Answer:

4,560 pounds of soil

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, based on the information given we are assuming that Persephone's garden is in the shape of a square or rectangle and the measurements 8 by 19 are in feet. That being the case we first need to calculate the square footage of the garden and we do this by multiplying the length by the width like so...

8 ft * 19 ft = 152 sq. ft.

Now that we know the square footage, we calculate how much soil is needed. Since the question states that she needs 30 pounds of soil per square foot then we multiply the square footage of the garden by 30.

152 sq. ft. * 30lb =  4,560lb

Finally, we can see that Persephone will need 4,560 pounds of soil for her garden.

A district-wide test is used to measure math attitude in freshmen in high school students, with a mean of 78 and a standard devi
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Population mean \mu=78

std deviation \sigma =12  = 12

sample size n =36

Sample mean = \bar x = 85

H_0: \bar x = 85\\H_a: \bar x \neq 85

(Two tailed test)

Mean difference = 7

Std error =\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } \\=\frac{12}{6} \\=2

Since population std dev is known and n>30 we use Z test

Z statistic = \frac{7}{2} =3.5\\

p value <0.001

Since p value is <0.01, at 1% significance level, we reject H0.

There is significant difference between sample mean and population mean.

Suppose that y varies directly with x and inversely with z, and y = 4 when x = 8 and z = 14. find z when x = 36 and y = 6. first
raketka [301]

The value of z if x = 36 and y = 6 is 42

<h3>Direct and inverse variation</h3>

Suppose that y varies directly with x and inversely with z, hence the required expression will be:

y = kx/z

If  y = 4 when x = 8 and z = 14 then;

4 = k(8)/14

8k = 56

k = 7

To  find z when x = 36 and y = 6, we  will have:

6 = 7(36)/z
1 = 7(6)/z

z = 42

Hence the value of z if x = 36 and y = 6 is 42
