Answer:

A) N + Q = 9

B) .05 N + .25 Q = 1.45

Multiplying A) by -.25 we get

A) -.25 N -.25Q = -2.25  then adding B)

B) .05 N + .25 Q = 1.45

-.2N = -.80

4 Nickels

5 Quarters

Answer is C

The ratio of the sides of a triangle is 2:4:9. If the perimeter is 165 inches, what is the length of the longest side?
drek231 [11]

Answer:

99inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the sides of a triangle =2:4:9.

perimeter = 165 inches,

Total ratio= 2+4+9=15

perimeter = 165

Divide the perimeter by total ratio

165/15=11

Each of the sides

= (2×11) =22

(4×11) =44

(9×11)=99

the length of the longest side= 99inches

Answer:

The required confidence interval is (3.068,4.732)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

He plans to use a 90% confidence interval. He surveys a random sample of 50 students. The sample mean is 3.90 alcoholic drinks per week. The sample standard deviation is 3.51 drinks and wants to construct 90% confidence interval.

Thus, n=50, \bar x=3.90 σ=3.51

Now find degree of freedom.

df=n-1\\df=50-1=49

The confidence level is 90% and df=49

Therefore,

\frac{\alpha}{2} =\frac{1-0.90}{2}

\frac{\alpha}{2} =0.05

Now by using t distribution table look at 49 df and  alpha level on 0.05.

t_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} = 1.67653

Calculate SE as shown:

SE=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{50} }

SE=\frac{3.51}{\sqrt{50}}=0.4964

Now multiply 1.67653 with 0.4964

Therefore, the marginal error is: 1.67653 × 0.4964≈ 0.832

Now add and subtract this value in given mean to find the confidence interval.

\bar x-E

Hence, the required confidence interval is (3.068,4.732)
