Answer:

4.425

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to change 5 % to a decimal.  Move the decimal two places to the left

.05  is 5% in decimal form

5% of 88.5

.05* 88.5

4.425

5% is just another way of writing 5/100

So we have 5/100 of 88.5 → 5100×88.5

This is the same as 5×88.5/100=5×0.885

But 5 is 1/2×10

So we can write 5×0.885 as 1/2×10×0.885

=1/2×8.85=4.425

hope it helps!

Describe the symmetry of these functions
Oduvanchick [21]
If it was line symmetry it would need to repeat the same shape twice, which the first follows but the second doesn’t.
if it was rotational, you would need to be able to take the shape in the top right and rotate it counterclockwise or clockwise to get the shape that locks in place. that doesn’t follow that.
both line and rotational symmetry is incorrect because the first example would need to lock up inside the right side of that example.

the answer is C

An investigator wants to assess whether the mean m = the weight of passengers flying on small planes exceeds the FAA guideline o
stira [4]

Answer:

H_{0}: \mu= 185 and H_{a}: \mu > 185

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis H_{0} states that a population parameter (such as the mean, the standard deviation, and so on) is equal to a hypothesized value. We can write the null hypothesis in the form H_{0}: parameter = value

In this context, the investigator's null hypothesis should be that the average total weight is no different than the reported value by the FAA. We can write it in this form H_{0}: \mu= 185.

The alternative hypothesis H_{a} states that a population parameter is smaller, greater, or different than the hypothesized value in the null hypothesis. We can write the alternative hypothesis in one of three forms

H_{a}: parameter > value\\H_{a}: parameter < value\\H_{a}: parameter \neq value

The investigator wants to know if the average weight of passengers flying on small planes exceeds the FAA guideline of the average total weight of 185 pounds. He should use H_{a}: \mu > 185 as his alternative hypothesis.
