her (not both). On Wednesday there were 3 clients who did Plan A and 5 who did Plan B. On Thursday there were 9 clients who did Plan A and 7 who did Plan B.

This problem can be solved by algebraic method.
Let
x = the total time spent of all clients in Plan A
y = the total time spent of all clients in Plan B
We represent two variables x and y because there are two plans that won't be happened simultaneously.
On Wednesday, the two workout plans have the total time of 6 hours. We equate
3x + 5y = 6
While on Thursday, the total time is 12 hours. We also equate
9x + 7y = 12

To find x and y, we can use the substitution method. For the first equation, we arrange it in terms of y, that is
5y = 6 - 3x
y = (6 - 3x)/5

Substitute it to the second equation:
9x + (7/5)(6 - 3x) = 12
9x + (42/5) - (21/5)x = 12
Multiply the equation by 5 to cancel the denominator:
45x + 42 - 21x = 60
45x - 21x = 60 - 42
24x = 18
x = 18/24 = 3/4 hours

For y:
3(3/4) + 5y = 6
9/4 + 5y = 6
Multiply the equation by 4 to cancel the denominator:
9 + 20y = 24
20y = 24 - 9
20y = 15
y = 15/20 = 3/4 hours

Hence, each workout plans are done within 3/4 hours (or 45 minutes).

Rewrite the function f of x equals 7 times one half to the 3 times x power using the properties of exponents.
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

f of x equals 7 times one eighth to the x power

Step-by-step explanation:

Given phrase,

function f of x equals 7 times one half to the 3 times x power,

\implies f(x) = 7(\frac{1}{2})^{3x}

By the power to power property of exponent,

That is,

(a^m)^n=a^{m.n}

f(x) = 7((\frac{1}{2})^3)^x

f(x) = 7(\frac{1}{8})^x

= f of x equals 7 times one eighth to the x power

Determine whether the data set is a population or a sample. Explain your reasoning. The salary of each teacher in a school. Choo
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

D. ​Population, because it is a collection of salaries for all teachers in the school.

Step-by-step explanation:

In research, population refers to a complete set of subjects that share a characteristic and that the researcher is interested in. On the other hand, a sample is a subset of a population and it's usually the one the researcher takes to make a study with.

In this example, we have "The salary of each teacher in a school" since we are taking ALL the teachers of this school, this would be a population. If we were working with the salary of only a portion of the teachers of said school, it would be a sample.

Thus, the right answer is  D. ​Population, because it is a collection of salaries for all teachers in the school.

George Martin loves The Beatles. Honestly, who doesn’t? On George’s favorite Spotify playlist, 40% of the songs are by The Beatl
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

17.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, see this situation as a cumulative binomial distribution. You have isolated trials with a probability of success. This makes it binomial. The wording of the question "what is the probability of at least half..." makes this cumulative.

There are a few ways to calculate this, and I'm not quite sure which way you're familiar with. I'll show the cumbersome way and use wolfram to make the calculation.

First, I'll calculate the probability for 15 success, given 30 trials.

30c15*0.4^15*0.6^15

Since the question asks for the probability of at least 15 success, I'll have to make a calculation for the probability of 16 successes, then 17, and so on. Then I'll have to add all the probabilities together. So, I'll use wolfram for that (see attached)
