there \ are \ 28 \ members \\ the \ number \ of \ members \ renting \ skis - x\\the \ number \ of \ members \ renting \ snowboards - y\\skis \ rent \ for \ \$16.00 \ a \ day \ and \ snowboards \ rent \ for \ \$19.00 \ a \ day\\\\\begin{cases} x+y=28 \ \ / \cdot (-16) \\ 16x+19y = 478 \end{cases}

\begin{cases} -16x-16y=-448  \\ 16x+19y = 478   \end{cases}\\+ -------\\3y=30 \ \ / :3 \\y=10 \\ \\
x+y=28\\x+10=28\\x=28-10\\x=18 \\ \\ Answer: \ 18  \ members \ rented \ skis .

Answer:

The appropriate alternative hypothesis is, <em>Hₐ</em>: <em>p</em>₁ - <em>p</em>₂ > 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case it is provided that Triclosan is a compound often added to products such as soaps, lotions, and toothpaste.

Since the compound is antimicrobial its corporate producer maintained that it should help prevent staph infections among people who use products containing the compound.

But a scientist wants to test whether the compound actually is associated with higher incidence of staph infection.

That is he wants to determine whether people with a detectable level of triclosan have higher rates of carrying the staph bacteria than people without triclosan.

Denote:

<u>Group 1:</u> people with a detectable level of triclosan

<u>Group 2:</u> people without a detectable level of triclosan

To test this the hypothesis can be defined as follows:

<em>H₀</em>: The proportion of people with a detectable level of triclosan does not have higher rates of carrying the staph bacteria than people without triclosan, i.e. <em>p</em>₁ - <em>p</em>₂ ≤ 0.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The proportion of people with a detectable level of triclosan have higher rates of carrying the staph bacteria than people without triclosan, i.e. <em>p</em>₁ - <em>p</em>₂ > 0.

Thus, the appropriate alternative hypothesis is, <em>Hₐ</em>: <em>p</em>₁ - <em>p</em>₂ > 0.

Answer the following questions using metric conversions.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Ok, here is the answers! brainliest pleaseee :D

Step-by-step explanation:

13. - 0.624 kg.   (Explanation: 104 grams per one pack of pop-tarts. 104 g x 6 packs of pop-tarts equal 624 grams in total. 624 grams to kilograms is 0.624 kg.)

14. - No. The tablecloth is 155 cm long. It needs to cover a table that is 1.6 meters long. 155 cm to meters is 1.55 meters. The tablecloth is 0.05 to short to cover the table. 1.6 meters - 1.55 meters = 0.005.

15 - Alex's sister rode the farthest. She rode 1,000 meters farther than Alex. 2 kilometers in meters is 2,000 meters. His sister rode 1,000 meters more than that, 3,000.

Use three different values of n to demonstrate that 2n + 3n is equivalent to 5n.
Rainbow [258]
You could use 10, 6 and 7.

Using ten would have them all equal 50, using 6 would have them all equal 30 and using 7 would have them all equal 35.

Hope this helps!
