D + 3r = 15
d = r + 3

r + 3 + 3r = 15
4r + 3 = 15
4r = 15 - 3
4r = 12
r = 12/4
r = 3 ....he bought 3 roses, at $ 3 per rose = $ 9 <==

d = r + 3
d = 3 + 3
d = 6....he bought 6 daisies, at $ 1 per daisy = $ 6

Brad wants to buy flowers for his friend with $15. The daisies are $1 each and the roses are $3 each. He buys 3 more daisies than roses how much did the roses cost?
-daisies=x-      -roses=y-

x+y=15

the sentence how he buys 3 more daisies than roses so...
(y=x-3)
you then plug in the value of y in the equation to have only one variable...
x+ 3(x-3)=15
you then multiply 3 to the parenthesis...
x+3x-9=15
then add 9 on both sides...
4x=24
and then divide 4 on both sides...
x=6

if you plug the value of x(daisies) in the equation...
6+y=15
you subtract 6 on both sides and get...
y=9

you can also get the answer by solving for y with x...
y=3(x-3)
(x=6)
plug in x...
y=3(6-3)
y=3(3)
y=9
Answer: the roses cost $9

Suppose the weights of fish caught from pier 1 and pier 2 are normally distributed with equal population standard deviations. Th
madreJ [45]

Answer:

<em>H₀</em>: <em>μ</em>₁ = <em>μ</em>₂ vs, <em>Hₐ</em>: <em>μ</em>₁ > <em>μ</em>₂.

Step-by-step explanation:

A two-sample <em>z</em>-test can be performed to determine whether the claim made by the owner of pier 1 is correct or not.

It is provided that the weights of fish caught from pier 1 and pier 2 are normally distributed with equal population standard deviations.

The hypothesis to test whether the average weights of the fish in pier 1 is more than pier 2 is as follows:

<em>H₀</em>: The weights of fish in pier 1 is same as the weights of fish in pier 2, i.e. <em>μ</em>₁ = <em>μ</em>₂.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The weights of fish in pier 1 is greater than the weights of fish in pier 2, i.e. <em>μ</em>₁ > <em>μ</em>₂.

The significance level of the test is:

<em>α</em> = 0.05.

The test is defined as:

z=\frac{(\bar x_{1}-\bar x_{2})-(\mu_{1}-\mu_{2})}{\sqrt{\frac{\sigma_{1}^{2}}{n_{1}}+\frac{\sigma_{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}}

The decision rule for the test is:

If the <em>p</em>-value of the test is less than the significance level of 0.05 then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

The number of people being served went from 6 to 24, so the serving quadrupled.
So multiply 2.5 by 4 and you get 10 pounds of apples.

A store is selling five cans of tomato sauce for $5.25. What is the unit price? unit price = total price ÷ number of units per p
aleksklad [387]

Answer: Option A

P = \$\ 1.05

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have 5 cans of ketchup they cost $ 5.25. Then the unit price of cans is what each can costs individually.

The unit price should then be less than $ 5.25, and that is the price for 5 cans and we want to know the price for just one can of ketchup.

Then to calculate the price of each can divide the price of the 5 cans by 5.

P = \frac{5.25}{5}

P = \$\ 1.05
