A candy company that makes colored candies claims that​ 10% of the candies it produces are green and that bags are packed random

ly. In a really large bag of​ candies, we found​ 12% of 500 candies were green. Is this evidence that the manufacturing process is out of control and has made too many​ greens? Explain.

No. The sample size is too small to be reliable. If there were many bags of 500 candies that consistently showed a larger-than-marketed amount of green candy, that will be better proof.

<em>here two links for your answer. https://quizlet.com/325167814/financial-math-flash-cards/ https://quizlet.com/475135130/financial-math-e2020-flash-cards $2.5</em>

<em></em>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em></em>

<em>The art museum charges a one-time fee of $8.25 plus $2.25 per month.</em>

<em></em>

<em>So, the cost function for membership for x months in the art museum f(x) = 8.25 + 2.25x .............. (1)</em>

<em></em>

<em>Again, the science museum charges a one-time fee of $10.75 plus $3.5 per month.</em>

<em></em>

<em>Hence, the cost function for membership for x months in the science museum g(x) = 10.75 + 3.5x ........... (2)</em>

<em></em>

<em>So, from both the equations it is clear that for only joining the monthly charges are zero.</em>

<em></em>

<em>So, f(0) = 8.25 and g(0) = 10.75.</em>

<em></em>

<em>Therefore, Barrett will save by joining the art museum instead of the science museum by $(10.75 - 8.25) = $2.5. (Answer)</em>

Each leg of a 45-45-90 triangle has a length of 6 units. What is the length of its hypotenuse?
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Use the Pythagorean theorem:
(\hbox{one leg})^2+(\hbox{the other leg})^2=(\hbox{hypotenuse})^2 \\&#10;6^2+6^2=x^2 \\&#10;6^2 \times 2=x^2 \\&#10;\sqrt{6^2 \times 2}=x \\ \sqrt{6^2} \times \sqrt{2}=x \\ 6\sqrt{2}=x&#10;
 
The length of the hypotenuse is 6√2 units.

Factor completely 2x3 + x2 - 18x - 9
melisa1 [442]
Factor the following:
2 x^3 + x^2 - 18 x - 9

Factor terms by grouping. 2 x^3 + x^2 - 18 x - 9 = (2 x^3 + x^2) + (-18 x - 9) = x^2 (2 x + 1) - 9 (2 x + 1):
x^2 (2 x + 1) - 9 (2 x + 1)

Factor 2 x + 1 from x^2 (2 x + 1) - 9 (2 x + 1):
(2 x + 1) (x^2 - 9)

x^2 - 9 = x^2 - 3^2:
(2 x + 1) (x^2 - 3^2)

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 3^2 = (x - 3) (x + 3):

Answer:  (x - 3) (x + 3) (2 x + 1) thus the Answer is C.
