The mistake is in 3rd step, as we can't equate powers if bases are different.
4^-3=2^8a
2^-6=2^8a
-6=8a
-3/4=a

At a particular restaurant, each mini hotdog has 80 calories and each pizza roll has 50 calories. A combination meal with mini h

cestrela7 [59]

There are 15 mini hotdogs and 5 mini pizza rolls in the combination meal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Calories in each hotdog = 80 calories

Calories in each mini pizza = 50 calories

Combined meal = 20

Combined calories = 1450 calories

Let,

x represent the number of hot dogs.

y represent the number of mini pizzas.

According to given statement;

x+y=20 Eqn 1

80x+50y=1450 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 80

$80(x+y=20)\\80x+80y=1600\ \ \ Eqn\ 3$

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3

$(80x+80y)-(80x+50y)=1600-1450\\80x+80y-80x-50y=150\\30y=150$

Dividing both sides by 30

$\frac{30y}{30}=\frac{150}{30}\\y=5$

Putting y=5 in Eqn 1

$x+5=20\\x=20-5\\x=15$

There are 15 mini hotdogs and 5 mini pizza rolls in the combination meal.

Answer:

The z-score for the group "25 to 34" is 0.37 and the z-score for the group "45 to 54" is 0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data provided is as follows:

25 to 34 45 to 54

1329 2268

1906 1965

2426 1149

1826 1591

1239 1682

1514 1851

1937 1367

1454 2158

Compute the mean and standard deviation for the group "25 to 34" as follows:

$\bar x=\frac{1}{n}\sum x=\frac{1}{8}\times [1329+1906+...+1454]=\frac{13631}{8}=1703.875\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (x-\bar x)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{8-1}\times 1086710.875}=394.01$

Compute the z-score for the group "25 to 34" as follows:

$z=\frac{x-\bar x}{s}=\frac{1851-1703.875}{394.01}=0.3734\approx 0.37$

Compute the mean and standard deviation for the group "45 to 54" as follows:

$\bar x=\frac{1}{n}\sum x=\frac{1}{8}\times [2268+1965+...+2158]=\frac{14031}{8}=1753.875\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (x-\bar x)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{8-1}\times 1028888.875}=383.39$

Compute the z-score for the group "45 to 54" as follows:

$z=\frac{x-\bar x}{s}=\frac{1851-1753.875}{383.39}=0.25333\approx 0.25$

Thus, the z-score for the group "25 to 34" is 0.37 and the z-score for the group "45 to 54" is 0.25.
