Answer:

Grace could have 1.36 pounds, 1.37 pounds, 1.38 pounds or 1.39 pounds of apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a represent pounds of apples.

We have been given that Grace has 1.35 pounds of strawberries. She has more pounds of apples than pounds of strawberries.

This means that a is greater than 1.35. We can represent this information in an inequality as:

a>1.35

We are also told that Grace has 1.4 pounds of bananas. She has fewer pounds of apples than pounds of bananas. This means that a is less than 1.4. We can represent this information in an inequality as:

a

Upon combining both inequalities, we will get:

1.35

Therefore, Grace could have 1.36 pounds, 1.37 pounds, 1.38 pounds or 1.39 pounds of apples.

Which equation represents the line shown on the graph?
Mama L [17]

Hello there,

To find out the equation you use the slope intercept form...

y = mx + b

M is the slope and b is where the line crosses the y-axis...

Now to find the slope you count the distance from two points so...

The distance from (0,2) to (1,5) is 3 units up and 1 unit over.

So the correct answer should be...

y = 3x + 2


Answer: w = 3z + 2


Hope I helped!!

A web-based company has a goal of processing 90 percent of its orders on the same day they are received. If 434 out of the next
Kamila [148]

Answer:

We conclude that a web-based company are not exceeding their goal of 90%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a web-based company has a goal of processing 90 percent of its orders on the same day they are received.

434 out of the next 471 orders are processed on the same day.

Let p = <u><em>proportion of orders processing on the same day they are received.</em></u>

SO, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p \leq 0.90     {means that they are not exceeding their goal of 90%}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_0 : p > 0.90      {means that they are exceeding their goal of 90%}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>One-sample z test for</u> <u>proportions</u>;

                            T.S. =  \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = sample proportion of orders that are processed on the same day = \frac{434}{471} = 0.92

           n = sample of orders = 471

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{0.92-0.90}{\sqrt{\frac{0.92(1-0.92)}{471} } }

                                     =  1.599

The value of z test statistics is 1.599.

<u>Now, at 0.025 significance level the z table gives critical value of 1.96 for right-tailed test.</u>

Since our test statistic is less than the critical value of z as 1.599 < 1.96, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which <u><em>we fail to reject our null hypothesis</em></u>.

Therefore, we conclude that a web-based company are not exceeding their goal of 90%.

6. Problems and Applications Q6 Consider an economy that produces only chocolate bars. In year 1, the quantity produced is 3 bar
natulia [17]

Answer:

Year 1 GDP Deflator is 100%

Year 2 GDP Deflator is 30%

Year 3 GDP Deflator is 14.29%

Inflation Rate between year 2 and year 3 is 50%

The Real GDP growth Rate for Year 2 and year 3 is 110%

Step-by-step explanation:

Year 1  

 Price of chocolate bar is $2 and 3 bars are sold that year so the real GDP is 3 x $2=$6 which we are also given that this year is the nominal base year so the nominal GDP is also $6. GDP is the sum of all market value produced products in an economy. Therefore that’s why we calculated as the price of a chocolate multiplied the number produced. To calculate the GDP Deflator will be as follows:

GDP Deflator= (nominal GDP/Real GDP) x 100

                      = ($6/$6) x 100

                       = 100%  

Year 2

Price of chocolate bars is $4 per bar and 5 bars were produced therefore Real GDP =$4 x 5 = $20, now we will calculate the GDP deflator as we have been told that year  is the nominal year therefore nominal GDP is $6.

GDP Deflator= (nominal GDP/Real GDP) x 100

                       = ($6/$20) x100

                        = 30%

Year 3

Price of chocolate bars is $6 per bar and 7 bars were produced therefore Real GDP =$6 x 7 =$42, now we calculate the GDP deflator as we have been told that year 1 is the nominal year therefore nominal GDP is $6.

GDP Deflator = (nominal GDP/ Real GDP) x 100

                      = ($6/$42)

                       =14.29%

Now we calculate the inflation rate between year 2 and year 3.we use the CPI (consumer price index to get the inflation rate for year 2 ad 3)

Consumer Price Index = (Current price of bar/previous price of bar) x 100 formula for CPI

                      = ($6/$4) x 100= 150%-100%

                         = 50% is the inflation rate as the consumer price gave us a positive value.

Now we compute the real GDP growth rate between year 2 and year 3

Real GDP growth rate = [  (current Real GDP- Previous Real GDP)/Previous Real GDP] x 100

                                      = ($42-$20)/$20

                                       = 110% so real GDP grew by 110% from year 2 to year 3.

The crew of apollo 17 consisted of 2 pilots and a geologist. Suppose that nasa had actually trained 9 pilots and 4 geologists as
Troyanec [42]

They could have assembled total 336 different possible crews.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Total number of trained pilots is 9 and geologists is 4.

The crew should be consisted of 2 pilots and 1 geologist. That means, <u>2 pilots are chosen from total 9 and 1 geologist is chosen from total 4</u>.

Number of ways for choosing 2 pilots from 9 = ^9C_{3} =84 and

Number of ways for choosing 1 geologist from 4 =^4C_{1}= 4

So, the total possible number of different crews they could have assembled =84*4= 336

Troyanec [42]
The domain is the x values

y = 2 - x

when x = -3
y = 2 - (-3)
y = 2 + 3
y = 5....so ur points are (-3,5)

when x = -2
y = 2 - (-2)
y = 2 + 2
y = 4....so ur points are (-2,4)

when x = -1
y = 2 - (-1)
y = 2 + 1
y = 3...so ur points are (-1,3)

when x = 0
y = 2 - 0
y = 2....so ur points are (0,2)

when x = 1
y = 2 - 1
y = 1...so ur point are (1,1)

so basically, u plot all of those points
