The fraction of the orange juice will be 2/3cup.

Why?

Since there is no additional information, let's assume that the fruit punch is made using just three juice fruits, lemonade juice, cranberry juice and the rest is orange juice.

We can calculate the fraction of the orange juice using the following information:

FruitPunch=\frac{1}{4}Lemonade+\frac{1}{12}Cranberry+Orange\\\\1cup=\frac{1}{4}cup+\frac{1}{12}cup+Orange\\\\1cup-(\frac{1}{4}cup+\frac{1}{12}cup)=Orange\\\\1cup-(\frac{12+4}{4*12})=Orange\\\\Orange=1cup-\frac{16}{48}cup=1cup-\frac{1}{3}cup=\frac{3-1}{3}cup=\frac{2}{3}cup

Hence, we have that the fraction of the orange juice will be 2/3cup.

Have a nice day!

What are the values of x ?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

since they are parallel then 2x+6=106

so subtract 6 from each side so it's 2x = 100

then divide each since by 2

so x= 50

What is the first step when solving the following inequality x+2/-5<4? Group of answer choices A. Add 5 to both sides and DO
LiRa [457]

Assuming we're dealing with \frac{x+2}{-5} < 4, which is the same as writing (x+2)/(-5) < 4, then the answer is choice C.

We multiply both sides by -5 and this will flip the inequality sign.

-------------------------------------

Multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative number flips the inequality sign.

An example would be saying -2x < 10 leads to x > -5

What we can do is divide both sides by -2 and flip the inequality sign, or we could follow the steps shown below

  • -2x < 10
  • 0 < 10+2x ... adding 2x to both sides
  • -10 < 2x ... subtracting 10 from both sides; this is one way to see why the sign flip happens
  • 2x > -10
  • x > -10/2 ..... dividing both sides by 2
  • x > -5

Find the volume of the prism.
umka21 [38]

Answer:

C = 210cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can get an estamate when we use the equation L x H x W = x/2

This shows 8 x 8 x 7,  then divide by 2 = 224cm^3

The reason it is slightly less could be the facts the teachers want you to remember this one.

For right side prism the equation is (1/2)b x h x  H

which means;

The volume of a triangular prism can be found by multiplying the base times the height. Both of the pictures of the Triangular prisms below illustrate the same formula. The formula, in general, is the area of the base (the red triangle in the picture on the right) times the height,h.

We use the side and base that surrounds the right side as (1/2)base and as side to find area then use the H as the height being the 7.

Consider the following hypothesis test:
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

a. z=3.09. Yes, it can be concluded that the population mean is greater than 50.

b. z=1.24. No, it can not be concluded that the population mean is greater than 50.

c. z=2.22. Yes, it can be concluded that the population mean is greater than 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a hypothesis test for the mean, with the hypothesis:

H_0: \mu\leq50\\\\H_a:\mu> 50

The sample size is n=55 and the population standard deviation is 6.

The significance level is 0.05.

We can calculate the standard error as:

\sigma_M=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{55}}=0.809

For a significance level of 0.05, the critical value for z is zc=1.644. If the test statistic is bigger than 1.644, the null hypothesis is rejected.

a. If the sample mean is M=52.5, the test statistic is:

z=\dfrac{M-\mu}{\sigma_M}=\dfrac{52.5-50}{0.809}=\dfrac{2.5}{0.809}=3.09

The null hypothesis is rejected, as z>zc and falls in the rejection region.

b. If the sample mean is M=51, the test statistic is:

z=\dfrac{M-\mu}{\sigma_M}=\dfrac{51-50}{0.809}=\dfrac{1}{0.809}=1.24

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected, as z<zc and falls in the acceptance region.

c. If the sample mean is M=51.8, the test statistic is:

z=\dfrac{M-\mu}{\sigma_M}=\dfrac{51.8-50}{0.809}=\dfrac{1.8}{0.809}=2.22

The null hypothesis is rejected, as z>zc and falls in the rejection region.
