Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let 25 % copper=x kg

75 % copper=(100-x) kg

0.25 x+(100-x)*0.75=100*0.61

25x+7500-75 x=6100

-50 x=-1400

50 x=1400

5x=140

x=28

25 % of Copper=28 kg

75 % of Copper=100-28=72 kg

From the set (76, 77, 78), use substitution to determine which value of x makes the equation true
jeyben [28]

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 4 by 76, 77, and 78.

4 * 76 = 304

4 * 77 = 308

4 * 78 = 312

304 = 304, so C is the correct answer.

Hope this helps!

Calculate the original price of these items before the
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

50 and 30.94

Step-by-step explanation:

  • a

The coat cost 46.5 pounds after a 7 percent reduction

so we can write:

  • 46.5⇒ (100-7)⇒ 93 percent
  • x(the initial price) ⇒ 100 percent

using the proprtionality relation:

x= (100*46.5)/93 = 50

so the initial price of the coat is 50 pounds

  • b

The jumper costs 32.8 pounds after an increase of 6 percent

so:

  • 32.8⇒(100+6)⇒ 106 percent
  • x (the initial price)⇒ 100 percent

using proportionality:

x= (100*32.8)/106 = 30.94

the initial price is 30.94 pounds

Lifetime of $1 Bills The average lifetime of circulated $1 bills is 18 months. A researcher believes that the average lifetime i
OLEGan [10]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Let \mu be the population mean lifetime of circulated $1 bills.

By considering the given information , we have :-

H_0:\mu=18\\\\H_a:\mu\neq18

Since the alternative hypotheses is two tailed so the test is a two tailed test.

We assume that the lifetime of circulated $1 bills is normally distributed.

Given : Sample size :  n=50 , which is greater than 30 .

It means the sample is large so we use z-test.

Sample mean : \overline{x}=18.8

Standard deviation : \sigma=2.8

Test statistic for population mean :-

z=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

\Rightarrow\ z=\dfrac{18.8-18}{\dfrac{2.8}{\sqrt{50}}}\approx2.02

The p-value= 2P(z>2.02)=0.0433834

Since the p-value (0.0433834) is greater than the significance level (0.02) , so we do not reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, we conclude that we do not have enough evidence to support the alternative hypothesis that the average lifetime of a circulated $1 bill differs from 18 months.
