Answer:

1.25 is the rate of growth of hairs per month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : L represents the length of hair.

            m represents months after she shaved her head .

           Equation : L = 1.25m

To Find: What does 1.25 mean in this situation?

Solution:

Equation : L = 1.25m

Since it is linear function . So, 1.25 is the slope

Slope is the rate of change per unit.

So, 1.25 is the rate of growth of hairs per month.

A publisher needs to send many books to a local book retailer and will send the books in a combination of small and large boxes.
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Answer:

\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{

y=4x

20x+30y=280

.

Where xx is the number of small boxes sent and yy is the number of large boxes sent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be xx the number of small boxes sent and yy the number of large boxes sent.

Since each small box can hold 20 books (20x20x ), each large box can hold 30 books (30y30y )and altogether can hold a total of 280 books, we can write the following equation to represent this:

20x+30y=28020x+30y=280

According to the information provided in the exercise, there were 4 times as many large boxes sent as small boxes. This can be represented with this equation:

y=4xy=4x

Therefore, the system of equation that be used to determine the number of small boxes sent and the number of large boxes sent, is:

\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{

y=4x

20x+30y=280

A national organization has been working with utilities throughout the nation to find sites for large wind machines that generat
kozerog [31]

Answer:

"A Type I error in the context of this problem is to conclude that the true mean wind speed at the site is higher than 15 mph when it actually is not higher than 15 mph."

Step-by-step explanation:

A Type I error happens when a true null hypothesis is rejected.

In this case, as the claim that want to be tested is that the average wind speed is significantly higher than 15 mph, the null hypothesis has to state the opposite: the average wind speed is equal or less than 15 mph.

Then, with this null hypothesis, the Type I error implies a rejection of the hypothesis that the average wind speed is equal or less than 15 mph. This is equivalent to say that there is evidence that the average speed is significantly higher than 15 mph.

"A Type I error in the context of this problem is to conclude that the true mean wind speed at the site is higher than 15 mph when it actually is not higher than 15 mph."

A marketing firm would like to test-market the name of a new energy drink targeted at 18- to 29-year-olds via social media. A st
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

(a) The probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult uses social media is 0.35.

(b) The probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is aged 18–29 is 0.22.

(c) The probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is 18–29 and a user of social media is 0.198.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

<em>X</em> = an US adult who does not uses social media.

<em>Y</em> = an US adult between the ages 18 and 29.

<em>Z</em> = an US adult between the ages 30 and above.

The information provided is:

P (X) = 0.35

P (Z) = 0.78

P (Y ∪ X') = 0.672

(a)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult uses social media as follows:

P (US adult uses social media (<em>X'</em><em>)</em>) = 1 - P (US adult so not use social media)

                                                   =1-P(X)\\=1-0.35\\=0.65

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult uses social media is 0.35.

(b)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is aged 18–29 as follows:

P (Adults between 18 - 29 (<em>Y</em>)) = 1 - P (Adults 30 or above)

                                            =1-P(Z)\\=1-0.78\\=0.22

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is aged 18–29 is 0.22.

(c)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is 18–29 and a user of social media as follows:

P (Y ∩ X') = P (Y) + P (X') - P (Y ∪ X')

                =0.22+0.65-0.672\\=0.198

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is 18–29 and a user of social media is 0.198.
