Answer: cost of 1 pot of ivy = $12

Cost of 1 rose bush =$ 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let rose bushes be represented as r

and pot of ivy be represented as p

such that Amy who spent 82 dollars on 7 rose bushes and 1 pot of ivy can be expressed as

7 r + p = 82----- eqn 1

Rob who spent 74 on 5 rose bushes and 2 pots of ivy can  be expressed as

5r +2 p = 74----- eqn 2

Step 2

Solving

7 r + p = 82----- eqn 1

5r +2 p = 74----- eqn 2

By elimination method Multiply eqn 1 by 5 and eqn 2 by 7

35r+ 5p= 410--- eqn 3

35r+ 14p =518--- eqn 4

Subtracting eqn 4 from eqn 3

9p = 108

p = 108/9

p=12

p = pot of ivy = $12

therefore rose bush  wll be ( from equation 1)

7r+ p= 82

7r=82-12

7r= 70 r= 70/7

r= rose bush =$ 10

The temperature in Quebec City was 5°C at 4 pm. By midnight, the temperature dropped 15 degrees.
TEA [102]

Answer:

Point A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the temperature dropped 15 degrees, and that it was initially of 5°C. So, by midnight, the temperature will be of -10°C (5-15=-10).

We also know that the distance between points is of 5°C. So, the point that we have to mark is point A, which represents -10°C.

Answer:

(29.46 mm, 29.54 mm).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 43 - 1 = 42

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 42 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975. So we have T = 2.018

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.018\frac{0.12}{\sqrt{43}} = 0.04

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 29.5 mm - 0.04mm = 29.46 mm

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 29.5 mm + 0.04mm = 29.54 mm

The 95% confidence level for the true mean width is: (29.46 mm, 29.54 mm).
