Answer:

10\frac{1}{2} inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a praying mantis at the right is 10.5 centimeters long. We are asked to represent the given length as a mixed number.

We know that a mixed number consists an integer and a fraction. We can represent our given number as:

10.5\text{ cm}=10+0.5\text{ cm}

10.5\text{ cm}=10+0.5\times\frac{10}{10}\text{ cm}

10.5\text{ cm}=10+\frac{5}{10}\text{ cm}

10.5\text{ cm}=10+\frac{1}{2}\text{ cm}

10.5\text{ cm}=10\frac{1}{2}\text{ cm}

Therefore, the mixed number 10\frac{1}{2} represents the given length.

Let p denote the proportion of students at a particular university that use the fitness center on campus on a regular basis. For
9966 [12]

Answer:

a) P-value = 0.0968

b) P-value = 0.2207

c) P-value = 0.0239

d) P-value = 0.0040

e) P-value = 0.5636

Step-by-step explanation:

As the hypothesis are defined with a ">" sign, instead of an "≠", the test is right-tailed.

For this type of test, the P-value is defined as:

P-value=P(z>z^*)

being z* the value for each test statistic.

The probability P is calculated from the standard normal distribution.

Then, we can calculate for each case:

(a) 1.30

P-value=P(z>1.30) = 0.0968

(b) 0.77

P-value=P(z>0.77) = 0.2207

(c) 1.98

P-value=P(z>1.98) = 0.0239

(d) 2.65

P-value=P(z>2.65) = 0.0040

(e) −0.16

P-value=P(z>-0.16) = 0.5636

You have a budget of $48. You want to buy fruit and granola bars. Fruit costs $4 per pound, and the granola bars are $1 each. Yo
zzz [600]

1)Define the variables you will use in your model.

Let

x------->total pounds of the fruit

y-------> the total number of granola bars

TC----> total cost

Tf------> total cost of the fruit

Tg----> total cost of the granola bars

2) Write an inequality representing the total cost of your purchase. (3 points)

a. Each pound of fruit costs $4. Write an expression that shows the total cost of the fruit. Use the variable you identified in question 1

Tf=4*x

b. Each granola bar costs $1. Write an expression that shows the total cost of the granola bars. Use the variable you identified in question 1.

Tg=1*y--------> Tg=y

c. Combine the expressions from parts a and b to write an expression for the total cost. Then use this expression to write an inequality that compares the total cost with the amount you have to spend.

TC=Tf+Tg

TC=4*x+y

inequality-------> 4x+y \leq 48

3. Write the inequality that models the number of granola bars you need to buy.

You need at least 10 granola bars

so

y\geq 10

4. Describe in words what each of your inequalities means

inequality 1

4x+y \leq 48

the total cost of fruits plus the total cost of granola bars must be less than or equal to 48 dollars

inequality 2

y\geq 10

5. Graph your system of inequalities.

using a graph tool

see the attached figure

6. Identify one point on the graph that represents a viable solution to the problem, and then identify one point that does not represent a viable solution.

Let

A-------> one point on the graph that represents a viable solution

B-------> one point on the graph that does not represent a viable solution

A(4,20)

x=4-------> total pounds of the fruit

y=20------> the total number of granola bars

check point A

substitute the values of x and y in the inequality 1

4x+y \leq 48

4*4+20\leq 48\\ 36\leq 48-------> is ok

substitute the values of x and y in the inequality 2

y\geq 10

20\geq 10--------> is ok

the point A represents a viable solution, because satisfies both inequalities

B(10,30)

x=10-------> total pounds of the fruit

y=30------> the total number of granola bars

check point B

substitute the values of x and y in the inequality 1

4x+y \leq 48

4*10+30\leq 48\\ 70\leq 48-------> is not a viable solution

substitute the values of x and y in the inequality 2

y\geq 10

30\geq 10--------> is ok

the point B is not a viable solution because does not satisfy the inequality 1
