Answer:

Tomatoes = 39.5

Squash = 55.5

Step-by-step explanation:

T (tomatoes) = S - 16

S + T = 95

we plug it in now

S + (S - 16) = 95

2s = 95 + 16

2s = 111

s = 55.5??

hm. Let's go with it

T = 55.5 - 16

T = 39.5

39.5 + 55.5 = 95

I...guess?

Heather, Deon, and Ali served a total of 106 orders. Deon served 4 times as many as Ali. Heather served 10 more orders then Ali.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Ali served 16 orders, Deon served 64 orders, Heather served 26 orders.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let order served by

Heather be h

Deon be d

Ali be a

We can write 3 equations from the word problem:

h + d + a = 106

d = 4a

h = 10 + a

We put 2nd and 3rd equation in first and solve for a:

h + d + a = 106

10 + a + 4a + a = 106

6a = 96

a = 16

Now,

d = 4a = 4(16) = 64

and

h = 10 + a = 10 + 16 = 26

Ali served 16 orders, Deon served 64 orders, Heather served 26 orders.

From 1995 - 2008 in the US 648 people were struck by lightening. 531 of them were men. You want to see if this observation diffe

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Because z is higher than any given value in the chart we come to the conclusion To reject null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample proportion = p= 531/648 = 0.8194

This is the proportion of men that were hit by lightening

Null hypothesis: H0: p = 0.5

Alternate hypothesis: H1: p ≠ 0.5

Test statistics z = 0.8194-0.5/(√0.5x0.5/648)

= 0.8194-0.5/√0.0003858

= 0.3194/0.019642

= 16.26

Since the z > 1.96 (at 5% significance) we reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore in conclusion we say z is higher than given values in the chart so we reject null hypothesis.
