375 mi^2 15

--------------- = ------ = 3/2

250 mi^2 10

The ratio of the population of Henderson County to that of Perquimans is 3/2.

Perry currently has $180 dollars and is spending $6 per day. Nick has no money

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

After 13 days (Rounded) If you dont round it's $\frac{90}{7}$ or 12 $\frac{6}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Perry: 180 - 6x = 8x

180 - 6x + 6x = 8x + 6x

180 = 14x

180/14 = 14x/14

90/7 = x

Correlation always implies causation. Is this statement correct?

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Correlation does not always imply causation. (It's not correct)

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation tests 2 variables' relationship, but just because they are related does not mean they necessarily cause each other.

Use the information provided to determine a 95% confidence interval for the population variance. A researcher was interested in

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the population variance is (8.80, 32.45).

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for the population variance is given as follows:

$\frac{(n-1)\cdot s^{2}}{\chi^{2}_{\alpha/2}}\leq \sigma^{2}\leq \frac{(n-1)\cdot s^{2}}{\chi^{2}_{1-\alpha/2}}$

It is provided that:

<em>n</em> = 20

<em>s</em> = 3.9

Confidence level = 95%

⇒ <em>α</em> = 0.05

Compute the critical values of Chi-square:

$\chi^{2}_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}=\chi^{2}_{0.05/2, (20-1)}=\chi^{2}_{0.025,19}=32.852\\\\\chi^{2}_{1-\alpha/2, (n-1)}=\chi^{2}_{1-0.05/2, (20-1)}=\chi^{2}_{0.975,19}=8.907$

*Use a Chi-square table.

Compute the 95% confidence interval for the population variance as follows:

$\frac{(n-1)\cdot s^{2}}{\chi^{2}_{\alpha/2}}\leq \sigma^{2}\leq \frac{(n-1)\cdot s^{2}}{\chi^{2}_{1-\alpha/2}}$

$\frac{(20-1)\cdot (3.9)^{2}}{32.852}\leq \sigma^{2}\leq \frac{(20-1)\cdot (3.9)^{2}}{8.907}\\\\8.7967\leq \sigma^{2}\leq 32.4453\\\\8.80\leq \sigma^{2}\leq 32.45$

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the population variance is (8.80, 32.45).

If k is a positive integer and n = k(k + 7), is n divisible by 6 ? (1) k is odd. (2) When k is divided by 3, the remainder is 2.

olganol [36]

Answer:

1.) Yes

2.) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

n = k(k + 7)

If k is a positive integer and n = k(k + 7), is n divisible by 6 ?

(1) k is odd. Yes.

Let assume that k = 3

Then, n = 3(3 + 7)

n = 3 × 10

n = 30.

30 is divisible by 6.

(2) When k is divided by 3, the remainder is 2. That is,

Let k = 5

Then,

5/3 = 1 remainder 2

Substitute k into the equation

n = k(k + 7)

n = 5(5 + 7)

n = 5 × 12

n = 60

And 60 is divisible by 6.

Therefore, the answer to both questions is Yes.
