Sheila loves to eat chicken tenders. A small order comes with 5 chicken
aev [14]

Answer:  The required number of large order of chicken tenders is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Sheila loves to eat chicken tenders. A small order comes with 5 chicken  tenders, and a large order comes with 8 chicken tenders.

Last month, Sheila ordered chicken tenders a total of 7 times. She received a total of 50 chicken tenders.

We are to find the number of large chicken tenders received by Sheila.

Let x and y represents the number of small orders and large orders respectively of chicken tenders.

Then, according to the given information, we have

x+y=7\\\\\Rightarrow x=7-y~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

and

5x+8y=50\\\\\Rightarrow 5(7-y)+8y=50~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{Using equation (i)}]\\\\\Rightarrow 35-5y+8y=50\\\\\Rightarrow 3y=50-35\\\\\Rightarrow 3y=15\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{15}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow y=5.

Thus, the required number of large order of chicken tenders is 5.

A Travel Weekly International Air Transport Association survey asked business travelers about the purpose for their most recent
siniylev [52]

Answer:

(a) P (p' > 0.25) = 0.

(b) P (0.15 < p' < 0.20) = 0.7784.

(c) P (133 < X < 171) = 0.2205

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>p</em> = proportion of business trip that were for  internal company visit.

It is provided that 19% responded that it was for an internal company visit, i.e.

<em>p</em> = 0.19.

A sample of <em>n</em> = 950 business travelers are randomly selected.

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes <em>n</em> > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

 \mu_{\hat p}=p

The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

Thus, the distribution of \hat p is N (<em>μ</em> = 0.19, <em>σ </em>= 0.013).

(a)

Compute the probability that more than 25% of the business travelers say that the reason for their most recent business trip was an internal company visit as follows:

P (p' > 0.25) = P (Z > 4.62) = 0

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that more than 25% of the business travelers say that the reason for their most recent business trip was an internal company visit is 0.

(b)

Compute the probability that between 15% and 20% of the business travelers say that the reason for their most recent business trip was an internal company visit as follows:

P (0.15 < p' < 0.20) = P (-3.08 < Z < 0.77)

                               = P (Z < 0.77) - P (Z < -3.08)

                               = 0.7794 - 0.0010

                               = 0.7784

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that between 15% and 20% of the business travelers say that the reason for their most recent business trip was an internal company visit is 0.7784.

(c)

Compute the proportion of <em>X</em> = 133  and <em>X</em> = 171 as follows:

p' = 133/950 = 0.14

p' = 171/950 = 0.18

Compute the value of P (0.14 < p' < 0.20) as follows:

P (0.14 < p' < 0.18) = P (-3.85< Z < -0.77)

                               = P (Z < -0.77) - P (Z < -3.85)

                               = 0.2206- 0.0001

                               = 0.2205

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that between 133 and 171 of the business travelers say that the reason for their most recent business trip was an internal company visit is 0.2205.

A study looked at the effects various fertilizers had on corn
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

30mm

Step-by-step explanation:

The question "How much did the plant grow per day?​" is asking for the rate of the corn growth for one day, in the format height/day.

The rate given is over 6 days rather than 1 day:

180 mm in  6 days

The find the rate for one day, divide the height by the days.

180mm/6days = 30mm/1day

Therefore the plant grew 30mm per day.
