So, first lets define our variables:
let x = the number of dimes
let y = the number of nickels
so our first equation would be x+y = 16
Since dimes are 10 cents and nickels are 5 cents the next equation would be as follows:
.10x+.05y = 1.35
now change the first equation so y = -x+16
now substitute:
.10x+.05(-x+16) = 1.35
then multiply so you get .10x+-.05x+0.8=1.35
combine like terms and you get .05x+0.8 = 1.35
then subtract 0.8 from both sides and you get .05x = 0.55 then subtract
and you get x = 11 then substitute 11 for where x should be and you should get y = 5
So, you have 11 dimes and 5 nickels
The first step to determine the percentage of increase is to
compute for the difference of consumer price index in value.
231.11 (consumer price index for 2012) – 211.4 (consumer
price index for 2007) = 19.71 (increase)
To compute for the percentage of increase, you need to
compare the increase to the consumer price index for 2007.
19.71/211.4 = 9.3% increase
Is this a riddle?? Or are you really doing this :-(
Answer:
The sample 2 has a lowest value of SE corresponding to the least sample variability.
Step-by-step explanation:
As the value of the sample means and standard deviations are not given, as similar question is found online from which the values of data is follows
The data is as attached with the solution. From this data
Sample 1 has a mean of 34 and a SE of 5
Sample 2 has a mean of 30 and a SE of 2
Sample 3 has a mean of 26 and a SE of 3
Sample 4 has a mean of 38 and a SE of 5
As per the measure of the sample variability is linked with the value of SE or standard error. Which is lowest in the case of sample 2 .
So the sample 2 has a lowest value of SE corresponding to the least sample variability.
