ALICE=X, HAN=36+X AFTER 7 YEARS ALICE= X+7, HAN=X+43 AFTER 7 YEARS, MR. HAN IS 36+X +7, AND HE IS 3X THE AGE OF ALICE, OR: X+43=3(X+7). SOLVING FOR X: X+43=3X+21 (DISTRIBUTE 3 TO X AND 7) FLIP FORMULA TO 3X+21=X+43 ADD -X-21 TO BOTH SIDES 2X=22 DIVIDE BOTH SIDES WITH 2 X=11 ALICE IS 11, MR. HAN IS 47 NOW AFTER 7 YEARS, ALICE IS 18 MR. HAN IS (47+7) 54 TO CHECK: 54 DIVIDED BY 3 = 18

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!

A teacher collected information from a class of 25 students about the time, in hours, they spent studying the previous week and
amm1812

Answer:

Correlation will not change.

Correlation coefficient = -0.72

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Correlation coefficient between hours spent studying and hours spent on the Internet = -0.72

Properties of correlation coefficient:

  • Correlation is a technique that help us to find or define a relationship between two variables.
  • It is a measure of linear relationship between two quantities.
  • It is not affected by the units of the variable or change in units of the variable.

Thus, if the units of each variable is changed from hours to minutes, the correlation coefficient remains the same between minutes studying and minutes spent on the Internet.

Because you are working a late shift, you will get an increase in your wage. You will get and additional 10% per hour from 6:00p
siniylev [52]

CHECK THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW:

Supervisor: "Because you are working a late shift, you will get an increase in your wage. You will get an additional 10% per hour from 6:00 PM to 12:00 AM and additional 15% from 12:00 AM to 1:00 AM." Employee: "I am working from 2:00 PM to 12:00 AM. Between 2:00 PM and 6:00 PM, I will make $12.00 per hour. Between 6:00 PM and 12:00 AM, I will make __________ per hour

Answer:

I will make $13.2 per hour

Explanation:

It can be deducted from the question that that the money Employee gets money for Working from 2.00 PM to 6.00 PM = $12per hour

Also the Employee gets additional 10% of money for working from 6.00 PM to 12.00 AM which implies that

10% = (10/100)*$12per hour

=$1.2per hour

Again, Employee gets additional 15% of the money for working from 12.00 AM to 01.00 AM which can be calculated as:

15% = (15/100)*$12per hour

=$1.8 per hour

which means that Employee gets additional $1.8 per hour

of the money for working from 12.00 AM to 01.00 AM

Therefore, if Employee works from 2.00 PM to 12.00 AM,

Employee will gets money for Working from 2.00 PM to 6.00 PM as well as the 10\% extra wage which

= $12 + $1.2 = $13.2

= \$ 12 + \$ 1.2 = \$ 13.2

Twenty-one boys and eight girls go on a camping trip. In how many ways can a group of six be selected to gather firewood, given
lorasvet [3.4K]
(a)  there are 8C2  = 28 ways of picking 2 girls from 8
And there are  21C4  =  5985 ways of picking 4 boys

Required number of ways for 2g / 4b  = 28 * 5985 =  167,580 

(b) at least 2 girls means  combinations of 2g/4b , 3g,3b , 4g/2b , 5g 1b or 
6 girls.

2g/4b  = 167,580 ways
3g/3b =  8C3 * 21C3 =  56 * 1330 = 74,480
4g/2b =  8C4* 21C2  =   70 * 210 = 14,700 
5g 1b = 8C5* 21 =  56*21 = 1176
6 girls  = 8C6 = 28

adding these up we get the answer to (b) which is  257,964
