Answer:

x = 6 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Total weight of the candy = x

3/20x + 1.2 lb + 3/5x + 0.3 lb = x

3/20x + 3/5x + 1.5 lb = x

3x+12x/20 + 1.5 lb = x

15/20x + 1.5 = x

1.5 = x - 15/20x

1.5 =20x -15x /20

1.5 = 5/20x

1.5 = 1/4x

x = 1.5 ÷ 1/4

= 1.5 × 4/1

= 6

x = 6 lb

2. A random sample of 30 households was selected as part of a study on electricity usage, and the number of kilowatt-hours (kWh)
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that n =30, x bar = 375 and sigma = 81

Normal distribution is assumed and population std dev is known

Hence z critical values can be used.

For 95% Z critical=1.96

Margin of error = 1.96(\frac{81}{\sqrt{30} } )=29

Confidence interval = 375±29

=(346,404)

B) 99% confidence

Margin of error = 2.59*Std error =38

Confidence interval = 375±38

=(337, 413)

C) For 90%

Margin of error = 20

Std error = 20/1.645 = 12.158

Sample size

n=(\frac{81}{12.158} )^2\\=44.38

Atleast 44 people should be sample size.

If you are given that b = 2, then just plug it in:
2(2)-4 = 4-4 = 0

So, your final answer is 0.
