$20 minus $15 = $5 difference
$5 divided by $0.20 = 25 checks
*Now the accounts are even, except I haven't done the checks for the second account.*
25 checks times $0.10 = $2.50
$2.50 divided by $0.20 = 12.5 checks (round up in this case to 13)
*Now, you need to do 13 more checks on the second account*
13 checks times $0.10 = $1.30
$1.30 divided by $0.20 = 6.5 checks (round up in this case to 7)
*Now, you need to do 7 more checks on the second account*
7 checks times $0.10 = $0.70
$0.70 divided by $0.20 = 3.5 checks (round up in this case to 4)
*Now, you need to do 7 more checks on the second account*
4 checks times $0.10 = $0.40
$0.40 divided by $0.20 = 2 checks
*Now, you need to do 2 more checks on the second account*
2 checks times $0.10 = $0.20
$0.20 divided by $0.20 = 1 check
*Now, you need to do 1 more checks on the second account*
1 checks times $0.10 = $0.10
$0.10 divided by $0.20 = 0.5 checks (round up in this case to 1)
*Now, you need to do 1 more checks on the second account*
1 checks times $0.10 = $0.10
$0.10 divided by $0.20 = 0.5 checks
25 + 13 + 7 + 4 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 53 checks

Check your work!
Account #1- $15 + (53 times $0.20) = $25.60
Account #2- $20 + (53 times $0.10) = $25.30

Answer
53 checks

How many solutions does this system have? y = 3 x minus 5. y = negative x + 4. one two an infinite number no solution
AveGali [126]

Answer:

One

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

y = 3x-5 ....(1)

y = -x+4 .....(2)

We can solve the above equations using substitution method. Put the value of y from equation (1) to equation (2) such that,

3x-5 = -x+4\\\\3x+x = 5+4\\\\4x = 9\\\\x=\dfrac{9}{4}

Put the value of x in equation (1) we get :

y = 3x-5\\\\y = 3\times \dfrac{9}{4}-5\\\\y=\dfrac{7}{4}

It means that the value of x is \dfrac{9}{4} and the value of y is \dfrac{7}{4}. Hence, the given equations has only one solution.

A student group claims that first-year students at a university must study 2.5 hours (150 minutes) per night during the school w
AlekseyPX

Answer:

We have strong evidence that on average, students study less than 150 minutes per night during the school week

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution:

mean     μ₀ = 150

Sample:

Sample size    n = 272

Sample mean   x = 141

Sample standard deviation  s  = 66

The standard error of the sample mean  SE = σ /√n

SE = 66/√272

SE = 66 / 16,49

SE = 4

Test Hypothesis:

Null hypothesis                            H₀             x  =   μ₀

Alternative hypothesis                Hₐ            x <    μ₀

z(s)  test statistics is:

z(s)  =  ( x  -  μ₀ ) / s/√n

z(s) = - 9 /4

z(s) =  -  2,25

p-value  for that z(s)      p-value  = 0,0122

Then for α =  0,05 p-value < 0,05

We are in the rejection region we need to reject H₀
