Answer:

The answer is 1 13/24 hours or 1 hour, 32.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Find a common multiple of the denominators 3 and 8, which would be 24. Convert the fractions:

7/8 x 3/3 = 21/24.

2/3 x 8/8 = 16/24

Add the two numerators = 37/24 or 1 13/24.

1/24 of an hour is 2.5 minutes, so 13/24 is 32.5 minutes.

The answer is 1 13/24 hours or 1 hour, 32.5 minutes

A publishing company claims that in fall 2019, the average price of college textbooks for a single semester is $385. Suppose you

hram777 [196]

Answer:

We accept H₀ . We don´t have enough evidence to express the publisher claim is not true

Step by Step explanation:

We must evaluate if the mean of the price of college textbooks is different from the value claimed by the publisher

n < 30 then we must use t - distrbution

degree of freedom n - 1 df = 22 - 1 df = 21

As the question mentions " different " that means, a two-tail test

At 0,01 significance level α = 0,01 α/2 = 0,005

and t(c) = 2,831

Test Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis H₀ μ = μ₀

Alternative hypothesis Hₐ μ ≠ μ₀

To calculate t(s)

t(s) = ( μ - μ₀ ) /σ/√n

t(s) = ( 433,50 - 385 ) / 86,92 / √22

t(s) = 2,6171

Comparing t(c) and t(s)

t(s) < t(c)

Then t(s) is in the acceptance region we accept H₀. We don´t have enough evidence to claim that mean price differs from publisher claim

line k has a slope of -5. line j is perpendicular to line k and passes though the point (5,9) create the equation for line j

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

y = 1/5x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you should know is that the slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal. So, the slope of line j is 1/5. This is your current equation: y=1/5x + b. Plug in your coordinate to the equation, it should look like this: 9=1/5(5)+ b. 1/5 times 5 equals 1, so this is what it should look like: 9=1 + b. Subtract 1 from both sides to get 8 = b. Go back to your original equation and plug in 8 to b. This is your final equation: y = 1/5x + 8. Hope this helped!

A scale on a blueprint drawing of a house shows that 10 centimeters represents 2 meters. What number of actual meters are repres

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

3.6 meters are represented by 18 centimeters on the blueprint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A scale on a blueprint drawing of a house shows that 10 centimeters represents 2 meters.

Now, to find the actual meters represented by 18 centimeters.

Let the actual meters represented by 18 centimeters be $x.$

As, given the scale on a blueprint drawing of a house shows that 10 centimeters represents 2 meters.

So, 10 centimeters equivalent to 2 meters.

Thus, 18 centimeters equivalent to $x.$

Now, to solve by using cross multiplication method:

$\frac{10}{2}=\frac{18}{x}$

By cross multiplying we get:

$10x=36$

Dividing both sides by 10 we get:

$x=3.6\ meters.$

Therefore, 3.6 meters are represented by 18 centimeters on the blueprint.

How to draw a picture that represents 24 divided by 6

olasank [31]

Draw a cake or a pie cut into 24 pieces. Then draw 6 figures around the cake. color code each group of 4 pieces of cake and coordinate it with figure.

Ex: If 4 pieces of the cake were red, color one of the figures red so each figure gets 4 pieces of the cake.
