2/5 kg of soul fills 1/3 of a container so 1 kg of sulfate in the container? Explain or show your reasoning
Softa [21]

Answer:

Yes, we can put 1 kg of the soul in the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

2/5 kg of soul fills 1/3 of a container.

It means if we put 2/5 kg of the soul 3 times in the container then the container will be full.

\frac{2}{5}+\frac{2}{5}+\frac{2}{5}=\frac{6}{5}

It means \frac{6}{5} kgs of soul fill the container.

\frac{6}{5} is greater than 1 so it means we can put 1 kg of the soul in the container.

A recent survey of 50 executives who were laid off during a recent recession revealed it took a mean of 26 weeks for them to fin
drek231 [11]

Answer:

The pvalue of 0.0113 < 0.05 means that there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time to find another position is less than 28 weeks at the 5% level of significance

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is:

H_{0} = 28

The alternate hypotesis is:

H_{1} < 28

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

A recent survey of 50 executives who were laid off during a recent recession revealed it took a mean of 26 weeks for them to find another position.

This means that n = 50, X = 26

Assume the population standard deviation is 6.2 weeks.

This means that \sigma = 6.2

Does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time to find another position is less than 28 weeks at the 5% level of significance

We have to find the pvalue of Z, looking at the z-table, when \mu = 28. It if is lower than 0.05, it provides evidence.

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{26 - 28}{\frac{6.2}{\sqrt{50}}}

z = -2.28

z = -2.28 has a pvalue of 0.0113 < 0.05.

The pvalue of 0.0113 < 0.05 means that there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time to find another position is less than 28 weeks at the 5% level of significance

ololo11 [35]

5.21.

To find this, give both numbers decimal points before setting up a subtraction equation as so:

15.00 - 9.79

Then proceed to solve to get the final answer of 5.21.

Hope this helps!

A parent volunteer group is raising money by making custom hats to sell at school activities. They plan to sell the hats for $12
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

B. (12-6) n - 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of making hat = $6 per hat

Selling price = $12 per hat

Advert cost = $50

Number of hats made = n

The profit or money raised from the sales of hat:

Total Revenue from sales - total cost of production - advert cost

Total Revenue from sales = ($12 * n) = $12n

Total cost of production = ($6 * n) = $6n

Advert cost = $50

Hence,

12n - (6n + 50)

12n - 6n - 50

(12 - 6)n - 50
