There are 365 days in a year and it off by one minute a day. So it is about 6 hours and 8 minutes because it is 365 minutes off, there 60 minutes in an hour. So 365÷60=6.083 so it's about 6 hours and 8 minutes .

You are a contractor and charge $45 for a site visit plus an additional $24 per hour for each hour you spend working at the site
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Equation: 810= (90 + 24y)

y = 30 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Site visit = $45 per site

cost per hour worked = $24

for <u>each </u>work site, the total amount of money earned

= site visit fee + cost for working

But the question mentions TWO sites, hence there will be two site visits. Therefore for TWO sites, we have to account for TWO site visit fee.

Therefore for TWO sites, the total amount of money earned

= site 1 visit fee + site 2 visit fee + cost for working

= (2 x site visit fee) +  cost for working  ------ Equation 1

We are further given that we worked y hours at the hourly work rate of $24 per hour.

Hence the cost for working

= y hours x hourly rate

= y   x   $24

= $24y   (substituting this into equation 1 above)

for TWO sites, the total amount of money earned

= (2 x site visit fee) +  cost for working

= (2 x $45) +  $24y

= $90 + $24y

= $(90 + 24y)

We are also given that we have to earn $810 for two sites, hence

810 = 90 + 24y    

810 - 90 = 24y

24y = 720

y = 720/24

y = 30 hours

A 2012 Gallup poll surveyed Americans about their employment status and whether or not they have diabetes. The survey results in
posledela

A) See picture for the table.

To make the table, multiply 47774 by 1.5% to get total that have diabetes and multiply 5855 by 2.5% to get total unemployed that have it, then using subtraction fill in the other squares of the table.

B)

Hypothesis:

H0: No association between employment and diabetes.

H1: Association between the two

Using a graphing calculator or Excel, run a chi-test.

Chi squared equals 31.844 with 1 degrees of freedom.

 The two-tailed P value is less than 0.0001

With this information we can reject the null hypothesis and conclude there is an association between diabetes and employment.

C)

Although there is a statistical significance, there really is no practical significance between an incidence rate of 1.5 or 2.5%

Alejandra was working on an animal report for school. She worked on it for 4 hours in a week. How many hours did she work on the
Mandarinka [93]

Answer: 0.57 hours each day or 34.28 minutes each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that:

-Alejandra worked on the animal report for school for 4 hours in a week.

- A week has seven days.

2. Therefore, to calculate the number of hours she worked on the project each day (which you can call x), you can divide the number of hours  worked on in a week by 7 days.

3. Therefore, you obtain the following result:

x=\frac{4hours}{7day}\\x=0.57\ hours/day

Multiply the result by 60 to obtain the time in minutes, then:

x=34.28\ minutes
