What is 2x+3y=17 3x+2y= -0.5

Shelly bought 7 boxes of fish food and 2 packets of cat food. Each box of fish food contained 6 pouches, and each packet of cat

AfilCa [17]

Answer: 34 more pouches

7 boxes - fish food; 1 box contained 6 pouches

Total amount of fish food is 7 × 6 = 42 pouches of fish food

2 packets - cat food; 1 packet contained 4 pouches

Total amount of cat food is 2 × 4 = 8 pouches

How many more pouches of fish food than cat food did Shelly buy?

42 pouches - 8 pouches = 34 pouches

Therefore there was 34 more pouches of fish food than cat food

Use the sample data and confidence level to construct the confidence interval estimate of the population proportion p. n equals

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

(0.767,0.833)

Step-by-step explanation:

The 95% confidence interval for population proportion p can be computed as

$p-z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} }$

The z-value associated with 95% confidence level is 1.96.

whereas p=x/n

We are given that x=440 and n=550.

p=440/550=0.8

$0.8-1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.8(0.2)}{550} }$

$0.8-1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.16}{550} }$

$0.8-1.96\sqrt{0.00029 }$

$0.8-1.96(0.01706)$

$0.8-0.03343$

$0.76657$

Thus, the required confidence interval is

0.767<P<0.833 (rounded to 3 decimal places)

Hence, we are 95% confident that our true population proportion will lie in the interval (0.767,0.833)

Marlene went shopping and bought a bunch of candy for her swim team. She bought packs of Skittles for $1.50 each and packs of M&

lord [1]

Answer:

18 Skittles

6 M&Ms

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

Variable x = number of skittles

Variable y = number of M&Ms

1.50x + 2y = 39

x + y = 24

In the second equation, isolate a variable:

x = 24 - y

Substitute the value of x for 24 - y in the first equation:

1.50(24 - y) + 2y = 39

Use distributive property

36 - 1.5y + 2y = 39

Combine like terms

36 + 0.5y = 39

Isolate variable y:

0.5y = 3

y = 6

Substitute the value of y for 6 in the second equation:

x + 6 = 24

Isolate variable x:

x = 18

Plug these values into any equation of your choice to see if these values are correct (I'll do both equations just to prove it):

1.50(18) + 2(6) = 39

27 + 12 = 39

39 = 39

Correct

x + y = 24

18 + 6 = 24

24 = 24

Correct
