In the figure above lines L and M are parallel, y = 20 and Z= 60, What is the value of X equal to?

Gwar [14]

Answer:

It will not taste the same bc there is too much oj.

Step-by-step explanation:

The recipe is saying that for every 4 cups of pineapple juice you put in, you must put in 5 cups of orange juice. That means if you put 8 cups of pineapple juice, you need 10 cups of orange juice, and if you have 12 cups of pineapple juice, you need 15 cups of oj. Obviously, 15 is less than 20. You are using too much oj, and because of this, it will not taste the same.

Simplify the following :

dlinn [17]

Answer:

1. 95/96

2. 27/7

3. -8/245

Explanation:

1. First add together the two fractions 3/4 + 5/6. Find the least common denominator. In this case we can use 12. The 3/4 changes to 9/12 and the 5/6 changes to 10/12. adding these together we get 19/12. Next we divide 8/5 by 19/12. We use the keep, change, flip method to change the divide to multiply. keep the first fraction, change divide into multiply, and then take the reciprocal of the second fraction. You will now do 5/8 x 19/12. We now get 95/96 (I made a mistake in the answers the first time because I was rushing)

2. Divide the 3/2 and the 8/9 first. I will use the KCF (keep, change, flip) method to divide. 3/2 x 9/8 = 27/16 Now we divide the 7/16. After using KCF we can simplify and cross cancel (simplfy after changing the fraction and signs) 27/16 x 16/7 --> 27/1 x 1/7 The answer will come out to be 27/7

3. since there are no parentheses divide first. Use KCF and after you get the answer multiply (it is the same using negative numbers just watch out for signs)

A nice riddle, mathematical riddle.

Assuming a turtle winning means the declared winner is the weaker one actually won over the stronger one. In this context, the turtle winner is the one who has a lesser number of favourable votes.

The given rules for the points are as follows:
1. Point for the first choice must be greater than or equal to that of the second choice.
2. All points must be positive whole numbers.

Let's suppose we have Henry against Tim.
Henry is favourite of the voters and is the leading candidate, according to popular polls.
Tim is an excellent manipulator, sly, and everybody knows this.

On polling day, the vote count came out as follows (in point counts)

Henry Tim
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
10 1 (Henry's own vote)
1 100 (Tim's own vote)
------------------
17 107 TOTAL POINTS

So Tim the turtle was declared winner of the race, and since everything was according to rule, even a recount of the votes did not change the results.

Be aware, voting by districts (instead of popular votes) also exhibits a similar problem.

The U.S. Census Bureau conducts annual surveys to obtain information on the percentage of the voting-age population that is regi

yan [13]

Answer:

We conclude that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 513 employed persons and 604 unemployed persons are independently and randomly selected, and that 287 of the employed persons and 280 of the unemployed persons have registered to vote.

Let $p_1$ = percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote.

$p_2$ = percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $p_1\leq p_2$ {means that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote does not exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $p_1>p_2$ {means that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote}

The test statistics that would be used here Two-sample z test for proportions;

T.S. = $\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p_1$ = sample proportion of employed workers who have registered to vote = $\frac{287}{513}$ = 0.56

$\hat p_2$ = sample proportion of unemployed workers who have registered to vote = $\frac{280}{604}$ = 0.46

$n_1$ = sample of employed persons = 513

$n_2$ = sample of unemployed persons = 604

So, the test statistics = $\frac{(0.56-0.46)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.56(1-0.56)}{513}+\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{604} } }$

= 3.349

The value of z test statistics is 3.349.

Now, at 0.05 significance level the z table gives critical value of 1.645 for right-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of z as 3.349 > 1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.
