Answer:

Judy = $5/hr

Ben = $4/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Judy's hours at work - x

Ben's hours at work - y

8x + 10y = 80

9x + 5y = 65

Given these two equations above, we get:

10y = 80 - 8x, which means y = 8 - 0.8x.

Substitute y in the second equation with 8 - 0.8x, so we have:

9x + 5 (8 - 0.8x) = 65

9x + 40 - 4x = 65

5x = 25

x = 5

Come back to the first equation, substitute x:

8*5 + 10y = 80

10y = 80 - 40

y = 4

saw5 [17]

Answer:

it is clear that at 95% confidence that the bonus plan has increased the sales significantly, because if we observe you will notice that sales after is greater than sales before in all six cases.

Step-by-step explanation:

A 95% confidence interval as we have above is the range of values that we can say with utmost certainty and confidence that 95% chance it contains the true mean of the population. in other words we can say that a  95% confidence interval defines a range of values that you can be 95% certain contains the population mean.

The cumulative distribution function f(x) of a discrete random variable x is given by f(0) =. 30, f(1) =. 70, f(2) =. 90 and f(3
Lisa [10]

Correlation between x & y is 0.6125.

In probability theory and statistics, the cumulative distribution function of a real-valued random variable X, or simply the distribution function of X weighted by x, is the probability that X takes a value less than or equal to x.

The cumulative distribution function (CDF) of a random variable X is defined as FX(x)=P(X≤x) for all x∈R. Note that the subscript X indicates that this is the CDF of the random variable X. Also note that the CDF is defined for all x∈R. Let's look at an example.
