A) x + y = 110
x - y = 40
B) Melvin swims for 35 minutes every day.
C) It is not possible
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Let x denote the duration for which Melvin plays tennis and y denote the duration for which he swims
Step 2 :
Part A :
Given that the total duration for which he plays and tennis is 110 minutes
so we have x + y = 110
Also given that he plays tennis for 40 minutes more than he swims
So, x = y+ 40 =>x-y = 40
So the linear pair of equations are
x + y = 110
x-y = 40
Step 3 :
Part B
Solving the above 2 equations we have
y+40+y = 110 = > 2y+ 40 = 110 = > y = 2y = 70 = >35
x = y+40 = 35+ 40 = 75
So Melvin plays tennis for 75 minutes and swims for 35 minutes every day.
Step 4 :
Part C
Given he plays and swims for 110 mins exactly, i.e x + y = 110
If Melvin plays tennis for 70 minutes , then x = 70, then the time for which he can swim is 110 - 70 = 40 mins.
He gets only 40 mins for swimming which is not 40 mins more than he plays tennis .
So this case is not possible.

A two-factor between-subjects design is evaluated. The F-value for Factor A has df = 1, 40 and the F-value for Factor B has df =

finlep [7]

Answer:

The df values for the A x B interaction are also 3,40

Step-by-step explanation:

The F-value for Factor A has df = 1, 40

The F-value for Factor B has df = 3, 40.

The df values for the A x B interaction are also 3,40

This is because the source of variation between columns has ( c- 1); rc(n-1) degrees of freedom and the source of variation between rows has (r-1); rc(n-1) degrees of freedom and the source of variation of interaction

(between rows and columns) has ( c-1) ( r-1); rc(n-1) degrees of freedom.

Therefore

Factor A: ( c- 1); rc(n-1) = 1,40

<u>Factor B: (r-1); rc(n-1) = 3,40</u>

Interaction : ( c-1) ( r-1); rc(n-1) = 3*1,(40)= 3,40

where c refers to columns , r refers to rows and n refers to the total sample size.

Which of the following expressions is equivalent to -9?

FromTheMoon [43]

B because there is only one negative and -63 divided by 7 equals -9. If it were -7 divided by 63 that would give you an answer in decimal form.

Triangle MNP has side lengths 3.5 cm, 4.1 cm, and 4.3 cm. A triangle with what side lengths would be similar to triangle MNP?

atroni [7]

Answer:

Option 1,

The triangle MNP is similar to the triangle with side lengths 35 cm, 41 cm, 43 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given triangle MNP has side lengths 3.5 cm, 4.1 cm, and 4.3 cm. we have to find the similarity triangle sides from the given option.

As we know, the two triangles are similar if the measures of the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional.

For the first option: 35 cm, 41 cm, 43 cm

$\frac{3.5}{4.1}=\frac{4.1}{41}=\frac{4.3}{43}=\frac{1}{10}$

which shows that the sides are proportional.

we have to choose only one option ∴ we needn't have to check the others

Hence, the triangle MNP is similar to the triangle with side lengths 35 cm, 41 cm, 43 cm
