Answer:

Notebook is $4

Thumb drive is $23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let notebooks be x and thumb drives be y

6x+7y=$185

14x+12y=$332

These two are simultaneous equation. Multiplying the first equation by 7 and second by 3 we obtain

42x+49y=$1295

42x+36y=$996

Subtracting the third equation from the fourth

996-1295=-$299

(36-49)y=-23y

-23y=-$299

y=$299/13=$23

To get the value of x, we substitute the value of y into the first equation

6x+(7*23)=$185

6x=$185-$161

6x=$24

x=$4

Therefore, price of notebook is $4, price of thumb drive is $23

Answer: B. H_0:p_1=p_2

H_a:p_1>p_2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p_1 be the proportion of all U.S. adults that smoked in 1995. Let p_2 denote the proportion of all U.S. adults that smoked in 2000.

Objective for the study : Whether the proportion of U.S. adults that smoke declined during the 5-year period between the samples.

i.e. p_1>p_2

Alternative hypothesis(H_a) is the statement containing population  parameter that shows there is significant difference between the groups being tested.

⇒ H_a:p_1>p_2

Null hypothesis(H_0) is the statement containing population parameter that shows there is no significant difference between the groups being tested.

⇒ H_0:p_1=p_2

Hence, The hypotheses to test in this problem are

H_0:p_1=p_2

H_a:p_1>p_2

Hence, the correct answer is B. H_0:p_1=p_2

H_a:p_1>p_2

find an equation of the tangent line to the curve at the given point. y=sqrt(x) (1,1) Ive never been good with these equations a
Nady [450]
Equation of a tangent line of a curve is:
y- y0 = f´ (x0) (x - x0 ).   In this case: x0=1, y0=1
f´(x)=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x} }(Derivation)
f´(x0)=\frac{1}{2}
y - 1 = 1/2 ( x - 1 )
y - 1 = 1/2 x - 1/2
y = 1/2 x - 1/2 + 1
y =\frac{1}{2}x+ \frac{1}{2}
