Answer:

$5/3$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=1.6666666...$

$10x=16.66666666...$

$10x-x=16.666666666...-1.666666666...$

$9x=15$

$x=15/9=5/3$

Ket [755]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

$H_o: \mu \ge 55 \ \\ \\ H_1 : \mu < 55$

(a) For x = 54 and s = 5.3

The test statistics can be computed as:

$Z = \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }$

$Z = \dfrac{54-55}{\dfrac{5.3}{\sqrt{36}} }$

$Z = \dfrac{-1}{\dfrac{5.3}{6} }$

Z = -1.132

degree of freedom = n - 1

= 36 - 1

= 35

Using the Excel Formula:

P-Value = T.DIST(-1.132,35,1) = 0.1326

Decision: p-value is greater than significance level; do not reject $\mathbf{H_o}$

$Conclusion: \ There \ is \ insufficient \ evidence \ to \ conclude \ that \$ $\mu < 55$

For x = 53 and s = 4.6

The test statistics can be computed as:

$Z = \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }$

$Z = \dfrac{53-55}{\dfrac{4.6}{\sqrt{36}} }$

$Z = \dfrac{-2}{\dfrac{4.6}{6} }$

Z = -2.6087

degree of freedom = n - 1

= 36 - 1

= 35

Using the Excel Formula:

P-Value = T.DIST(-2.6087,35,1) =0.0066

Decision: p-value is < significance level; we reject the null hypothesis.

$Conclusion: \ There \ is \ sufficient \ evidence \ to \ conclude \ that$ $\mu < 55$

For x = 56 and s = 5.0

The test statistics can be computed as:

$Z = \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }$

$Z = \dfrac{56-55}{\dfrac{5.0}{\sqrt{36}} }$

Z = 1.2

degree of freedom = n - 1

= 36 - 1

= 35

Using the Excel Formula:

P-Value = T.DIST(1.2,35,1) = 0.88009

Decision: p-value is greater than significance level; do not reject $\mathbf{H_o}$

$Conclusion: \ There \ is \ insufficient \ evidence \ to \ conclude \ that \$ $\mu < 55$

the ratio of sallys height is 7:8. if the sum of their heights is 90 inches. how tall are sally and jack?

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Sally is 42 in. tall, and Jack is 48 in. tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are some words missing in the problem.

Perhaps the problem was meant to read:

"The ratio of Sally's height to Jack's height is 7:8. If the sum of their heights is 90 inches, how tall are Sally and Jack?"

Solution:

The ratio of the heights is 7:8.

Sally could measure 7 inches and Jack 8 inches, but then when you add the heights, 7 in. + 8 in. = 15 in. which is not 90 inches.

If you multiply both numbers in a ratio by the same number, the new numbers are still in the same ratio.

Multiply 7 and 8 by 2. You get 14 and 16. Maybe Sally is 14 in. tall and Jack is 16 in. tall. Add the heights, 14 in. + 16 in. = 30 in. This is also not 90 in.

We can keep on guessing what number to multiply by 7 and 8 by so their sum is 90, but we can use algebra to write an equation and not have to go through many guesses.

There is a number, x, that when you multiply 7 and 8 by x, the sum of the products is 90. We don't know what x is, but we can write an equation and solve for x.

The numbers in the ratio are 7x and 8x.

7x and 8x are still in the ratio 7:8.

Now we add the numbers 7x and 8x and set the sum equal to 90. Then we solve for x.

7x + 8x = 90

15x = 90

x = 6

We get x = 6. Now we know we need to multiply both 7 and 8 by 6 to get the heights we need.

7 in. * 6 = 42 in.

8 in. * 6 = 48 in.

Check: 42 in. + 48 in. = 90 in.

Answer: Sally is 42 in. tall, and Jack is 48 in. tall.

What is the best description of the relation?

Pie

Answer:

The relation is not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is a relation in which no two ordered pairs have the same input and different outputs. Whenever you're trying to determine whether a given relation is a function, observe whether each input corresponds with exactly one output.

In this case, the answer is no. The input value of 10 corresponds with two output values, 4 and 20. It only takes one input value to associate with more than one output value to be invalid as a function.

Therefore, the given relation is not a function.
