The price of an item has risen to $221 today. Yesterday it was $130. Find the percentage increase.

Answer: Choice B. 54degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 1 4 5 8 are equal and angles 2 3 6 7 are also equal. These two sets of angles of supplementary(you‘d get 180 by adding them).

so

13x+9=180-(5x+9)

by simplifying the equation youll get

18x+18=180

x=9

so angle 7(and therefore angle 6) equals

5*9+9=54

An appliance manufacturer claims to have developed a compact microwave oven that consumes a mean of no more than 250 W. From pre

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

We conclude that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an appliance manufacturer claims to have developed a compact microwave oven that consumes a mean of no more than 250 W with a population standard deviation of 15 W.

They take a sample of 20 microwave ovens and find that they consume a mean of 257.3 W.

Let $\mu$ = mean power consumption for microwave ovens.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu$ $\leq$ 250 W {means that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of no more than 250 W}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu$ > 250 W {means that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z test statistics as we know about the population standard deviation;

T.S. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean power consumption for ovens = 257.3 W

σ = population standard deviation = 15 W

n = sample of microwave ovens = 20

So, the test statistics = $\frac{257.3-250}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{20} } }$

= 2.176

The value of z test statistics is 2.176.

Now, at 0.05 significance level the z table gives critical value of 1.645 for right-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of t as 2.176 > 1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W.

1. What does it mean for a number to have a variable at the end of it? (i.e 1.6x)

miskamm [114]

Answer:

1. 1.6x has a variable which means an unknown number

2. 5 more than 0.10 times a number

Step-by-step explanation:

A variable is an unknown number represented by a letter. It provides a way to write a relationship in the real world without knowing all the values involved, 1.6x means 1.6 times an unknown number mathematically. A real world example would be a percent growth of 60% on an unknown price - 1.6x.

5 + 0.10x means 5 more than 0.10 times an unknown number. A real world example here would be "10% off a sale plus $5 coupon". We don't know the price of the item but we do know it is 10% off and we get $5 off. Once we know the price we input it int for x and find the total discount.
