Which equation is equal to 4a + 2b = 10?

The LB Company has long manufactured a light bulb with an average life of 5400 hours. Company researchers have recently develope

elena55 [62]

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

Let $\mu$ be the average life of light bulbs.

As per given , we have

Null hypothesis : $H_0 : \mu =5400$

Alternative hypothesis : $H_a : \mu >5400$

Since $H_a$ is right-tailed and population standard deviation is also known, so we perform right-tailed z-test.

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

where, n= sample size

$\overline{x}$ = sample mean

$\mu$ = Population mean

$\sigma$ =population standard deviation

For $n=95,\ \overline{x}=5483\ \&\ \sigma=500$ , we have

$z=\dfrac{5483-5400}{\dfrac{500}{\sqrt{95}}}=1.61796786124\approx1.6180$

Using z-value table , Critical one-tailed test value for 0.06 significance level :

$z_{0.06}=1.5548$

Decision : Since critical z value (1.5548) < test statistic (1.6180), so we reject the null hypothesis .

[We reject the null hypothesis when critical value is less than the test statistic value .]

Conclusion : We have enough evidence at 0.06 significance level to support the claim that the new filament yields a longer bulb life

750 feet tall how many stories would the building have

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Well if a story is 14-16 feet tall, then it would be about 50 floors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each story is 14-16 feet, and if you meet in the middle (15 feet) just divide 750 by 15, you get 50.

Please Help me! Algebra 1

Option a: The number of bacteria at time x is 0.

Option b: An exponential function that represents the population is $y=200(1.5)^x$

Option c: The population after 10 minutes is 11534(app)

Explanation:

It is given that the coordinates of the graph are (0,200), (1,300) and (2, 450)

Option a: To determine the number of bacteria x when y = 200

From the graph, we can see that the line meets y = 200 when x = 0

Thus, the coordinates are (0,200)

Hence, the number of bacteria at time x is 0 when y = 200.

Option b: Now, we shall determine the exponential function of the population.

The general formula for exponential function is $y=a \cdot b^{x}$

Where a is the starting point and $a=200$

b is the common difference.

To determine the common difference, let us divide,

$\frac{300}{200} =1.5$

Also, $\frac{450}{300} =1.5$

Hence, the common difference is $b=1.5$

Thus, substituting the values $a=200$ and $b=1.5$ in the formula $y=a \cdot b^{x}$ ,

we have, $y=200(1.5)^x$

Hence, An exponential function that represents the population is $y=200(1.5)^x$

Option c: To determine the population after 10 minutes, let us substitute $x=10$ in $y=200(1.5)^x$ , since the x represents the population of the bacteria in minutes.

Thus, we have,

$\begin{aligned}y &=200(1.5)^{x} \\&=200(1.5)^{10} \\&=200(57.67) \\&=11534\end{aligned}$

Hence, the population after 10 minutes is 11534(app)

If the sales tax is 3.5%, what is the cost of a pair of shoes with a price of $120? show work

Fudgin [204]

If you multiply 120 to 3.5% but in decimal form which is 0.035 you’ll get 4.2 and then add the 4.2 and 120 together and you get your answer with is $124.20
