Answer:

One avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where t is the number of tomatoes and a is the number of avocados:

4t + 8a = 10

6t + 14a = 17

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by -2:

12t + 24a = 30

-12t - 28a = -34

Add them together and solve for a:

-4a = -4

a = 1

Plug in 1 as a into one of the equations and solve for t:

4t + 8a = 10

4t + 8(1) = 10

4t + 8 = 10

4t = 2

t = 0.5

So, one avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50

A triangle has ∠A, ∠B, and ∠C.<br> ∠B is 20° more than ∠A.<br> ∠C is double ∠B.<br> How big is ∠A?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

30°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180

∠B = ∠A + 20

∠C = 2 * ∠B

<A + (∠A + 20) + (2 * ∠B) = 180

<A + (∠A + 20) + (2 * (∠A + 20)) = 180

<A + (∠A + 20) + 2∠A + 40 = 180

4∠A + 60 = 180

4∠A = 120

∠A = 30

Olin [163]

Answer:

Part A: Data summary is given in the table

Part B: out of the total 100 students, 15 students do not like either tennis or track

\frac{15}{100}  = 0.15

0.15 × \frac{100}{100} = 15%

Part C:

Total no. of students that dislike track = 60

Total no. of students that dislike tennis = 40

A researcher at the University of Washington medical school believes that energy drink consumption may increase heart rate. Supp
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

mean μ = 70

sample size = 25

sample mean = 73

standard deviation = 7

level of significance = 0.10

The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as follows:

\mathtt{H_o : \mu = 70} \\ \\  \mathtt{H_1 : \mu > 70 }

The z score for this statistics can be calculated by using the formula:

z = \dfrac{X- \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \dfrac{73- 70}{\dfrac{7}{\sqrt{25}}}

z = \dfrac{3}{\dfrac{7}{5}}

z = \dfrac{3 \times 5}{{7}{}}

z = 2.143

At level of significance of 0.10

degree of freedom = n -1

degree of freedom = 25 - 1

degree of freedom = 24

The p - value from the z score at   level of significance of 0.10 and degree of freedom of 24 is:

P - value = 1 - (Z < 2.143)

P - value =  1 - 0.9839

P - value =  0.0161

Decision Rule: since P value is lesser than the level of significance, we reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion: We conclude that energy drink consumption increases heart rate.
