If the first one is 4 and the third one is three more that makes it 4+3=7 but i feel like u want the second side and that would be 4 i think

What is the difference between solving an equation and an inequality?
statuscvo [17]
When you solve an equation, it has an equal sign (=) and inequalities do not. When you solve an inequality the answer isn't exact (depending on the sign ie: <, >, etc...) equations usually are exact answers. other than that, I don't think there is a big difference in solving them.

A new sales training program has been instituted at a rent-to-own company. Prior to the training, 10 employees were tested on th
Lunna [17]

Answer:

C. H0: µD = 0, HA: µD <0

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that the paired sample data are simple random samples and that the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. So for this case is better apply a paired t test.  

A paired t-test is used to compare two population means where you have two samples in which observations in one sample can be paired with observations in the other sample. For example if we have Before-and-after observations (This problem) we can use it.  

Let put some notation  

x=test value for pretest , y = test value for posttest  

x: 66, 94, 87, 84, 76, 88

y: 75, 100, 93, 85, 75, 90  

The system of hypothesis for this case are:  

Null hypothesis: \mu_D \geq 0  

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_D < 0  

Because the difference D is defined as Pretest-Postest. And we want to see if the postets score is higher than the pretest with th training.

The first step is calculate the difference d_i=x_i-y_i and we obtain this:  

d: -9, -6, -6, -1, 1, -2

The second step is calculate the mean difference  

\bar d= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}= \frac{-23}{6}=-3.833  

The third step would be calculate the standard deviation for the differences, and we got:  

s_d =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (d_i -\bar d)^2}{n-1} =3.763  

The 4 step is calculate the statistic given by :  

t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{-3.833 -0}{\frac{3.763}{\sqrt{6}}}=-2.494  

The next step is calculate the degrees of freedom given by:  

df=n-1=6-1=5  

Now we can calculate the p value, since we have a left tailed test the p value is given by:  

p_v =P(t_{(5)}  

The p value is lower than the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05, so then we can conclude that we can reject the null hypothesis. So we can say that the differences between Pretest and Posttest \mu_{pretest}-\mu_{postest} are less than 0.

A cruise line is planning its menu for the next trip. Vacationers like eating steak, lobster, and chicken. The cruise line has d
pychu [463]

Answer: They should order 160 steak, 80 lobster and 260 chicken. The total cost for the meals would be $4460

Step-by-step explanation:

The cruiser will have 400 passangers on board. By taking into account that the cruise line decided to buy 25% more of meals than bookings, we can conclude that in order to calculate the ammount of meals they will order, we have to take the number of passangers on board, 400, and add to it 25% more. So the number of meal orders will be 400 + (1/4 * 400) = 500.

Let's use the letter S to simbolize the ammount of steak they should buy, with L the ammount of lobster, and with C the ammount of chicken. The sum of those ammounts should be 500, so we deduce this formula

S + L + C = 500

we can replace C with 500 - S - L. Since at least forty percent of the passangers will have steak dinner and at least twenty percent will have lobster, we obtain this relations:

  • S \geq 400*0.4 = 160
  • L \geq 400*0.2 = 80

We note f the total cost of the meals (in $). The value of f will depend on the values of S and L. Using the information we are given about the cost of each dinner, and recalling that C was 500- S - L, we can represent f by this formula

f(S,L) = 10*S + 13*L + (500-S-L) * 7

Which is equal to 10*S + 13*L + 3500 - 7*S - 7*L = 3500 + 3*S  + 6*L

We want to minimaze the value of f, since 3*S + 6*L will get bigger as we use bigger values of S and L, then we will be in a good position if we take the values of S and L as low as possible.

With the restriction we obtained, the lowest values of S and L we can take are 160 and 80 respectively; so we take those values. In conclusion  

  • S = 160 (number of steak)
  • L = 80 (number of lobster)
  • C = 500-160-80 = 260 (number of chicken)

The total cost of the meals is

160*10 + 80*13 + 260*7 = 4460
