I think the answer is 30, because if 134 +16 is 5 times the number of books Beezus reads, than just divide by 4 for the answer of 30

A cashier earns $7 an hour. If x is the number of hours worked, which function represents the cashier’s earnings? y = 7x y = x 7

Vilka [71]

I think its 7x since x represents the hours she worked. So lets say that she worked for 5 hours this day. It would be 5*7 which is $35. So it is 7x and if there is any choices you might say it as well so we can help you better

If 2x2 + y2 = 17 then evaluate the second derivative of y with respect to x when x = 2 and y = 3. Round your answer to 2 decimal

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

y''=-1.26

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that $2x^2+y^2=17$

We have evaluate the second order derivative of y w.r.t. x when x=2 and y=3.

Differentiate w.r.t x

Then , we get

$4x+2yy'=0$

$2x+yy'=0$

$yy'=-2x$

$y'=-\frac{2x}{y}$

Again differentiate w.r.t.x

Then , we get

$2+(y')^2+yy''=0$ $(u\cdot v)'=u'v+v'u)$

$2+(y')^2+yy''=0$

Using value of y'

$yy''=-2-(-\frac{2x}{y})^2$

$y''=-\frac{2+(-\frac{2x}{y})^2}{y}$

Substitute x=2 and y=3

Then, we get $y''=-\frac{2+(\frac{4}{3})^2}{3}$

$y''=-\frac{18+16}{9\times 3}=-\frac{34}{27}$

Hence,y''=-1.26

During the first 15 weeks of the 2016 season of a certain professional football league, the home team won 141 of the 241 regul

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The answer is 2.0190

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>From the given question,</em>

<em>We recall that,</em>

<em>p = 141/241 = 0.5850</em>

<em>so, p = 0.5</em>

<em>The Hypothesis is:</em>

<em>H₀ : P = 0.5, this means that H0:50% of the games played will be won</em>

<em>vs</em>

<em>H₁ : P > 0.5, This indicates that, win is greater than 0.5 due to home field advantages.</em>

<em>n=241,x=141</em>

<em>Then,</em>

<em>SD(p)=√(p*q/n)=√(0.5*0.5/141)=0.0421</em>

<em>z = p - p/ SD (p) = 0.5850 - 0.5/0.0421 = 0.085/0.0421 =2.0190</em>

<em>therefore, there is strong evidence that there is home field advantages in professional football.</em>
