Answer:

Cynthia = 12 guavas

Bessy = 36 guavas

Aicel = 72 guavas

Step-by-step explanation:

Total guavas = 120

Let

Cynthia = x

Bessy = 3x

Aicel = 2(3x)

= 6x

x + 3x + 6x = 120

10x = 120

x = 120/10

x = 12

Cynthia = x

= 12 guavas

Bessy = 3x

= 3(12)

= 36 guavas

Aicel = 6x

= 6 × 12

= 72 guavas

Total = 74 + 36 + 12

= 120 guavas

Jennifer has 12 nickels and dimes. The value of her coins is $1
ELEN [110]

Answer:

One Dollar and 80 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

12 x 5 is 60. The amount of nickles multiplied by the value of one nickel which is 5 cents. Then you take the value of a dime and multiply it by the amount of dimes, 12. You get 120. Add 60 to 120 and you get 180. One Dollar is 100 cents, add 80 to 100 and you get one Dollar and 80 cents.

A poll stated that 32% of those polled think the economy is getting worse. An economist wanted to check this claim so she survey
zysi [14]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.30 -0.32}{\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{750}}}=-1.174  

The p value for this case would be given by:

p_v =2*P(z  

For this case since the p value is higher than the significance level given we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion is not significantly different from 0.32 or 32 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=750 represent the random sample taken

\hat p=0.30 estimated proportion of  people who  thought the economy is getting worse

p_o=0.32 is the value that we want to verify

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to check if the true proportion of interest is equal to 0.32 or not.:  

Null hypothesis:p=0.32  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.32  

The statistic would be given by:

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

Replacing we got:

z=\frac{0.30 -0.32}{\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{750}}}=-1.174  

The p value for this case would be given by:

p_v =2*P(z  

For this case since the p value is higher than the significance level given we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion is not significantly different from 0.32 or 32 %

Maria said that -4n + 3 +9n - 4 is equivalent to 4n. What error did maria likely make?
ivann1987 [24]
Maria combined all of the factors, which were not all like terms. She should’ve did -4n+9n and 3-4 to get 5n-1
