A taxi charges$2.50 plus $2 for every mile traveled. Find the number of miles traveled for a fare of $10.50.

80% is the same as 4/5, so 4/5 of the class= 20. That means that if there was a picture, 4 parts would be shaded, and 1 would not. 1/4 of 20 is 5, so 1 part= 5 people. 5 x 5 = 25. 25 is the answer. :)

Which of the following are solutions to the quadratic equation? Check all that

xenn [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't see options but here's the solution

2x²+9x-3=-x²+x

2x²+x²+9x-x-3=0

3x²+8x-3=0

(3x-1)(x+3)=0

Therefore x=⅓ or-3

Quit smoking: In a survey of 444 HIV-positive smokers, 202 reported that they had used a nicotine patch to try to quit smoking.

Flauer [41]

Answer:

The p-value of the test is of 0.0287 < 0.05(standard significance level), which means that it can be concluded that less than half of HIV-positive smokers have used a nicotine patch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if less than half of HIV-positive smokers have used a nicotine patch:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of at least half, that is:

$H_0: p \geq 0.5$

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is below 0.5, that is:

$H_1: p < 0.5$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 0.5, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5*(1-0.5)} = 0.5$

In a survey of 444 HIV-positive smokers, 202 reported that they had used a nicotine patch to try to quit smoking.

This means that $n = 444, X = \frac{202}{444} = 0.455$

Value of the test statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{0.455 - 0.5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{444}}}$

$z = -1.9$

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion below 0.455, which is the p-value of z = -1.9.

Looking at the z-table, z = -1.9 has a p-value of 0.0287.

The p-value is of 0.0287 < 0.05(standard significance level), which means that it can be concluded that less than half of HIV-positive smokers have used a nicotine patch.
