Answer:

Sixth graders: 14

Seventh graders: 28

Eighth graders: 28

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this you just have to use a rule of three to solve the percentages, remember that the 100% will be the 70 students, and we solve each case separetly:

70 students= 100%

sixth grades=   40%

Sixth grades= (40*70)/100

Sixth graders= 28

70 students= 100%

seventh grades=   20%

seventh graders=   (20*70)/100

Seventh graders=14

So if we have that the rest of the students are eighth graders, we just add up the sixth and seventh graders and withdraw them from the total:

28+14=42

70-42=28

SOwe have that the eighth graders are 28

Can you please help me on this question 8(4-x)=7x+2
kati45 [8]

Answer:

2=x

Step-by-step explanation:

8(4-x)=7x+2

Distribute

32 - 8x = 7x+2

Add 8x to each side

32 - 8x+8x = 7x+8x+2

32 = 15x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

32-2 = 15x+2-2

30 = 15x

Divide each side by 15

30/15 = 15x/15

2 =x

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Advance ticket costs $25

Same-day ticket costs $20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the price of one the advance ticket.

Let y = the price of one same-day ticket.

The combined cost of one advance ticket and one same-day ticket is $ 45. This means

x + y = 45 - - - - - - 1

For one performance, 30 advance tickets and 20 same-day tickets were sold. The total amount paid for the tickets was $ 1150. This means

30x + 20y = 1150 - - - - - - - - -2

From equation 1, x = 45- y

Put x = 45- y in equation 2

30( 45-y) + 20y = 1150

1350 - 30y + 20y = 1150

-10y = 1150-1350

-10y = -200

y = 200/10 = $20

x = 45-y

x =45-20= $25

Advance ticket costs $25

Same-day ticket costs $20

Which hypotheses are being tested by the chi-square test? The distribution of gender is different for the three different goals.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

The null hypothesis is that the most important goal and gender are independent, and the alternative is that they are dependent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chi Square test is used to test relationship between categorical (nominal) variables of a population. Eg : Testing men & women  for any attribute, lets say empathy

  • Null Hypothesis states that there is no relationship between  the attribute & categorical variable, they are independent.
  • Alternate Hypothesis states that there is relationship between the attribute & categorical variable, they are dependent.

Eg : Null hypothesis states that there is no difference of empathy level in men & women. Alternate Hypothesis states that there is difference of empathy level in men & women.
