Answer:

£72

Step-by-step explanation:

let Malachy amount be x then Gordon's is 3x and Sara is 2 × 3x = 6x

Then

x + 3x + 6x = 10x = £240 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = £24

Gordon gets 3x = 3 × £24 = £72

Gordon gets £72

Explanation:
Sarah gets twice as much as Gordon and Gordon gets three times as much as Malachy, which means that Malachy gets 1 part of the money, Gordon gets 3 parts because he has three times as much as Malachy, and Sarah gets 6 because she gets twice as much as Gordon. As a ratio from Sarah to Gordon to Malachy its 6:3:1. All of that adds up to £240. If u add 6+3+1 it gives you 10. 240/10 is £24. And Gordon has 3 parts so you do 3x24 which gives you £72

A large restaurant is being sued for age discrimination because 15% of newly hired candidates are between the ages of 30 years a
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take P as the proportion of new candidates between 30 years and 50 years

A) The null and alternative hypotheses:

H0 : p = 0.5

H1: p < 0.5

b) Type I error, is an error whereby the null hypothesis, H0 is rejected although it is true. Here, the type I error will be to conclude that there was age discrimination in the hiring process, whereas it was fair and random.

ie, H0: p = 0.5, then H0 is rejected.

A random sample of 6 homes in Gainesville, Florida between 1800 and 2200 square feet had a mean of 212990 and a standard deviati
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the average price of a home in Gainesville of this size is between 183,772.5 square feet and 242,207.5 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation of the sample, so we use the students t-distribution.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 6 - 1 = 5

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 5 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 0.95(t_{95}). So we have T = 2.015

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.015*14500 = 29217.5.

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 212990 - 29217.5 = 183,772.5 square feet

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 212990 + 29217.5 = 242,207.5 square feet

The 95% confidence interval for the average price of a home in Gainesville of this size is between 183,772.5 square feet and 242,207.5 square feet.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

420 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Q. Benjamin is riding a unicycle. The tire of his unicycle has a circumference of 2.8 m, and the tire revolves 1.5 times per second. What is the distance Benjamin travels in 100 seconds?

<u>Given</u>:

Circumference of circular tire = 2.8 meters

Tire revolves per second = 1.5 times

<u>Question asked:</u>

What is the distance Benjamin travels in 100 seconds?

<u>Solution:</u>

Circumference of circular tire means distance covered by the unicycle's tire when it revolves 1 time that is 2.8 meters.

<em><u>Now, by unitary method:</u></em>

In 1 second, tire revolves = 1.5 times

In 100 seconds, tire revolves =  1.5 \times 100

                                                = 150 times

Distance covered by the tire when it revolves 1 time = 2.8 m

Distance covered by the tire when it revolves 150 times = 2.8 \times 150

                                                                                             = 420 meters

Therefore, Benjamin travels 420 meters in 100 seconds.

The marginal price per pound (in dollars) at which a coffee store is willing to supply x pounds of Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Thus, the coffee shop is willing to supply 6 pounds per week at a price of $4 per pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The marginal price per pound (in dollars) is given by:

p'(x) = \displaystyle\frac{208}{(x+7)^2}

where x is the supply in pounds.

P(x) = \displaystyle\int p'(x)~dx =\displaystyle\int\displaystyle\frac{208}{(x+7)^2}~dx\\\\P(x) = \frac{-208}{(x+7)} + c\\\\\text{where c is the constant of integration.}

The coffee shop is willing to supply 9 pounds per week at a price of $7 per pound.

Thus, we are given that

P(9) = 7

Putting the values, we get,

P(x) = \displaystyle\frac{-208}{(x+7)} + c\\\\P(9) = 7\\\\\displaystyle\frac{-208}{(9+7)} + c = 7\\\\c = 7 + \frac{208}{16} = 20

P(x) = \displaystyle\frac{-208}{(x+7)} + 20

Now, we have to find how many pounds it would be willing to supply at a price of $4 per pound.

P(x) = 4

P(x) = \displaystyle\frac{-208}{(x+7)} + 20 = 4\\\\\frac{-208}{x+7} = -16\\\\x + 7 = 13\\x = 6

Thus, the coffee shop is willing to supply 6 pounds per week at a price of $4 per pound.

Which shows the pre-image of triangle X'Y'Z' before the figure was rotated 90° about the origin?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer: The last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definiton, the rotation rule 90° about the origin is:

(x,y)⇒(-y,x)

2. You know that the coordinates of triangle X'Y'Z' are the following:

X'(-2,2)

Y'(0,6)

Z'(1,1)

3. Now, when you apply the rule, you obtain that the coordianates of the pre-image are the following:

X(2,2)

Y(6,0)

Z(1,-1)

Therefore, the answer is the last option.
