The equation that represents the canned goods order is 24x + 64y = 384, where x = number of minutes spent producing fruit cans,

and y = number of minutes producing vegetable cans. If the vegetable assembly line runs for 3 minutes, how many minutes would the fruit assembly line need to run to complete the order of 384 cans? Explain.

Answer: 8 minutes


Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation: 24x + 64y = 384, that represents the canned goods order .

where x = number of minutes spent producing fruit cans,

and y = number of minutes producing vegetable cans.

If the vegetable assembly line runs for 3 minutes, then put y=3 in equation we get

24x+64(3)=384\\\Rightarrow24x+192=384\\\Rightarrow24x=384-192\\\Rightarrow24x=192\\\Rightarrow\ x=\frac{192}{24}\\\Rightarrow\ x=8

Therefore,  the fruit assembly line need to run to complete the order of 384 cans in 18 minutes.

Answer:

No. The last ratio is not written with the values in the same position as the others. It should be 50

10

to be consistent. If the ratio were written this way, then the ratios would all be equivalent . The relationship is proportional.

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are not told what to find, we can as well find the time taken by the rocket to reach its maximum height as shown

The rocket reaches its maximum height when the velocity is zero

v = dh/dt

v = -32t+64

Since v = 0 at maximum height

0 = -32t+64

32t = 64

t = 64/32

t = 2secs

Hence the rocket reaches the maximum height after 2secs

Which best describes the transformation that occurs from the graph of f(x) = x2 to g(x) = (x – 2)2 + 3?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

A. right 2, up 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

The function f(x) = x^2 is transformed to g(x) =(x- 2)^2+3.

We see that,

The function f(x) is translated 2 units to the right and 3 units upwards to obtain the function g(x).

So, the correct transformation is 'right 2, up 3'.

Hence, option A is correct.

It is believed that as many as 23% of adults over 50 never graduated from high school. We wish to see if this percentage is the
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

1)  n=48  

2) n=298

3) n=426

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

p represent the real population proportion of interest

\hat p represent the estimated proportion for the sample

n is the sample size required (variable of interest)

z represent the critical value for the margin of error

The population proportion have the following distribution  

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})  

Part 1

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 90% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.90=0.10 and \alpha/2 =0.05. And the critical value would be given by:  

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.64, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.64  

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}} (a)  

And on this case we have that ME =\pm 0.1 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2} (b)

We can assume that the estimated proportion is 0.23 for the 25 to 30 group. And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:  

n=\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{(\frac{0.1}{1.64})^2}=47.63  

And rounded up we have that n=48  

Part 2

The margin of error on this case changes to 0.04 so if we use the same formula but changing the value for ME we got:

n=\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{(\frac{0.04}{1.64})^2}=297.7  

And rounded up we have that n=298  

Part 3

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025. And the critical value would be given by:  

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96  

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}} (a)  

And on this case we have that ME =\pm 0.04 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2} (b)

We can assume that the estimated proportion is 0.23 for the 25 to 30 group. And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:  

n=\frac{0.23(1-0.23)}{(\frac{0.04}{1.96})^2}=425.22  

And rounded up we have that n=426

Ed is 7 years older than Ted. Ed’s age is also 3/4 times Ted’s age. How old are Ed and Ted?
svetlana [45]
Let Ted be x.

Ed is 7 years older =  x  + 7

Ed = (3/4)Ted

(x + 7) = (3/4)x

x + 7 = 3x/4

x - 3x/4 = -7

x/4 = -7

x = -28,           Ted = -28 years.

(x + 7) = -28 + 7 = -21,      Ed = -21 years

Goodness. We had negative numbers for the ages, well does that make sense?  No it doesn't.

Our answer is correct. But the sense in the question is lacking. The question has been wrongly set.

<span>We might assume negative ages to mean before they came into the world, before birth! </span>
