Answer:

0.29

Missing Problem Statement:

The table shows the number of hours, to the nearest half hour per day, that teens spend texting according to a random  

sample of 870 teenagers aged 13–18 in a large urban city.  

Hours          0     0.5    1.0   1.5  2.0   2.5  3.0  3.5  4.0  4.5  5.0

Frequency  170  82    220  153  92   58   40    15  12   18    10

Step by Step Explanation:

First we need to find the estimated probability distribution for teens spending time texting.

For that we need,

Total sample size = 870 teenagers (as given in the problem statement)

Estimated probability distribution (Frequency*) = \frac{Frequency.Sample.Size.of.that.hour}{Total.Sample.Size}

Example:

Estimated probability distribution that teens spend 0 hours=\frac{170}{870} =0.20

Similarly,

Hours          0     0.5    1.0     1.5    2.0    2.5    3.0    3.5    4.0    4.5    5.0

Frequency*0.2  0.09  0.25  0.18  0.11  0.07  0.05  0.02  0.01  0.02  0.01

We need, estimated probability distribution that teens spend less than an hour per day, so from the above result:

<u>Estimated probability distribution of teens spending 0 hour per day =0.2 </u>

<u>Estimated probability distribution of teens spending 0.5 hour per day = 0.09 </u>

Estimated probability distribution of teens spending less than an hour per day= 0.2+0.09=0.29

Answer:

0.29

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Retrieving the missing data, setting the data orderly in a table.

(Check it below)

2) Add a column for the Relative Frequency. Divide each frequency by the total 870.

3) To estimate probability is always important to work with Relative Frequency. Notice that the question asks the probability of teens that text <1 hour per day, in light yellow.

Adding it up 0.2 +0.09=0.29

A(n - 3) +8= bn for n please help me
Papessa [141]

Given equation: A(n - 3) +8= bn.

Solution: On the left side of the equation we have A(n-3).

We don't have any sign in between A and parenthesis (n-3).

So, we need to multiply A and (n-3).

We need to apply distributive property to multiply A and (n-3).

Distributing A over (n-3), we get

A(n-3) = A*n - 3*A = An -3A.

Substituting this value in original equation,

An -3A +8= bn.

We need to solve it for n, so we get n terms on a side.

We have An on left side, we need to get rid n from left side.

Subtracting An from both sides, we get

An -3A +8-An= bn-An.

-3A +8 = bn - An.

We can see n is a common factor on rigth side in bn-an.

Factoring out n on right side from bn-an.

-3A +8 = (b - A)n.

Dividing both sides by (b-A),

\frac{(-3A+8)}{(b-A)} = \frac{(b-A)n}{(b-A)}

On right (b-A) paranthiss cancelled and we get n on right side.

\frac{(-3A+8)}{(b-A)} =n   Final answer.

So, that would be our final answer

n = (-3A+8)/(b-A)

Each time Kristine gets paid, she spends $20 and saves the rest. If the amount Kristine earns is represented by x and the amount
faust18 [17]

We are given that Kristine spends $20 and saves the rest each time she get paid.

We can use slope-intercept form y=mx+b to represent the equation.

Where x represents the amount Kristine earns and y represents the amount she saves.

Kristine spends $20. Therefore b= -20.

Plugging mx as just x and b=-20.

<h3>y = x-20.</h3><h3>If we plug y=0, we get </h3><h3>0 = x-20</h3><h3>x=20.</h3><h3>We can see in 4th option we have x-intercept =20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 4th option. </h3><h3 />
