Answer:

Micaela is 17

Step-by-step explanation:

s+2=m

(s+2+4)+(s+4)=40

(s+6)+(s+4)=40

2s+10=40

40-10=30

2s=30

30/2= 15

s=15

{s+2=m}

15+2=m

m=17

Alex17521 [72]

Answer: 1.645

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The quality control manager of a soda manufacturing company wishes to use a significant level of 0.05 to test whether the variabilities in the amount of soda in the company's 16 OZ bottles is more than the variabilities in the company's 12 OZ bottles.

Let \sigma_1^2 represents the variance for 16 OZ bottles and \sigma_2^2 represents the variance for 12 OZ bottles.

The Null and Alternative Hypothesis will be  :-

H_0:\sigma_1^2\geq\sigma_2^2

H_1:\sigma_1^2, since alternative hypothesis is left-tailed , then the test is left-tailed test.

By using the standard normal distribution table for z, the critical value for this hypothesis:-

z_{\alpha}=z_{0.05}=1.645

A candle is 9 inches long. Ronnie lights the candle and records the height of the candle, y inches, for x hours.​
DochEvi [55]

In the future, please post the full problem with all included instructions. After doing a quick internet search, I found your problem listed somewhere else. It mentions two parts (a) and (b)

Part (a) asked for the equation of the line in y = mx+b form

That would be y = -2x+9

This is because each time y goes down by 2, x goes up by 1. We have slope = rise/run = -2/1 = -2. This indicates that the height of the candle decreases by 2 inches per hour. The slope represents the rate of change.

The initial height of the candle is the y intercept b value. So we have m = -2 and b = 9 lead us from y = mx+b to y = -2x+9

----------------------------------------------------------------

Part (b) then asks you to graph the equation. Because this is a linear equation, it produces a straight line. We only need 2 points at minimum to graph any line. Let's plot (0,9) and (1,7) on the same xy grid. These two points are the first two rows of the table. Plot those two points and draw a straight line through them. The graph is below
