A wildlife refuge in South America has howler monkeys and spider monkeys. A biologist working there randomly selected eight adul

ts of each type of monkey, weighted them, and recorded their weights in pounds. Howler monkey: {15,16,17,17,17,17,18,19} spider monkey: {12,13,13,14,14,14,16,16} (A) calculate the mean and Mad for each type of monkey. (B) calculate the means -to-MAD ration for the two types of monkeys. (C) what inference can be made about the weight of both types of monkeys? Explain.

Answer:

Given:

howler monkey: {15, 16, 17, 17, 17, 17, 18, 19}

spider monkey: {12, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 16, 16}

The mean of the first set (howler monkey) = (15 + 16 + 17 + 17 + 17 +17 + 18 + 19)/ 8 

The sum of all weights is divided by the number of monkeys weighed (n = 8)

mean = 17

Do the same for the second set (spider monkey) = 12+ 13 + 13+ 14 + 14+ 14 +14 +16 + 16 / 8

mean = 15.75

The ratio of the two is 17:15.75 or 1.08 is to 1.

julsineya [31]

Answer:

1/11

Step-by-step explanation:

(6, 4) and (-5, 3)

Slope:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(3-4)/(-5-6)

m= (-1)/(-11)

m = 1/11

A group spends $277.50 to rent a total of 15 tubes. How many of each type of tube does the group rent?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

The amount spent on each tube is $18.5

The total amount spent to rent 15 tubes by the group is $277.50.

Since they did not specify in the question the types of tubes they rented, we cannot determine each types of tubes that the group rented but we can determine the amount spent on each tube provided that they are all the same types.

∴

if 15 tubes = $277.50

1 tube = $x

By cross multiplying:

\mathbf {\$(x) = \dfrac{ \$277.50 \times 1 \ tube }{15 \ tube}}

\mathbf {(x) = \$18.5}

Therefore, we can conclude that the amount spent on each tube is $18.5

Sara makes and sells bracelets. She bought material for $28.50 and used it all to make 15 bracelets. Sara used the equation to d
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Sara should sell each bracelet at <em>$8.50</em> to make a profit of $99.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following:

Total cost = $28.50

Total bracelets to be made = 15

Total profit to be made = $99

Let x be the price at which Sara sells each bracelet to make a profit of $99.

\text{Total sales done = Number of bracelets sold }\times \text{ Sales price of each bracelet}\\

\Rightarrow 15 \times x    ...... (1)

Also,

\text{Total sales price = Total Cost}+ \text{Total Profit} \\

\Rightarrow \$28.50 + \$99 ....... (2)

Equating (1) and (2):

\Rightarrow  28.50 + 99 = 15x\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{127.5}{15}\\\Rightarrow x = $8.50

Sara should <em>sell each bracelet at $8.50</em> to make a profit of $99.
