Answer:

9 cans of soup and the 4 frozen dinners were purchased

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of cans of soup purchased.

Let y represent the number of frozen dinners purchased.

Lincoln purchased a total of 13 cans of soup and frozen dinners. This means that

x + y = 13

Each can of soup has 250 mg of sodium and each frozen dinner has 550 mg of sodium. The 13 cans of soup and frozen dinners which he purchased collectively contain 4450 mg of sodium. This means that

250x + 550y = 4450 - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 13 - y into equation 1, it becomes

250(13 - y) + 550y = 4450

3250 - 250y + 550y = 4450

- 250y + 550y = 4450 - 3250

300y = 1200

y = 1200/300

y = 4

Substituting y = 4 into x = 13 - y, it becomes

x = 13 - 4 = 9

mezya [45]

The length of b and angle B and C are 3cm, 45 degrees and 79 degrees respectively.

<h3>How to determine the parameters</h3>

To determine the angles and length of sides, we use the sine rule

The sine rule is thus:

$\frac{sin A}{a} = \frac{sin B}{b} = \frac{sin C}{c}$

Given;

a = 2. 5cm

c = 3. 6cm

∠A = 43°

Let's find angle C

$\frac{sin 43}{2. 5} = \frac{sin C}{3. 6}$

cross multiply

0. 682 × 3. 6 = sin C × 2. 5

sin C = 2. 4552/ 2. 5

C = $sin^-^1(0. 982)$

C = 79°

To find length of b

$b= \sqrt{c^2 - a^2}$

substitute the values

$b = \sqrt{3.6^2 - 2. 5^2}$

$b = \sqrt{6. 71}$

b = 2. 59 cm

b = 3cm

To find angle B, we have

$\frac{sin 43}{2. 5} = \frac{sin B}{2. 59}$

cross multiply

0. 682 × 2. 59= sin B × 2. 5

sin B = 0. 7065

$B = sin^-^1(0. 7065)$

B = 45°

Hence, the length of b and angle B and C are 3cm, 45 degrees and 79 degrees respectively.

Solve the equation in the complex number system.

tatiyna

To get rid of $x^{3}$ , you have to take the third root of both sides:
$\sqrt[3]{x^{3}} = \sqrt[3]{1}$
But that won't help you with understanding the problem. It is better to write $x^{3}-1$ as a product of 2 polynomials:
$x^{3}-1 = (x-1)\cdot (x^{2} +x +1)$
From this we know, that $x-1 = 0 => x = 1$ is the solution. Another solutions (complex roots) are the roots of quadratic equation.

The U.S. Department of Transportation provides the number of miles that residents of the75 largest metropolitan areas travel per

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

a. The point estimate of the difference between the mean number of miles that Buffalo residents travel per day and the mean number of miles that Boston residentstravel per day is 88

b. The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (0.58171,7.21829)

Step-by-step explanation:

a. According to the given data we have the following:

Buffalo residents mean=22.5

Standard deviation=8.4

n=50

Boston residents mean=18.6

Standard deviation=7.4

n=40

Hence, the point estimate is the difference of the means=22.5-18.6=3.9

The standard error=√((s1∧2/n1)+((s2∧2/n2))=√((8.4∧2/50)+(7.4∧2/40))=1.67

Therefore, the difference of miles=n1+n2-2=50+40-2=88

The point estimate of the difference between the mean number of miles that Buffalo residents travel per day and the mean number of miles that Boston residentstravel per day is 88.

b. The critical value of t at 95% confidence level and DoF=88 is 1.987

The interval:(x1-x2)+ (critical value* std error)

=3.9-(1.987*1.67),3.9+(1.987*1.67)

Difference between mean=(0.58171,7.21829)

The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (0.58171,7.21829)
