It is recommended that backpackers should carry no more than 20% of their body weight on long hikes and no more than 10% of thei

r body weight on short hikes.
Part A
A hiker who weighs 160 pounds is planning a long hike. The weight of their backpack when packed with essential equipment is 15 pounds. Write an inequality to show how many pounds, p, the hiker can still add to their backpack and stay within the recommended weight.

Part B
A hiker who weighs 180 pounds is planning a day hike. The weight of their backpack when packed with essential equipment is 7.5 pounds. How much weight can the hiker still add to their backpack and stay within the recommended weight?
Place an X in the table to show whether each weight is within recommendation or not.

Please solve this for me thank you!

Answer:

620.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Equation:

\frac{4y}{1.025^4}+y-2y(1.05)^2=1500

Calculate exponents

\frac{4y}{1.103812890625}+y-2y(1.1025)=1500\\

Simplify:

3.6238025791990193084270042653997y + y - 2.205y = 1500

Add like terms

2.4188025791990193084270042653997y \approx 1500

Divide both sides by 7.012

y\approx 213.91y\approx620.14

Write the vector u as a sum of two orthogonal vectors, one of which is the vector projection of u onto v
blagie [28]
U = ( -8 , -8)
v = (-1 , 2 )
<span>the magnitude of vector projection of u onto v =
</span><span>dot product of u and v over the magnitude of v = (u . v )/ ll v ll
</span>
<span>ll v ll = √(-1² + 2²) = √5
</span>
u . v = ( -8 , -8) . ( -1 , 2) = -8*-1+2*-8 = -8 
∴ <span>(u . v )/ ll v ll = -8/√5</span>
∴ the vector projection of u onto v = [(u . v )/ ll v ll] * [<span>v/ ll v ll]
</span>
<span>                          = [-8/√5] * (-1,2)/√5 = ( 8/5 , -16/5 )
</span>
The other orthogonal component = u - ( 8/5 , -16/5 )
                                   = (-8 , -8 ) - <span> ( 8/5 , -16/5 ) = (-48/5 , -24/5 )
</span>
So, u <span>as a sum of two orthogonal vectors will be
</span>
u = ( 8/5 , -16/5 ) + <span>(-48/5 , -24/5 )</span>

Answer:

1. a. z test for means and t test for means.

2. C. HA : mu1 - mu2 > 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypothesis testing is used in a situation where there are more than 1 alternative available. The t test is conducted in the mean which determines the t value and then this value is compared with p value to identify the situation whether to accept or reject the null hypothesis. The alternative hypothesis in this situation is is represented by mu.
