Answer:

B. A shirt costs $15, and a pair of shoes costs $20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = price of 1 shirt.

Let p = price of 1 pair of shoes.

Adam:

5s + 4p = 155

Friend:

3s + 2p = 85

We have a system of simultaneous equations.

5s + 4p = 155

3s + 2p = 85

Rewrite the first equation. Multiply both sides of the second equation by -2 and write below it. Add the equations.

      5s + 4p = 155

(+)  -6s - 4p = -170

--------------------------

      -s          = -15

s = 15

A shirt costs $15.

Now we replace s with 15 in the first original equation and solve for p.

5s + 4p = 155

5(15) + 4p = 155

75 + 4p = 155

4p = 80

p = 20

A pair of shoes costs $20.

Terri played 70 tournament chess games during the school year and won 49 of them. What is her win-to-loss ratio?
Scilla [17]

Alright so the answer would be letter B, because

win-to-loss

49 to 21 (You can determine her losses by subtracted the number of wins from her total number of games played)

Now you must simplify your answer

7 is the greatest common factor (GCF) of both 49 and 21

Now divide both 49 and 21 by 7 to get

7 to 3

A random sample of eighty-five students in Chicago city high schools takes a course designed to improve SAT scores. Based on the
erica [24]

Answer:

(B) The correct interpretation of this interval is that 90% of the students in the population should have their scores improve by between 72.3 and 91.4 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval is the range the true values fall in under a given <em>confidence level</em>.

Confidence level states the probability that a random chosen sample performs the surveyed characteristic in the range of confidence interval. Thus,

90% confidence interval means that there is 90% probability that the statistic (in this case SAT score improvement) of a member of the population falls in the confidence interval.

100 POINTS!!!! CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME OUT WITH THIS??!!

The two boats picked for the trip are the steamboat and the tall ship. Let us assume that we will take the steamboat going to the island, and then we will take the tall ship for the return trip. We will then relate the distances travelled by both ships to each other.

2. We know that the steamboat takes five hours to complete the trip. The tall ship takes more time, at ten hours to complete the trip. We do not have the exact speeds of the steamboat or of the tall ship, but we do know that the tall ship is 10 knots slower than the steamboat. We likewise do not know the exact distance travelled by either ship, but we do know that both travel the same distance. We want to find out how fast each boat travels. We expect the answers to be in knots, with a difference of 10.

3. We know that distance is equivalent to the product of speed of a boat multiplied by the time of travel. For the trip going to the island, we will use the steamboat. Let its speed be x knots (equivalent to x nautical miles per hour), and let the distance going to the island be d nautical miles. Given that the time takes is 5 hours, this means that d = 5x.

4. If we let x be the speed of the boat you are taking to the island (the steamboat), then we know that the speed of the other boat (the tall ship) is 10 knots less than the steamboat's. So the speed of the tall ship (for the return trip) is (x - 10) knots.

5. Similar to part 3: we will multiply speed by time to determine the distance from the island. From part 4, we have determined that the speed of the tall ship to be used in returning is (x - 10) knots. Meanwhile, the given in the problem says that the tall ship will take 10 hours to make the trip. Therefore the distance will be equal to d = 10(x - 10) = 10x - 100 nautical miles.

6. We can assume that the distance travelled going to the island is the same distance travelled coming back. Therefore, we can equate the formula for distance from part 3 for the steamboat, to the distance from part 5 for the tall ship.
5x = 10x - 100

7. Solving for x: 5x = 10x - 100
-5x = -100
x = 20
Since x is the speed of the steamboat, x = 20 means that the steamboat's speed is 20 knots.

8. We determined in part 4 that the speed of the second boat (in our case, the tall ship) is (x - 10) knots. Since we have calculated in part 7 that the steamboat travels at x = 20 knots, then the speed of the tall ship is (x - 10) = 20 - 10 = 10 knots.
