Step-by-step explanation:
<h3> The complete exercise is: "Brown rice costs $2 per pound, and beans cost $1.60 per pound. Lin has $10 to spend on these items to make a large meal of beans and rice for a potluck dinner. Let b be the number of pounds of beans Lin buys and r be the number of pounds of rice she buys when she spends all her money on this meal.</h3><h3>1. Write an equation relating the two variables.</h3><h3>2. Rearrange the equation so "b" is the independent variable.</h3><h3>3. Rearrange the equation so "r" is the independent variable."</h3><h3 />
1. According to the information exercise given in the exercise, the cost per pounds of brown rice is $2. Since "r" represents the number of pounds of rice Lin buys, the total cost of the brown rice she buys can be represented with this expression:

The beans cost $1.60 per pound. Since "b" represents the number of pounds of beans Lin buys, the total cost of beans she buys can be represented as:

Knowing that she spends $10, you can write the following equation:

2. In order to rearrange the equation so "b" is the independent variable, you need to solve for "r":

3. To rearrange the equation so "r" is the independent variable, you must solve for "b". You get:

Answer:
71.123 mph ≤ μ ≤ 77.277 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking into account that the speed of all cars traveling on this highway have a normal distribution and we can only know the mean and the standard deviation of the sample, the confidence interval for the mean is calculated as:
≤ μ ≤ 
Where m is the mean of the sample, s is the standard deviation of the sample, n is the size of the sample, μ is the mean speed of all cars, and
is the number for t-student distribution where a/2 is the amount of area in one tail and n-1 are the degrees of freedom.
the mean and the standard deviation of the sample are equal to 74.2 and 5.3083 respectively, the size of the sample is 10, the distribution t- student has 9 degrees of freedom and the value of a is 10%.
So, if we replace m by 74.2, s by 5.3083, n by 10 and
by 1.8331, we get that the 90% confidence interval for the mean speed is:
≤ μ ≤ 
74.2 - 3.077 ≤ μ ≤ 74.2 + 3.077
71.123 ≤ μ ≤ 77.277
Answer: D) -5/6 < -3/5 < -4/7 < -4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Since putting fractions from least to greatest by using negatives the number or fraction has to be closed to 0. -5/6 is the farthest from 0 so it'll be the least -4/9 is closes to 0 so -4/9 is the most.
The scenario can be described using a piecewise function like:
f(x) = 1/x if x < c.
f(x) = x if x = c
f(x) = 1/(x + 73) if x > c.
<h3>
When the value exists but the limit does not?</h3>
Remember that the limit only exists if the limit from left and the limit from the right give the same value.
Then, we can just define a piecewise function of the form:
f(x) = 1/x if x < c.
f(x) = x if x = c
f(x) = 1/(x + 73) if x > c.
Clearly, this is not a continuous function.
Notice that:

So the limits from left and right are different, then:

Does not exist.
