Answer: IX - 4I ≤ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In the numer line we can see that our possible values of x are in the range:

0 ≤ x ≤ 8

And we want to find an absolute value equation such that this set is the set of possible solutions.

An example can be:

IX - 4I ≤ 4

To construct this, we first find the midpoint M of our set, in this case is 4.

Then we write:

Ix - MI ≤ IMI

Notice that i am using the minor and equal sign, this is because the black dots means that the values x = 0 and x = 8 are included, if the dots were empty dots, it would be an open set and we should use the < > signs.

On the first day a total of 40 items were sold for $356. Define the variables and write a system of equations to find the number

Alina [70]

<h3><u><em>Question:</em></u></h3>

On the first day, a total of 40 items were sold for $356. Pies cost $10 and cakes cost $8. Define the variables, write a system of equations to find the number of cakes and pies sold, and state how many pies were sold.

<h3><em><u>Answer:</u></em></h3>

The variables are defined as:

"c" represent the number of cakes sold and "p" represent the number of pies sold

The system of equations used are:

c + p = 40 and 8c + 10p = 356

18 pies and 22 cakes were sold

<h3><em><u>Solution:</u></em></h3>

Let "c" represent the number of cakes sold

Let "p" represent the number of pies sold

Cost of 1 pie = $ 10

Cost of 1 cake = $ 8

Given that total of 40 items were sold

number of cakes + number of pies = 40

c + p = 40 ------ eqn 1

<u><em>Given items were sold for $356</em></u>

number of cakes sold x Cost of 1 cake + number of pies sold x Cost of 1 cake = 356

$c \times 8 + p \times 10 = 356$

8c + 10p = 356 ----- eqn 2

<u><em>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</em></u>

From eqn 1,

p = 40 - c ---- eqn 3

Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2

8c + 10(40 - c) = 356

8c + 400 - 10c = 356

-2c = - 44

c = 22

<em>Substitute c = 22 in eqn 3</em>

p = 40 - c

p = 40 - 22

p = 18

Thus 18 pies and 22 cakes were sold

How are the decimals 0.009 and 0.09 related?

Valentin [98]

0.09 is 10 times 0.009 because if u multiply and number by 10 the decimal point would go to the right

The state of Wisconsin would like to understand the fraction of its adult residents that consumed alcohol in the last year, spec

leonid [27]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

What we should do is the following:

First, from the random sample of 852 researchers, it is necessary to obtain the number of adult residents who consumed alcohol in the past year.

After the above, we must calculate the proportion of adult residents who consumed alcohol in the last year by dividing the number of adult residents who consumed alcohol in the last year by 852.

After this, we must compare if the proportion is exactly 70% or different from it.

We have the following hypotheses:

Null Hypothesis: The proportion of adult residents who consumed alcohol in the last year in the state of Wisconsin is exactly 70%

Alternative hypothesis: The proportion of adult residents who consumed alcohol in the last year in the state of Wisconsin is not equal to 70%
