Answer:

$\frac{1}{4} lbs/person$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question: Find the rate of change for the situation:

A chef cooks 9 lbs of chicken for 36 people and 17 lbs of chicken for 68 people.

Given: 1st situation, A chef cook 9 lbs chicken for 36 people.

2nd situation, chef cook 17 lbs chicken for 68 people.

∴ 1st situation, weight of chicken per person= $\frac{9\ lbs}{36\ person} = \frac{9}{36}$

Weight of chicken per person= $\frac{1}{4} lbs/ person$

2nd situation, weight of chicken per person= $\frac{17\ lbs}{68\ person} = \frac{17}{68}$

Weight of chicken per person= $\frac{1}{4} lbs/ person$

In both the situation chef cook same amount of chicken per person, which is $\frac{1}{4} lbs/ person$

∴ Rate of change is $\frac{1}{4} lbs/ person$

For the following hypothesis test, determine the null and alternative hypotheses. Also, classify the hypothesis test as two-tail

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Option B:

$H_0: \mu = 22.1$

$H_a: \mu \neq 22.1$

Classification:

The hypothesis test is Two-tailed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean length of imprisonment for motor-vehicle theft offenders in this country is 22.1 months.

This means that the null hypothesis is that the mean is of 22.1 months, that is:

$H_0: \mu = 22.1$

A hypothesis test is to be performed to determine whether the mean length of imprisonment for motor-vehicle theft offenders in this city differs from the national mean of 22.1 months.

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if this mean is different of 22.1, that is:

$H_a: \mu \neq 22.1$

Which means that the answer is given by option b).

Which of the following is the correct classification of the hypothesis test?

We test if the mean is different from a value, which means that the hypothesis test is Two-tailed.

17. Your goal is to save at least $360.00 over the next 6 weeks. How much money must you save each week in order to meet that go

OLga [1]

<h2>Answer </h2>

D. 6x>_360; x>_60

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Let $x$ be amount you will save each weeks

Since we know that you are saving over a period of 6 weeks, you will save $6x$ .

We also now that your goal is to save at least $360.00 over the period of 6 weeks, so saving more than $360.00 will be very desirable, but the goal is to save $360.00. We can rephrase this as: You need to save $360.00 or more; we can say the same using the inequality symbol $\geq$ (greater on equal than)
