The restaurant used 3 pounds of potatoes, 3/8 of that would be 1.125. Thus, the restaurant used 1.125 pounds of beef during the lunch rush.

Hi student, let me help you out! :)

We are asked to find the slope of this graph; we are provided with two points:

\star~\mathrm{(6,0)}

\star~\mathrm{(0,-5)}

\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}

  • What we need in order to find the slope are two points and the slope formula.

Here's the formula:

\star~\boxed{\mathrm{\cfrac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}}}

Where

y2 and y1 are y-coordinates

x2 and x1 are x-coordinates

Substitute the values:

\star~\mathrm{\cfrac{-5-0}{0-6}}}

Simplify!

\star~\mathrm{\cfrac{-5}{-6}}}

Simplify more!

\star~\mathrm{\cfrac{5}{6}}

Hope it helps you out! :D

A realtor would like to create a 95% confidence interval for the average price of a house in Franklin County, Ohio. To accomplis
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

320128-1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=315839.52    

320128+1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=324416.48    

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (315839.52;324416.48)    

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

\bar X=320128 represent the sample mean

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

\sigma=50324 represent the population standard deviation

n=529 represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of \alpha=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)".And we see that z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

320128-1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=315839.52    

320128+1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=324416.48    

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (315839.52;324416.48)

VikaD [51]
The total weight being carried is
   3545 +1758 +3697 = 9000 . . . . . pounds

Each ton is 2000 pounds, so together the trucks are carrying
   (9000 lb) × (1 t)/(2000 lb) = 4.5 t

Altogether, the 3 trucks are carrying 4.5 tons of topsoil.
