Answer:

Easy! Put away your slide ruler! Just take one painter. He takes one hour to paint 1/3 of a wall.. Boy these guys must be in the union for they are really slow.. so lets assume one painter painted all 8 walls. That is a lot of cigarette breaks, it would take him 24 hours to paint all 8 walls…. But he has 3 other buddies… yea! so 4 into 24 = 6 Hours!

For what value(s) of k is the linear system consistent? (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$6x_1-9x_2=8$

$9x_1+kx_2=-1$

The given system is $AX=B$ can be represented by

$\begin{bmatrix}6 &-9 \\ 9 & k\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x_1\\ x_2\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}8\\ -1\end{bmatrix}$

The given system is consistent when determinant of A is not equal to zero

$|A|$

$|A|=6k-(-81)=6k+81$

$k\neq \frac{-27}{2}$

i.e. system is consistent for all value of k except $k=\frac{-27}{2}$

$R-\frac{-27}{2}$

A company claims that the mean weight per apple they ship is 120 grams with a standard deviation of 12 grams. Data generated fro

Veronika [31]

Answer:

There is no sufficient evidence to reject the company's claim at the significance level of 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $\mu$ be the true mean weight per apple the company ship. We want to test the next hypothesis

$H_{0}:\mu=120$ vs $H_{1}:\mu\neq 120$ (two-tailed test).

Because we have a large sample of size n = 49 apples randomly selected from a shipment, the test statistic is given by

$Z=\frac{\bar{X}-120}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}$ which is normally distributed. The observed value is

$z_{0}=\frac{122.5-120}{12/\sqrt{49}}=1.4583$ . The rejection region for $\alpha = 0.05$ is given by RR = {z| z < -1.96 or z > 1.96} where the area below -1.96 and under the standard normal density is 0.025; and the area above 1.96 and under the standard normal density is 0.025 as well. Because the observed value 1.4583 does not fall inside the rejection region RR, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
