Answer:

People should be knowledgeable about equations and inequalities because they are often used to solve day to day life problems.

Often times real life problems are modeled using equations and inequalities

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities are used often in real life, businesses use inequalities to control inventory, plan production lines, produce pricing models, and for shipping/warehousing goods and materials. Inequalities are used in engineering and production quality assurance.

An equation is the mathematical representation of those two things which are equal, one on each side of an 'equals' sign. Equations are useful to solve our daily life problem.

Please help!! This topic is incredibly confusing and assistance is very much needed & appreciated! Thanks :)

I got 8/10 or 80% because if you add up all sandwichs together, you get 50, then you add up ham and tuna sandwichs and get 40 so 40/50 would be 80/100 to make it a percent or fraction.. hopefully this makes sense and i helped:) i wish i could just send the work to you so it could make more sense lol

A public bus company official claims that the mean waiting time for bus number 14 during peak hours is less than 10 minutes. Kar

Answer:

We conclude that the mean waiting time is less than 10 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a public bus company official claims that the mean waiting time for bus number 14 during peak hours is less than 10 minutes.

Karen took bus number 14 during peak hours on 18 different occasions. Her mean waiting time was 7.8 minutes with a standard deviation of 2.5 minutes.

Let $\mu$ = mean waiting time for bus number 14.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu \geq$ 10 minutes {means that the mean waiting time is more than or equal to 10 minutes}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu$ < 10 minutes {means that the mean waiting time is less than 10 minutes}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample t test statistics as we don't know about the population standard deviation;

T.S. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean waiting time = 7.8 minutes

s = sample standard deviation = 2.5 minutes

n = sample of different occasions = 18

So, test statistics = $\frac{7.8-10}{\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{18} } }$ ~ $t_1_7$

= -3.734

The value of t test statistics is -3.734.

Now, at 0.01 significance level the t table gives critical value of -2.567 for left-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is less than the critical value of t as -3.734 < -2.567, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean waiting time is less than 10 minutes.
