Answer=7:13

Kenny's Weight*6/7=Melvin's Weight

So, for example, if Melvin's weigh was 7...

Kenny's Weight*6/7=7

divide both sides by 6/7

Kenny Weight=6

So we can say that Melvin's weight to Kenny's weight is 7:6

The boys total weights would be...

7+6=13

So Melvin's weight over the total weight of the two boys is:

7:13

lab scale known to have a standard deviation of 0.001gram, speimen weghtted 8 times. average weiht is 4.1602 gram. what is 99% c

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

$99\% CI=4.1602 \pm 0.0009$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size $n=8$

Mean $\=x=4.1602$

Standard deviation $\sigma=0.001gram$

Generally 99\% confidence from table is mathematically given by

$99\% CI=4.1602 \pm *2.576*\frac{0.001}{\sqrt{{8}}}$

$P(-z$

$Z_{\alpha/2}=2.576$

Generally the equation for 99\% confidence level (CI) is mathematically given by

$99\% CI=\=x \pm Z_{\alpha/2*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{{n}}}$

$99\% CI=4.1602 \pm 0.0009$

Solve the system. 2x + y = 3 −2y = 14 − 6x Write each equation in slope-intercept form.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

2x + y = 3

y = -2x + 3 <==

-2y = 14 - 6x

y = -14/2 + 6/2x

y = -7 + 3x

y = 3x - 7 <===

Find the y intercepts of 3x^2+24x-51. quadratic formula

julia-pushkina [17]

Quadratic Formula: $x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ , with a = x^2 coefficient, b = x coefficient, and c = constant.

Firstly, starting with the y-intercept. To find the y-intercept, set the x variable to zero and solve as such:

$y=3*0^2+24*0-51\\y=0+0-51\\y=-51$

Your y-intercept is (0,-51).

Next, using our equation plug the appropriate values into the quadratic formula:

$x=\frac{-24\pm \sqrt{24^2-4*3*(-54)}}{2*3}$

Next, solve the multiplications and exponent:

$x=\frac{-24\pm \sqrt{576-(-648)}}{6}\\\\x=\frac{-24\pm \sqrt{576+648}}{6}$

Next, solve the addition:

$x=\frac{-24\pm \sqrt{1224}}{6}$

Now, simplify the radical using the product rule of radicals as such:

Product Rule of Radicals: √ab = √a × √b

√1224 = √12 × √102 = √2 × √6 × √6 × √17 = 6 × √2 × √17 = 6√34

$x=\frac{-24\pm 6\sqrt{34}}{6}$

Next, divide:

$x=-4\pm \sqrt{34}$

The exact values of your x-intercepts are (-4 + √34, 0) and (-4 - √34, 0).

Now to find the approximate values, solve this twice: once with the + symbol and once with the - symbol:

$x=-4+ \sqrt{34},-4- \sqrt{34}\\x\approx 1.83, -9.83$

The approximate values of your x-intercepts (rounded to the hundredths) are (1.83,0) and (-9.83,0).
