5. Adriana gives half of her t-shirts to charity. Then

which equation, written in standard form correctly represents this scenario and indicates what the variables represent?

pishuonlain [190]

The answer is the third option.

The explanation is shown below:

1. You must keep on mind the information given in the exercise:

- She bough 3 pounds of coffee.

- She bought 2 pounds of chocolate.

- She spent a total of $24.

2. Therefore, you can call the price per pound of coffee $x$ and the price per pound of chocolate $y$ .

3. When you multiply 3 pounds by the price per pound of coffee, you obtain the amount of money she spent for 3 pounds. When you multiply 2 pounds by the price per pound of chocolate, you obtain the amount of money she spent for 2 pounds. If you add both amounts, you obtain the total spent, which was $24.

4. Therefore, you can express this as following:

$3x+2y=24$

It is advertised that the average braking distance for a small car traveling at 65 miles per hour equals 120 feet. A transportat

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is equal to 120 or not, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu = 120$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 120$

Part 2

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$z=\frac{114-120}{\frac{22}{\sqrt{36}}}=-1.636$

P-value

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=114$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=22$ represent the population standard deviation

$n=36$ sample size

$\mu_o =120$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

Part 1

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is equal to 120 or not, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu = 120$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 120$

If we analyze the size for the sample is > 30 and we know the population deviation so is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Part 2

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$z=\frac{114-120}{\frac{22}{\sqrt{36}}}=-1.636$

P-value

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(z$

Annual snowfall in Anchorage, Alaska, is normally distributed with a mean height of 76 inches and a standard deviation of 4.7 in

lukranit [14]

Answer:

67.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Given that:

µ = 76 ; σ = 4.7

P(x < 80.7) - P(x < 71.4)

Obtain the standardized score, Z ; x = 71. 4

Zscore = (x - μ) / σ

P(x < 71.4) = (71.4 - 76) / 4.7

P(x < 71.4) = - 4.6 / 4.7

P(x < 71.4) = - 0.9787

P(z < 0.9787) = 0.16386

x = 80.7

P(x < 80.7) = (80.7 - 76) / 4.7

P(x < 80.7) = 4.7 / 4.7

P(x < 80.7) = 1

P(z < 1) = 0.84134

0.84134 - 0.16386 = 0.67748 = 67.748% = 67.75%

a line segment has endpoints A (-8,6) and B (4,6). What is the distance in units between point A and B?

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

The distance between point A and point B is 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

d = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

d = √(-8 - 4)² + (6 - 6)²

d = √144 + 0

d = 12
