Answer: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of mixture (6%fat) in cup is 100cc

x cc be the volume of cream (18% fat) in the mixture.

∴

(100−x) cc be the volume of milk (2% fat) in the mixture.

x * 0.18+(100−x) * 0.02=100

⋅0.06 or 0.18x − 0.02x = 6−2 or 0.16x

= 4 or x=25 cc = 25%

Which equation correctly uses point (–2, –6) to write the equation of this line in point-slope form? Y – 6 = y minus 6 equals St
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Part 1) y+6=\frac{2}{5}(x+2)

Part 2) y+6=\frac{5}{2}(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in point slope form is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we're going to analyze two cases

<em>First case</em>

Point\ (-2,-6)

slope\ m=\frac{2}{5}

substitute

y+6=\frac{2}{5}(x+2)

therefore

y plus 6 equals StartFraction 2 Over 5 EndFraction left-parenthesis x plus 2 right parenthesis

<em>Second  case</em>

Point\ (-2,-6)

slope\ m=\frac{5}{2}

substitute

y+6=\frac{5}{2}(x+2)

therefore

y plus 6 equals StartFraction 5 Over 2 EndFraction left-parenthesis x plus 2 right parenthesis

A group of kids just finished trick-or-treating. The number of pieces of candy collected by each of the 5 kids
NemiM [27]

Answer:

s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}

s =\sqrt{\frac{(31-35)^2 +(33-35)^2 +(36-35)^2 +(41-35)^2 +(34-35)^2}{5-1}} =3.808

And the answer for this case would be :

s= 3.81 after round the value

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data set given:

31, 33, 36, 41, 34

If we want to find the standard deviation we need to find first the sample mean with this formula:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

And replacing we got:

\bar X = \frac{31+33+36+41+34}{5}= \frac{175}{5}= 35

Now we can find the sampel deviation with this formula:

s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}

And replacing we got:

s =\sqrt{\frac{(31-35)^2 +(33-35)^2 +(36-35)^2 +(41-35)^2 +(34-35)^2}{5-1}} =3.808

And the answer for this case would be :

s= 3.81 after round the value

Klio2033 [76]

Answer: 1.9166

Step-by-step explanation:

Let \mu be the population mean.

By considering the given description, we have

\mu=75

n=20

\overline{x}=78

s=7

Since, the population standard deviation is  unknown , so we use t-test.

Test statistic : t=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

i.e . t=\dfrac{78-75}{\dfrac{7}{\sqrt{20}}}=1.916629695

\approx1.9166  [Rounded to four decimal places.]

Hence, the value of the t-test statistic : 1.9166
