Triple a number decreased by 14

1 answer:

3 0

Since we know 14, but we don't know the other number, we use a variable. To do that, we look at the problem, then we figure out the unknown. The unknown is: A number. We know 14. Since "Triple" means 3, we can put the exponent 3 by X.

Therefore, the answer is $X^3-14$ .

Pedro le dice a María si cambias los billetes de 10 € que tienes por billetes de 5 € y los billetes de 5 € por billetes de 10 €

Bad White [126]

Answer: Maria has 10 bills of 5€ and 10 bills of 10€.

She has a total of 150€.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "f" the number of 5€ bills that Maria has and "t" the number of 10€ bills that Maria has.

Set up a system of equations:

$\left \{ {{f+t=20} \atop {5f+10t=10f+5t}} \right.$

Use the Substitution method to solve the system of equations:

1. Solve for "f" from the first equation:

$f=20-t$

2. Substitute the equation obtained into the second equation and solve for "t".

Then:

$5(20-t)+10t=10(20-t)+5t\\\\100-5t+10t=200-10t+5t\\\\20t-10t=100\\\\t=\frac{100}{10}\\\\t=10$

3. Substitute the value of "t" into the equation $f=20-t$ and evaluate:

$f=20-10\\\\f=10$

Therefore, Maria has 10 bills of 5€ and 10 bills of 10 €.

So the total amount of money she has, is:

$Total=10(5)+10(10)=150$

She has a total of 150€.

10. A manufacturer wanted to know if more coupons would be redeemed if they were mailed to the

Mandarinka [93]

Using the t-distribution, it is found that the data does not provide convincing evidence that the mean number is greater when the coupons were addressed to a female.

<h3>What are the hypothesis tested?</h3>

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if there is no difference, that is, the mean is of 0, hence:

$H_0: \mu = 0$

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean number is greater for females, that is, the mean is greater than 0, hence:

$H_1: \mu > 0$

<h3>What is the test statistic?</h3>

The test statistic is given by:

$t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

The parameters are:

$\overline{x}$ is the sample mean.

$\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis.

s is the standard deviation of the sample.

n is the sample size.

In this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

$\overline{x} = 1.5, \mu = 0, s = 4.75, n = 50$ .

Hence, the test statistic is given by:

$t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$t = \frac{1.5 - 0}{\frac{4.75}{\sqrt{50}}}$

t = 2.23

<h3>What is the conclusion?</h3>

Considering a <em>right-tailed test</em>, as we are testing if the mean is greater than a value, with a <em>significance level of 0.01 and 50 - 1 = 49 df</em>, the critical value is given by $t^{\ast} = 2.4$ .

Since the test statistic is less than the critical value for the right-tailed test, the data does not provide convincing evidence that the mean number is greater when the coupons were addressed to a female.
