Answer:

According to the problem,

Cost for each cup = $1.29

Overall cups = 12

Total expense for the cups = 12 x 1.29 = $15.48

Candy cost = $2.49 per cup

Overall candy cups = x

Nut cost = $0.69 per cup

Overall nut cups = y

Equations:

x + y = 12 (since the total cups of nuts and candies must equal 12)

2.49x + 0.69y = 15.48 (the total expense for the 12 cups equals 15.48)

Step 1: Express x in terms of y

x = 12 - y

Step 2: Substitute x in terms of y from step 1 into the second equation

2.49x + 0.69y = 15.48

2.49 (12 - y) + 0.69y = 15.48

29.88 - 2.49y + 0.69y = 15.48

-1.8y = -14.4

y = 14.4/1.8

y = 8

Step 3: Determine x

x + y = 12

x = 12 - y

x = 12 - 8

x = 4

Thus, Yumi needs 4 cups of candy and 8 cups of nuts.

Two thirds of a straight angle
PIT_PIT [12445]

Answer:

Two thirds of a straight angle is 120°

Explanation:

First, we define a straight angle:

A straight angle measures 180°

Now, we need to find two thirds of that straight angle

To compute the fraction, multiply the straight angle's measurement by \frac{2}{3}

Thus:

\frac{2}{3} of a straight angle = \frac{2}{3} * 180 = 120 degrees

Hope this helps:)

Question 1 Show all your work. Indicate clearly the methods you use, because you will be scored on the correctness of your metho
babunello [11817]

Answer:

(a) The 95% confidence interval representing the percentage of the entire U.S. population that would select American football as their preferred television sport is (0.34, 0.40).

(b) Not reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

n = 1000

\hat p = 0.37

(a)

The confidence interval (1 - α)% for proportion p is:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

Where:

\hat p = the sample proportion

n = sample size

z_{\alpha/2} = critical z value.

Calculate the critical value of z for a 95% confidence level as shown:

z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

*Refer to a z-table for the necessary value.

Compute the 95% confidence interval for proportion p as follows:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

=0.37\pm 1.96\times\sqrt{\frac{0.37(1-0.37)}{1000}}

=0.37\pm 0.03\\=(0.34, 0.40)

Thus, the 95% confidence interval indicating the proportion of individuals in the U.S. who might say their preferred sport on TV is American football is (0.34, 0.40).

(b)

Next, we must assess if it's rational to consider that the actual percent of people in the United States who favor American football on television is 33%.

The hypothesis is defined as:

H₀: The portion of the U.S. population claiming American football as their favorite sport on television is 33%, meaning p = 0.33.

Hₐ: The proportion of people in the U.S. whose favorite sport to watch on television is not 33%, or p ≠ 0.33

This hypothesis can be verified using a confidence interval.

The decision rule:

If the (1 - α)% confidence interval contains the null value of the hypothesis, then the null hypothesis is not rejected. If, however, the (1 - α)% confidence interval excludes the null value of the hypothesis, then the null hypothesis is rejected.

<pthe confidence="" interval="" for="" the="" proportion="" of="" all="" u.s.="" individuals="" indicating="" that="" american="" football="" is="" their="" favorite="" sport="" on="" television="">

The confidence interval does encompass the null value of p, which is 0.33.

<pthus the="" null="" hypothesis="" will="" be="" rejected.=""><pin conclusion="" it="" is="">not reasonable to accept that 33% represents the actual percentage of those in the U.S. whose favorite televised sport is American football.

Leona [12618]

Response:

The distance from Endnville to Concord is calculated as 14.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ Westfalls is located 7 miles south of Endnville

∵ Concord is situated 13 miles west of Westfalls

∵ South and West are ⊥

∴ The total distance from Endnville to Concord is √(7)² + (13)²

                                                                      = 14.8 miles

Zina [12379]

Answer:

Step-by-step breakdown:

The necessary formula for this problem is

6(6+x)=5(5+x+3)

which resolves to

6(6+x)=5(8+x)

leading to

36 + 6x = 40 + 5x, and consequently

x = 4

Thus, DG equals 5 + 4 + 3, resulting in 12
