Answer:

Tiffany has 13 dimes and 4 nickels.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, you will need to write a systems of equations, n will be the number of nickels and d will be the number of dimes.

n+d=17 This means that the number of nickels plus the number of dimes is equal to 17.

5n+10d=150, This means that for each nickel, there is 5 cents and for each dime, there is 10 cents. The equation is equal to 150 cent because the coins are worth 150 cents.

Next, solve the system:

n+d=17

5n+10d=150 First simplify the second equation by dividing it all by 5.

n+d=17

n+2d=30, Next, isolate n to use substitution on the system.

n=17-d

n=30-2d, Substitute n to solve for d

17-d=30-2d, Solve for d

d=13, this means that there are 13 dimes, plug in the d value in either of the equations to find n.

n+(13)=17

n=4, There are 4 nickles

The caffeine content (in mg) was examined for a random sample of 50 cups of black coffee dispensed by a new machine. The mean an

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

We are 98% confident interval for the mean caffeine content for cups dispensed by the machine between 107.66 and 112.34 mg .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

The sample size is large then we can use central limit theorem

n = 50 ,

Standard deviation $(\sigma)$ = 7.1

Mean $\overline{(y)}$ = 110

$\alpha =$ 1 - confidence interval = 1 - .98 = .02

$z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$ = 2.33

98% confidence interval for the mean caffeine content for cups dispensed by the machine = $\overline{(y)}\pm z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\frac{\sigma}\sqrt{n}$

= $110\pm z_{.01}\frac{7.1}\sqrt{50}$

= $110\pm 2.33\frac{7.1}\sqrt{50}$

First we take + sign

$110 + 2.33\frac{7.1}\sqrt{50}$ = 112.34

now we take - sign

$110 - 2.33\frac{7.1}\sqrt{50}$ = 107.66

We are 98% confident interval for the mean caffeine content for cups dispensed by the machine between 107.66 and 112.34 .
