Please help me 33/2 + 3y/5 = 7y/10 + 15

8090 [49]

We are given with an equation in variable y and we need to solve for y . So , now let's start !!!

We are given with ;

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{33}{2}+\dfrac{3y}{5}=\dfrac{7y}{10}+15}$

Take LCM on both sides :

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{165+6y}{10}=\dfrac{7y+150}{10}}$

Multiplying both sides by 10 ;

${:\implies \quad \sf \cancel{10}\times \dfrac{165+6y}{\cancel{10}}=\cancel{10}\times \dfrac{7y+150}{\cancel{10}}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 165+6y=7y+150}$

Can be further written as ;

${:\implies \quad \sf 7y+150=165+6y}$

Transposing 6y to LHS and 150 to RHS

${:\implies \quad \sf 7y-6y=165-150}$

${:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \quad \underline{\underline{y=15}}}$

Hugh bought some magazines that cost $3.95 each and some books that cost $8.95 each. He spent a total of $47.65. If Hugh bought

Klio2033 [76]

He bought 4 books.

3.95m + 8.95b = 47.65

If he bought 3 magazines, m =3
(3.95)3 +8.95b = 47.65
11.85 + 8.95b =47.65
now we subtract 11.85 from both sides
8.95b = 35.80
we divide both sides by 8.95
b=4
Hugh bought 4 books.

A consumer products company is formulating a new shampoo and is interested in foam height (in mm). Foam height is approximately

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

a) 0.057

b) 0.5234

c) 0.4766

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the p-value if the sample average is 185, we first compute the z-score associated to this value, we use the formula

$z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt N}$

where

$\bar x=mean\; of\;the \;sample$

$\mu=mean\; established\; in\; H_0$

$\sigma=standard \; deviation$

N = size of the sample.

So,

$z=\frac{185-175}{20/\sqrt {10}}=1.5811$

$\boxed {z=1.5811}$

As the sample suggests that the real mean could be greater than the established in the null hypothesis, then we are interested in the area under the normal curve to the right of 1.5811 and this would be your p-value.

We compute the area of the normal curve for values to the right of 1.5811 either with a table or with a computer and find that this area is equal to 0.0569 = 0.057 rounded to 3 decimals.

So the p-value is

$\boxed {p=0.057}$

Since the z-score associated to an α value of 0.05 is 1.64 and the z-score of the alternative hypothesis is 1.5811 which is less than 1.64 (z critical), we cannot reject the null, so we are making a Type II error since 175 is not the true mean.

We can compute the probability of such an error following the next steps:

Step 1

Compute $\bar x_{critical}$
