So there’s 2 steps to this. First we subtract what was added on both sides. 10-4 : 13-4 and we get 6:9. This ratio is true, but is not in simplest form, since both numbers are divisible by 3. So after dividing both sides by 3, the answer in simplest form will be 2:3. The correct answer is 2:3

Tom has a large photo he wants to shrink to wallet-sized. It's width is 20 centimeters and it's len is 30 centimeters. If he wan

We can use ratios, in other words, if one part of the photo is changed x times, how many times does the other part change?

We can set up the proportion as :
width 1 : length 1 = width 2 : length 2

20 : 30 = 5 : x

We do inverse multiplication, or multiply the outer with outer and inner with inner (W1 * L2 and L1 * W2)

20*x = 30*5
20x = 150
Divide all by 10
2x = 15
Divide all by 2 to isolate x
x = 15/2
x = 7.5cm

Suppose you are the manager of Speedy Oil Change which claims that it will change the oil in​ customers’ cars in less than 30 mi
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:

<em>H</em>₀: The Speedy Oil Change will change the oil in​ customers’ cars in more than 30 minutes on average, i.e. <em>μ</em> > 30.

<em>H</em>ₐ: The Speedy Oil Change will change the oil in​ customers’ cars in less than 30 minutes on average, i.e. <em>μ</em> ≤ 30.

(2)

Use Excel to compute the sample mean and standard deviation as follows:

\bar x=\text{AVERAGE(array)}=24.917\\\\s=\text{STDEV.S(array)}=8.683

Compute the test statistic as follows:

t=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\frac{24.917-30}{8.683/\sqrt{36}}=-3.51

The degrees of freedom is:

df = n - 1

   = 36 - 1

   = 35

Compute the p-value as follows:

p-value=P(t_{35}

(3)

The <em>p</em>-value = 0.0006 is very small.

The null hypothesis will be rejected at any of the commonly used significance level.

(4)

There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the Speedy Oil Change will change the oil in​ customers’ cars in less than 30 minutes on average.

What is the surface area of this?
olchik [2.2K]
Find the area of two sides (Length*Height)*2 sides.
Find the area of adjacent sides (Width*Height)*2 sides.
Find the area of ends (Length*Width)*2 ends.
Add the three areas together to find the surface area.
Example: The surface area of a rectangular prism 5 cm long, 3 cm. Hope this helps?!
