* Craig's answer is not reasonable because to add fractions the denominators must be the same.

** Total distance = 5/8 + 1/2 = 5/8 + 4/8 = 9/8 miles

*** Using the line number to prove the answer:
The line number that represents the problem is in the attached figure.
while the distance between 0 and 1 divided to 8 sections
to represent (5/8) count 5 sections from zero ⇒⇒⇒ point (a)
and to represent (1/2) it is the midpoint between 0 and 1 which mean it is 4 sections but it will be counted from point (a) so, adding 4 sections to point (a) the result will be the point (b)
So, counting from 0 to point (b) will give us 9 sections
and while one section represents (1/8)
So the total distance will be 9 * (1/8) = 9/8 which is agree with the result obtained before

In June 2012, Twitter was reporting 400 million tweets per day. Each tweet can consist of up to 140 characters (letter, numbers,
gulaghasi [49]

Each tweet would cost between 1 and 140 pennies you can write that as an inequality [1 ≤ x ≤ 140] Since you can't tweet 0 characters or above 140.

if you want to change it to pounds divide by 100.

A) 1 ≤ x ≤ 140

B) Each character costs a penny, you can't tweet less than 1 character or above 140.

A hospital cafeteria has 20 20 tables. 65% 65 % of the tables have 6 6 chairs at each table. The remaining 35% 35 % of the table
miss Akunina [59]

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{65\% of 20}}{\left( \cfrac{65}{100}\right)20}\implies 13


so, 13 of the 20 tables have 6 chairs each.

that means, the remaining 7 tables, have 4 chairs each.

13 * 6 = 78 chairs total for those 13 tables.

7 * 4 = 28 chairs total for the remaining 7 tables.

78 + 28, that's how many.

Which statement shows how two polynomials 4x + 6 and 2x2 − 8x demonstrate the closure property when multiplied?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

8x^{3} -20x^{2} -48x is a polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : polynomials 4x+6 and2x^{2} -8x

Solution:

(4x+6)*(2x^{2} -8x)

4x(2x^{2} -8x)+6(2x^{2} -8x)

8x^{3} -32x^{2}+12x^{2} -48x

8x^{3} -20x^{2} -48x

Polynomial :An expression of more than two algebraic terms, especially the sum of several terms that contain different powers of the same variable.

Thus 8x^{3} -20x^{2} -48x is a polynomial

Hence option A is correct.

Graph a line with a slope of -2/5 that contains the point (-3,5)
kotykmax [81]

y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{19}{5}

Further explanation:

We have to find the equation of the line first to graph the line.

The general form of slope-intercept form of equation of line is:

y=mx+b

Given

m=-\frac{2}{5}

Putting the value of slope in the equation

y=-\frac{2}{5}x+b

To find the value of b, putting the point (-3,5) in equation

5=-\frac{2}{5}(-3)+b\\5=\frac{6}{5}+b\\5-\frac{6}{5}+b\\b=\frac{25-6}{5}\\b=\frac{19}{5}

Putting the values of b and m

y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{19}{5}

The graph is made by using online graphing tool Desmos.

Periodically, Merrill Lynch customers are asked to evaluate Merrill Lynch financial consultants and services. Higher ratings on
Vlada [557]

Answer:

See the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)  

H0: Consultant with more experience has the higher population mean service rating.

H1: Consultant with more experience doesn't have the higher population mean service rating.

(b)  

t = 1.9923 (see the attached image)

(c)

The degrees of freedom for the test statistic,

df = 16

The P-value of the one tailed t- test with 16 degrees of freedom is,

P−value = tdist(X,df,tails)

P-value = tdist(1.9923,16,1)

P-value = 0.032

(d)​

Since, P-value 0.032 is less than the significance level 0.05, there is an enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, there is a sufficient evidence to conclude that Consultant with more experience doesn't have the higher population mean service rating.

Hope this helps!
