So, Bob needs 2 cups of concentrate (I'll use the variable c to shorten it) for every 3.5 cups of water (w). When he has 6 cups of c, he has three times the original recipe, and therefore we need 3w as well.

3.5x2=6+1=7. So we need 7 cups of water.

Now, 6 cups of concentrate + 7 cups of water = 13 cups of orange juice.

Bob can make 13 cups of orange juice.

Hope I helped!

Answer:

a) 25

b) 67

c) 97

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.025 = 0.975$ , so $z = 1.96$

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample. In this problem, $\sigma = 0.25$

(a) The desired margin of error is $0.10.

This is n when M = 0.1. So

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.1 = 1.96*\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.1\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.25$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{19.6*0.25}{0.1}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{19.6*0.25}{0.1})^{2}$

$n = 24.01$

Rounding up to the nearest whole number, 25.

(b) The desired margin of error is $0.06.

This is n when M = 0.06. So

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.06 = 1.96*\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.06\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.25$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{19.6*0.25}{0.06}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{19.6*0.25}{0.06})^{2}$

$n = 66.7$

Rounding up, 67

(c) The desired margin of error is $0.05.

This is n when M = 0.05. So

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.05 = 1.96*\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.25$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{19.6*0.25}{0.05}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{19.6*0.25}{0.05})^{2}$

$n = 96.04$

Rounding up, 97

Compare the process of solving |x – 1| + 1 < 15 to that of solving |x – 1| + 1 > 15.

kicyunya [14]

In the first case we'd subtract 1 from both sides, obtaining |x-1|<14.

In the second case we'd also subtract 1 from both sides, and would obtain
|x-1|>14.

What would the graphs look like?

In the first case, the graph would be on the x-axis with "center" at x=1. From this center count 14 units to the right, and then place a circle around that location (which would be at x=15). Next, count 14 units to the left of this center, and place a circle around that location (which would be -13). Draw a line segment connecting the two circles. Notice that all of the solutions are between -13 and +15, not including these endpoints.

In the second case, x has to be greater than 15 or less than -13. Draw an arrow from x=1 to the left, and then draw a separate arrow from 15 to the right. None of the values in between are solutions.

10% of $560 is $56

So 5% is $28

1% of $560 is $5.60

So now half $5.60 is $2.80

$2.80 is 0.05%

Now add

$28 + $2.80 = $30.80

Total is $30.80
