Deluxe coffee is to be mixed with regular coffee to make at least 46 pounds of a blended coffee. The mixture must contain at lea

deluxe coffee. Deluxe coffee costs $7 per pound and regular coffee $5 per pound. How many pounds of each kind of coffee should be used to
minimize costs?​

Answer:

11 pounds of deluxe, 35 pounds of regular

Step-by-step explanation:

If d is pounds of deluxe coffee, r is pounds of regular coffee, and C is the total cost, then:

d ≥ 11

d + r ≥ 46

C = 7d + 5r

Since deluxe costs more than regular, we want to use as little as possible to minimize the cost.

d = 11

r = 35

C = 252

For this case, we observe that the dispersion diagram has a behavior similar to a straight line.
 we observe that as the values of x increase, the values of y decrease.
 Therefore, the line is of negative slope.

It is believed that Lake Tahoe Community College (LTCC) Intermediate Algebra students get less than seven hours of sleep per nig
Kitty [74]

Answer: No , at 0.05 level of significance , we have sufficient evidence to reject the claim that LTCC Intermediate Algebra students get less than seven hours of sleep per night, on average.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let \mu denotes the average hours of sleep per night.

As per given , we have

H_0:\mu=7\\H_a:\mu

, since H_a is left-tailed and population standard deviation is unknown, so the test is a left-tailed t -test.

Also , it is given that ,

Sample size : n= 22

Sample mean : \overline{x}=7.24

Sample  standard deviation : s= 1.93

Test statistic : t=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

i.e.  t=\dfrac{7.24-7}{\dfrac{1.93}{\sqrt{22}}}\approx0.58

For significance level \alpha=0.05 and degree of freedom 21 (df=n-1),

Critical t-value for left-tailed test= t_{\alpha, df}=t_{0.05,21}=- 1.7207

Decision : Since the test statistic value (0.58) > critical value  1.7207, it means we are failed to reject the null hypothesis .

[Note : When |t_{cal}|>|t_{cri}|, then we accept the null hypothesis.]

Conclusion: We have sufficient evidence to reject the claim that LTCC Intermediate Algebra students get less than seven hours of sleep per night, on average.

Item 8
ludmilkaskok [199]
So, I didn't quite understand your question clearly, but I'll try my best to answer it.

So, the first question is quite simple: Did the runner have a % decrease in his time or an increase.
Well, 7:45 is minor than 5:51. So, his time decreased.

2nd question:
The percent of change. Well, first things first 7:45 has 2 different units, wich are minutes and seconds, I suppose. Same goes for 5:51.
So let's put everything in seconds. multiply both the 7 and 5 for 60(for every minute has 60 seconds.)

That means:
7*60= 420+45 = 465.
5*60=300+51=351.

Now, let's do the math itself:
465 -> 100%
351 -> x%
 Is equal to about  75,5%
How much did it decrease then?
(75,5-100)%= 24,5%, approximately
