26 is a part of the whole. the proportion should be set up:

(26/x) = (5/100) It's the overall enrollment that is being asked.

If you also need to solve: Cross multiply, 26(100) = 5x, 2600 = 5x, divide both sides by 5, 520 is the enrollment

Which relation is a function?
Fudgin [204]

It's the one second below the question because it does not have two outcomes for x. For example in a relation x could result in y = 2 or y = -2.

Hope this helps! :)

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

2*(5x - 2) + 2*(3x+1) ; Perimeter = 62 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

2*(5x - 2) + 2*(3x+1) = 10x - 4 + 6x + 2

                                = 16x -2

If x = 4 , then Perimeter = 16*4 - 2 = 64 - 2 = 62 cm

A manufacturer of banana chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 402 gram setting. It is
lidiya [134]

Answer:

The value of t test statistics is -2.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a manufacturer of banana chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 402 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is under filling the bags.

A 25 bag sample had a mean of 393 grams with a standard deviation of 20.

<u><em>Let </em></u>\mu<u><em> = mean filling of bags by the machine.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \geq 402 gram     {means that the the machine is not under filling the bags}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu < 402 gram     {means that the the machine is under filling the bags}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>One-sample t test statistics</u> as we don't know about the population standard deviation;

                       T.S. =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ t_n_-_1

where, \bar X = sample mean bag filling = 393 grams

            s = sample standard deviation = 20 grams

            n = sample of bags = 25

So, <u><em>test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{393-402}{\frac{20}{\sqrt{25} } }  ~ t_2_4

                               =  -2.25

The value of t test statistics is -2.25.
