Answer:

  • <u>The number of groups in 3 is 4 groups.</u>
  • <u>The number of groups in 5 is 7 groups.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of groups in 3 ⇒ x

Let the number of groups in 5 ⇒ y

There are 11 groups. ⇒ x + y = 11         →(1)

There are 47 people. ⇒ 3x + 5y = 47  →(2)

Solve (1) and (2) to get x and y.

From (1)  ⇒ y = 11 - x  →(3)

By substitution from (3) at (2) with y

∴ 3x + 5(11-x) = 47

3x + 55 - 5x = 47

-2x = 47 - 55 = -8

∴ x = -8/-2 = 4

∴ y = 11 - x = 11 - 4 = 7

So, the number of groups in 3 is 4 groups.

the number of groups in 5 is 7 groups.

In a random sample of 5 residents of the state of Texas, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 1.9 pounds with a standa
sammy [17]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2><h2 />

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x} \pm\ t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Given : Sample size : n= 5, since n<30 , so the test we use here is t-test.

Sample mean : \overline{x}=1.9\text{ pounds}

Standard deviation: \sigma=0.89\text{ pounds}

Significance level : 1-\alpha:1-0.99=0.01

By using the standard normal distribution table , the critical value corresponds to the given significance level will be :-

t_{n-1,\alpha/2}=t_{5-1,0.01/2}=t_{4,0.005}=4.604

Now, the 99% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Texas will be :-

1.9\pm\ (4.604)\dfrac{0.89}{\sqrt{5}}\\\\\approx1.9\pm1.832\\\\=(1.9-1.832,1.9+1.832)=(0.068,\ 3.732)

Hence, the 99% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Texas  = (0.068, 3.732)

A figure is created by using four semicircles and a rectangle. which is closest to the area of the figure? ​
Katena32 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

area of rrctangle:

12×8= 96cm²

now if rectangle dissapears and then we "glue" what's left, we gonna get two circles

area of circle which gas diameter of 12cm( so radius will be 6cm)will be

πr²=36π≈113.04

another circles radius is 4cm,so area is:

16π≈50.25

sum of all areas: S≈96+113.04+50.25≈259.28cm2
