Remark

The trick here is to realize that you have to find the number both have in order to find the difference. That means you take (effectively) 3/8 and 5/8 to find out how much each of them has. The 8 stands for the 136

Step One

Find the number of stamps Alex has. Remember his ratio is the smaller so he will have 3/8

Alex = 3/8 * 136

Alex = 408/8 = 51

Step 2

Find the number that Freddy has.

The total is 136

<u>Formula</u>

Freddy = Total - Alex

Freddy = 136 - 51

Freddy = 85

<u>Check</u>

Let us see if 5/8 * 136 = 85

5*136/8 = 680 / 8 = 85 So your answers are correct.

Difference

Difference = 85 - 51 = 34 which is how many more stamps Freddy has than Alex.

Find the slope of the line:<br> 5x+3y=6
natka813 [3]
To get the result we have to transform given formula into y=ax+b form.
Lets do this
5x+3y=6   /-5x  (subtract 5x both sides)
3y=-5x+6  /:3  (divide both sides by 3)
y=-\frac{5}{3} x+6
In form y=ax+b we know that a is slope and b is y intersect. We can read from our transformed equation that slope a=-\frac{5}{3}and its the result

Vlada [557]

Answer:

95% confidence level should be used for a confidence​ interval.

The given confidence interval contains the value of 85 ​sec, so there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean is greater than 85 sec.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.05 significance level

1 - 0.05 = 0.95

0.95*100% = 95%

This means that a 95% confidence level should be used for a confidence​ interval.

Confidence interval is found to be −1.8 sec<μ<213.5 ​sec, what should we conclude about the​ claim?

Contains the value of 85 sec, thus there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean is greater than 85 sec.

If x = t^3 and y = t^2 - 2 , what is y in terms of x?
alekssr [168]

Answer:

E

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to get t^2 in the first equation.

x = t^3                         Take the cube root of both sides

\sqrt[3]{x} = \sqrt[3]{t^3}

\sqrt[3]{x}=t                         Now square both sides

(\sqrt[3]{x})^2 = t^2

x^\frac{2}{3} = t^2

Now you can substitute into the second equation

y = t^2 - 2

y = x^\frac{2}{3} - 2

E
