You are ordering softballs for two softball leagues. The Elementary League uses a
larger softball priced at $2.75 each. The Middle School league uses a smaller softball
prices at $3.25 each. You order a total of 80 softballs for $245. What equations
would you use to find out how many of each size of softball you can order. Let L =
the larger softball and let S = the smaller softball.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

H0: µ = 7.2

For the alternative hypothesis,

H1: µ ≠ 7.2

This is a two tailed test.

Since the population standard deviation is given, the test statistic would be the z score determined from the normal distribution table. The formula is

z = (x - µ)/(σ/√n)

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = population standard deviation

n = number of samples

From the information given,

µ = 7.2

x = 7.3

σ = 0.8

n = 250

z = (7.3 - 7.2)/(0.8/√250) = 1.976

Test statistic is 1.976

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  281,000 homes sold through Jan 2011 was 66.3% of homes completed

  378,000 homes was a 28.5% decrease from starts in 2010

Find:

  (i) Homes completed in 12 months through Jan 2011

  (ii) Comparison to homes started in 2010

Solution:

(i) Using the given relation, we can find homes completed through Jan 2011.

  281,000 = 0.663×completed

  completed = 281,000/0.663 = 423,831

__

(ii) Similarly, we can find the number of 2010 starts:

  starts(1 -28.5%) = 378,000

  starts = 378,000/0.715 = 528,671

The relation of completions in 2011 to starts in 2010 is ...

  423,831 -528,671 = -104,840

__

Through Jan 2011, there were 423,831 homes completed, which was 104,840 fewer than the number of starts in 2010.

Answer:  Sheila today = [tex]46\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]  yrs old

Step-by-step explanation:

   J + S = 115 v⇒  J = 115 - S

Current Ages                        Ages 14 years ago

 Joe (J) = 115 - S                      J - 14 = 2(S - 14)

 Sheila (S) = S

Substitute J = 115 - S into the "14 years ago" equation

      J    - 14 = 2(S - 14)

(115 - S) - 14 = 2(S - 14)

111 -S = 2S - 28

111 = 3S  - 28

139 = 3S

46 [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = S

It is odd that the result was not an integer.  I wonder if you meant to type "Joe was twice as old as Sheila is today.  That would change the equation to:

J - 14 = 2S

111 - S = 2S

111 = 3S

37 = S

Answer:

17+m=34

Step-by-step explanation:

Nina had 17 marbles in a bag + the x amount of marbles that her mom gives her.

so 17+x=34

(x is the variable that I chose however it could be any variable, so it would also mean the same thing as 17+m=34)

Hope this helped!

Answer:

17 + m = 34.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nina had 17 marbles;

Mother put a handful of marbles, let's say m.

Now Nina has 34 marbles.

34 marbles is [=] 17 marbles Nina had before + m from her mother.

17 + m = 34 will be the right equation.

Answer:

6.10%

Step-by-step explanation:

For every round since we are choosing with equal probability, then the probability of choosing from either of the bags is 1/2

Here, this scenario is only possible when a particular bag has been chosen 10 times and the other bag has been chosen 6 times ( meaning a particular bag has been emptied and for a particular bag to be emptied, all of its content would have been picked)

Now on the 17th trial, an empty bag is chosen

Therefore the required probability will be;

16C0 * (1/2)^10 * (1/2)^6 * 1/2 = 0.0610 = 6.1%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation, 2x- y = 5, if x = 3, to get y we will simply substitute the value of x into the expression given as shown;

[tex]2x - y = 5\\\\Substituting \ x = 3\ into \ the \ equation\\\\2(3) - y = 5\\\\6 - y = 5\\\\subtracting\ 6\ from\ both\ sides\\\\6-6-y = 5- 6\\\\-y = -1\\\\multiplying\ both\ sides\ by \ -1\\-(-y) = -(-1)\\\\y = 1[/tex]

Hence, the value of y is 1

Answer:

You will have $29,000 in 30 years, and you need to start with about $2,772.28 to make $14,000 in 9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total investment use the equation [tex]A = P(1 + rt)[/tex]

Where A equals total investment, P is your start investment, r is your rate, and t is time.

[tex]A=2,000(1+(0.45 * 30))[/tex]

[tex]A=2,000(1+13.5)[/tex]

[tex]A=2,000*14.5[/tex]

[tex]A=29,000[/tex]

To find the start investment use the equation [tex]P = A / (1 + rt)[/tex]

[tex]P=14,000/(1+(0.45*9))[/tex]

[tex]P=14,000/(1+4.05)[/tex]

[tex]P=14,000/5.05[/tex]

[tex]P=2,772.28[/tex]

Answer:

The lines will intersect infinitely many times, because they are identical.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's change the equations of the lines into (y=mx+b) form.

6x-4y=2 Divide by 2.

3x-2y=1 Move x and divide by -2.

-2y=1-3x ---> y= -1/2+3/2x

The equation of the first line is y=3/2x- 1/2

-2y+3x=1

-2y=1-3x

y = 3/2x -1/2

The equation of the second line is y = 3/2x- 1/2.

The lines are identical- infinitely many intersections.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the temperature is supposed to remain constant over time (the same) when working properly, then this means that there is no increase or decrease over time.

If there were a line to represent this, then it would be a straight line with a slope of 0 because the temperature would remain the same.

Answer:

Yes. At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to support the claim that the fish in all Florida lakes have different mercury than the allowable amount.

The random variable is the sample mean amount of mercury in the bass fish from the lakes of Florida.

The population parameter is the mean amount of mercury in the bass fish of Florida lakes.

The alternative hypothesis (Ha) states that the amount of mercury significantly differs from 1 mg/kg.

The null hypothesis (H0) states that the amount of mercury is not significantly different from 1 mg/kg.

[tex]H_0: \mu=1\\\\H_a:\mu\neq 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete.

There is no data provided.

We will work with a sample mean of 0.95 mg/kg and sample standard deviation of 0.15 mg/kg to show the procedure.

This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that the fish in all Florida lakes have different mercury than the allowable amount (1 mg of mercury per kg of fish).

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu=1\\\\H_a:\mu\neq 1[/tex]

The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.

The sample has a size n=53.

The sample mean is M=0.95.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=0.15.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{0.15}{\sqrt{53}}=0.0206[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{0.95-1}{0.0206}=\dfrac{-0.05}{0.0206}=-2.427[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=53-1=52[/tex]

This test is a two-tailed test, with 52 degrees of freedom and t=-2.427, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

[tex]\text{P-value}=2\cdot P(t<-2.427)=0.019[/tex]

As the P-value (0.019) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to support the claim that the fish in all Florida lakes have different mercury than the allowable amount.

[tex]19.6+2.42\frac{5.8}{\sqrt{42}}=21.77[/tex]    

And the best option for this case would be:

a. (17.5, 21.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

[tex]\bar X= 19.6[/tex] represent the sample mean

[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean

[tex]\sigma= 5.8[/tex] represent the population deviation

n=42 represent the sample size  

Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

[tex]\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]   (1)

The degrees of freedom, given by:

[tex]df=n-1=42-1=41[/tex]

Since the Confidence is 0.98 or 98%, the significance would be [tex]\alpha=0.02[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.1[/tex], and the critical value would be [tex]t_{\alpha/2}=2.42[/tex]

Replacing we got:

[tex]19.6-2.42\frac{5.8}{\sqrt{42}}=17.43[/tex]    

[tex]19.6+2.42\frac{5.8}{\sqrt{42}}=21.77[/tex]    

And the best option for this case would be:

a. (17.5, 21.7)

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for the population mean is between 17.5 hours and 21.7 hours.

Answer: The equations are

w + s = 4500

2.25s = 4500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the number of bottles of water that the football manager bought.

Let s represent the number of bottles of soda that the football manager bought.

The manager needs to buy a total of 4,500 drinks. This means that

w + s = 4500

He also needs to have 25% more water than soda.

25% of soda = 25/100 × s = 0.25s

25% more of water than soda = s + 0.25s = 1.25s

The equation would be

1.25s + s = 4500

2.25s = 4500

Answer:

As per the properties of parallel lines and interior alternate angles postulate, we can prove that:

[tex]m\angle 5+m\angle 2+m\angle 6=180^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Line y || z

i.e. y is parallel to z.

To Prove:

[tex]m\angle 5+m\angle 2+m\angle 6=180^\circ[/tex]

Solution:

It is given that the lines y and z are parallel to each other.

[tex]m\angle 5, m\angle 1[/tex] are interior alternate angles because lines y and z are parallel and one line AC cuts them.

So, [tex]m\angle 5= m\angle 1[/tex] ..... (1)

Similarly,

[tex]m\angle 6, m\angle 3[/tex] are interior alternate angles because lines y and z are parallel and one line AB cuts them.

So, [tex]m\angle 6= m\angle 3[/tex] ...... (2)

Now, we know that the line y is a straight line and A is one point on it.

Sum of all the angles on one side of a line on a point is always equal to [tex]180^\circ[/tex].

i.e.

[tex]m\angle 1+m\angle 2+m\angle 3=180^\circ[/tex]

Using equations (1) and (2):

We can see that:

[tex]m\angle 5+m\angle 2+m\angle 6=180^\circ[/tex]

Hence proved.
