Answer:

11 2/3 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x pounds be the amount in pounds of Brazilian coffee.

x + 27  is the amount of coffee in lbs after the mixing.

So ,working in  values of dollars, we have:

6x + 4*27 = 4.5(x + 27)

6x + 104 = 4.5x + 121.5

1.5x = 121.5 - 104 = 17.5

x = 17.5/1.5 = 11 2/3 pounds answer

Let the number of songs Lou has = X

Kelly has 4 times as many as Lou, which would be written as 4X

Tiffany has 6 times as many songs as Lou, which would be written as 6X


The total number of songs = 682


You need to add all three people together to equal 682


So you would get:

X + 4X + 6X = 682 songs.

Combine all like terms ( 6x + 4x + X = 11x)

11x = 682


Now to solve for X divide both sides by 11:

x = 682 / 11 = 62


Lou = x = 62 songs.

Kelly = 4x = 4(62) = 4*62 = 248 songs.

Tiffany = 6x = 6(62) = 6 *62 = 372 songs.

AnnyKZ [126]

A) The original claim in symbolic form is; p > 0.50

B) The Null Hypothesis is;

H₀: p = 0.50

Alternative Hypothesis is;

H_a: p > 0.50

<h3>How to identify the hypothesis claim?</h3>

We are given;

Sample size; n = 576

Sample Proportion; p^ = 59% = 0.59

A) The percentage of 59% represents the proportion of a sample and thus we are making a claim about the population proportion p in the hypotheses.

We claim "most of the adults", which indicates more than 50% or 0.50. Thus, the claim in symbolic form is; p > 0.50

B) The Null Hypothesis is;

H₀: p = 0.50

Alternative Hypothesis is;

H_a: p > 0.50
