HELP ME PLZ IM CRYING predict the number of catfish kathy will catch next week if she catches 54 fish

Mathematics
1 answer:
marishachu [46]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Take a breath :) . I've got your back.

If she caught 6 carp + 8 bass + 7 catfish, she caught 6 +8 +7 fish total = 21.

7 of 21 were catfish.

If she catches 54 fish instead of 21, (and we have to assume the ratio stays the same), how many will be catfish?

Ratios are 7:21 and x:54, but we'll write them as fractions:

7/21 = x/54

Then cross multiply:

21x = (54)(7)

21x = 378

divide both sides by 21

x = 18

If she catches 54 fish total, we predict she will catch 18 catfish.

---------------------------------------------

If we go back to the original 7/21, we can reduce that to 1/3. Then ask what is 1/3 of 54? 18.

1. 2(4x - 3) - 8 = 4 + 2x<br> Can sb help slove this using PEMDAS ?
velikii [3]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) get rid of the parenthesis by distributing the 2. You will get 8x-6-8=4+2x

2) Now combine like term on each side of the equal sign. You will get 8x-14=4+2x

3) Move the 14 to the right side of the equation making it +14 and move your 2x to the left side of the equation making it -2x. You will get 8x-2x=4=+14

4) calculate each side. You will get 6x=18

5) Divide both sides. You will get x=3

If 95% and 98% confidence intervals were calculated from the same sample data in order to estimate the true cost of an appliance
damaskus [11]

Answer:

D) The z-statistics would be different.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval can be calculated using M±ME where

  • M is the sample mean
  • ME is the margin of error from the mean

An margin of error (ME) from the mean can be calculated using the formula

ME=\frac{z*s}{\sqrt{N} } where

  • z is the corresponding z-statistic in the given confidence level
  • s is the population standard deviation
  • N is the sample size

If 95% and 98% confidence intervals were calculated from the same sample data, then M, s and N are same.

\frac{s}{\sqrt{N} } is called standard error. Since s and N are same the standard errors would also be same.

But, two tailed z-statistic for 95% confidence level is ≈1.96 where for 98% it is ≈2.33

In the week that ended on January 4, there were 24 cases of flu reported in a city’s hospital. In the 5 weeks that followed, the
Fittoniya [83]

Each week, there are 24+12x more new instances recorded than there was the previous week which is increasing exponentially.

There were 24 cases of flu reported in a city's hospital on January 4.

In the next 5 weeks, the number of new cases reported each week had grown exponentially.

Let "A" represent the number of flu cases at time "t." Any population "A" grows exponentially over time at a rate of "t." The beginning population directly affects the rate of population change.

dA/dt = k( T - 24 )

T- 24 = c × e^{kt}     [Differentiate with 't']

T = 24 + c × e^{kt}

After 1 week T = 36 and t = 1

36 - 24 = c × 1

c = 12

T = 24 + 12x.

Therefore, 24 + 12x new instances have been reported each week, increasing exponentially.

What is five x plus negative three equals fifteen
bearhunter [10]
You write the equation like this:
5x + (-3) = 15

But if you want to solve it then you do it like this:
5x + (-3) = 15
5x - 3 = 15
5x = 18
x = 18/5
