Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x= Quantity of donuts

y= Quantity of cupcakes

He bought 3 times as many donuts as cupcakes

Donuts=y= 3x

Donuts=0.50 each

Cupcakes=1.00 each

PxQx + PyQy = 10.00

0.50(x) + 1.00(y) = 10.00

0.50x + 1.00(3x)=10.00

0.50x+3.00x=10.00

3.50x=10.00

Divide both sides by 3.50

x=10.00/3.50

=2.86

y=3x

y=3(2.86)

=8.58

Jamal bought 2.86 donuts and 8.58 cupcakes

Check:

PxQx + PyQy = 10.00

0.50(2.86) + 1.00(8.58) = 10.00

1.43 + 8.58=10.00

10.01=10.00

10.01 approximately 10.00

Kitty [74]

Answer:

<em>The prediction interval provides an interval estimation for a particular value of y while the confidence interval does it for the expected value of y. </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>A</em><em>. the prediction interval is narrower than the confidence interval.</em>

the prediction interval is always wider than the confidence interval.

<em>B</em><em>. the prediction interval provides an interval estimation for the expected value of y while the confidence interval does it for a particular value of y.</em>

False

<em>C</em><em>. the prediction interval provides an interval estimation for a particular value of y while the confidence interval does it for the expected value of y. </em>

<em>True</em>

<em>D.</em><em> the confidence interval is wider than the prediction interval.</em>

the prediction interval is  wider

Question 6 (1 point) (01.03 LC) What is the value of 5 to the power of 4 over 5 to the power of 6? (1 point) a 1 over 25 b 1 ove
Vlad [161]

Answer:

a 1 over 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem Statement:

     What is the value of  \frac{5^{4} }{5 ^{6} } ?

To solve this problem, we must familiarize ourselves with the concept of exponents and rules that guides them.

Exponents are used by scientists to report higher orders of a number.

Such large and often recurring expression is usually made up of a base and an exponent value.

The exponent value is the power of the base;   for example, 4³ has 4 as its base and 3 as the exponent.

Several rules guides solving an exponent, to this problem, the most applicable one is :

                            \frac{x^{a} }{x^{b} }  =  x^{(a-b)}

                           \frac{5^{4} }{5 ^{6} }   =  5^{4-6}  

                                 = 5^{-2}

                                 = \frac{1}{25}                                  

Therefore the solution is 1 over 25
