Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent the information provided using an equation

y = 0.75(x - 1) + 2

In this equation, y stands for the total charge while x represents the number of hours

If Nate only has $5 available, substituting that value for y will allow us to solve for x

5 = 0.75(x - 1) + 2

3 = 0.75(x - 1)

4 = x - 1

5 = x

Nate can park for 5 hours

Based on sales over a six-month period, the five top-selling compact cars are Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, Hyundai Elantra, Honda Ci
tester [10806]
Hi! The goal of the Chi-Square Goodness of Fit test is to determine if observed frequencies of a categorical variable align with the expected historical or theoretical values in the population. Having the sales proportions of the top-five compact cars, we compare them against 400 compact car sales data from Chicago to see if there are discrepancies. Specifically, we have: - Chevy Cruze 24% ⟹ P(CC) = 0.24 - Ford Focus 21% ⟹ P(FF) = 0.21 - Hyundai Elantra 20% ⟹ P(HE) = 0.20 - Honda Civic 18% ⟹ P(HC) = 0.18 - Toyota Corolla 17% ⟹ P(TC) = 0.17 The hypotheses established are: H₀: P(CC) = 0.24; P(FF) = 0.21; P(HE) = 0.20; P(HC) = 0.18; P(TC) = 0.17 H₁: There is a discrepancy between expected and observed outcomes. With α set at 0.05, the statistic calculated is based on Oi (observed frequency) and Ei (expected frequency). The initial step involves calculating expected frequencies using: Ei = n * Pi, where Pi is the theoretical proportion for each category stated in the null hypothesis. The test conducted is right-tailed, and so is the p-value, calculated as: P(X²₄ ≥ 11.23) = 1 - P(X²₄ < 11.23) = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02. Since the p-value is lower than α, we reject the null hypothesis, indicating that Chicago's market shares for the five compact cars differ from those reported by Motor Trend.

tester [10806]

Response:

Jack's weight on the moon will be 26.52 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 156 (Weight on Earth)

y = 0.17 (Moon's gravity)

z = Your weight on the moon

x * y = z

156 * 0.17 = 26.52

Jack will weigh 26.52 pounds.

A small town's phone numbers either begin 373 or 377. How many phone numbers are available?
babunello [10289]
There are a total of 20,000 available numbers. To ascertain how many phone numbers are available, the number of digits in each number must be known. Here, I will assume each number has 7 digits. This leads to the format starting with either 373XXXX or 377XXXX, where each X can be any digit from 0 to 9. This results in 10 options for each X. Therefore, there are 10×10×10×10 = 10,000 distinct phone numbers starting with 373 and another 10,000 with 377, totaling 20,000 numbers.

Given the equation −4Square root of x minus 3 = 12, solve for x and identify if it is an extraneous solution.
Inessa [11169]

Answer:

The provided radical equation has no solution.

x = 225/16 is not a valid solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is  

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

Squaring both sides

Divide both sides by 16

Check by substituting the value of x back into the original equation to confirm the extraneous solution.

 

Since -18 is not equal to 12, thus the value of x fails to satisfy the equation.

Consequently, x = 225/16 is an extraneous solution.
