One pound of candies costs $3.50.

1 answer:

6 0

Set it up as a proportion problem. $2.10 is to x pounds as $3.50 is to 1 pound

=$2.10/x pounds= $3.50/1 pound
Cross multiply
=($2.10 * 1)=($3.50 * x)
=2.10=3.50x
Divide both sides by 3.50
0.6= x
x= 0.6=6/10= 3/5

He can purchase 0.6 (or 3/5 in fraction terms) pounds for $2.10.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

The correct value is t* = 2.797.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 25 - 1 = 24

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 24 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a two-tailed confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995$ . So we have T = 2.797.

Over [174]

Answer:

Population : all the steaks Tessa can cook

Parameter : minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit

Sample : two random thermometer readings

Statistic : minimum sample reading of 165 degrees Fahrenheit

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall the definitions of these statistical concepts and match it with the information that were provided to us:

Populations can be the complete set of all similar items that exist, in our case, all the steaks that Tessa can cook.
Parameter is is a value that describes a characteristic of an entire population, such as the minimum temperature of the steaks Tessa is cooking in Fahrenheit degrees.
Sample is a subset of the population, in our case, the two random readings of the thermometer Tessa did.
Statistic is a characteristic of a sample, for our problem, it's the minimum reading of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

6. what point does this line pass through, which is the basis of this equation? y-3=3(x+1)

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

ur points are gonna be x1 and y1

y - 3 = 3(x + 1)

so ur y point is gonna be -3

but ur x point is gonna be -1.......because 3(x + 1) is the same as 3(x - (-1)

ur point is (-3,-1)
