\frac{15}{70}  =  \frac{?}{350}
15 \times 350 \div 70 = 75

Total population of representative sample = 45 boys + 25 girls = 70

Now out of these 70 students, 15 girls prefer classical music.

So for 70 students = 15 girls prefer classical music

Applying unitary method,

Number of girl students preferring classical music per student = 15/70

Now we have to find number of girls preferring classical music per 350 people.

It will be given as:

\frac{15}{70}*350

=75

Answer: If a population contains 350 people , then 75 girls prefer classical music.

A random sample of 20 houses selected from a city showed that the mean size of these houses is 1880 square feet with a standard
azamat

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that for a  random sample of 20 houses selected from a city showed that the mean size of these houses is 1880 square feet with a standard deviation of 320 square feet.

X, the sizes of houses is Normal

Hence sample mean will be normal with

Mean = 1880

and std dev = \frac{320}{\sqrt{20} } \\=71.5542

For 90% confidence interval critical value for t with degree of freedom 19 is

1.328

Confidence interval upper bound

= mean + margin of error

= 1880+1.328*71.55\\=1975

Option C is right

PLEASE HELP ME NOW!!
timama [110]

Answer:

Twice a number increased by five - 2x + 5

Five decreased by twice a number- 5 - 2x

Twice the difference of a number and five- 2(x - 5)

Twice the sum of a number and five= 2(x + 5)

Five subtracted from twice a number= 2x - 5

Twice a number, less five= 2x - 5

Is it possible to have more than one (x,y)(x,y) pair that is a solution to both equations? Explain or show your reasoning
lesya692 [45]

Answer with step-by-step explanation:

Yes, it is possible to have more that one (x,y) pair because of the distributive property.

6x + 4y = 34. If this is the case, we have to find 2 numbers that sum up to 34.

  • x = 3
  • y = 4

5x - 27 = 15. If we are going to calculate this equation, you need to reverse the equation. 15 + 27 = 42 = 5x. If 42 = 5x, we have to divide 42 by 5, which is 8.4

Hope this helped! (brainliest please)

Two vehicles are driving along a straight roadway at a constant speed. At a certain point in time, a car is 1.2 miles away from
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The expression for the total distance between the car and the landmark in terms of the number of hours spent driving is given as follows;

1.2 = 65 × t

Where t = 1.2/65 = 0.0185 h = 66.46 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

Distance, d between car and landmark = 1.2 miles

Speed of car = 65 miles/hr

Distance between truck and landmark = 0.7 miles

Speed of car = 55 miles/hr

The expression for the total distance between the car and the landmark as a function of time t is given as follows;

Distance, d = Speed, v × Time, t

Therefore, the expression for the total distance between the car and the landmark in terms of the number of hours spent driving is given as follows;

1.2 = 65 × t

Where t = 1.2/65 = 0.0185 h = 66.46 seconds.
