Given: Yu, Nailah, and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon  Yu bought 3 pieces of ribbon. Nailah bought 5 pieces of ribbon. Elena bought 6 pieces of ribbon.

To find: Who can buy which ribbon

Solution:

Ribbon Sizes

1 2/3 = 5/3  yard

4/5  yard

3 1/2  = 7/2 Yard

Yu, Nailah, and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon

Yu bought 3 pieces of ribbon

=> 3 * 5/3  = 5

  3 * 4/5  = 2.4

  3 * 7/2   = 10.5

Nailah  bought 5 pieces of ribbon

=> 5 * 5/3  = 8.33

   5 * 4/5  =  4

   5 * 7 /2   = 17.5

Elena bought 6 pieces of ribbon

=> 6 * 5/3  = 10

  6 * 4/5  = 4.8

  6 * 7 /2   = 21

Only value between 7 & 9 is 5 * 5/3  = 8.33

hence Nailah only can buy 1 2/3 = 5/3  yard ribbon

or there is some mistake in the data

What value represents the number of ways in which the expected classes are free to vary in the chi-square goodness-of-fit test?
Ket [755]

In statistics, the number of degrees of freedom is the number of values in the final calculation of a statistic that are free to vary.

The number of independent ways by which a dynamic system can move, without violating any constraint imposed on it, is called number of degrees of freedom. In other words, the number of degrees of freedom can be defined as the minimum number of independent coordinates that can specify the position of the system completely.

A savings account compounds interest, at a rate of 22%, once a year. George puts $750 in the account as the principal. How can G
Umnica [9.8K]
George shouldn't think too far.

He should use the formula for Compound Interest.

Amount in compound interest, A = P(1+ r/100)ⁿ.

Where A = Amount, P = Principal, r is the rate per year, n = number of years.

Note: the expression (1+ r/100) is raised to power  n.     

From George's problem: P = 750,    r = 22,  I guess number of years , n = x

A(x) = 750( 1 + 22/100)ˣ

A(x) = 750( 1 + 0.22)ˣ 

From your options I can't see an answer. Except the expression of option (A) is actually raised to power x, and not times x as stated in the option.
