a 16-ounce bottle of water from store A costs $1.28. the cost in dollars, y, of a bottle of water from store B is represented by

the equation y= 0.07x, where x is the number of ounces. what is the cost per ounce of water at each store? which stores bottle of water costs less per ounce?

Answer: Store A : $0.08 per ounce ; Store B : $0.07 per ounce. Store´s B bottle cost less per ounce.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Store A  </em>
  • <em>Cost of a 16-ounce bottle of water: $1.28 </em>
  • <em>Store B </em>
  • <em>Cost of bottle: y= 0.07x </em>

To calculate the cost per ounce for store A, we have to divide the cost of a bottle ($1.28) by the ounces of the bottle (16).

Cost per ounce (A): $1.28/ 16 = $0.08 per ounce

And for B, the expression y= 0.07x represents the cost of a bottle, where x is the number of ounces and 0.07 is the cost per ounce.

Cost per ounce (B); $0.07 per ounce

$0.08 (A) > $0.07 (B)

Store´s B bottle cost less per ounce.

Store A : 1.28/16 = 0.08 per oz
store B : y = 0.07x......= 0.07 per oz

Store B has the cheaper water.....by 1 cent per oz

The amount of time required to reach a customer service representative has a huge impact on customer satisfaction. Below is the
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is t=1.12.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for the difference between populations means.

The claim is that the mean amount of time required to reach a customer service representative significantly differs between the two hotels.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu_1-\mu_2=0\\\\H_a:\mu_1-\mu_2\neq 0

The sample 1, of size n1=20 has a mean of 2.65 and a standard deviation of √2.952=1.72.

The sample 2, of size n2=20 has a mean of 2.01 and a standard deviation of √2.952=1.89.

The difference between sample means is Md=0.64.

M_d=M_1-M_2=2.65-2.01=0.64

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_1^2+\sigma_2^2}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{1.72^2+1.89^2}{20}}\\\\\\s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.531}{20}}=\sqrt{0.327}=0.571

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

t=\dfrac{M_d-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_{M_d}}=\dfrac{0.64-0}{0.571}=\dfrac{0.64}{0.571}=1.12

Which graph represents the piecewise-defined function?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer: The correct option is 1.

Explanation:

The given piecewise function is,

y=\begin{cases}-\frac{4}{5}x-3 & \text{ if } x

It means if x<0, then

f(x)=-\frac{4}{5}x-3

If x\geq2, then

f(x)=3x-10

Since the f(x) is defined for x<0 and x\geq2, therefore the function f(x) is not defined for 0\leq x.

From the graph 2, 3 and 4 we can easily noticed that for each value of x there exist a unique value of y, therefore the function is defined for all values of x, which is not true according to the given piecewise function.

Only in figure the value of y not exist when x lies between 0 to 2, including 0. It means the function is not defined for 0\leq x, hence the first option is correct.

1. In a batch of 10 items, we wish to extract a sample of 3 without replacement. How many
svetlana [45]

Answer:

1) 120

2) E (Z) = 12 and Variance of Z = 90

a) 5 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can find this by suing combinations.

Here n= 10 and r= 3 so n C r

= 10 C 3= 120

2. E(X) = 8 and E(Y) = 3

Z = 2X - 3Y +5

E(Z ) = 2 E (X) - 3(E)(Y) +5   ( applying property for mean)

       = 2(8) - 3(3)+ 5 = 16+5-9= 21-9= 12

V(X) = 9 and V(Y) = 6.

V(Z) = E(Z )²-  V(X) *V(Y)   (applying property for Variance for two variables )

        = 144- 54= 90

3. 55 liters contain adulterated milk in 7: 4.

So it contains 4/ 11*55= 20 liters of water

But we want to make it a ratio of 7:6

the water will be 6/13 *55= 25.38 when rounded gives 25 liters of water

So 25- 20 = 5 liters must be added to make it a ratio of 7:6

A video game sets the points needed to reach the next level based on the function g(x) = 8(2)x + 1, where x is the current level
Liula [17]
For us to determine the number of points that is needed in order to surpass or succeed the hardest setting of the game level 5, we use first the function g(x) to determine the total points required for the lower level.
             g(x)  = 8(2)(x) + 1
We substitute the x of the function with 5 since we are in level 5.
             g(5) = 8(2)(5) + 1 = 81

Then, to determine the points for the hardest setting, we multiply the points by 3 as given in function h(x).
              h(x) = 3(81) = 243

Hence, to succeed the hardest setting of level 5, one needs a total of 243 points.
