Answer:

f(x) = .05x; $5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = .05x

f(110) = .05(110) = $5.50

Find the area, in square feet, of a triangle whose base is 42⁄3 feet and whose altitude is 84⁄7 feet. A. 135⁄21 B. 20 C. 40 D. 2

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Option B. $20\ ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a triangle is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

we have

$b=4\frac{2}{3}\ ft$

$h=8\frac{4}{7}\ ft$

Convert mixed numbers to an improper fractions

$b=4\frac{2}{3}\ ft=\frac{4*3+2}{3}=\frac{14}{3}\ ft$

$h=8\frac{4}{7}\ ft=\frac{8*7+4}{7}=\frac{60}{7}\ ft$

substitute the values

$A=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{14}{3})(\frac{60}{7})\\ \\A=\frac{14*60}{2*3*7}\\ \\A=\frac{840}{42} \\ \\A=20\ ft^{2}$

<h2><u>Answer with explanation</u>:</h2>

Let $\mu$ be the population mean.

As per given , we have

$H_0:\mu \leq4\\\\ H_a: \mu >4$

Since the alternative hypothesis is right-tailed , so the test is a right-tailed test.

Also, population standard deviation is given $\sigma=1$ , so we perform one-tailed z-test.

Test statistic : $z=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

, where $\mu$ = Population mean

$\sigma$ = Population standard deviation

n= sample size

$\overline{x}$ = Sample mean

For n= 18 , $\overline{x}=4.50$ , $\sigma=1$ , $\mu =4$ , we have

$z=\dfrac{4.5-4}{\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{18}}}\approx2.12$

P-value (for right tailed test): P(z>2.12) = 1-P(z≤ 2.12) [∵ P(Z>z)=1-P(Z≤z)]\

=1- 0.0340=0.9660

Decision : Since P-value(0.9660) > Significance level (0.01), it means we are failed to reject the null hypothesis.

[We reject null hypothesis if p-value is larger than the significance level . ]

Conclusion : We do not have sufficient evidence to show that the goal is not being met at α = .01 .

5+7k>=-30 and -4k +4>20

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{-5\leq k$

Step-by-step explanation:

$5+7k\geq-30\ \wedge\ -4k+4>20\\\\5+7k\geq-30\qquad\text{subtract 5 from both sides}\\7k\geq-35\qquad\text{divide both sides by 7}\\\boxed{k\geq-5}\\\\-4k+4>20\qquad\text{subtract 4 from both sides}\\-4k>16\qquad\text{change the signs}\\4k$
