Answer:

The most number of layers he can afford is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We automatically have a fee of 17 so we know we have 13 dollars remaining. Using this information, we know that one layer is 5 dollars which means we can get 2 layers which is equal to 10 dollars which turns our total fee to $27. Hope this helps!

First off you have the starting cost (C).
C=$17

each layer is $5, so that becomes 5x.

the equation will be $17+5x=30

hope this helped !! :)

In the United States, there has historically been a strong relationship between smoking and education, with well-educated people
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The proportion of former smokers with a university education is (A) 0.15

The proportion of men with a high school education that are current or former smokers is (B) 0.30

The degrees of freedom for the chi-square test for this two-way table are (B) 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to note is the two way table and ensure the proper arrangement of the figures in the table (Kindly find attached a picture of how the table should look)

Now, on to the first question on the former smokers with a university education = (43+28)/459 = 71/459 = 0.15 which is option A. [This is the total sum of former smokers with college and graduate school education].

The second question on the proportion of men with a high school education that are current or former smokers = (54+31+36)/459 = 0.285 = 0.30 (approximate value) which is option B.

The third question on the degrees of freedom for the chi-square test for this two-way table can be found with the formula DF = (r-1)(c-1) where,

DF = Degree of freedom ,

r = number of rows = 3

c = number of columns = 4 [<em>Kindly note that you have to exempt the row and columns with the totals</em>]

Therefore, DF = (3-1)(4-1) =2*3 = 6 which is option B.

For how many positive integers n is it possible to have a triangle with side lengths five, 12, and n
Andre45 [30]

Step-by-step explanation:

you know, a single side cannot be longer than the other 2 sides combined.

otherwise, the triangle cannot "close".

so, it starts with 12 cannot be longer than 5 + n.

therefore, n must be at least 7.

and n cannot be longer than 5+12 = 17

7 and 17 I would normally rule out a well, because in these cases the triangle would just be a flat line, when the 3rd side is as long as the other 2 combined.

so, in reality for a real, visible triangle, the range of valid values is 8 .. 16.

that is 9 positive integer values.
