Jane sells 8 times as many Volvos as Melissa. If the difference in their sales is 35, how many cars did Jane sell?

Mathematics

Usimov [2.4K]3 years ago
8 0
Here we have 2 variables we need to calculate:
x - how many Volvos Jane sold
y - how many Volvos Melissa sold

We write system of equations:
x = 8*y
x - y = 35
------------
8y - y = 35
7y = 35
y = 5
x = 8*5 = 40

Jane sold 40 cars.

Two college instructors are interested in whether or not there is any variation in the way they grade math exams. They each grad
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Since the calculated value of F = 1.4397 is less than the critical value of

F (9,9)= 2.4403 we conclude that the  first instructor's variance is smaller and reject H0.

Step-by-step explanation:

1)Formulate the hypothesis that first variance is equal or greater than the second variance

H0: σ₁²≥σ₂²  against the claim  that the first instructor's variance is smaller

 Ha: σ₁²< σ₂²

2) Test Statistic F= s₂²/s₁²

F= 84.8/ 58.9=  1.4397

3)Degrees of Freedom = n1-1= 10-1= 9  and n2 = 10-1= 9

4)Critical value   at 10 % significance level= F(9,9)= 2.4403

5)Since the calculated value of F = 1.4397 is less than the critical value of

F (9,9)= 2.4403 we conclude that the  first instructor's variance is smaller and reject H0.

Which of the following is the graph of the quadratic function y = x2 - 6x - 16?
charle [14.2K]

The graph of the function will have  zero of -2 and 8 respectively

<h3>Quadratic function</h3>

Quadratic functions are function that has a leading degree of 2. Given the quadratic equation

y = x^2 - 6x - 16

Factorize

y = x^2 - 6x - 16

y = x^2 - 8x  + 2x - 16

y = x(x - 8) + 2(x-8)

y = (x+2)(x-8)

The graph of the function is attached below
