Answer:

Option B If Justin buys the hat and the jeans, solving the inequality $12x+65\leq 110$ for x, will tell him the maximum number of bags of socks he can buy

Option D. If Justin buys the hat, jeans, and the maximum number of bags of socks, he will have enough money left to buy a belt that is on sale for $7.99

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of bags of socks

we know that

The number of bags of socks that Justin can buy multiplied by it cost, plus the cost of the hat plus the cost of a pair of jeans, must be at most $110

The inequality that represent this situation is

$12x+25+40\leq 110$

solve for x

Combine like terms left side

$12x+65\leq 110$

subtract 65 both sides

$12x\leq 45$

Divide by 12 both sides

$x\leq 3.75$

The maximum number of bags of socks is 3

If Justin buys the hat but not the jeans, then the inequality that represent this situation is

$12x+25\leq 110$

Verify each statement

case A) If x is the number of bags of socks Justin can buy, then the inequality representing this situation is x < 3

The statement is false

The inequality that represent this situation is $x\leq 3.75$

The maximum number of bags of socks is 3

case B) If Justin buys the hat and the jeans, solving the inequality $12x+65\leq 110$ for x, will tell him the maximum number of bags of socks he can buy

The statement is true

see the explanation

case C) If Justin buys the hat but not the jeans, solving the inequality $12x+40\leq 110$ for x will tell him the maximum number of bags of socks he can buy

The statement is false

Because the inequality will be $12x+25\leq 110$

case D) If Justin buys the hat, jeans, and the maximum number of bags of socks, he will have enough money left to buy a belt that is on sale for $7.99

The statement is true

Because

The total cost is

$12(3)+25+40=\$101$

The amount of money left is $\$110-\$101=\$9$

$\$9 > \$7.99$

therefore

If Justin buys the hat, jeans, and the maximum number of bags of socks, he will have enough money left to buy a belt

1. The following are the number of hours that 10 police officers have spent being trained in how to handle encounters with peopl

dusya [7]

Answer:

$Range = 16$

$Inter\ Quartile\ Range = 6.75$

$Variance = 20.44$

$Standard\ Deviation = 4.52$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4, 17, 12, 9, 6, 10, 1, 5, 9, 3

Calculating the range;

$Range = Highest - Lowest$

From the given data;

Highest = 17 and Lowest = 1

Hence;

$Range = 17 - 1$

$Range = 16$

Calculating the Inter-quartile Range

Inter quartile range (IQR) is calculates as thus

$IQR = Q_3 - Q_1$

Where

Q3 = Upper Quartile and Q1 = Lower Quartile

Start by arranging the data in ascending order

1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 9, 10, 12, 17

N = Number of data; N = 10

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Calculating Q3

$Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(N+1) th\ item$

Substitute 10 for N

$Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(10+1) th\ item$

$Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(11) th\ item$

$Q_3 = \frac{33}{4} th\ item$

$Q_3 = 8.25 th\ item$

Express 8.25 as 8 + 0.25

$Q_3 = (8 + 0.25) th\ item$

$Q_3 = 8th\ item + 0.25 th\ item$

Express 0.25 as fraction

$Q_3 = 8th\ item +\frac{1}{4} th\ item$

$Q_3 = 8th\ item +\frac{1}{4} (9th\ item - 8th\ item)$

From the arranged data;

$8th\ item = 10$ and $9th\ item = 12$

$Q_3 = 8th\ item +\frac{1}{4} (9th\ item - 8th\ item)$

$Q_3 = 10 +\frac{1}{4} (12 - 10)$

$Q_3 = 10 +\frac{1}{4} (2)$

$Q_3 = 10 +0.5$

$Q_3 = 10.5$

Calculating Q1

$Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(N+1) th\ item$

Substitute 10 for N

$Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(10+1) th\ item$

$Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(11) th\ item$

$Q_1 = \frac{11}{4} th\ item$

$Q_1 = 2.75 th\ item$

Express 2.75 as 2 + 0.75

$Q_1 = (2 + 0.75) th\ item$

$Q_1 = 2nd\ item + 0.75 th\ item$

Express 0.75 as fraction

$Q_1 = 2nd\ item +\frac{3}{4} th\ item$

$Q_1 = 2nd\ item +\frac{3}{4} (3rd\ item - 2nd\ item)$

From the arranged data;

$2nd\ item = 3$ and $3rd\ item = 4$

$Q_1 = 3 +\frac{3}{4} (4 - 3)$

$Q_1 = 3 +\frac{3}{4} (1)$

$Q_1 = 3 +0.75$

$Q_1 = 3 .75$

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Recall that

$IQR = Q_3 - Q_1$

$IQR = 10.5 - 3.75$

$IQR = 6.75$

Calculating Variance

Start by calculating the mean

$Mean = \frac{1+3+4+5+6+9+9+10+12+17}{10}$

$Mean = \frac{76}{10}$

$Mean = 7.6$

Subtract the mean from each data, then square the result

$(1 - 7.6)^2 = (-6.6)^2 = 43.56$

$(3 - 7.6)^2 = (-4.6)^2 = 21.16$

$(4 - 7.6)^2 = (-3.6)^2 = 12.96$

$(5 - 7.6)^2 = (-2.6)^2 = 6.76$

$(6 - 7.6)^2 = (-1.6)^2 = 2.56$

$(9 - 7.6)^2 = (1.4)^2 = 1.96$

$(10 - 7.6)^2 = (2.4)^2 = 5.76$

$(12 - 7.6)^2 = (4.4)^2 = 19.36$

$(17 - 7.6)^2 = (9.4)^2 = 88.36$

Sum the result

$43.56 + 21.16 + 12.96 + 6.76 + 2.56 + 1.96 + 1.96 + 5.76 + 19.36 + 88.36 = 204.4$

Divide by number of observation;

$Variance = \frac{204.4}{10}$

$Variance = 20.44$

Calculating Standard Deviation (SD)

$SD = \sqrt{Variance}$

$SD = \sqrt{20.44}$

$SD = 4.52$ (Approximated)

A trust fund worth $25,000 is invested in two different portfolios, this year, one portfolio is expected to earn 5.25% interest

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The amount of money that should be invested at the rate of 5.25% is $12,000 and the amount money that should be invested at the rate of 4% is $13,000

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

$I=P(rt)$

where

I is the Final Interest Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest

t is Number of Time Periods

Let

x ------> the amount of money that should be invested at the rate of 5.25%

25,000-x -----> the amount money that should be invested at the rate of 4%

in this problem we have

$t=1\ year\\ P_1=\$x\\P_2=\$(25,000-x)\\r_1=0.0525\\r_2=0.04\\I=\$1,150$

substitute in the formula above

$I=P_1(r_1t)+P_2(r_2t)$

$1,150=x(0.0525*1)+(25,000-x)(0.04*1)$

Solve for x

$1,150=0.0525x+1,000-0.04x$

$0.0525x-0.04x=1,150-1,000$

$0.0125x=150$

$x=\$12,000$

$|$25,000-x=\$13,000$

therefore

The amount of money that should be invested at the rate of 5.25% is $12,000 and the amount money that should be invested at the rate of 4% is $13,000
