This is an exponential function. Since each year the value of the bike decreases by 5%, each year, the value of the bike is 100%-5%=95% of it's original value. So after x years, the value of the bike would be 200(0.95)^x.

Answer:

(200 - (200 x 5 / 100))^Y

Step-by-step explanation:

As the initial value of the bike is $200, that would be a fixed number in our equation. Each year, this will lose 5% of its value, therefore, it would be another fixed value in it. Then, we have to exponentiate it by the number of years that have passed since the initial value (Y). As a result, the equation to model the situation would be this one:

(200 - (200 x 5 / 100))^Y

Maggie's brother is 4 years younger than three times her age. The sum of their ages is 16.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Maggie is 5 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

3M-4+M=16

add 4 to both sides

4M=20

Divide both sides by 4

20/4 = 5

M/Maggie is 5

zzz [600]

Answer:

t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{0.983 -0}{\frac{1.685}{\sqrt{12}}}=2.021

df=n-1=12-1=11

p_v =P(t_{(11)}>2.021) =0.0342

If we compare the the p value with the significance level provided \alpha=0.1, we see that p_v < \alpha, so then we can reject the null hypothesis. and there is a significant increase in the miles per gallon from 2017 to 2019 at 10% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A paired t-test is used to compare two population means where you have two samples in  which observations in one sample can be paired with observations in the other sample. For example  if we have Before-and-after observations (This problem) we can use it.  

Let put some notation :

x=test value 2017 , y = test value 2019

x: 28.7 32.1 29.6 30.5 31.9 30.9 32.3 33.1 29.6 30.8 31.1 31.6

y: 31.1 32.4 31.3 33.5 31.7 32.0 31.8 29.9 31.0 32.8 32.7 33.8

Solution to the problem

The system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_y- \mu_x \leq 0

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_y -\mu_x >0

Because if we have an improvement we expect that the values for 2019 would be higher compared with the values for 2017

The first step is calculate the difference d_i=y_i-x_i and we obtain this:

d: 2.4, 0.3, 1.7,3,-0.2, 1.1, -0.5, -3.2, 1.4, 2, 1.6, 2.2

The second step is calculate the mean difference  

\bar d= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}= \frac{11.8}{12}=0.983

The third step would be calculate the standard deviation for the differences, and we got:

s_d =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (d_i -\bar d)^2}{n-1} =1.685

We assume that the true difference follows a normal distribution. The 4th step is calculate the statistic given by :

t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{0.983 -0}{\frac{1.685}{\sqrt{12}}}=2.021

The next step is calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

df=n-1=12-1=11

Now we can calculate the p value, since we have a right tailed test the p value is given by:

p_v =P(t_{(11)}>2.021) =0.0342

If we compare the the p value with the significance level provided \alpha=0.1, we see that p_v < \alpha, so then we can reject the null hypothesis. and there is a significant increase in the miles per gallon from 2017 to 2019 at 10% of significance.

liberstina [14]
5y + 7 < = -3
5y < = -3 - 7
5y < = -10
y < = -10/5
y < = -2

3y - 2 > = 13
3y > = 13 + 2
3y > = 15
y > = 15/3
y > = 5
