Hi there!

Let's start by laying out an equation and replacing "a number" with the letter "X" just to make everything clearer :

6 subtracted from 5 times X = 9

(5 × X) - 6 = 9

Now all you have to do left is solve the equation by isolating "X" :

(5 × X) - 6 = 9

Add 6 on each side of the equation

5 × X = 9

Divide each side of the equation by 5

X = 1.8

Your answer is : 6 subtracted from 5 times 1.8 is equal to 9.

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Suppose we are testing the null hypothesis H 0 mu=20 and the alternative H iu =20 , normal population with sigma=6 A random samp

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is $z = -1.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the statistic, $\mu$ is the mean, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the number of observations.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 20, X = 17, \sigma = 6, n = 9$

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{17 - 20}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{3}}}$

$z = -1.5$

The value of the test statistic is $z = -1.5$

n a 12 ounce bag of trail mix you notice that there are 18 M&Ms. You now purchase a 20 ounce bag of trail mix. How many M&am

Maslowich

30 M&Ms

1) Gathering the data

12-ounce bag of trail mix = 18 M&Ms

20-ounce bag=?

2) Assuming that the M&Ms are placed in following a constant rate we can write the following proportion:

12 --------------- 18

20 --------------- y

<em>Cross multiplying it due to the first property of proportions</em>

<em />

12y =20 x 18

12y = 360

y=30

3) So, I'd expect to find 30 M&Ms at a 20-ounce bag of trail mix.
