Answer:

UW = 36 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question

Point V lies between points U and W on Line segment U W. A line has points U, V, W. The length between U V is 2 x minus 4. The length between V W is 4 x + 10. If UW = 9x – 9, what is UW in units?

If a point V lies between points U and W on line segment UW, then based on vector notation, UV + VW = UW.

Given parameters

The length between U and V i.e UV = 2x-4

The length between V and W i.e VW= 4x + 10.

UW = 9x – 9

Required

The length between U and W in units

Since UW = UV+VW, we will substitute the given functions into the formula as shown;

9x-9 = 2x-4+4x + 10.

9x-9 = 2x+4x-4+10

9x-9 = 6x+6

collect like terms on both sides;

9x-6x = 6+9

3x = 15

x = 15/3

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into the function UW = 9x-9 to ge the length of UW in units.

UW = 9(5)-9

UW = 45-9

UW = 36 units

<em>Hence the required length between line segment U and W in units is 36units.</em>

T=5w

T= total cost 
W= weeks 
 
It can't be W= because the question is asking for total cost in dollars, so two options are cancelled out.

Can't be t=5+w because it's 5 per week and if, let's say calculating dollars for 2 weeks, the answer would be t=5+2=7 and that wouldn't be right

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Decision is reject the H_0 as There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean time is less then 5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The mean waiting time for a bus during rush hour is less than 5 minutes.

Thus the null hypothesis is:

H_0: \mu\geq 5

H_1: \mu< 5

A random sample of 20 waiting times has a mean of 3.7 minutes with a standard deviation of 2.1 minutes. At α = 0.01,

Now use the table to find the z value, where α = 0.01,

t_L = -2.3264

The value of n is 20, sample mean is 3.7, population mean is 5 and standard deviation is 2.1.

Now, use the formula: Standardized test statistic for z-scores =t=\frac{\bar x-\mu_0}{{s}/{\sqrt{n} }}.

Substitute the respective values in the above formula.

t=\frac{3.7-5}{{2.1}/{\sqrt{20} }}

t=\frac{-1.3}{0.47}

t=-2.768465115\approx-2.77

As, the test statistic is in the reject interval, so reject H_0

There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean time is less then 5 minutes.
