The table shows the relationship between the number of minutes Rodney spends practicing playing the piano p, and the number of m

vagabundo [1.1K]

<u>Answer-</u>

The equation that describes the pattern is,

$\boxed{\boxed{y=2{x}+30}}$

<u>Solution-</u>

P = Number of minutes Rodney spends practicing playing the piano

G = Number of minutes Rodney spends practicing playing the guitar

Taking P on x axis and G on y axis, the points are,

$(0,30),(15,60),(30,90),(45,120)$

Taking first two points i.e $(0,30),(15,60)$ , the line equation will be,

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-y_1}{y_2-y_1}=\dfrac{x-x_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-30}{60-30}=\dfrac{x-0}{15-0}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-30}{30}=\dfrac{x}{15}$

$\Rightarrow 15(y-30)=30{x}$

$\Rightarrow y-30=2{x}$

$\Rightarrow y=2{x}+30$

Putting the other two points i.e $(30,90),(45,120)$ in the equation, they also satisfy the equation. That means they are also on the same line $y=2{x}+30$ .

From the result, it is evident that P and G are linearly related.

What is 17/21 - 2/10 = ___ - ___ = ____

umka2103 [35]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. 17/21 - 2/10 = x (in order to subtract you need a common denominator)

step 2. (17/21)(10/10) - (2/10)(21/21) = x

step 3. 170/210 - 42/210 = x

step 4. 128/210 = 64/105 = x

step 5. x = 64/105.

Brewed decaffeinated coffee contains some caffeine. We want to estimate the amount of caffeine in 8 ounce cups of decaf coffee a

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

We would have to take a sample of 62 to achieve this result.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence level of 95%.

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.025 = 0.975$ , so Z = 1.96.

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.

Assume that the standard deviation in the amount of caffeine in 8 ounces of decaf coffee is known to be 2 mg.

This means that $\sigma = 2$

If we wanted to estimate the true mean amount of caffeine in 8 ounce cups of decaf coffee to within /- 0.5 mg, how large a sample would we have to take to achieve this result?

We would need a sample of n.

n is found when $M = 0.5$ . So

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.5 = 1.96\frac{2}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.5\sqrt{n} = 2*1.96$

Dividing both sides by 0.5

$\sqrt{n} = 4*1.96$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (4*1.96)^2$

$n = 61.5$

Rounding up

We would have to take a sample of 62 to achieve this result.
