Answer:

z= 168

Step-by-step explanation:

proportion zinc to copper = 4/17

4/17 = z/ 714

17 • z = 4 • 714

17 • z = 2856

z= 2856/17

z = 168

Assume that different groups of couples use a particular method of gender selection and each couple gives birth to one baby. Thi
Dovator [93]

Complete question:

Assume that different groups of couples use a particular method of gender selection and each couple gives birth to one baby this mention is designed to increase the likelihood that each baby will be a girl, but assume that the method has no effect so the probability of a girl is 0.5. Assume that the group consists of 36 couples.

A) Find the mean and standard deviation for the number of girls in groups of 36 births.

B) Use the range rule of thumb to find the values separating results that are significantly low and significantly high.

C) Is the result of 33 girls significantly high? A result of 33 girls would suggest the method is effective or is not effective?

Answer:

a) mean = 18

Standard deviation =3

b) low range = 12

High range = 24

c) The result of 33 girls is significantly high. Yes, the method is effective.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

p = 0.5

n = 36

a) The mean is the product of n and p

Mean u = np

u = 36 * 0.5 = 18

The standard deviation is the square root of the product of n and p&q.

S.d ó = \sqrt{npq}

= \sqrt{np(1-p)}

= \sqrt{36(0.5)(1-0.5)} = \sqrt{9} = 3

b) To find the range rule of thumb:

• For low range

Low range = u - 2ó

= 18 - (2 * 3)

= 12

• High range

= u + 2ó

= 18 + (2*3)

= 24

c) The result is significantly high, because 33 is greater than 24 girls.

A result of 33 girls would prove the method as effective.

Draw the graphs of the pair of linear equations : x + 2y = 5 and 2x - 3y = -4 Also find the points where the lines meet the x -
aliina [53]

Answer:

(1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of the lines x + 2y = 5 and 2x - 3y = -4

First we need to make x the subject of the formulas

For x+2y = 5

x = 5 - 2y ... 1

For 2x - 3y = -4

2x = -4+3y

x = (-4+3y)/2 ... 2

Equate 1 and 2

5 - 2y =  (-4+3y)/2

2(5-2y) = -4+3y

10 - 4y = -4+3y

-4 -3y = -4-10

-7y = -14

y = 14/7

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 into 1

x = 5 = 2y

x = 5 - 2(2)

x = 5 - 4

x = 1

Hence the point where the lines meet will be at (1, 2)

Dante has 60 baseball cards. this is at least six more than three time as many cards as Anna. write and solve an inequality to r
Anon25 [30]
D=dante's cards number
a=anna's cards number

d=60
this (d) is at least (smallest is, aka greater than or equal to or <u>></u>) 6 more than (+6) 3 times  as many as anna (3 times a or 3a)

d<u>></u>6+3a
d=60
60<u>></u>6+3a
subtract 6 from both sides
54<u>></u>3a
divide both sides by 3
18<u>></u>a
anna has at least 18 cards
