Answer:

70kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, because nothing else changed about the treasure chest apart from the amount of treasure when the mass increased, the difference in mass must be the mass of the 1/4 chest of treasure which was added.

712 - 498 = 214kg

Now that we know that 1/4 chest's worth of treasure has a mass of 214kg, we can multiply this by 2 to find the mass of 1/2 a chest of treasure (without the chest):

214 x 2 = 428 kg

We now know that since 1/2 a chest of treasure has a mass of 428kg, the difference between the mass of the chest AND treasure when it is half full must be the mass of the box:

498 (mass of chest and 1/2 chest worth of treasure) - 428 (mass of just 1/2 chest worth of treasure only) = 70kg (mass of chest only)

We can check this by using the other given mass as well. 214 x 3 = 642kg

This means 3/4 of a chest's worth of treasure only, has a mass of 642kg, meaning the extra mass in the 712kg must be the mass of the chest:

712 - 642 = 70kg

The chest has a mass of 70kg.

Hope this helped!

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.

The regular price rounded to the nearest cent
Daniel [21]

Answer:

$189.43

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the original price, write a proportion. In your proportion, write one ration that has sale price over original price. The other ratio should be written with the corresponding percent values. Since the sale price is 65% off then you paid 35% of the regular the price. The proportion should be:

\frac{66.30}{x}= \frac{35}{100}

To solve cross multiply numerator and denominator of each fraction.

66.30(100) = x(35)

6630 = 35x

189.43 = x

This means the regular price is $189.43.
