Answer:

y = 2/3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

2x - 3y = 9

Step 2: Solve for <em>y</em>

Subtract 2x on both sides: -3y = 9 - 2x
Divide both sides by -3: y = -3 + 2/3x
Rewrite: y = 2/3x - 3

Various studies indicate that approximately 11% of the world's population is left handed. You think this number is actually high

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

a. H0 : p ≤ 0.11 Ha : p >0.11 ( one tailed test )

d. z= 1.3322

Step-by-step explanation:

We formulate our hypothesis as

a. H0 : p ≤ 0.11 Ha : p >0.11 ( one tailed test )

According to the given conditions

p`= 31/225= 0.1378

np`= 225 > 5

n q` = n (1-p`) = 225 ( 1- 31/225)= 193.995> 5

p = 0.4 x= 31 and n 225

c. Using the test statistic

z= p`- p / √pq/n

d. Putting the values

z= 0.1378- 0.11/ √0.11*0.89/225

z= 0.1378- 0.11/ √0.0979/225

z= 0.1378- 0.11/ 0.02085

z= 1.3322

at 5% significance level the z- value is ± 1.645 for one tailed test

The calculated value falls in the critical region so we reject our null hypothesis H0 : p ≤ 0.11 and accept Ha : p >0.11 and conclude that the data indicates that the 11% of the world's population is left-handed.

The rejection region is attached.

The P- value is calculated by finding the corresponding value of the probability of z from the z - table and subtracting it from 1.

which appears to be 0.95 and subtracting from 1 gives 0.04998

Zina goes shopping. She buys in the same store two scarves and three T-shirts for

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The price of T-shirts before the sale = 42 euros

The price of scarves before the sale = -77/2 euros

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of the items Zina buys from the store initially are;

Two scarves and three T-shirts for 49 euros

The reduction in the price of scarves a week later during sales = 1.5 euros

The reduction in the price of T-shirts a week later during sales = 2 euros

The items Zina bought for 40 euros at the reduced price of the sales opportunity are;

Four scarves and five T-shirts for 40 euros

Let 'x' represent the initial price of a scarf and let 'y' represent the initial price of a T-shirt, we have;

2·x + 3·y = 49...(1)

4·(x - 1.5) + 5·(y - 2) = 40...(2)

Expanding equation (2) gives;

4·x - 6 + 5·y - 10 = 40

4·x + 5·y = 40 + 6 + 10 = 56

∴ 4·x + 5·y = 56...(3)

By multiplying equation (1) by 2 and subtracting the result from equation (3), we get;

4·x + 5·y - 2 × (2·x + 3·y) = 56 - 2 × 49 = -63

-y = -42

y = 42

The price of T-shirts before the sale = 42 euros

x = (49 - 3 × 42)/2 = -77/2

x = -77/2

The price of scarves before the sale = -77/2 euros

(However, if the had bought the 4 scarves and 5 T-shirts during sales at 70 euros, we get;

The price of T-shirts before the sale = 12 euros

The price of scarves before the sale = 6.5 euros.

The allowable total price for the reduced 4 scarves and 5 T-shirts is between 66 and about 82 for both initial prices to be +ve)
