The fractions 2/18 and 1/9 are equivalent because the prior reduces to the latter. The first answer is correct, as instead of the four occurrences of the number two, Juan used the number two. The correct fraction should have been 4/18. The number of occurrences over the number of times the dice was rolled, not 2/18, the quantity over the number of rolls.
Hope this simplifies it,

Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y = -2x + 6 that goes through (2, 10).

neonofarm [45]

If the line is perpendicular, then its slope is the reciprocal of the given line's slope. This new line's slope is 1/2. We plug it into slope-intercept form

y = 1/2x + b

Now plug in the given point of (2, 10) and solve for b.

10 = 1/2(2) + b
10 = 1 + b
9 = b

So your equation is y = 1/2x + 9

Which of these is closest to the time in years that it will take an investment to triple when it is invested in an account that

kkurt [141]

Answer:

20.4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The nper formula in excel comes handy in this scenario:

=nper(rate,pmt,-pv,fv)

Rate is the monthly rate of 5.4%/12

Assuming actual investment is $5,000 which is pv

The triple amount would be $5,000*3=$15,000 which is future value fv.

pmt is the regular cash flow the investment which is zero

=nper(5.4%/12,0,-5000,15000)= 244.68 months

Yearly it can be expressed as = 244.68/12 =20.39 years

When rounded to one decimal place it becomes 20.4 years

Answer: The p-value is 0.154.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

We claim that

Null hypothesis :

$H_0:\mu=20$

Alternate hypothesis :

$H_1:\mu$

Population mean = 20 hours

Sample mean = 18.5 hours

Sample standard deviation = 4.3 hours

Sample size n = 35

So, test statistic would be

$z=\dfrac{\bar{X}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}\\\\z=\dfrac{18.5-20}{\dfrac{4.3}{\sqrt{35}}}\\\\z=\dfrac{-1.5}{0.726}\\\\z=-2.066$

So, the p value would be 0.154.

Hence, the p-value is 0.154.
