Answer:

Correct answer: First x = 15 h and second y = 5 h

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we will form a system of two equations with two variables:

Let be the time of the first mechanic x  and of the second y

x + y = 20  ⇒ y = 20 - x

85 x + 80 y = 1675

85 x + 80 (20 - x) = 1675

85 x + 1600 - 80 x = 1675

5 x = 1675 - 1600

5 x = 75

x = 75 / 5 = 15 h

x = 15 h

y = 20 - 15 = 5 h

y = 5 h

The population standard deviation for the heights of dogs, in inches, in a city is 3.7 inches. If we want to be 95% confident th
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The minimum sample size that can be taken is of 14 dogs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the minimum sample size to estimate a population mean is given by:

n=\frac{z^{2}\sigma^{2}}{e^{2}}

The <u>first step</u> is obtaining the values we're going to use to replace in the formula.

Since we want to be 95% confident, 1-\alpha=0.95 \Rightarrow \alpha=0.05.

Therefore we look for the critical value z_{\alpha/2}=1.96.

Then we calculate the variance:

\sigma = 3.7 \Rightarrow \sigma^{2}=13.69

And we have that:

e=2 \Rightarrow e^{2}=4

<u>Now</u> we replace in the formula with the values we've just obtained:

n=\frac{1.96^{2}*13.69}{4}=13.1479\approx 14

Therefore the minimum sample size that can be taken to guarantee that the sample mean is within 2 inches of the population mean is of 14 dogs.

What is the slope of the line shown below?​
Sophie [7]

Hi there!

\large\boxed{slope = \frac{1}{5}}

Use slope formula to solve for the slope of the line:

slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2} -x_{1} }

Plug in points into the equation. We can use the points (0, -10) and (25, -5):

slope = \frac{-5-(-10)  }{25 -0 } = \frac{5}{25} = \frac{1}{5}

Isolate the variable by dividing both sides by 6:
t=144/6=24


The solution is t=24

Good luck!
