There are 59 eggs in the basket

Step-by-step explanation:

There are between 50 & 60 eggs in a basket

  • When Roza counts by 3's there are 2 leftover
  • When she counts by 5's there are 4 leftover

We need to find how many eggs in the basket

∵ When Roza counts by 3's there are 2 leftover

∵ When she counts by 5's there are 4 leftover

- That means the number of eggs when divided by 3 give

  remainder 2 and when divided by 5 give remainder 4

- To find the number look for the numbers that divisible by 5 and

  add 4 to them and then check the remainder when they divided

  by 3

∵ Between 50 and 60 there is only one number divisible by 5

  is 55 (not including 50 or 60)

∵ 55 + 4 = 59

∴ 59 gives remainder 4 when divided by 5

Let us check them with 3

∵ 59 - 2 = 57

∵ 57 is divisible by 3 ⇒ (57 ÷ 3 = 19)

∴ 59 when divide by 3 gives remainder 2

∴ 59 gives remainder 4 when divided by 5 and remainder 2 when

  divided by 3

∴ The number of eggs in the basket is 59

There are 59 eggs in the basket

A random sample of 20 recent weddings in a country yielded a mean wedding cost of $ 26,388.67. Assume that recent wedding costs
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

a) 95% confidence interval for the mean​cost, μ​, of all recent weddings in this country = (22,550.95, 30,226.40)

.The​ 95% confidence interval is from $22,550.95 to $30,226.40.

b) For the interpretation of the result, option D is correct.

We can be​ 95% confident that the mean​ cost, μ​, of all recent weddings in this country is somewhere within the confidence interval.

c) Option B is correct.

The population mean may or may not lie in this​ interval, but we can be​ 95% confident that it does.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size = 20

Sample Mean = $26,388.67

Sample Standard deviation = $8200

Confidence Interval for the population mean is basically an interval of range of values where the true population mean can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± (Margin of error)

Sample Mean = 26,388.67

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)

Critical value will be obtained using the t-distribution. This is because there is no information provided for the population mean and standard deviation.

To find the critical value from the t-tables, we first find the degree of freedom and the significance level.

Degree of freedom = df = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19.

Significance level for 95% confidence interval

(100% - 95%)/2 = 2.5% = 0.025

t (0.025, 19) = 2.086 (from the t-tables)

Standard error of the mean = σₓ = (σ/√n)

σ = standard deviation of the sample = 8200

n = sample size = 20

σₓ = (8200/√20) = 1833.6

99% Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)]

CI = 26,388.67 ± (2.093 × 1833.6)

CI = 26,388.67 ± 3,837.7248

99% CI = (22,550.9452, 30,226.3948)

99% Confidence interval = (22,550.95, 30,226.40)

a) 95% confidence interval for the mean​cost, μ​, of all recent weddings in this country = (22,550.95, 30,226.40)

.The​ 95% confidence interval is from $22,550.95 to $30,226.40.

b) The interpretation of the confidence interval obtained, just as explained above is that we can be​ 95% confident that the mean​ cost, μ​,of all recent weddings in this country is somewhere within the confidence interval

c) A further explanation would be that the population mean may or may not lie in this​ interval, but we can be​ 95% confident that it does.

Hope this Helps!!!

Find the equation of the line that is parallel to the line x + 5y = 10 and passes through the point (1,3).
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

for two lines to be parallel they MUST have the same slope but have different Y intercepts ( Y axis crossing values)

parallel lines will never intersect each other

first I use a graphing calcuator to solve the problem

I like to use y intercept form better, but you don't have use it

I will try to solve it directly without going through the y intercept equation

x + 5y = 10    in y intercept form y = mx + b is

5y = -x + 10     divide both sides by 5

y = -x/5 + 10/5    

y = -x/5 + 2

Now I need to find a parallel line that passes through the x =1 and y = 3 point recall this line will have the same slope =     m = -1/5

and a different Y axis crossing point 'b' that we don't know

y = -x/5 + b      y = 3 when x = 1 so slove for 'b'

3 = -1/5 + b

3 = -0.2 + b    add -0.2 to both sides

3.2 = b

y = -x/5 + 3.2     this is answer in y intercept form

                          if you multiply both sides by 5

5y = -x + 16        add x to both sides

x + 5y = 16         answer in standard form

THE EASIER WAY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM IS ......

x + 5y = 10      find a line parallel that passes through x  = 1,  y = 3  

x + 5y = Z       Z is an unknown value  plug in x and y and solve for Z

1 + 5(3) = Z

Z = 16              so the parallel line in standard form is

x + 5y = 16    

same as before,  my y intercept method was correct, but not  worth the effort

Choose the expression that is equal to 28.3
tamaranim1 [39]
The first one = 60.3 so it can’t be that one.
the second one = 34.5 so not that one either
the third one = 60.3
and the last one = 28.3
