X + y = 152, 8.5x + 12y = 1,656 How many hats were sold?

Mathematics

Elodia [21]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 48 and y = 104

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are:

x+y = 152\\8.5x+12y=1656

From equation 1:

x = 152-y

Putting the value of y in equation 2

8.5(152-y)+12y = 1656\\1292-8.5y+12y = 1656\\3.5y+1292 = 1656\\3.5y = 1656-1292\\3.5y = 364\\\frac{3.5y}{3.5} = \frac{364}{3.5}\\y = 104

Now we have to put the value of y in one of the equation to find the value of x

Putting y = 104 in the first equation

x+y = 152\\x+ 104 = 152\\x = 152-104\\x = 48

Hence,

The solution of the system of equations is x = 48 and y = 104

The value of variable which was assumed for number of hats, is the total number of hats.

Either use technology to find the P-value or use
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

df=n-1=21-1=20  

Since is a one side left tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(t_{(20)}  

And we can use the following excel code to find it: "=T.DIST(-0.024,20,TRUE)"

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X represent the mean

s represent the sample standard deviation

n=21 sample size  

\mu_o =140 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t=-0.024 would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean for the widths of tornadoes is lower than 140 yd, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 140  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 140  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic

The statistic is given by: t = -0.024

P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

df=n-1=21-1=20  

Since is a one side left tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(t_{(20)}  

And we can use the following excel code to find it: "=T.DIST(-0.024,20,TRUE)"

Based on the p value obtained we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis at any significance level selected \alpah=0.01,0.05,0.1

The percentage profit earned by selling a watch for Nu 1920 is equal to the percent loss incurred by selling the same watch for
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

2,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the price that should be sold for making 25% profit is shown below:

Let cost price be x

Now the equation would be

(1,920 - x) ÷ x × 100 = (x - 1,280) ÷ x × 100

1,920 - x = x - 1,280

2x = 3,200

x = 1,600

Now the sale price would be

= 1,600 × 1.25

= 2,000
