For this case we have the following expression:

$15n-18$

We look for the factors of each coefficient.

We have then:

$15 = 1,3,5,15\\18 = 1,2,3,6,9,18$

Taking the biggest common factor we have:

$15n-18 = 3 (5n-6)$

Therefore, the factored expression is given by:

$3 (5n-6)$

Answer:

the factored expression is given by:

$3 (5n-6)$

What is the ratio of the two quantities? 4 seconds to 2 min

kumpel [21]

Answer:

1 : 30

Step-by-step explanation:

4 seconds : 2 min

however we know that 1 min has 60 seconds. Hence 2 min will have 2 x 60 = 120 seconds

Therefore we can substitute 2 min with 120 seconds

4 seconds : 2 min

4 seconds : 120 seconds (simplify by dividing both sides by 4)

4/4 : 120/4

1 : 30

The Sparkle Farm grows both corn and wheat, among other crops. The cost of cultivating an acre of corn and an acre of wheat is $

gogolik [260]

Answer: 119

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the acre of wheat to be cultivated be x.

Since the farm must grow three times as many acres of corn as wheat, therefore, corn = 3x

The information given can be used to form a equation as:

42(3x) + 30x = 18564

126x + 30x = 18564

156x = 18564

x = 18564/156

x = 119 acres of wheat

Answer:

$10,151 $< \mu$ $11448.12

$n = 158$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 19

The sample mean is $\= x =$ $10,800

The standard deviation is $\sigma =$ $1095

The population mean is $\mu =$ $225

Given that the confidence level is 99% the level of significance is mathematically represented as

$\alpha = 100 -99$

$\alpha = 1$ %

=> $\alpha = 0.01$

Now the critical values of $\alpha = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }$ is obtained from the normal distribution table as

$Z_{\frac{0.01}{2} } = 2.58$

The reason we are obtaining values for $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is because $\alpha$ is the area under the normal distribution curve for both the left and right tail where the 99% interval did not cover while $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is the area under the normal distribution curve for just one tail and we need the value for one tail in order to calculate the confidence interval
