Answer:

The cost of 1kg jam is $7 and the cost of 1kg butter is $4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let jam = x

butter = y

3x + 2y = 29 -----(1)

6x + 3y = 54 -----(2)

(1)×2 ->

6x + 4y = 58 -----(3)

(3)-(2) ->

y = 4

suby=4into(2)

6x + 3(4) = 54

6x = 42

x = 7

The compound inequality 8.00 ≤ x < 9.50 represents all values, x, for which college students are paid hourly as teacher assis
Orlov [11]

Answer: x≥ 8.00 and x < 9.50 is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, given expression 8.00 ≤ x < 9.50

Where x is the value for which college students are paid hourly as teacher assistants.

so, x is greater than or equal to 8.00

Therefore, x\geq 8.00  

And, x is less than 9.50

Therefore,  x < 9.50

On combining both expression we get,  x\geq 8.00 and x < 9.50.

Thus, Third Option is correct.

sp2606 [1]

Complete question:

He amount of time that a customer spends waiting at an airport check-in counter is a random variable with mean 8.3 minutes and standard deviation 1.4 minutes. Suppose that a random sample of n equals 47 customers is observed. Find the probability that the average time waiting in line for these customers is

a) less than 8 minutes

b) between 8 and 9 minutes

c) less than 7.5 minutes

Answer:

a) 0.0708

b) 0.9291

c) 0.0000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

n = 47

u = 8.3 mins

s.d = 1.4 mins

a) Less than 8 minutes:

P(X

P(X' < 8) = P(Z< - 1.47)

Using the normal distribution table:

NORMSDIST(-1.47)

= 0.0708

b) between 8 and 9 minutes:

P(8< X' <9) =[\frac{8-8.3}{1.4/ \sqrt{47}}< \frac{X'-u}{s.d/ \sqrt{n}} < \frac{9-8.3}{1.4/ \sqrt{47}}]

= P(-1.47 <Z< 6.366)

= P( Z< 6.366) - P(Z< -1.47)

Using normal distribution table,

NORMSDIST(6.366)-NORMSDIST(-1.47)

0.9999 - 0.0708

= 0.9291

c) Less than 7.5 minutes:

P(X'<7.5) = P [Z< \frac{7.5-8.3}{1.4/ \sqrt{47}}]

P(X' < 7.5) = P(Z< -3.92)

NORMSDIST (-3.92)

= 0.0000
