Answer:

Her age is 40 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jerry's age be represented as j

Let Marjorie's age be denoted as m

The first part of the question states:

j = 4 + m/2

For the second equation:

m = 3j - 32

Multiply the first equation by 2 to get:

2j = 8 + m

Leading to m = 2j - 8

Set both equations for m equal to each other:

2j - 8 = 3j - 32

By simplifying, we get:

3j - 2j = 32 - 8

Therefore, j = 24

Now substituting back:

m = 2j - 8

m = 2(24) - 8

Thus, m = 48 - 8

Final result: m = 40

Inessa [9000]
We opt to accept the null hypothesis. Given the following details provided: the Sample mean equals 28.8 miles per gallon, Sample size n is 120, and Alpha α is 0.01 with a sample standard deviation of 6.89 miles per gallon. Initially, we set up the null and alternative hypotheses. Utilizing a two-tailed t-test facilitates this hypothesis testing. By substituting the relevant values we calculate, and eventually conclude that we fail to reject the null hypothesis, endorsing that the average MPG for the Toyota Highlander Hybrid vehicles is indeed 28 miles per gallon.

The perimeter of the school crossing sign is 102 inches what is the length of each side
Leona [9271]
The total perimeter of the school crossing sign measures 102 inches.
To find the length of each side, knowing the number of sides is necessary.
If it has 5 sides, dividing 102 by 5 results in 20.4 inches per side.
If it has 4 sides, dividing 102 by 4 gives a side length of 25.5 inches.
So, the side length depends on how many sides the sign has.

Total boys in class = 14.
To determine:
The various combinations for selecting one girl and one boy.
Solution:
We have,
Total girls = 16
Total boys = 14
Thus,
The total combinations for selecting one girl from 16 girls = 16.
The total combinations for selecting one boy from 14 boys = 14.
Now, the various ways to select one girl and one boy amount to:
Therefore, the total number of combinations is 224.
