To find the amount he spent on bags of mulch you must take the cost of the shovel away from the total, giving the equation:
46.16-14.75=3.49x
To covert this to whole numbers, multiply by 100
4616-1475=349x
3141=349x
x=9
Answer:
The p-value is 0.0229
Step-by-step explanation:
With
we have an upper-tail alternative. Because the p-value is defined as the probability of getting a value at least as extreme as the value observed. The observed value is given by the test statistic z = 1.997 which comes from a standard normal distribution. Therefore, we compute the p-value in the following way P(Z > 1.997) = 0.0229, i.e., the p-value is 0.0229
LA = (2l + 2w)h
Plug in what we know:
LA = (2(11) + 2(7))(4)
Multiply:
LA = (22 + 14)(4)
Add:
LA = 36(4)
Multiply:
LA = 144
If we want to find when the population of species A will be equal to the population of species B, we need to see when the two equations for the population of each species are equal, ie. equate them and solve for t. Thus:
2000e^(0.05t) = 5000e^(0.02t)
(2/5)e^(0.05t) = e^(0.02t) (Divide each side by 5000)
2/5 = e^(0.02t) / e^(0.05t) (Divide each side by e^(0.05t))
2/5 = e^(-0.03t) (use: e^a / e^b = e^(a - b))
ln(2/5) = -0.03t (use: if b = a^c, then loga(b) = c )
t = ln(2/5) / -0.03 (Divide each side by -0.03)
= 30.54 (to two decimal places)
Therefor, the population of species A will be equal to the population of species B after 30.54 years.
I wasn't entirely sure about the rounding requirements so I've left it rounded to two decimal places.
Answer:
25 dimes & 12 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
Let there be "n" nickels and "d" dimes
Total, there are 37 of them, so we can write:
n + d = 37
Also, valueof nickel is 0.05 and value of dime is 0.10 (in dollars) and total value of these 37 coins is 3.10, so we can write:
0.05n + 0.10d = 3.10
Now we can write first equation as:
n + d = 37
n = 37 - d
Replace this into equation 2 and solve for d:
0.05n + 0.10d = 3.10
0.05(37 - d) + 0.10d = 3.10
1.85 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 3.10
0.05d = 3.10 - 1.85
0.05d = 1.25
d = 1.25/0.05
d = 25
Now, n = 37 - d, n = 37 - 25 = 12
So,
There are 25 dimes & 12 nickels
