Ok, so we need to set up a system of equations.

x + y = 19, where x is notebooks and y is pencils

2.2x + 1.09y = 30.70. You use the coefficient for individual prices and the total for the total given.

2.2x + 2.2y = 41.8  (multiply for elimination later)

2.2x + 1.09y = 30.7

1.11y = 11.1

y = 11.1/1.11

y = 10

Now we use the substitution method in x + y = 19

x + 10 = 19

x = 9

9 notebooks and 10 pencils

A soccer ball was kicked in the air and follows the path h(x)=−2x2+1x+6, where x is the time in seconds and h is the height of t
madam [21]

The ball will hit the ground at 2 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The path of the ball = h(x)=−2x2+1x+6

Here,

x is the time while h is the height of ball.

When the ball will hit the ground, the height will become zero. Therefore,

h(x)=−2x2+1x+6

0 =−2x2+1x+6

or

2x2 -1x - 6 = 0

This is a quadratic equation, hence by applying quadratic equation formula:

x = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac }   }{2a}

here,

a = 2

b = -1

c = -6

Putting these values in formula, we get

x = \frac{-(-1) +- \sqrt{-1^{2} - 4.2.-6 }   }{2.2}

x = \frac{1 +- \sqrt{1 + 48 }   }{4}

x = \frac{1 +- \sqrt{49 }   }{4}

x = \frac{1 +- 7   }{4}

x = 2, -3/2

As the time cannot be negative. Therefore, the ball will hit the ground at 2 seconds.

Use the confidence interval to find the margin of error and the sample mean (0.118,0.220)
malfutka [58]

Answer:

μ = 0.169

ME = 0.051

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval is:

CI = μ ± ME

So the mean is the middle of the confidence interval, and the margin of error is half the difference.

μ = (0.118 + 0.220) / 2 = 0.169

ME = (0.220 − 0.118) / 2 = 0.051
