Answer:

one gadget costs $15.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = cost of one widget

Let g = cost of one gadget

Given:

  • Five widgets and three gadgets cost $109. 90

⇒ 5w + 3g = 109.9

Given:

  • One widget and four gadgets cost $75. 70

⇒ w + 4g = 75.7

Rewrite  w + 4g = 75.7  to make w the subject:

⇒ w = 75.7 - 4g

Substitute into  5w + 3g = 109.9  and solve for g:

⇒ 5(75.7 - 4g) + 3g = 109.9

⇒ 378.5 - 20g + 3g = 109.9

⇒ 378.5 - 109.9 = 20g - 3g

⇒ 268.6 = 17g

⇒ g = 15.8

Therefore, one gadget costs $15.80

To find the cost of one widget, substitute the found value for g into
w = 75.7 - 4g and solve for w:

⇒ w = 75.7 - 4(15.8)

⇒ w = 75.7 - 63.2

⇒ w = 12.5

Therefore, one widget costs $12.50

Answer:

Lower limit = 1007.95 cm/s

Upper limit = 1142.05 cm/s

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 95% CI with population's standard deviation known.

The sample is size n=60, with mean M=1075.

The confidence interval can be expressed as:

M-z*\sigma/\sqrt{n} \leq\mu\leq M+z*\sigma/\sqrt{n}

For a 95% CI, the value of z=1.96.

1075-1.96*265/\sqrt{60} \leq\mu\leq 1075+1.96*265/\sqrt{60} \\\\1075-67.05 \leq\mu\leq 1075+67.05\\\\ 1007.95 \leq\mu\leq 1142.05

Amanda [17]
First, we calculate the amplitude
A = (1/2) (xmax - xmin)
A = (1/2) (8 - (-2)) = 5

Since we're given with the period which is pi, then the coefficient of x is just 1. So, the model is
y = 5 sin x

What is the value of the second quartile (Q2) of the data set?
Alekssandra [29.7K]
45, 51, 52, 58, 61, 63, 66, 72, 74

You're trying to find the second quartile (Q₂), and to find that, you must find the median, and then find the median within the second half of the median :)

Median (Middle Number) : 61

Now, look at 61, and look at 74. What is the median of those numbers in this set?

Q₂ = 66

So, your quartile 2 is 66.

~Hope I helped!~
