Answer:

  60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the number of stickers Sophia has. Then the number Ethan has is (2/3)s. The transfer of 16 stickers can be described by the equation ...

  (s -16)/(2/3s +16) = 1/2 . . . . . sophia/ethan = 1/2 after the transfer

  2s -32 = 2/3s +16 . . . . . . . . .cross multiply

  4/3s = 48 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 32-2/3s

  s = (48)(3/4) = 36 . . . . . . . . .multiply by 3/4

Together, the total number of stickers held is s +(2/3)s = (5/3)s.

  5/3s = (5/3)(36) = 60 . . . . . total of Sophia's and Ethan's stickers

Together, Sophia and Ethan have 60 stickers.

A manufacturer of banana chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 436.0 gram setting. It
Vilka [71]

Answer:

We conclude that the machine is under filling the bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 436.0 gram

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 429.0 grams

Sample size, n = 40

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = 23.0 grams

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu = 436.0\text{ grams}\\H_A: \mu < 436.0\text{ grams}

We use one-tailed(left) z test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }

Putting all the values, we have

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{429 - 436}{\frac{23}{\sqrt{40}} } = -1.92

Now, z_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance } = -1.64

Since,  

z_{stat} < z_{critical}

We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, we conclude that the machine is under filling the bags.

Answer:

Value of k is \displaystyle\frac{3}{8}      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

f(x) = kx^2, 0\leq x \leq 2\\~~~~~~~= 0, \text{ otherwise}

where x is the time elapses between the end of the hour and the end of the lecture.

We have to find the values of k.

Since, f(x) is the pdf, then,

\displaystyle\int^\infty_{-\infty} f(x) = 1\\\\\displaystyle\int^2_{0} f(x) = 1\\\\\displaystyle\int^2_{0} kx^2 = 1\\\\k\bigg[\frac{x^3}{3}\bigg]^2_0 = 1\\\\k\times \frac{8}{3} = 1\\\\k = \frac{3}{8}

Hence, value of k is \displaystyle\frac{3}{8}
