Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved by working backwards.

7 is one more than half the number of invitations.

Subtract 1. 6 is half the number of invitations.

Double.

12 is the full number of invitations.

Algebra (if you must!):

x = number of invitations

x/2 + 1 = 7

Subtract 1.

x/2 = 6

Multiply by 2.

x = 12

Noah is buying a pair of jeans and using a coupon for 10%off. The total price is $56.70 which includes $2.70 in sales tax. Noah’

lora16 [44]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know that Noah's purchase can be modeled by the equation:

$x-0.1x+2.70=56.70$

Part 1)

The solution to the equation will be the value of x.

In this case, x will represent the original price of the jeans.

We know that Noah has a coupon for 10% off the original price of the jeans.

So, 0.1x will represent how much of the original price Noah gets a a discount on.

Therefore, (x - 0.1x) represents the total cost of the jeans after the coupon.

So, x is our original price of the jeans.

Part 2)

To verify that 70 is not a solution, we can simply substitute 70 for x and check whether or not the equation is true. So:

$(70)-0.1(70)+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}56.70$

Multiply:

$70-7+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}56.7$

Subtract:

$63+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}56.7$

Add:

$65.7\neq56.7$

However, we can verify that 60 is the solution by substituting. So, substitute 60 for every x:

$(60)-0.1(60)+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}5.7$

Multiply:

$60-6+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}56.7$

Subtract:

$54+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}56.7$

Add:

$56.7\stackrel{\checkmark}{=}56.7$

So, 60 is indeed the solution and is the value of x.

So, this means that $60 was the original price of the jeans.

A doctor is measuring the average height of male students at a large college. The doctor measures the heights, in inches, of a s

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

There is a 95% confidence that the true mean height of all male student at the large college is between the interval (63.5, 74.4).

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for population mean is:

$CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for population parameter implies that there is a (1 - α) probability that the true value of the parameter is included in the interval.

Or, the (1 - α)% confidence interval for the parameter implies that there is (1 - α)% confidence or certainty that the true parameter value is contained in the interval.

The 95% confidence interval for the average height of male students at a large college is, (63.5 inches, 74.4 inches).

The 95% confidence interval for the average height of male students (63.5, 74.4) implies that, there is a 0.95 probability that the true mean height of all male student at the large college is between the interval (63.5, 74.4).

Or, there is a 95% confidence that the true mean height of all male student at the large college is between the interval (63.5, 74.4).
