rusak2 [61]

The answer is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Jamie and Stella are saving money to sign up for a school trip to Washington, D.C. In order to sign up for the trip, they must pay $600 upfront. Jamie earns his money by washing cars for $25 each. Stella earns her money by making pecan pies for $15 each. Jamie earns more money than Stella does because Stella only has enough supplies to make 40 pies. let x represent the number of cars Jamie washes. Let y represent the number of pies Stella makes.

Part 1: Write a constraint (an inequality) to represent how much money Jamie needs for his trip.

Part 2: Write a constraint (an inequality) to represent how much money Stella needs for her trip.

Part 3: Write a constraint (an inequality) to represent the limitations of Stella's supplies.

Part 4: Can Stella afford to sign up for the trip with the money she earns? Explain your answer and show any work that might support your answer.

Answer:

Part 1: 25x\geq 600

Part 2: 15y\geq 600

Part 3: y\leq 40

Part 4: Yes, she makes exactly 600 dollars by making 40 pies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total money needed for the trip is 600 dollars.

Money earnt by Jamie for washing one car is $25.

Money earnt by Stella for making one pie is $15.

Let x represent the number of cars Jamie washes. Let y represent the number of pies Stella makes.

Part 1:

Since the cost for washing one car is $25

Therefore, the cost of washing x cars is 25x.

Now, in order to sign up for the trip, money obtained from car washing must be greater than or equal to $600.

Therefore, 25x\geq 600

Part 2:

Since the cost for making one pie is $15

Therefore, the cost of making y pies is 15y.

Now, in order to sign up for the trip, money obtained from pie making must be greater than or equal to $600.

Therefore, 15y\geq 600

Part 3:

As per the question, the maximum number of pies that Stella can make is 40. So, the value of y can't exceed 40 and must be less than or equal to 40. Therefore,

y\leq 40

Part 4:

Now, in order to sign up for the trip, Stella's total earning must be at least $600. So, 15y=600 is the minimum condition for signing up for the trip. Now, let us solve the above equation for y. This gives,

15y=600\\y=\frac{600}{15}=40

Therefore, minimum number of pies required for signing up for the trip is 40 and luckily that's the maximum supply Stella has for pies. Therefore, she can sign up for the trip by making all the 40 pies and earning a total of 600 dollars.

Let the abbreviation PSLT stand for the percent of the gross family income that goes into paying state and local taxes. Suppose
gavmur [86]

Answer:

Number of families that should be surveyed if one wants to be 90% sure of being able to estimate the true mean PSLT within 0.5 is at least 43.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that one wants to estimate the mean PSLT for the population of all families in New York City with gross incomes in the range $35.000 to $40.000.

If sigma equals 2.0, we have to find that how many families should be surveyed if one wants to be 90% sure of being able to estimate the true mean PSLT within 0.5.

Here, we will use the concept of Margin of error as the statement "true mean PSLT within 0.5" represents the margin of error we want.

<u></u>

<u>SO, Margin of error formula is given by;</u>

       Margin of error =  Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_ ) \times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

where, \alpha = significance level = 10%

            \sigma = standard deviation = 2.0

            n = number of families

Now, in the z table the critical value of x at 5% ( \frac{0.10}{2} = 0.05 ) level of significance is 1.645.

SO,        Margin of error =  Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_ ) \times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

                          0.5   =  1.645 \times \frac{2}{\sqrt{n} }

                         \sqrt{n} =\frac{2\times 1.645 }{0.5}

                         \sqrt{n} =6.58

                           n  =  6.58^{2}

                               = 43.3 ≈ 43

Therefore, number of families that should be surveyed if one wants to be 90% sure of being able to estimate the true mean PSLT within 0.5 is at least 43.

4: A school has 314 boys &amp; 310 girls. If they are to be grouped into equal classes of 26 each , how many classes will there
kherson [118]

4: A school has 314 boys & 310 girls. If they are to be grouped into equal classes of 26 each , how many classes will there be?

314 boys + 310 girls = 624

If they are grouped into classes of 26 students each, how many class will there be?

130 students = 5 classes

Therefore

260 students = 10 classes

260 x 2 = 520 = 20 classes

26 x 24 = 624

Number of classes = 24

Question 5).

Jim worked 48 weeks last year. Each week he worked 38 hours. If he worked an additional 240 hours of overtime, how many hours did he work in all?

Solution:

48 weeks

24hrs × 7 = 168hrs

168 x 48 = 8,064

Additional 240hrs

= 168hrs = 7 days (a week)

240hrs - 168 = 72 (3days)

168 + 72

= 240hrs + 8, 064

= 8, 304 hrs
