$x-number\ of\ skiers\\x+1250-numbers\ of\ snowboarders\\\\\frac{skiers}{snowboarders}=\frac{1}{2}\Rightarrow\frac{x}{x+1250}=\frac{1}{2}\ \ \ \ |cross\ multiply\\\\2x=x+1250\ \ \ \ \ \ |subtract\ x\ from\ both\ sides\\\\x=1250\\\\x+1250=1250+1250=2500\\\\Answer:There\ are\ 1250\ skiers\ and\ 2500\ snowboarders.$

Roland was driving to campus but realized that his car is out of gas. He started driving around Syracuse looking for a gas stati

tester [92]

Answer:

Roland is right, he can be 95% sure that average gas prices have gone up since the same time last year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let μ be average gas price around Syracuse.

Then hypotheses are:

$H_{0}:$ μ = $2.68

$H_{a}:$ μ > $2.68

Then test statistic can be calculated as:

z= $\frac{X-M}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{N} } }$ where

X is the Roland's calculated average gas prices of 50 gas stations ($2.74)

M is the average average gas prices in the entire of Syracuse last year

s is the standard deviation ($0.11)

N is the sample size(50)

Then z= $\frac{2.74-2.68}{\frac{0.11}{\sqrt{50} } }$ ≈ 3.86

Since P-value of test statistic ≈ 0.00006 <0.05 (significance level), we can reject the null hypothesis.

If you divide 7/8 by 3/4, will the quotient be greater than<br> or less than 7/8

Verizon [17]

I believe that the quotient of 7/8 divided by 3/4 is 1.6 repeating and 1.6 repeating is 1 and 2/3 as a fraction so that means that the quotient of 7/8 by 3/4 is greater than 7/8. I hope this helped.
