The students at Emily's school recently raised money to help the victims of a natural disaster in Asia.Emily's sixth grade class

raised 40% of the total amount raised by the school.If Emily's class raised $580, how much money did the school raise in all?

Think of it like fractions. If the total of Emily's class is 40% or $580, put it into fractions. You know the total of everything is 100% and her class raised 40%. So write it as a fraction, 40 over 100. Then, write another fraction with 580 on the top, equivalent to 40%. Then you must cross multiply and divide. So multiply 100 times 580 and divide the product by 40 to get the equivalent of 100%. Therefore, the answer would be $1450. Make sense? Maybe this picture will help.

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Residual = -2

The negative residual value indicates that the data point lies below the regression line.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a linear regression model that relates daily high temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit and number of lemonade cups sold.

y = -34+ \frac{3}{5}  x

Where y is the number of cups sold and x is the daily temperature in Fahrenheit.

Residual value:

A residual value basically shows the position of a data point with respect to the regression line.

A residual value of 0 is desired which means that the regression line best fits the data.

The Residual value is calculated by

Residual = Observed value - Predicted value

The predicted value of number of lemonade cups is obtained as

y = -34+ \frac{3}{5} (95)\\\\y = -34+ 3 (19)\\\\y = -34+ 57\\\\y = 23

So the predicted value of number of lemonade cups is 23 and the observed value is 21 so the residual value is

Residual = Observed value - Predicted value

Residual = 21 - 23

Residual = -2

The negative residual value indicates that the data point lies below the regression line.

A professor is examining a new strain of bacteria. The amount of bacteria can be modeled by function s(n) = 20 · bn, where n is
user100 [1]
For this case we have a function of the form:
 y = A * (b) ^ n

 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: growth rate (if b> 1)
 n: time in hours
 Substituting values we have:
 s (n) = 20 * b ^ n

 We have then that the initial amount is:
 A = 20

 If b = 1.85 then the growth percentage is:
 (1.85-1) * (100) = 85%

 Answer:
 
here were initially 20 bacteria.
 
The hourly percent growth rate of the bacteria would be 85%

The mean hourly wage for employees in goods-producing industries is currently $24.57 (Bureau of Labor Statistics website, April,
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

a. H_{0}: μ = $24.57

H_{a}: μ ≠ $24.57

b. 0.12

c. we fail to reject the null hypothesis since p ≈0.12 > 0.05

d. we fail to reject the null hypothesis since z ≈-1.6 > -1.96

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

H_{0}: μ = $24.57

H_{a}: μ ≠ $24.57

b)

To compute p value, we need to calculate z-score of $23.89 per hour. in the distribution assumed under null hypothesis

z-score can be calculated as follows:

\frac{X-M}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{N} } } where

  • X= $23.89
  • M is the mean value under null hypothesis ( $24.57)
  • s is the sample standard deviation ($2.40)
  • N is the sample size (30)

Putting the numbers in the formula we get

\frac{23.89-24.57}{\frac{2.40}{\sqrt{30} } } ≈ −1,5518

The corresponding p-value is <em>two tailed </em>and  ≈ 0.12

c)

since p ≈0.12 > 0.05 <em>we fail to reject the null hypothesis.</em>

d)

Critical value for the 0.05 significance level in two tailed test is :

c(z)=-1.96 Since z≈ −1,6 >-1.96, it is not in the critcal region, therefore <em>we fail to reject the null hypothesis. </em>

27 students are learning to make balloon animals. There are 172 balloons to be shared equally among the students
bija089 [108]
A.) .4 of a balloon is left
To Check:
what I did was divide 172 by 27 and it is 6.37 rounded to ........6 is an equal number so I kept it and .4 will be left over after sharing equally.

B.) 17 more balloons are needs
To Check:
what I was multiply 27 by 7 because each student needs seven balloons and I got 189 after that I subtracted 172 from 189 (189-172=17)
to see how many more balloons are needed.

A rectangular garden has a width that is 8 feet less than twice the length. Find the dimensions if the perimeter is 20 feet.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

length = 6 feet

width = 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the dimensions of the rectangle, you can set up a variable and an expression that will equal the perimeter of the figure.  Given l = length, width is '8 feet less than twice the length' or w = 2l - 8.

The general formula for perimeter of a rectangle is:

2w + 2l = P, where w = width and l = length

Using the variable and expression from above and the perimeter of 20 feet:

2(2l - 8)+ 2l = 20

distribute: 4l - 16 + 2l = 20

combine like terms: 6l - 16 = 20

add 16 to both sides: 6l - 16 + 16 = 20 + 16 or 6l = 36

divide and solve for 'l':  6l/6 = 36/6, or l = 6 feet

solve for 'w':  w = 2(6) - 8 or w = 12 - 8 = 4 feet
