found that Mr Han is 36 years older than her. 7 years later, Mr Han will be 3 times as old as her. How old is Mr Han now?

I think Mr. Han is around the 60 or 70 age.

I am really sorry that I couldn't answer this problem.  Try starting with 21 and multiply that by 3.  To check if you can do it, add 43 to the number you multiply 3 with.  Again, i am really sorry that i only wrote a hint.  Good luck finding the answer!

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

<u>The correct statements are A. The cost of a bottle of water is p – 0.75, C. The cost of a soft pretzel is $3.25. and D. The cost of a bag of peanuts is $4.00.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. This is the information given to solve the case:

Amount spent by Mrs. Burns at the game = US$ 45

Detailed purchase done by Mrs. Burns = 4 soft pretzels, 3 bags of peanuts and 8 bottles of water.

Price of soft pretzel = p

Price of bag of peanuts = p + US$ 0.75

Price of bottle of water = p - US$ 0.75

2. This is the equation for solving the case:

4p + 3(p + 0.75) + 8(p - 0.75) = 45

4p + 3p + 2.25 + 8p - 6 = 45

4p + 3p + 8p = 45 + 6 - 2.25

15p = 48.75

p = 3.25

<u>The price of a soft pretzel is US$ 3.25, of a bag of peanuts is US$ 4 (3.25 + 0.75) and of a bottle of water is US$ 2.50 (3.25 - 0.75).</u>

3. Now, we have all the information necessary to analyze the statements.

A. The cost of a bottle of water is p – 0.75.<u> It's correct</u>.

B. The equation that represents this scenario is (p – 0.75) + (p – 0.75) + p = 45. <u>It's false.</u>

C. The cost of a soft pretzel is $3.25. <u>It's correct.</u>

D. The cost of a bag of peanuts is $4.00.<u> It's correct.</u>

E. The cost of 8 bottles of water is $26.00. <u>It's false. (8 * 2.50 = 20)</u>

<u>The correct statements are A. The cost of a bottle of water is p – 0.75, C. The cost of a soft pretzel is $3.25. and D. The cost of a bag of peanuts is $4.00.</u>

Write the multiple regression equation for miles per gallon as the response variable. Use weight and horsepower as predictor var
Naily [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Response Variable: Miles per gallon

Predictor Variables: Weight, Horsepower

The multiple regression equation would be: M = aW + bH + c

where M = miles per gallon

a = slope of the graph of W on M OR rate of change in M due to change in W

W = weight

b = slope of the graph of H on M OR rate of change in M due to change in H

H = horsepower

c = intercept of M on the y-axis OR constant variable

How might the car rental company use this model?

The car rental company might use the regression model to determine the following:

- Effect of weight (of car) on miles run per gallon (of premium motor spirit)

- Effect of horsepower on miles per gallon; etc.

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Matching each vocabulary word with its corresponding example:

(1). All Americans = f. Population (a group of items, units or subjects under reference of study e.g. inhabitants of a region, numbers of cars in a city, workers in a factory and so on)  

(2). The proportion of all Americans who strongly agree that prisoners with life sentences who have Alzheimer's should be released = c. Parameter ( the number that summarizes some characteristic of a population)  

(3). The proportion of the 85 Americans surveyed who strongly agree that prisoners with life sentences who have Alzheimer's should be released = d. Statistic (the sample characteristic corresponding to a population parameter used when a sample is used to make statistical inference about a population)

(4). The answer-Strongly Agree' or 'Agree, or Disagree, or Strongly Disagree = b. Variable (any quality, characteristic, quantity or number that can be counted or measured)

(5). The 85 Americans who participated in the survey = e. Sample (a part or fraction of a population selected on some basis)

(6). The list of answers that the 85 Americans gave = a. Data (the pieces of information collected to be used for the analysis)
