Answer:

The amount of peanuts to use is 5 pounds and that of cashews is 30 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of peanut to use to be x

Let the amount of cashews to use to be 35-x

Form equations to compare amounts for individual foods and the mixture

$8x+15(35-x)=35(14)\\\\8x+525-15x=490\\\\7x=35\\\\x=5\\\\$

So the pounds to be used for peanuts is 5 pounds

The pounds to be used for cashews will be 35-x= 35-5=30 pounds

A police officer claims that the proportion of accidents that occur in the daytime (versus nighttime) at a certain intersection

Roman55 [17]

Answer: -1.78

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given description, we have

Population proportion : $p=0.35$

Sample size : n= 500

Sample proportion : $\hat{p}=\dfrac{156}{500}=0.312$

Test statistic for population proportion :-

$z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{0.312-0.35}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.35(1-0.35)}{500}}}\\\\=-1.78146747757\ \ \text{(Simplified)}\\\\\approx-1.78$

Hence, the test statistic for this hypothesis test for a proportion= -1.78

Determine the vertex of the function f(x) = 3(x − 2)2 + 1.

anastassius [24]

The vertex point of the function f(x) = 3(x - 2)² + 1 is (2 , 1) ⇒ answer A

Step-by-step explanation:

Any quadratic function represented graphically by a parabola

1. If the coefficient of x² is positive, then the parabola open upward

and its vertex is a minimum point

2. If the coefficient of x² is negative, then the parabola open

downward and its vertex is a maximum point

3. The standard form of the quadratic function is: f(x) = ax² + bx + c

where a, b , c are constants

4. The vertex form of the quadratic function is: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k,

where h , k are the coordinates of its vertex point

∵ The function f(x) = 3(x - 2)² + 1

∵ The f(x) = a(x - h)² + k in the vertex form

∴ a = 3 , h = 2 , k = 1

∵ h , k are the coordinates of the vertex point

∴ The coordinates of the vertex point are (2 , 1)

The vertex point of the function f(x) = 3(x - 2)² + 1 is (2 , 1)

What is 340 pages; 20 percent decrease

mote1985 [20]

First you turn the % in to decimal .20
then you multiply .20 by 340=68.00
then you subtract 340.00-68.00=272.00
the final answer is 272.00 pages
