hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment..

Answer:

h(x)=9x-13

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find out what h(x) is. We know what h(x) is equal to, which is

h(x)= f(x)+g(x)

We know that f(x)=2x-1 and g(x)=7x-12. Substitute the expressions in.

h(x)= (2x-1)+(7x-12)

Simplify by combining like terms. Add all the terms with a variable (x), then all the terms without a variable, or constants.

h(x)=(2x+7x)+(-1+-12)

Add 2x and 7x.

h(x)=(2+7)(x)+(-1+-12)  

h(x)= 9x+(-1+-12)

Add -1 and -12.

h(x)= 9x+(-13)

h(x)=9x-13

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line 2y – 3x = 8?

Answers

Answer:

Here,

m => slopec => intercept

In this equation ,

[tex]2y - 3x = 8[/tex]

to find the value of m or the value of slope we have to solve for y

Let's solve,

[tex]2y - 3x = 8 \\ 2y = 8 + 3x \\ \frac{2y}{2} = \frac{8 + 3x}{2} \\ y = 4 + \frac{3x}{2} \\ y = \frac{3x}{2} + 4[/tex]

1, 3, 11, 43, 171, 683, what's next in this sequence?

Answers

Answer:

2731

Step-by-step explanation:

3 - 1 = 2 = 2^1

11 - 3 = 8 = 2^3

43 - 11 = 32 = 2^5

171 - 43 = 128 = 2^7

683 - 171 = 512 = 2^9

Following the pattern, add 2^11 to 683.

683 + 2^11 = 683 + 2048 = 2731

Hi,

We have the sequence 1 , 3 , 11 , 43 , __.

Let us say  [tex]a_{1}=1 , a_{2}=3 , a_{3}=11 , a_{4}=43[/tex]  and it is required to find out [tex]a_{5}[/tex] .

As, we can see the pattern from the given four terms that,

[tex]a_{2}=a_{1}+2[/tex] i.e. [tex]a_{2}=a_{1}+2^{1}[/tex]

[tex]a_{3}=a_{2}+8[/tex] i.e. [tex]a_{3}=a_{1}+2^{3}[/tex]

[tex]a_{4}=a_{3}+32[/tex] i.e. [tex]a_{4}=a_{1}+2^{5}[/tex]

Since, the next term is obtained by adding the previous terms by odd powers of two.

Therefore, [tex]a_{5}=a_{4}+2^{7}[/tex] i.e. [tex]a_{5}=a_{4}+128[/tex] i.e [tex]a_{5}=43+128[/tex] i.e. [tex]a_{5}=171[/tex]

So, [tex]a_{5}=171.[/tex]

Hence, the next term of the sequence is 171.

Let us say  [tex]a_{1}=1 , a_{2}=3 , a_{3}=11 , a_{4}=43[/tex], [tex]a_{5}[/tex] [tex]= 683[/tex] and it is required to find out [tex]a_{6}[/tex].

Therefore, [tex]a_{6}=a_{5}+2^{9}[/tex] i.e. [tex]a_{6}=a_{5}+512[/tex] i.e [tex]a_{6}=683+512[/tex] i.e. [tex]a_{6}=1195[/tex]

So, [tex]a_{6}=1195.[/tex]

Hence, the next term of the sequence is 1195.

The formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit is F=9/5C+32. Convert 45°F to

Answers

Answer:

About 7 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]45=9/5C+32 \\\\13=9/5C \\\\C\approx 7[/tex]

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The answer is 7 °C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula given, we can see that we are inputting a Fahrenheit value to solve for a Celsius value. Therefore, we just need to plug it in to the formula.

[tex]45 = \frac{9}{5}C +32[/tex].

Now, we can subtract 32 from both sides to isolate [tex]\frac{9}{5} C[/tex] from the rest of the equation. This gives us [tex]13 = \frac{9}{5} C[/tex].

Now, we just multiply by the reciprocal of the fraction in front of C to make it vanish and also apply that process to 13. Therefore, we do this:

[tex]\frac{5}{9} * 13 = 7.22222[/tex]

Therefore, C ≈ 7° because of rounding requirements.

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the average hourly wage of all information system managers is (39.14,42.36)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the 95% confidence interval for the average hourly wage we would have to calculate first the margin of error as follows:

ME=t0.05/2,n-1s/√n

for n=75, t0.025,74=1.993

Therefore, ME=1.993*7/√75

ME=1.61

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval for the average hourly income of all syatem manager would be as follows:

(X-ME,X+ME)=(40.75-1.61,40.75+1.61)

=(39.14,42.36)

Jonathan has 30 chocolates. He gives some chocolates to his friend David. He then gives Sarah half the number of chocolates that he gave David and gives Lily two-thirds of what he gave David. After giving away the chocolates, Jonathan has 4 chocolates left. If the number of chocolates Jonathan gives David is x, which equation represents the situation? How many solutions does this equation have?

Answers

Answer:

equation which represent this situation is 30 - 13x/6 =4

Solution to this equation is x = 12

As we see that there is one equation and degree of x is one thus there is one solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of chocolates with Jonathan = 30

 no. of chocolates given to David IS x

Given

He then gives Sarah half the number of chocolates that he gave David

no. of chocolates given to Sarah = 1/2 of no. of chocolates given to David

no. of chocolates given to Sarah = 1/2 of x = x/2

Again given

gives Lily two-thirds of what he gave David. After giving away the chocolates

no. of chocolates given to Lily = 2/3 of no. of chocolates given to David

no. of chocolates given to Lily = 2/3 of x = 2x/3

Total no. of chocolates given to David , Sarah and lily = x+x/2+2x/3

LCM of 2 and 3 is 6

                   

Total no. of chocolates given to David , Sarah and lily =( 6x + 3x+ 4x)/6

Total no. of chocolates given to David , Sarah and lily =13x/6

Now, additional information in the problem is

After giving away the chocolates, Jonathan has 4 chocolates left

Chocolate left with Jonathan = Total no. of chocolates with Jonathan  - Total no. of chocolates given to David , Sarah and lily

4 = 30 - 13x/6

=> 4 + 13x/6  = 30

=> 13x/6 = 30-4 = 26

=> x = 26*6/13 = 2*6 =12

Thus, equation which represent this situation is 30 - 13x/6 =4

Solution to this equation is x = 12

As we see that there is one equation and degree of x is one thus there is one solution.

If you spin the spinner 11 times, what is the best prediction possible for the number of times it will land on pink?

Answers

If we spin the spinner 11 times, 4 is the best prediction possible for the number of times it will land on pink.

To calculate the expected value of a random variable, simply multiply it with the respective probability and sum the respective products.

Given, total number of outcomes=11.

Total number of pink colored spin= 4

Probability of a spin resulting pink color=4/11

Expected number of spins of pink color= [tex]\sum xp(x)[/tex]

=(1×4/11)+(2×4/11)+(3×4/11)+(4×4/11)

=4/11(1+2+3+4)

=40/11

=3.63 ≈ 4

Thus, the best prediction possible for the number of times it will land on pink is 4.

A manager bought 12 pounds of peanuts for $30. He wants to mix $5 per pound cashews with the peanuts to get a batch of mixed nuts that is worth $4 per pound. How many pounds of cashews are needed

Answers

Answer:

18 pounds of cashews are needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

A manager bought 12 pounds of peanuts for $30.

Price of peanut per pound P = $30/12 = $2.5

Price of cashew per pound C = $5

Price of mixed nut per pound M = $4

Let x represent the proportion of peanut in the mixed nut.

The proportion of cashew will then be y = (1-x), so;

xP + (1-x)C = M

Substituting the values;

x(2.5) + (1-x)5 = 4

2.5x + 5 -5x = 4

2.5x - 5x = 4 -5

-2.5x = -1

x = 1/2.5 = 0.4

Proportion of cashew is;

y = 1-x = 1-0.4 = 0.6

For 12 pounds of peanut the corresponding pounds of cashew needed is;

A = 12/x × y

A = 12/0.4 × 0.6 = 18 pounds

18 pounds of cashews are needed.

what set of Transformations could be applied to rectangle ABCD to create A'B'C'D'?​

Answers

Answer:  (b) reflected over the y-axis and rotated 180°

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplest transformation is a reflection over the x-axis.

Reflection over the x-axis is the same as reflected over the y-axis and rotating 180°.

Reflection over y -axis changes the sign of the x-coordinate

Z = (x, y)   →     Z' = (-x, y)

Rotation of 180° changes the signs for both the x- and y-coordinates.

Z' = (-x, y)    →   Z' = (x, -y)

2x + 2 = 5x – 10
answer plssssss

Answers

Answer:

Brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2 = 5x-10

3x=12

x=4

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2 = 5x - 10

Subtract 2x from both sides

2x + 2 - 2x = 5x - 10 - 2x

2 = 3x - 10

Add 10 to both sides

2+10 = 3x - 10 + 10

12 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

12/3 = 3x/3

4 = x

x = 4

An experiment was conducted to record the jumping distances of paper frogs made from construction paper. Based on the sample, the corresponding 95% confidence interval for the mean jumping distance is (8.8104, 11.1248)cm. What is the corresponding 98% confidence interval for the mean jumping distance?

Answers

Answer:

[tex] 9.9676 - 2.326*0.5904 =8.594[/tex]

[tex] 9.9676 + 2.326*0.5904 =11.341[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation

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

[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

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)

For this case the 9% confidence interval is given by:

[tex] 8.8104 \leq \mu \leq 11.1248[/tex]

We can calculate the mean with the following:

[tex]\bar X = \frac{8.8104 +11.1248}{2}= 9.9676[/tex]

And we can find the margin of error with:

[tex] ME= \frac{11.1248- 8.8104}{2}= 1.1572[/tex]

The margin of error for this case is given by:

[tex] ME = t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = t_{\alpha/2} SE[/tex]

And we can solve for the standard error:

[tex] SE = \frac{ME}{t_{\alpha/2}}[/tex]

The critical value for 95% confidence using the normal standard distribution is approximately 1.96 and replacing we got:

[tex] SE = \frac{1.1572}{1.96}= 0.5904[/tex]

Now for the 98% confidence interval the significance is [tex]\alpha=1-0.98= 0.02[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 = 0.01[/tex] the critical value would be 2.326 and then the confidence interval would be:

[tex] 9.9676 - 2.326*0.5904 =8.594[/tex]

[tex] 9.9676 + 2.326*0.5904 =11.341[/tex]

solve for x and y x-2y=3 2x+4=18

Answers

Answer:

y=2 and x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

x-2y=3         equation 1

2x+4=18        equation 2    

first we will find the value of x by using equation 2

2x+4=18

subtracting 4 on both sides to find the value of x

2x+4-4=18-4

2x=14

dividing 2 on both sides

2x/2=14/2

x=7

putting the value of x in equation 1

(7)-2y=3

subtracting 7 on both sides

7-7-2y=3-7

-2y=-4

dividing -2 on both sides

y=2

The time a student sleeps per night has a distribution with mean 6.3 hours and a standard deviation of 0.6 hours. Find the probability that average sleeping time for a randomly selected sample of 42 students is more than 6.5 hours per night. Answer: (round to 4 decimal places)

Answers

Answer:

0.0154 = 1.54% probability that average sleeping time for a randomly selected sample of 42 students is more than 6.5 hours per night.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 6.3, \sigma = 0.6, n = 42, s = \frac{0.6}{\sqrt{42}} = 0.0926[/tex]

Find the probability that average sleeping time for a randomly selected sample of 42 students is more than 6.5 hours per night.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 6.5.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{6.5 - 6.3}{0.0926}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.16[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.16[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9846

1 - 0.9846 = 0.0154

So

0.0154 = 1.54% probability that average sleeping time for a randomly selected sample of 42 students is more than 6.5 hours per night.

Nikki used the calculations shown to determine whether a carton of 12 eggs or a carton of 18 eggs was the better buy.

A carton of 12 eggs cost $2.39, and a carton of 18 eggs cost $3.39. Unit price of the 12-egg carton = ($2.39)(12 eggs) = $28.68 per egg Unit price of the 18-egg carton = ($3.39)(18 eggs) = $61.02 per egg The 12-egg carton has the lower unit cost, so it is the better buy.

What was her first error?

A. She should have divided the cost of the carton by the number of eggs to find the price per egg.
B. She should have divided the number of eggs by the cost of the carton to find the price per egg.
C. She made a computational error when multiplying to find the unit price of the two cartons.
D She made an error in choosing the eggs with the lower unit cost to be the better buy.

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Her first error is,

C. She made a computational error when multiplying to find the unit price of the two cartons.

We have to given that,

Nikki used the calculations shown to determine whether a carton of 12 eggs or a carton of 18 eggs was the better buy.

Here, A carton of 12 eggs cost $2.39, and a carton of 18 eggs cost $3.39.

And, A carton of 12 eggs cost $2.39, and a carton of 18 eggs cost $3.39.

Unit price of the 12-egg carton = ($2.39)(12 eggs) = $28.68 per egg

Unit price of the 18-egg carton = ($3.39)(18 eggs) = $61.02 per egg

The 12-egg carton has the lower unit cost, so it is the better buy.

Here, It's first error is,

She made a computational error when multiplying to find the unit price of the two cartons.

Instead of dividing the cost of the 18-egg carton by the number of eggs, she multiplied the cost by 18, which resulted in an incorrect unit price.

Hence, It's first error is,

She made a computational error when multiplying to find the unit price of the two cartons.
