We subtract equation (2) from equation (1) to get,

$11x - 3x = 18 - 2$

$8x = 16$

$x = 2$

Put x=2 into equation (2) to obtain,

$3(2) + 4y = 2$

This implies that,

$6 + 4y = 2$

$4y = 2 - 6$

$4y = - 4$

$y=-1$

The correct answer is (2,-1).

QUESTION 5

The given system is ;

2d + e = 8...eqn1

d – e = 4...eqn2

We add the two equations to eliminate e.

This implies that,

$2d + d = 8 + 4$

$3d = 12$

We divide both sides by 3 to get,

$d = 4$

We put d=4 into equation (2) to get,

$4 - e = 4$

$- e = 4 - 4$

$- e = 0$

$e = 0$

The solution is

$(4,0)$

Aveeno and her boyfriend you know who wrote the bus six times in a month it cost $40 for the two of them each time if Avena alwa

MaRussiya [10]

Answer: The cost for the month is $240.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost for the two i.e Aveeno and her boyfriend = $40

They were charged 6 times in a month.

As we know that times stands for multiplication.

So, we need to find the cost for the month, where we multiply 6 with $40 to get the amount for the whole month.

So, the amount for the month would be

$40\times 6=\$240$

Hence, the cost for the month is $240.

Answer:

1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05 = 1.2762815625

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponent indicates how many times the base is a factor in the product. That is, 1.05 to the 5th power means ...

1.05⁵ = 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05

This multiplication expression is evaluated in the usual way.

= 1.1025 × 1.05 × 1.05 × 1.05

= 1.157625 × 1.05 × 1.05

= 1.21550625 × 1.05

= 1.2762815625

All scientific and graphing calculators have a button for computing the power of a number. On my calculator its label is $\displaystyle \boxed{y^x}$ . The particulars of the function of this button can be found in the manual for your calculator.

For on-line calculators, such as the go.ogle calculator, or the Desmos graphing calculator, the caret (^) is used to signify an exponent. (See the input line in the first attachment for an example.)

You have an SRS of size 8 and calculate the one-sample t statistic. What is the critical value t∗ such that (a) t has probabilit

Rudik [331]

Answer:

a) "=T.INV(1-0.02,7)"

And we got $t_{crit}= 2.518$

b) "=T.INV(0.85,7)"

And we got $t_{crit}= 1.119$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have a sample size of n=8, so we can find the degrees of freedom like this:

$df = n-1 = 8-1 =7$

Part a

For this case we need a value who accumulates 0.02 of the area in the right of the t distribution with 7 degrees of freedom so we can use the following excel code:

"=T.INV(1-0.02,7)"

And we got $t_{crit}= 2.518$

Part b

For this case we need a value who accumulates 0.85 of the area in the left of the t distribution with 7 degrees of freedom so we can use the following excel code:

"=T.INV(0.85,7)"

And we got $t_{crit}= 1.119$

Answer:

the distance between the 2 points is 6.4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

point 1 has the coordinates (-4, -2).

point 2 has the coordinates (1, 2).

the distance between both points is the Hypotenuse of the right- angled triangle of the coordinate difference lines in parallel to x- and y-axis.

so, how long is the difference in x dimension ?

and his long is the difference in y dimension ?

these are the sides of the triangle.

the difference in x dimension :

1 - -4 = 1 + 4 = 5

the difference in y dimension :

2 - -2 = 2 + 2 = 4

P1P2² = 4² + 5² = 16 + 25 = 41

P1P2 = sqrt(41) = 6.4
