Javier works in a photo lab and needs to make a reduced copy of a photograph that is 8 inches long. The customer wants the copy

to have a length of 4.5 inches. Each time he presses the reduce button on the copier, the copy is reduced by 12%. Javier and his boss had an argument, because Javier claimed that pressing the button 5 times would be enough to fulfill the customer's request. His boss said that pressing the button 5 times would result in a length less than the desired 4.5 inches. Which of the following conclusions can be made?

The boss is correct because if you press the button 5 time knowing that if u press it one time it is going to have the photo at 7.04 inches so if you keep going by the time you get to 5 times it is going to about 4.22 so you would have had to press it 4 times which would equal 5.4 inches

Emily researched the average prices of desktop PCs worldwide since 2000. She could only find data from 2005 to 2010. She created
gregori [183]

Answer: There is a linear relationship  between the average price of PCs and the number of years that have passed since 2000.


Step-by-step explanation:

From the given graph, we can see there is a straight line , which shows that there is a linear relationship between both quantities.

As the number years increases the average price of PCs decreases.

The given equation of the line is y=-39x+998, which shows that the slope of the line is -39, i.e the rate of decrease in the average price of PCs with respect to the the number of years that have passed since 2000.

A quality-control manager for a company that produces a certain soft drink wants to determine if a 12-ounce can of a certain bra
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

We conclude that the average calorie content of a 12-ounce can is greater than 120 calories.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a quality-control manager for a company that produces a certain soft drink wants to determine if a 12-ounce can of a certain brand of soft drink contains 120 calories as the labeling indicates.

Using a random sample of 10 cans, the manager determined that the average calories per can is 124 with a standard deviation of 6 calories.

<u><em>Let </em></u>\mu<u><em> = average calorie content of a 12-ounce can.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \leq 120 calories     {means that the average calorie content of a 12-ounce can is less than or equal to 120 calories}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu > 120 calories     {means that the average calorie content of a 12-ounce can is greater than 120 calories}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>One-sample t test statistics</u> as we don't know about the population standard deviation;

                         T.S. =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ t_n_-_1

where, \bar X = sample average calories per can = 124 calories

             s = sample standard deviation = 6 calories

            n = sample of cans = 10

So, <em><u>test statistics</u></em>  =  \frac{124-120}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{10} } }  ~ t_9

                               =  2.108

The value of t test statistics is 2.108.

<em>Now, at 0.05 significance level </em><em>the t table gives critical value of 1.833 at 9 degree of freedom for right-tailed test</em><em>. Since our test statistics is more than the critical values of t as 2.108 > 1.833, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will in the rejection region due to which </em><u><em>we reject our null hypothesis</em></u><em>.</em>

Therefore, we conclude that the average calorie content of a 12-ounce can is greater than 120 calories.

Today you will need to look at the following problem and explain what Susan did incorrectly.
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

(x - 3)² + (y + 4)² = 36 ← is in standard form

with (h, k) = (3, - 4 ) = centre and r = \sqrt{36} = 6

Susan interpreted the values of h and k incorrectly by using the values - 3 and 4 instead of taking the negative of them.

She also divided 36 by 2 , thus omitting the root of 36
