Answer:

Amanda= 14

Boris = 88

Jose= 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Amanda= jose-8

Boris = 4×jose

Jose= Jose

total all = 124

(jose-8)+(jose×4)+(jose)= 124

so we substitute jose with X .

(X-8)+(4X)+(X)=124

6X-8= 124.

6X=124+8

X=132/6

X= 22.

so that total jose is 22, minus 8 we get Amanda, times 4 we get Boris.

Melissa, Dan, and Henry have $87 in their wallets. Dan has 3 times what Henry has. Melissa has $8 less than Henry. How much does

puteri [66]

Answer:

Henry has $19, Dan has $57, and Melissa has $11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent how much money Henry has

Since Dan has 3 times what Henry has, his amount is 3x

Since Melissa has $8 less than Henry, her amount is x - 8

Create an equation that sets these 3 values equal to 87, then solve for x

(x) + (3x) + (x - 8) = 87

5x - 8 = 87

5x = 95

x = 19

So, Henry has $19

Find how much Dan has by multiplying 19 by 3

19(3)

= 57

Find how much Melissa has by subtracting 8 from 19

19 - 8

= 11

So, Henry has $19, Dan has $57, and Melissa has $11

A research scientist wants to know how many times per hour a certain strand of bacteria reproduces. The mean is found to be 9.8

svetlana [45]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean number of reproductions per hour for the bacteria is between 9.6 and 10.

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:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.99}{2} = 0.005$

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 $1-0.005 = 0.995$ , so $z = 2.575$

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.

$M = 2.575\frac{2.4}{\sqrt{955}} = 0.2$

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 9.8 - 0.2 = 9.6 reproductions per hour.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 9.8 + 0.2 = 10 reproductions per hour.

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean number of reproductions per hour for the bacteria is between 9.6 and 10.
