Answer:

9(x +y)

Step-by-step explanation:

You observe that both terms have a coefficient of 9. The distributive property lets you factor that out, so you can rewrite the expression as ...

9x +9y = 9(x +y)

_____

It might help to think of parentheses as a "bag." The expression 9(x+y) tells you the contents of one bag is (x+y) and you have 9 of them. You could think of x, and y as representing two different physical objects, for example, perhaps a ball and a cube.

The first expression, 9x +9y, tells you that you have 9 of each of these objects. The distributive property says this could be the result of dumping the contents of 9 bags, each containing one each of the objects. The expression 9(x+y) is the version of the expression that shows these objects as being grouped into 9 bags.

Mike bought five items for lunch that Cost a total of 4.55 .Hit dogs cost .1.10 each and cookies cost 0.75 each. What equation c

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

$c + h = 5$ and

$0.75c + 1.10h = 4.55$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that Mike bought only cookies and hot dogs.

The total can be represented as:

$Cookies + Hot\ Dogs = 5$ --- (1)

And the amount spent can be represented as:

$Cost\ of\ cookies + Cost\ of\ hot\ dogs = 4.55$ --- (2)

Required

Determine the system of equation

Let c represents the number of cookies and h, number of hot dogs.

$Cookies + Hot\ Dogs = 5$ implies $c + h = 5$

And

$Cost\ of\ cookies + Cost\ of\ hot\ dogs = 4.55$

Cost of cookies = 0.75 * c

Cost of hot dogs = 1.10 * h

So, we have:

$0.75c + 1.10h = 4.55$

Hence, the equations are:

$c + h = 5$ and

$0.75c + 1.10h = 4.55$

Solving for c and h

Make c the subject in $c + h = 5$

$c = 5 - h$

Substitute 5 - h for c in $0.75c + 1.10h = 4.55$

$0.75(5- h) + 1.10h = 4.55$

$3.75- 0.75h + 1.10h = 4.55$

$3.75 +0.35h = 4.55$

Collect Like Terms

$0.35h = 4.55 - 3.75$

$0.35h = 0.8$

Solve for h

$h = 0.8/0.35$

$h = 2.28571428571$

$h =2$ -- approximated

Recall that:

$c = 5 - h$

$c = 5 - 2$

$c =3$

Suppose a research firm conducted a survey to determine the average amount of money steady smokers spend on cigarettes during a

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

option (b) 0.0228

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Sample size, n = 100

Sample mean, μ = $20

Standard deviation, s = $5

Confidence interval = between $19 and $21

Now,

Confidence interval = μ ± $z\frac{s}{\sqrt n}$

thus,

Upper limit of the Confidence interval = μ + $z\frac{s}{\sqrt n}$

or

$21 = $20 + $z\frac{5}{\sqrt{100}}$

or

z = 2

Now,

P(z = 2) = 0.02275 [From standard z vs p value table]

or

P(z = 2) ≈ 0.0228

Hence,

the correct answer is option (b) 0.0228
