Answer:

0.25 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

You set up an equation with the given information:

4x+2(2.5)+2(3)=2x+1(2.5)+3(3)
Multiply: 4x+5+6=2x+2.5+9
Add: 4x+11=2x+11.5
Subtract: 4x=2x+0.5
Subract: 2x=0.5
Divide: x=0.25

Now check your work:

4(0.25)+2(2.5)+2(3)=2(0.25)+1(2.5)+3(3)
Multiply: 1+5+6=0.5+2.5+9
Add: 12=12

Eli was using a recipe for a large smoothie that required three and three–thirds bananas. Instead of making one smoothie, Eli de

notka56 [123]

Answer:

three small smoothies require one and one-third bananas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the three small smoothies are equal, and their sum equals the one large smoothie;

Number of bananas required for one large smoothie = three and three-third

three-thirds mean that out of three parts, three parts were selected. Therefore, three-thirds is the same thing as a whole or 1

∴ three and three-third $= 3 + \frac{3}{3} = 3 + 1 = 4$

Therefore, the one large smoothie required 4 bananas.

Large smoothie = 4 bananas

three small smoothies $= \frac{4}{3} = 1 \frac{1}{3}$

Hence, three small smoothies require one and one-third bananas.

A group of 121 Internet users 50-65 years of age were randomly chosen and asked to report the weekly number of hours they spend

Luda [366]

Answer: We support the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The purpose of the study was to determine whether the mean weekly number of hours that Internet users in that age group spend online differs from the mean for Internet users in general which is 12.50 hours.

The set of hypothesis for the given claim :-

$H_0:\mu=12.50\\\\ H_a:\mu\neq12.50$

A 95% confidence interval for the mean weekly number of hours that Internet users in that age group spend online was calculated to be (11.439 , 12.577).

Since 12.50 contained in the 95% confidence interval (11.439 , 12.577).

Therefore, we support the null hypothesis.

So the final conclusion will be, we have evidence to support the claim that Internet users in that age group spend online differs from the mean for Internet users in general which is 12.50 hours.
