miles but not more than 90 miles. The system of inequalities represents the number of hours he can walk, w, and the number of hours he can run, r, to reach his goal. 3w + 6r ≥ 36 3w + 6r ≤ 90 Which combination of hours can Keitaro walk and run in a month to reach his goal? 2 hours walking; 12 hours running 4 hours walking; 3 hours running 9 hours walking; 12 hours running 12 hours walking; 10 hours running

Answer:

Option 1 is valid, which entails 2 hours of walking and 12 hours of running.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations provided are:

3w + 6r ≥ 36

3w + 6r ≤ 90

We'll assess which options comply with these equations.

1) 2 hours walking; 12 hours running

w = 2 and r = 12

3w + 6r ≥ 36

3(2) + 6(12) ≥ 36

6+72 ≥ 36

78 ≥ 36

3w + 6r ≤ 90

3(2) + 6(12) ≤ 90

6+72 ≤ 90

78 ≤ 90

Both equations are satisfied. Option 1 is valid.

2) 4 hours walking; 3 hours running

w = 4 and r = 3

3w + 6r ≥ 36

3(4) + 6(3) ≥ 36

12+18 ≥ 36

30 ≥ 36 (this does not hold since 30 < 36)

3w + 6r ≤ 90

3(4) + 6(3) ≤ 90

12+18 ≤ 90

30 ≤ 90

Thus, Option 2 is invalid.

3) 9 hours running; 12 hours walking

w = 9 and r = 12

3w + 6r ≥ 36

3(9) + 6(12) ≥ 36

27+72 ≥ 36

99 ≥ 36

3w + 6r ≤ 90

3(9) + 6(12) ≤ 90

27+72 ≤ 90

99 ≤ 90 (this does not hold since 99 > 90)

Option 3 is invalid.

4) 12 hours walking; 10 hours running

w = 12 and r = 10

3w + 6r ≥ 36

3(12) + 6(10) ≥ 36

36+60 ≥ 36

96 ≥ 36

3w + 6r ≤ 90

3(12) + 6(10) ≤ 90

36 + 60 ≤ 90

96 ≤ 90 (this does not hold since 96 > 90)

So, Option 4 is invalid.

The table shows the estimated number of lines of code written by computer programmers per hour when x people are working.

Zina [3917]

Answer:

Therefore, the data is best represented by:

$y=26.9x-1.3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a table indicating the estimated lines of code produced by computer programmers per hour when x individuals are engaged.

The question asks which model accurately reflects this data.

To determine this, we will substitute the values of x into each function to see which one accurately produces the corresponding y (f(x)) values provided in the table:

We are presented with four functions, which are:

A)

$y = 47(1.191)^x$

B)

$y=34\times (1.204)^x$

C)

$y=26.9x-1.3$

D)

$y=27x-4$

We'll create a table displaying these values at various x levels.

x A B C D

2 66.66 49.3 52.5 50

4 94.57 71.44 106.3 104

6 134.14 103.57 160.1 158

8 190.27 150.14 213.9 212

10 269.91 217.64 267.7 266

12 382.85 315.5 321.5 320.

Thus, the function that suitably represents the data is:

Option C.

y=26.9x-1.3

tester [3938]

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 10$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 10$

b) $p_v =P(t_{17}$

Given that the p-value is lower than the significance threshold in this situation, we have sufficient grounds to reject the null hypothesis.

c) $p_v =P(t_{17}$

In this case, since the p-value exceeds the significance threshold, we have adequate evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

d) $p_v =P(t_{17}$

Here again, with the p-value being less than the significance level, we can reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Provided data and references

$\bar X$ represents the average of the samples

$s$ denotes the standard deviation of the samples

$n=18$ indicates the number of samples

$\mu_o =10$ is the value we are examining

$\alpha$ defines the significance level for the test.

t represents the specific statistic of interest

$p_v$ indicates the p-value relevant to the test (the variable of concern)

Define the null and alternative hypotheses.

To assess if the true mean is at least 10 hours, we must set up a hypothesis:

Part a

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 10$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 10$

If we consider the sample size being less than 30 and the population deviation unknown, it’s more appropriate to use a t-test to compare the actual mean with the reference value, calculated as:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

Part b

In this scenario t=-2.3, $\alpha=0.05$

Initially, we need to calculate the degrees of freedom $df=n-1=18-1=17$

Since this is a left-tailed test, the p-value is determined by:

$p_v =P(t_{17}$

In this instance, with the p-value being less than the significance level, we have sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Part c

For this situation t=-1.8, $\alpha=0.01$

We need to find the degrees of freedom $df=n-1=18-1=17$

For the left-tailed test, the p-value is given by:

$p_v =P(t_{17}$

In this case, since the p-value is above the significance level, we have enough grounds to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

Part d

For this case t=-3.6, $\alpha=0.05$

Firstly, we find the degrees of freedom $df=n-1=18-1=17$

Since we are conducting a left-tailed test, the p-value is calculated as:

$p_v =P(t_{17}$

Here, with the p-value being lower than the significance threshold, we can reject the null hypothesis.

tester [3938]

Answer:

$Rate = 1.1/hr$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Start = 23$

$End = 16$

$Hours = 6\frac{1}{2}h$

Required

Calculate the hourly rate

First, we will determine the amount of ice cream that was sold

$Ice\ Cream = 23 - 16$

$Ice\ Cream = 7$

Next, calculate the average hourly rate:

$Rate = Ice\ Cream/Hours$

$Rate = 7/6\frac{1}{2}h$

$Rate = 7/\frac{13}{2}h$

$Rate = 7*\frac{2}{13h}$

$Rate = \frac{14}{13h}$

$Rate = 1.07692307692/hr$

$Rate = 1.1/hr$ -- Approximated

Answer:

8 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

At a ratio of 15:1, for each serving that uses 75 grams of rice, it will need 75/15 = 5 grams of spice. With David having 40 grams of spice, he can prepare ...

40 g/(5 g/serving) = 8 servings
