To celebrate a diners anniversary, the owners have made a 40 foot long sandwich. The sandwich is cut into three unequal pieces.
Ivahew [28]
Let x be he length of middle piece.
3x = length of longer piece.
x-5 = length of shortest piece.

x + 3x + x-5 = 40
5x - 5 = 40
5x = 45
x = 45/5
x = 9. ( Size of middle piece )

Given that the longer piece is 3 times the size of middle piece,

Longest piece = 3 x 9 = 27.

Size of longest piece = 27 feet
Size of middle piece = 9 feet
Size of smaller piece = 40 - (27+9)
= 40 - 36
= 4 feet.
Thank you.

Liz is hiking a trail that is 0.8 miles long. Liz hikes the first 2 tenths of the distance by herself. She hikes the of the way
antoniya [11.8K]
0.6 miles.

Since there is 0.8 miles to hike in total, she hiked 0.2 miles.

To solve, we just easily subtract the amount that Liz hiked from the amount that needs to be hiked.

She hiked 0.2 miles, which means we need to subtract 0.2 from 0.8.

8 - 2 = 6

The answer is 0.6 miles.

Suppose that a company prints baseball cards. They claim that 30% of the cards feature rookies, 60% feature veterans, and 10% fe
liraira [26]

Answer:

H0: The distribution of players featured on the cards is 0.30 rookies, 0.60 veterans, and 0.10 All-Stars.

Ha: At least one of the proportions in the null hypothesis is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

On this case we need to apply a Chi squared goodness of fit test, and the correct system of hypothesis would be:

H0: The distribution of players featured on the cards is 0.30 rookies, 0.60 veterans, and 0.10 All-Stars.

Ha: At least one of the proportions in the null hypothesis is false.

And in order to test it we need to have observed and expected values. On this case we  can calculate the Expected values like this

E_{rookies}=50*0.3=15

E_{veterans}=50*0.6=30

E_{All stars}=50*0.1=5

The observed values are not provided. The statistic on this case is given by:

\chi^2 =\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{(O_i) -E_i}{E_i}

And this statistic follows a chi square distribution with k-1 degrees of freedom on this case k=3, since we have 3 groups.

We can calculate the p valu like this:

P(\chi^2 > \chi^2_{calculated})=p_v

And if the p value it's higher than the significance level we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis. In other case we reject the null hypothesis.
