Answer:
Part A: The price of 1 pound of potatoes is 1 dollar and 25 cents (1.25) because 5 / 4 is 1.25 and that's 1 pound
Part B: The ordered pair (10, 8) represents that 10 punds of potatoes cost 8 dollars
If you're trying to find the missing side of the "triangle" (the distance from the house to where the ladder touches the ground), you would use the pythagorean theorem, a²+b²=c². (c is always hypotenuse)
a²+b²=c²
12²+b²=15²
144+b²=225
b²=81
√b²=√81
b=9
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval for the true mean checking account balance for local customers is ($439.29, $888.99).
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 14 - 1 = 13
99% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 13 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 
. So we have T = 3.0123
The margin of error is:
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 664.14 - 224.85 = $439.29
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 664.14 + 224.85 = $888.99.
The 99% confidence interval for the true mean checking account balance for local customers is ($439.29, $888.99).
(-1.2,-2.0) and (1.9,2.2) are the best approximations of the solutions to this system.
Option B
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here, we have a graph of two functions from which we need to find the approximate value of common solutions. Let's find this:
First look at where we have intersection points, In first quadrant & in third quadrant.
<u>At first quadrant:</u>
Draw perpendicular lines from x-axis & y-axis from this point . After doing this we can clearly see that the perpendicular lines cut x-axis at x=1.9 and y-axis at y=2.2. So, one point is (1.9,2.2)
<u>At Third quadrant:</u>
Draw perpendicular lines from x-axis & y-axis from this point. After doing this we can clearly see that the perpendicular lines cut x-axis at x=-1.2 and y-axis at y= -2.0. So, other point is (-1.2,-2.0).
