Joanne works two jobs to pay for college. She tutors for $25 per hour and also works as a receptionist for $12 per hour. Due to

her class and study schedule, Joanne is only able to work up to 25 hours per week, but must earn at least $200 per week. If t represents the number of hours Joanne tutors and r represents the number of hours she works as a receptionist, which system of inequalities represents this scenario?
A. t + r >= 25
25t + 12r = 200

B. t + r <= 25
25t + 12r <= 200

C. t + r <= 25
25t + 12r >= 200

D. None of the systems shown represent this scenario.

Answer: The correct option is

$(C)~t+r\leq 25,\\\\25t+12r\geq200.$

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Joanne works two jobs to pay for college.

Let, t and r represents the number of hours she tutors and number of hours she works as a receptionist.

The, the total number of hours she work = t + r.

Since she can work up to 25 hours per week, so the total number of hours she work is less than or equal to 25.

Therefore, we can write

$t+r\leq 25.$

Now,

Joanne earns $25 per hour through tutoring, so the amount of money she earn tutoring = $25t,

and

she earn $12 working as a receptionist, so the amount of money she earn as a receptionist = $12r.

Since she earn at lest $200 per week, so the total earning of Joanne per week will be greater than or equal to $200.

Therefore, we can write

$25t+12r\geq 25.$

Thus, the required system of inequalities representing this scenario is

$t+r\leq 25,\\\\25t+12r\geq200.$

Option (C) is correct.

Answer: C. $t+r\leq 25$

$25t+12r\geq 200$

Step-by-step explanation:

If 't' represents the number of hours Joanne tutors and 'r' represents the number of hours she works as a receptionist.

Then the total hours she can work=t+r

Since she can work up to 25 hours.

Thus $t+r\leq 25$

If she earns $25 per hour by tuition and $ 12 per hour by working as a receptionist .

Then her total earning =$ $25t+12r$

Since she must earn $200.

Then $25t+12r\geq 200$ .

Therefore, the required system of inequality will be

$t+r\leq 25$

$25t+12r\geq 200$

A researcher wishes to estimate the average blood alcohol concentration (BAC) for drivers involved in fatal accidents who are f

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

A 90% confidence interval for the mean BAC in fatal crashes in which the driver had a positive BAC is [0.143, 0.177] .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a researcher randomly selects records from 60 such drivers in 2009 and determines the sample mean BAC to be 0.16 g/dL with a standard deviation of 0.080 g/dL.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

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

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean BAC = 0.16 g/dL

s = sample standard deviation = 0.080 g/dL

n = sample of drivers = 60

$\mu$ = population mean BAC in fatal crashes

<em>Here for constructing a 90% confidence interval we have used a One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation. </em>

So, a 90% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is;

P(-1.672 < $t_5_9$ < 1.672) = 0.90 {As the critical value of t at 59 degrees of

freedom are -1.672 & 1.672 with P = 5%} P(-1.672 < $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 1.672) = 0.90

P( $-1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X-\mu}$ < $1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.90

P( $\bar X-1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X+1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.90

<u>90% confidence interval for</u> $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $0.16-1.672 \times {\frac{0.08}{\sqrt{60} } }$ , $0.16+1.672 \times {\frac{0.08}{\sqrt{60} } }$ ]

= [0.143, 0.177]

Therefore, a 90% confidence interval for the mean BAC in fatal crashes in which the driver had a positive BAC is [0.143, 0.177] .

Which system of linear inequalities is graphed?

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

A) {x < −2

{y ≤ −x − 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to treat these inequalities as Slope-Intercept equations, then graph them according to what you know about the <em>rate</em><em> </em><em>of </em><em>changes</em><em> </em>[<em>slopes</em>] of the lines. Then insert the inequality symbols later and figure out which line they get, based on their symbols:

Dashed Line → >, <

Solid Line → ≥, ≤

$x < -2$ is the vertical line with a <em>less</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em>sign, so it gets the <em>dashed</em><em> </em><em>line</em>,<em> </em>whereas the other line has a <em>less</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em><em>or</em><em> </em><em>equal to</em><em> </em>sign, so this line gets the solid line.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
