Boys are b
Girls are g

b + g = 120
2g = b

Substitute the second equation into the first

2g + g = 120
3g = 120
g = 40

Plug in g = 40 and solve for b

b + g = 40
b + 40 = 120
b = 80

There are 40 girls and 80 boys.

What is p equal to? Also if you could, can you tell me how you do it so I can do the rest by myself.
svp [43]

Answer:

p=-54

Step-by-step explanation:

- \frac{p}{6}  = 9 \\  \frac{ - p}{6}  = 9 \\ \frac{ - p}{6}  \times 6 = 9 \times 6 \\  - p = 54 \\ p =  - 54

The claim that 40% of those persons who retired from an industrial job before the age of 60 would return to work if a suitable j
Bad White [126]

Answer:

The p-value of the test is of 0.1922 > 0.02, which means that there is not significant evidence to reject the null hypothesis, that is, there is not significant evidence to conclude that the proportion is of less than 40%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if the proportion is less than 40%:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of at least 0.4, that is:

H_0: p \geq 0.4

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of less than 0.4, that is:

H_1: p < 0.4

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.4 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 0.4, \sigma = \sqrt{0.4*0.6}

74 out of the 200 workers sampled said they would return to work

This means that n = 200, X = \frac{74}{200} = 0.37

Value of the test statistic:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{0.37 - 0.4}{\frac{\sqrt{0.4*0.6}}{\sqrt{200}}}

z = -0.87

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion below 0.37, which is the p-value of z = -0.87.

Looking at the z-table, z = -0.87 has a p-value of 0.1922.

The p-value of the test is of 0.1922 > 0.02, which means that there is not significant evidence to reject the null hypothesis, that is, there is not significant evidence to conclude that the proportion is of less than 40%.

A: What are the solutions to the quadratic equation x2+9=0? B: What is the factored form of the quadratic expression x2+9? Selec
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

A. The solutions are x=3i,\:x=-3i.

B. The factored form of the quadratic expression x^2+9=(x-3i)(x+3i)

Step-by-step explanation:

A. To find the solutions to the quadratic equation x^2+9=0 you must:

\mathrm{Subtract\:}9\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\x^2+9-9=0-9\\\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\\\x^2=-9\\\\\mathrm{For\:}x^2=f\left(a\right)\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}x=\sqrt{f\left(a\right)},\:\:-\sqrt{f\left(a\right)}\\\\x=\sqrt{-9},\:x=-\sqrt{-9}

x=\sqrt{-9} = \sqrt{-1}\sqrt{9}=\sqrt{9}i=3i\\\\x=-\sqrt{-9}=-\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{9}=-\sqrt{9}i=-3i

The solutions are:

x=3i,\:x=-3i

B. Two expressions are equivalent to each other if they represent the same value no matter which values we choose for the variables.

To factor x^2+9:

First, multiply the constant in the polynomial by i^2 where i^2 is equal to -1.

x^2+9i^2

Since both terms are perfect squares, factor using the difference of squares formula

a^2-i^2=(a+i)(a-i)

x^2+9=x^2+9i^2=\left(-3i+x\right)\left(3i+x\right)
