Hi!

We will solve this using ratios, like this:

4 1/2 = 4,5 kg of olive oil for 27 $

1 kg of olive oil for x $

_____________________________

x = (27*1)/4,5

x = 27/4,5

x = 6 $ per kilogram

Hope this helps!

Solve x2 - x - 30 = 0 by factoring.

Answer:

x=6, x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Factoring this quadratic gets you (x-6)(x+5)=0, for this to be possible, either x-6 or x+5 has to be zero, so therefor x is 6, or x is -5

Jan gives Ted a loan at 4% effective to be repaid by 10 annual payments of 100, followed by 5 annual payments of 200. Just after

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

139 ( D )

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest rate on loan = 4% = 0.04

Number of payments = 15

First 10 payments = 100 each

last 5 payments = 200 each

Calculating the value of K

K = [ ( 100 / 0.04 * ( 1-1 / 1.04^10 ) + 200/0.04 * ( 1-1 / (1 +0.04)^5)* 1 /1.04^10)

* 1.1 - 100 / 0.04 * ( 1-1 / (1+0.04)^5 ) - 200/0.04 * (1-1 /1.04^5) * 1/1.04^10)*0.04 / ( 1-1 / 1.04^5) * (1 + 0.04)^5

= 138.6051 ≈ 139

To find the standard deviation of the diameter of wooden dowels, the manufacturer measures 19 randomly selected dowels and find

loris [4]

Answer:

Option D - $[0.12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The manufacturer measures 19 randomly selected dowels and finds the standard deviation of the sample to be s=0.16.

To find : The 95% confidence interval for the population standard deviation sigma?

Solution :

Number of sample n=19

The degree of freedom is Df=n-1=19-1=18

The standard deviation of the sample is s=0.16

Applying chi-square table to find critical value,

Upper critical value of $\chi^2$ is $UC=\chi(\frac{0.05}{2},18) = 31.5264$

Lower critical value of $\chi^2$ is

$LC=\chi(1-\frac{0.05}{2},18) = 8.2307$

Lower limit of the 95% confidence interval for the population variance

$L=\frac{(df)\times (s^2)}{UC}$

$L=\frac{18\times (0.16^2)}{31.5264}$

$L=\frac{18\times0.0256}{31.5264}$

$L=\frac{0.4608}{31.5264}$

$L=0.0146$

Upper limit of the 95% confidence interval for the population variance

$U=\frac{(df)\times(s^2)}{LC}$

$U=\frac{18\times (0.16^2)}{8.2307}$

$U=\frac{18\times0.0256}{8.2307}$

$U=\frac{0.4608}{8.2307}$

$U=0.0559$

So, The 95% confidence interval for the population variance is [0.0146, 0.0560]

Now, The 95% confidence interval for the population standard deviation is

$[\sqrt{0.0146}$

$[0.1208$

or $[0.12$

Therefore, Option D is correct.

The 95% confidence interval for the population standard deviation is $[0.12$
