The value of the expression is 4.

We can find this by taking the original equation and plugging in 3 every time we see an x.

$\frac{17 + x}{x + 2}$

$\frac{17 + 3}{3 + 2}$

$\frac{20}{5}$

A recent study found that 51 children who watched a commercial for Walker Crisps (potato chips) featuring a long-standing sports

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The claim is that the mean amount of Walker Crisps eaten was significantly higher for the children who watched the sports celebrity- endorsed Walker Crisps commercial

The kind of test to use is a t -test because a t -test is used to check if there is a difference between means of a population

$t = 3.054$

The p-value is $p-value = P(Z > 3.054) = 0.0011291$

The conclusion is

There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean amount of Walker Crisps eaten was significantly higher for the children who watched the sports celebrity- endorsed Walker Crisps commercial

The test statistics is

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The first sample size is $n_1 = 51$

The first sample mean is $\mu_1 = 36$

The second sample size is $n_2 = 41$

The second sample size is $\mu_2 = 25$

The first standard deviation is $\sigma _1 = 21.4 \ g$

The second standard deviation is $\sigma _2 = 12.8 \ g$

The level of significance is $\alpha = 0.05$

The null hypothesis is $H_o : \mu_1 = \mu_ 2$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : \mu_1 > \mu_2$

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{\= x_1 - \= x_2}{ \sqrt{ \frac{s_1^2}{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2} } }$

=> $t = \frac{ 36 - 25}{ \sqrt{ \frac{ 21.4^2}{51} + \frac{ 12.8^2}{41} } }$

=> $t = 3.054$

The p-value is mathematically represented as

$p-value = P(Z > 3.054)$

Generally from the z table

$P(Z > 3.054) = 0.0011291$

=> $p-value = P(Z > 3.054) = 0.0011291$

From the values obtained we see that $p-value < \alpha$ so the null hypothesis is rejected

Thus the conclusion is

There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean amount of Walker Crisps eaten was significantly higher for the children who watched the sports celebrity- endorsed Walker Crisps commercial

NeX [460]

Answer: Marci: 60 minutes

Bobby: 30 minutes

Max: 90 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

50% of 60 is 30.

100% of 60 is 60, plus 50% is 60+30, which gets you 90.

I don't know the answer because of how zoomed in it is. But, you could make a cordinate grid and plot all of the numbers. Then, you would connect all of the lines and you will see that one line is missing in the parallelogram. You finish off that line yourself and write down the cordanite that you needed to complete the parallelogram. You will lastly put U=answer (the cordanite you got from finishing off the parallelogram).

Use a normal approximation to find the probability of the indicated number of voters. In this case assume that 150 eligible vote

alexdok [17]

The number of people who voted follows a binomial distribution with probability of having voted $p=0.22$ and $n=150$ subjects, which means the approximating normal distribution should have mean $np=33$ and standard deviation $\sqrt{np(1-p)}\approx5.07$ .

With the continuity correction, you have
