Answer:

4y - 9 > 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Translate the sentence into an inequality. Nine subtracted from the product of 4 and a number is greater than 17. Use the variable y for the unknown number.

Unknown variable = y

Nine subtracted from the product of 4 and a number is greater than 17

4 multiplied by unknown variable 'y' = (4 * y) = 4y

9 subtracted from (4y) = 4y - 9

Then, the result is said to be greater than 17

4y - 9 > 17

Hence, The Inequality expression equivalent to the sentence above is 4y - 9 > 17

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Animal books make up (3/20) of all books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the total number of books, made up of nonfiction, animal, and all others.

(3/5)X are nonfiction books.

Of the nonfiction books, 1/4 are animal books:  (3/5)*(1/4)X = (3/20)X are animal books

[This means that Nonfiction, less animal books is:  (3/5)X - (3/20)X]

Animal books make up (3/20) of all books.

The population standard deviation for the temperature of beers found in Scooter's Tavern is 0.26 degrees. If we want to be 90% c
siniylev [52]

Answer:

19 beers must be sampled.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.05

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a pvalue of 1 - 0.05 = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

The population standard deviation for the temperature of beers found in Scooter's Tavern is 0.26 degrees.

This means that \sigma = 0.26

If we want to be 90% confident that the sample mean beer temperature is within 0.1 degrees of the true mean temperature, how many beers must we sample?

This is n for which M = 0.1. So

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

0.1 = 1.645\frac{0.26}{\sqrt{n}}

0.1\sqrt{n} = 1.645*0.26

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645*0.26}{0.1}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.645*0.26}{0.1})^2

n = 18.3

Rounding up:

19 beers must be sampled.

HELP: Part A: Using computer software, a correlation coefficient of r=0.51 was calculated. Based on the scatter plot, is that an
user100 [1]

Answer:

Part A: YES, it is.

Part B: the amount of pumpkin picked and the amount of fertilizer applied.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The closer the correlation coefficient is to 1, the stronger the relationship between two variables, and vice versa. Also, the closer the data points are on a scatter plot, the closer the correlation coefficient is to 1.

The scatter plot shown indicates a positive correlation between number of days and number of pumpkins. However, the data points are to some extent farther apart from each other. This shows a moderate relationship between the two variables. Therefore, a correlation coefficient, r, of 0.51 that was calculated can be concluded to be accurate , because an r of 0.51 depicts a moderate relationship between two variables.

Part B:

A variable that could affect the number of pumpkins picked could be amount of fertilizer applied, instead of the day in October. Thus, we can compare the amount of pumpkin picked and the amount of fertilizer applied.

Mary crocheted a rectangular blanket whose diagonal measures approximately 7.21 feet. What are the most likely length and width
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

If both sides are integers, one side will be 4 feet and the other will be 6 feet. The other solution is the symmetrical solution (4 feet instead of 6 feet, and 6 feet instead of 4 feet).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a rectangular blanket, that has a diagonal that measures h=7.21 feet.

The two sides of the rectangle a and b can be related to the diagonal h by the Pithagorean theorem:

a^2+b^2=h^2

Then, we can express one side in function of the other as:

a^2+b^2=h^2\\\\a^2=h^2-b^2\\\\a=\sqrt{h^2-b^2}=\sqrt{7.21-b^2}=\sqrt{52-b^2}

Then, if we define b, we get the value of a that satisfies the equation.

A graph of values of a and b is attached.

If both side a and b are integers, we can see in the graph that are only two solutions: (b=4, a=6) and (a=4, b=6).

Rearrange the equation a = 1/2 b to make b the formula
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: b = 2a

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Original equation</u>

a = (1/2) b

<u>Multiply 2 on both sides</u>

a * 2 = (1/2) b * 2

\Large\boxed{b=2a}

Hope this helps!! :)
