PLS I NEED HELP I GIVE ALL POINTS I HAVE!! :( In 1984 the average American ate 55.7 pounds of chicken. This was 2.8 pounds more

than the 1982 average. By what percent did chicken consumption increase from 1982 to 1984?

Answer: Production in 2007 reached more than. 91.5 billion pounds. ... billion pounds, with chicken production totaling 36.6 ... Average Annual Per Capita Consumption (in pounds). 0.0. 10.0 ... 1980 1982 1984 1986 1988 1990 1992 1994 1996 1998 2000 2002 2004 2006. Year ... half (55 percent) of all meat consumed are red meat.

simplfying to get 19.8928571429

then you mul·ti·ple equals 155.96

then you subtract and it gets you 52.9

then you add gets you 58.5.

This question is quite simple as long as you know how to do math you should ace all of your math classes..

Mathematics can get pretty complicated. Fortunately, not all math problems need to be inscrutable. Here are five current problems in the field of mathematics that anyone can understand, but nobody has been able to solve.

like...Pick any number. If that number is even, divide it by 2. If it's odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1. Now repeat the process with your new number. If you keep going, you'll eventually end up at 1. Every time.

Mathematicians have tried millions of numbers and they've never found a single one that didn't end up at 1 eventually. The thing is, they've never been able to prove that there isn't a special number out there that never leads to 1. It's possible that there's some really big number that goes to infinity instead, or maybe a number that gets stuck in a loop and never reaches 1. But no one has ever been able to prove that for certain.

So you're moving into your new apartment, and you're trying to bring your sofa. The problem is, the hallway turns and you have to fit your sofa around a corner. If it's a small sofa, that might not be a problem, but a really big sofa is sure to get stuck. If you're a mathematician, you ask yourself: What's the largest sofa you could possibly fit around the corner? It doesn't have to be a rectangular sofa either, it can be any shape.

This is the essence of the moving sofa problem. Here are the specifics: the whole problem is in two dimensions, the corner is a 90-degree angle, and the width of the corridor is 1. What is the largest two-dimensional area that can fit around the corner?

The largest area that can fit around a corner is called—I kid you not—the sofa constant. Nobody knows for sure how big it is, but we have some pretty big sofas that do work, so we know it has to be at least as big as them. We also have some sofas that don't work, so it has to be smaller than those. All together, we know the sofa constant has to be between 2.2195 and 2.8284.

AM I BEING TO MUCH OF A SMART ALECK, I'm sorry if i am LOL.

but if you need help with another question, you can ask me :)

Rockwell hardness of pins of a certain type is known to have a mean value of 50 and a standard deviation of 1.8. (Round your ans
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

a) 0.011 = 1.1% probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 17 pins is at least 51

b) 0.0001 = 0.1% probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 45 pins is at least 51

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 50, \sigma = 1.8

(a) If the distribution is normal, what is the probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 17 pins is at least 51?

Here n = 17, s = \frac{1.8}{\sqrt{17}} = 0.4366

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 51. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{51 - 50}{0.4366}

Z = 2.29

Z = 2.29 has a pvalue of 0.9890

1 - 0.989 = 0.011

0.011 = 1.1% probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 17 pins is at least 51

(b) What is the (approximate) probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 45 pins is at least 51?

Here n = 17, s = \frac{1.8}{\sqrt{45}} = 0.2683

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{51 - 50}{0.0.2683}

Z = 3.73

Z = 3.73 has a pvalue of 0.9999

1 - 0.9999 = 0.0001

0.0001 = 0.1% probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 45 pins is at least 51

Help! I really need to pass!
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \sf{y =  - 2x + 6}}}}

☥ \tt{Question} :

  • Write the equation of a line in slope - intercept form that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point ( - 1 , 8 ).

☥ \tt{Step  -  \: by \:  -  \: step \: explanation}

☪ \underline{ \underline{ \text{Given : }}}

  • Slope ( m ) = -2
  • Given point = ( - 1 , 8 )

☪ \underline {\underline{ \text{To \: find}}} :

  • Equation of a line in slope - intercept form ( i.e y = mx + c )

Let the point ( -1 , 8 ) be ( x₁ , y₁ )

☪ \underline{ \underline{ \text{Solution}}} :

\underline{ \sf{y - y1 = m(x - x1)}}

plug the known values :

↦ \text{y - 8 =  - 2 \{ x - ( - 1) \} }

↦ \text{y - 8 =  - 2(x + 1)}

Distribute -2 through the parentheses :

↦ \text{y - 8 =  - 2x - 2}

Transpose 8 to right hand side and change it's sign

↦ \text{y =  - 2x - 2 + 8}

↦ \boxed{ \text{y =  - 2x + 6}}

And we're done !

Hope I helped!

Which of the following describes the image of a triangle after a dilation that has a scale factor of 5/6
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

See example below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The image of a triangle will be 5/6 the size. It will be slightly smaller than the original. For example, if the side measurement of the triangle on one side is 12 then the image of the triangle after a dilation will be 12*5/6 = 60/6 = 10.

The new side length is 10 slightly smaller than 12.

X/-9 =3<br>I dont understand this.​
STatiana [176]

Final Answer: x = -27

Steps/Equations:

Question: \frac{x}{-9} = 3

Step 1: Move the negative sign to the left side.

-\frac{x}{9} = 3

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 3.

-x = 3 * 9

Step 3: Simplify 3 * 9 to 27.

-x = 27

Step 4: Multiply both sides by -1.

x = -27

~I hope I helped :)~
