The <em><u>correct answer </u></em>is:

B. 14

Explanation:

Let x be the number of days.  On day 1, we begin with 64 orders.  We gain 18 orders per day; this is 18x, and gives us

64+18x.

We also make 28 crates per day, which decreases the number of crates we need by 28 per day; this is -28x, and gives us

64+18x-28x

Combining like terms, we get

64-10x

For day 5, we replace x with 5:

64-10(5) = 64-50 = 14

Choose the equation of a circle with radius 6 and center (2, -3).
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:  (x-2)^2 + (y+3)^2 = 36\\\\

Work Shown:

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2\\\\(x-2)^2 + (y-(-3))^2 = 6^2\\\\(x-2)^2 + (y+3)^2 = 36\\\\

Note that (h,k) = (2,-3) is the center and r = 6 is the radius. The last line is not expanded out using the FOIL rule because its common practice to leave it in (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2\\\\ form. This form allows the reader to quickly determine the center and radius (rather than have to do a lot of algebraic steps before hand).

The graph shows a probability distribution. What is P(1.5 ≤ X ≤ 3)? Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box.
Bumek [7]
The probability from 1.5 ≤ x ≤ 3 can be calculated by dividing the Area from x=1.5 to x=3 by the total Area of the distribution. 

The given distribution is rectangular shaped, so its Area will be = Length x Width = 1 x 3 = 3 square units

From x = 1.5 to x = 3, the length is 1.5 and width is 1. So the area between these two intervals = 1.5 square units.

Thus, <span>P(1.5 ≤ X ≤ 3) = 1.5/3 = 0.5

The National Center for Educational Statistics surveyed 5400 college graduates about the lengths of time required to earn their
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the mean time required by all college graduates is between 5.36 years and 5.44 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.05 = 0.95, so z = 1.645

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.645*\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{4500}} = 0.04

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 5.4 - 0.04 = 5.36 years.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 5.4 + 0.04 = 5.44 years.

The 90% confidence interval for the mean time required by all college graduates is between 5.36 years and 5.44 years.
