2.8 meters linen divided into 45 cm pieces = # of pieces and waste

1 answer:

6 0

2.8 meter= 2800cms

To solve this, we can create a simple algebraic equation:
45x=2800
Divide both sides by 45.
(45x)/45=(2800)/45
x=62.222

You can make 62 full pieces.

To find the waste, multiply the numbers of pieces by the length of each.
62*45
=2790
2800-<span>2790
=10 centimeters

There would be 10 centimeters of wasted linen.

Hope this helps!

Shopping for a freezer, Manuit finally settled on one with a purchase price of $850. The annual cost of operating the freezer is

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

In 12 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = year when average the average cost of owning a freezer would be less than $117

($850 + $40a) / a < $117

$850 + $40a < $117a

collecting like terms

$850 < $77a

a = 11.04 months

The graph of the function f(x) = (x + 2)(x + 6) is shown below.

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x + 2)(x +6)

1) The function is positive for all real values of x where x > –4 :

COUNTER-EXAMPLE : x = - 3 you have -3>-4 but (-3+2)(-3+6) = -1 ×3 =-3 no positive .

2) The function is positive for all real values of x where

x < –6 or x > –3.

COUNTER-EXAMPLE : x = - 2.5 you have -2.5>-3 but (-2.5+2)(-2.5+6) = -0.5 ×3.5 =-1.75 no positive .

same method for the statement : "The function is negative for all real values of x where

x < –2."

conclusion : statement about the function is true: "The function is negative for all real values of x where

–6 < x < –2."

From generation to generation, the mean age when smokers first start to smoke varies. However, the standard deviation of that ag

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

If we compare the p value and the significance level given for example $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we to reject the null hypothesis, and the the actual mean starting age of smokers is significantly lower than 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

$\bar X=18.1$ represent the mean age when smokers first start to smoke varies

$s=1.3$ represent the standard deviation for the sample

$\sigma=2.1$ represent the population standard deviation

$n=37$ sample size

$\mu_o =5.7$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean starting age is at least 19, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu\geq 19$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 19$

We know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$z=\frac{18.1-19}{\frac{2.1}{\sqrt{37}}}=-2.607$

Calculate the P-value

Since is a one-side lower test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(z$
