You have to do a system, lets say x are noble fir trees and y are douglas fir trees,
5x+3y=420
12x+9y=1080
if you solve this you get,
x=60 and
y=40
SO Noble fir trees cost $60 and Douglas fir trees cost $40.
Answer:
Distribute:
=(−2)(4x)+(−2)(−4)+x
=−8x+8+x
Combine Like Terms:
=−8x+8+x
=(−8x+x)+(8)
=−7x+8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The value of the test statistic is z = -0.877.
Step-by-step explanation:
Testing the difference in mean time spent on housework between husbands and wives.
At the null hypothesis, we test if there is no difference, that is, the subtraction of the means is 0:

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if there is a difference, that is, the subtraction of the means is different from 0.

The test statistic is:

In which X is the sample mean,
is the value tested at the null hypothesis, and s is the standard error.
0 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that 
For the wives the mean was 7 hours/week and for the husbands the mean was 4.5 hours/week. The standard deviation of the differences in time spent on house work was 2.85.
This means that 
What is the value of the test statistic for testing the difference in mean time spent on housework between husbands and wives?



The value of the test statistic is z = -0.877.
15% of 45.4=6.81 this is the final answer
