Answer:

300 minutes

2:00 p.m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following:

Time taken to mark a script :

Mrs Kanja = 5mins

Miss Kanene = 4mins

Mrs Nyaga = 12 mins

Number of scripts = 160

Start time = 9:00 a.m

Rate at which each of them mark:

Mrs Kanja = t / 5

Miss Kanene = t/4

Mrs Nyaga = t/12

Combined rate :

t/5 + t/4 + t/12 = 160

(12t + 15t + 5t) / 60 = 160

32t / 60 = 160

32t = 160 * 60

32t = 9600

t = 9600 / 32

t = 300 minutes

300 minutes = 300/60 = 5hrs

9:00 a.m + 5 hours = 2:00 p.m

Can someone help me with this?
algol13

Answer: x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that sum of a triangle is 180 degrees

one angle is 90 degree

the sum will be 90+(2x+1)+(5x+5)=180

substract 90 from both sides

2x+1+5x+5=180-90

7x+6=90

7x=90-6

divide by 7

x=12

Ella and kate play basketball last year ella scored 16 points per game kates total points for the season were 22 less than Ellis
KatRina [158]

Alright, lets get started.

Ella and kate played basketball last year.

In each game, Ella scored 16 points.

We have not given the number of games played.

So, lets suppose there are n games played last year.

So, total points of Ella will be = number of games * each game score

total points of Ella will be = n * 16 = 16 n

Kates total points for the season are 22 less than Elli's points

Means , Kates total points = 16 n - 22

This expression is similar with expression given 16 z - 22 (which is give in question)

It means z = n , means variable z means total games played in last year. : Answer

Hope it will help :)

it is claimed that proportion in favor of proportion A is greater than 60%. A sample of size 100 found 69 in favor. what is the
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

The alternative hypothesis is H_1: p > 0.6.

The critical value is Z_c = 1.645

Step-by-step explanation:

It is claimed that proportion in favor of proportion A is greater than 60%.

This means that at the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of at most 60%, that is:

H_0: p \leq 0.6

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is more than 60%, that is:

H_1: p > 0.6

What is (are) the critical value?

The critical value is the value of Z with a p-value 1 subtracted by the standard significance level of 0.05, since we are testing if the mean is more than a value, so, looking at the z-table, Z_c = 1.645
