Answer:

1.2 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is set up so that the total price is proportional to the price per pound, so to find the proportion you would divide the total cost by the cost per pound. 3.42/2.85 = 1.2, so the answer is 1.2 pounds.

3/8 of a foot = 3/8 x 12/1  or 4  1/2 inches

So our 1/2 inch grows by a factor of 9  because 4 1/2 ÷ 1/2 = 9  Think how many 1/2 dollars are in 4  1/2 dollars.  (Answer is 9)

So our 8 4/9 in the catalog has to grow the same

8  4/9   x 9  = 8  4/9  x 9/1 = 76/9 x 9/1  or 76 inches which is 6 ft 4 inches.
(76 ÷12 = 6 r4)

Examine the steps used to solve the equation.
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

12.5x − 10.2 = 3(2.5x + 4.2) - 6  

Use the distributive property to distribute the 3

12.5x − 10.2 = 7.5x + 12.6 − 6  

Combine like terms

12.5x − 10.2 = 7.5x + 6.6  

Add 10.2 to each side of the equation by using the addition property of equality

12.5x = 7.5x + 16.8

Subtraction 7.5x from each side of the equation by using the subtraction property of equality

5x = 16.8  

Divide by 5 on each side by using the division property of equality

x = 3.36

sammy [17]

Answer:

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

The best answer would be:

A. Z test

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=36670 represent the mean average

\sigma=6362 represent the population standard deviation for the sample  

n=1225 sample size  

\mu_o =37100 represent the value that we want to test  

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is equal or not to 37100, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu =37100  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 37100  

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

The best answer would be:

A. Z test
