Trent ordered 3 veggie sandwiches and 2 meat sandwiches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total sandwiches ordered = 5

Total amount spent = $22

Cost of one veggie sandwich = $4

Cost of one meat sandwich = $5

Let,

x be the number of veggie sandwiches

y be the number of meat sandwiches

According to given statement;

x+y=5       Eqn 1

4x+5y=22   Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 4

4(x+y=5)\\4x+4y=20\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(4x+5y)-(4x+4y)=22-20\\4x+5y-4x-4y=2\\y=2

Putting y=2 in Eqn 1

x+2=5\\x=5-2\\x=3

Trent ordered 3 veggie sandwiches and 2 meat sandwiches.

Vlad [161]

Answer:

D. Because we would be interested in any difference between running on hard and soft surfaces, we should use a two-sided hypothesis test

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

When planning what kind of hypothesis to use, you have to take into account any other studies that were made about that topic so that you can decide the orientation you will give them.

Normally, when there is no other information available to give an orientation to your experiment, the first step to take is to make a two-tailed test, for example, μ₁=μ₂ vs. μ₁≠μ₂, this way you can test whether there is any difference between the two stands. Only after having experimental evidence that there is any difference between the treatments is there any sense into testing which one is better than the other.

I hope you have a SUPER day!
