For a given input value v, the function f outputs a value u to satisfy the following equation.

Sam is buying a pair of water skis that are on sale for 2/3 of the original price. After he uses a $25 gift certificate the tota

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

$210

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we can do is to add the $25 back on to the total cost.

25 + 115 = 140.

We do this because he Sam used a gift certificate on the ski's that are already 2/3 of the original price.

Now, to find the original price we can use this equation:

$\frac{2}{3} x = 140$

X represents the original price.

To solve this equation you would flip 2/3 to 3/2 and multiply that by 140, as seen below:

$(\frac{3}{2}) \frac{2}{3}x = 140 (\frac{3}{2})$

Now you can solve:

$x = \frac{420}{2} \\x = 210$

We can check this answer by multiplying 210 by 2/3

(210)(2/3) = 140

Remember, Sam used a gift certificate for $25

140 - 25 = $115

Therefore, the original price of the skis is $210.

<em>I hope this helps!!</em>

A newspaper poll asked respondents if they trusted "eco friendly" labels on cleaning products. Out of 1000 adults surveyed, 498

Paul [167]

Answer:

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of respondents that trust these labels is not significanlty less than 0.5 or 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=1000 represent the random sample taken

X=498 represent the adults that trust these labels

$\hat p=\frac{498}{1000}=0.498$ estimated proportion of respondents that trust these labels

$p_o=0.5$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion of respondents that trust these labels is at least 50%:

Null hypothesis: $p\geq 0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.5$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly different from a hypothesized value $p_o$ .

3) Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.498 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{1000}}}=-0.126$

4) Statistical decision

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

The significance level is not provided but we can assume it as $\alpha=0.05$ . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z$

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of respondents that trust these labels is not significanlty less than 0.5 or 50%.

Can someone help me with these

Trava [24]

Short answer
For 6: 72 ft^2
For 7: 650 m^2

Six
The base is a square. It's measurement is s = 4
Base = 4^2
Base = 16 ft^2

One triangle
A = 1/2 * b * h
A = 1/2 * 4 * 7
A = 14 tt^2

Four triangles
A = 4 * 14
A = 56 ft^2

Total Area = 56 + 16 = 72 ft^2
Answer 72 square feet

Seven
Triangles
Area of 1 triangle = 1/2 * 10 * 13
Area of 1 triangle = 65

Area of 6 triangles
Area of 6 triangles = 6 * area of 1 triangle
Area of 6 triangles = 390

Base
As near as I can tell, the base is a hexagon. It's using a rather out of the way method of drawing it. I will assume it is a regular hexagon. The area of a regular hexagon is 3 sqrt(3)/2 * S^2 where s is the side of the hexagon.

Area = 3sqrt(3)/2 s^2
s = 10
Area = 3sqrt(3)/2 10^2
Area = 5.1962 * 100 /2
Area = 259.81

Total area
Total area = area of the base + area of the triangles
Total area = 259.81 + 390
Total area (rounded ) = 650

I'll do one more in this batch and then you'll need to repost again.

If you draw two diagonals on the base of the figure, the intersection point will meet the base of the height. Read that a couple of times.
Join the intersection to the midpoint of the length of the square bottom. You should get 3.5

x is found by using the pythagorean theorem.
h = 6
s = 3.5
x = ????

x^2 = 6^2 + 3.5^2
x^2 = 36 + 12.25
x^2 = 48.25
x = sqrt(48.25)
x = 6.95
