Problem: You do not have an attached picture. Though, I can help you out with this question.

So, three-fifths of the members are girls. There are 30 of girls. We can immediately make an equation using "x".

3/5x=30

3/5x × 5/3=30 × 5/3

x=50

Thus, there are 50 members in total. Though if x is too hard for you, you may substitute it by using another variable.

Variable in here is x.

The height of a certain banner is equal to one third of its length. If the banner is 5 ft tall, write the equation that can be u

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

$L=3h$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let height of a banner be $h$ , then we know that this is $\frac{1}{3}$ of the length $L$ of the banner; so we have

$h=\frac{1}{3} L$ .

Now we can rearrange this equation to solve for the length of the banner given it's height:

$L=3h$

So there we have it!

If the banner is 5 ft tall, then it's length will be:

$L=3*5=15ft$

If X and Y are any random variables with E(X) = 5, E(Y) = 6, E(XY) = 21, V(X) = 9 and V(Y) = 10, then the relationship between X

natka813 [3]

Answer:

We have a strong negative relationship between the variables.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two random variables X and Y, it is possible to calculate the covariance as Cov(X, Y) = E(XY)-E(X)E(Y). We have E(X)=5, E(Y)=6 and E(XY)=21. Therefore Cov(X,Y)=21-(5)(6)=21-30=-9. On the other hand, we know that the correlation of X and Y is the number defined by $Cov(X,Y)/\sqrt{Var(X)}\sqrt{Var(Y)}$ and because in this particular case we have V(X)=9 and V(Y)=10, we have $-9/\sqrt{9}\sqrt{10}$ = -0.9487. Therefore, we have a strong negative relationship between the variables.

A researcher is investigating a government claim that the unemployment rate is less than 5%. To test this claim, a random sample

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The test statistic for this hypothesis test for a proportion is z=1.90.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for a proportion.

The claim is that the unemployment rate is less than 5%.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

$H_0: \pi=0.05\\\\H_a:\pi$

The sample has a size n=1500.

The sample proportion is p=0.061.

$p=X/n=92/1500=0.061$

The standard error of the proportion is:

$\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.05*0.95}{1500}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.000032}=0.0056$

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

$z=\dfrac{p-\pi-0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.061-0.05-0.5/1500}{0.0056}=\dfrac{0.0107}{0.0056}=1.90$

Find the percent change from 70 to 56

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

This would be a 20% decrease. Since your going from 70 to 56, you would have a percentage of 20 for your decreasing percentage. The difference total is -14.
