Answer:

The correct answer is k=1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression " r varies directly as p", we need to find an equation that describes the relationship between both variables. First, we have that r varies as p varies, so r is the dependent variable and p is the independent variable. So

r = k x p ⇒ replacing with the given values (r =3 when p =15)

3 = k x 15 ⇒ 3/15 = k ⇒ 1/5 = k.

Then the constant of proportionality is k = 1/5.

A water-efficient washer costs $400 more than a regular washer and saves 100 l of water for each load. if water costs $5 per 1,0

Kruka [31]

8 years because its uses 100l per load and you wash 100 per year you multiply and get 10,000 which divided by 1,00 its 10 so 10 x 5 = 50 so you save 50 per year and its 400 dollars more so 50 x 8 years will be 400

A random sample of the amounts for 22 purchases was taken. The mean was $42.97, the standard deviation was $22.82, and the m

Illusion [34]

Answer: a) 84 and b ) 2084

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sample standard deviation : s= $22.82

(Population standard deviation is unknown ) , so we use t-test.

Critical value or the 95% confidence intervals : $t_{n-1}*=2.0$

Formula to find the sample size :

$n=(\dfrac{t^*\cdot s}{E})^2$

a) E = 5

$n=(\dfrac{(2)\cdot 22.82}{5})^2$

$n=(9.128)^2=83.320384\approx84$

i.e. Required sample size : n= 84

b) E = 1

$n=(\dfrac{(2)\cdot 22.82}{1})^2$

$n=(45.64)^2=2083.0096\approx2084$

i.e. Required sample size : n= 2084

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a number to be divisible by 4 you just need to worry about the 10s and 1s place. You also want to know that the 1s cylce every 20, or in other words:

4 8 12 16 20

24 28 32 36 40 and so on. So the only numbers that x can be there are 1, 3, 5, 7, 9. Does that make sense? and can you manage the rest?
