A null hypothesis is a type of hypothesis used in statistics that proposes that no statistical significance exists in a set of given observations. The null hypothesis attempts to show that no variation exists between variables or that a single variable is no different than its mean. It is presumed to be true until statistical evidence nullifies it for an alternative hypothesis.

So, for the given question Null hypothesis will be

"there are not 200 raisins on average present in the box."

Graph the line y = kx +1 if it is known that the point M belongs to it: M(1,3)

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

$M(x,y) = (1,3)$ belongs to the line $y = 2\cdot x +1$ . Please see attachment below to know the graph of the line.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Analytical Geometry we know that a line is represented by this formula:

$y=k\cdot x + b$

Where:

$x$ - Independent variable, dimensionless.

$y$ - Dependent variable, dimensionless.

$k$ - Slope, dimensionless.

$b$ - y-Intercept, dimensionless.

If we know that $b = 1$ , $x = 1$ and $y = 3$ , then we clear slope and solve the resulting expression:

$k = \frac{y-b}{x}$

$k = \frac{3-1}{1}$

$k = 2$

Then, we conclude that point $M(x,y) = (1,3)$ belongs to the line $y = 2\cdot x +1$ , whose graph is presented below.

The picture shows the footprints of a man walking. The pace length P is the distance between the rear of two consecutive footpri

Rina8888 [55]

Bernard’s walking speed is 140 meters per minute

Bernard’s walking speed is 8.4 kilometers per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The pace length P is the distance between the rear of two consecutive footprints

The formula, n P = 140, gives an approximate relationship between n and P where,

n = number of steps per minute
P = pace length in meters
Bernard knows his pace length is 0.80 meters
The formula applies to Bernard’s walking

We need to calculate Bernard’s walking speed in meters per minute and in kilometers per hour

∵ n = number of steps per minute

∴ n unit is number / minute

∵ P = pace length in meters

∴ P unit is meter

- That means n P unit is meters/minute

∴ n P represents the speed in meters per second

∵ The formula applies to Bernard’s walking

∵ His pace length is 0.80 meters

∵ n P = 140

∴ n(0.8) = 140

- Divide both sides by 0.8

∴ n = 175

- That means he moves 175 steps per minute

∵ The distance he walks in minute = 175 × 0.8 = 140 meters/minute

∴ His speed is 140 meters per minute

Bernard’s walking speed is 140 meters per minute

∵ 1 km = 1000 m

∵ 1 hour = 60 minutes

- Divide the meters by 1000 and the minute by 60 to change

from meters per minute to kilometers per hour

∴ His walking speed = $\frac{140}{1000}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{60}$

- Change ÷ to × and reciprocal the fraction after the division sign

∴ His walking speed = $\frac{140}{1000}$ × $\frac{60}{1}$ = 8.4 km/h

Bernard’s walking speed is 8.4 kilometers per hour

Susan, a recent college graduate, makes a base salary of $70,000 per year. Susan has federal income tax withholding of $12,000,

Damm [24]

Answer:

Susan's take-home pay <u>$48,645</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Susan, a recent college graduate, makes a base salary of $70,000 per year. Susan has federal income tax withholding of $12,000, and state tax withholding of $4,000. Employers are required to withhold a 6.2% Social Security tax and a 1.45% Medicare tax.

Now, to find Susan's take-home pay.

Basic salary = $70,000.

Now, her tax withholdings:

Federal income tax = $12,000.

State tax = $4,000.

<u><em>Social security tax = 6.2% of $70,000.</em></u>

$=\frac{6.2}{100} \times 70,000\\\\=0.062\times 70,000\\\\=\$4340.$

<u><em>Medicare tax = 1.45% of $70,000.</em></u>

$=\frac{1.45}{100} \times 70000\\\\=0.0145\times 70000\\\\=\$1015.$

Now, to get the take-home pay of Susan's we subtract all the tax holdings of federal, state, social and medicare from the basic salary:

$70,000-(12,000+4,000+4340+1015)$

$=70,000-(21,355)$

$=70,000-21,355$

$=\$48,645.$

Therefore, Susan's take-home pay $48,645.

W = 3x + 7y solve for y

mario62 [17]

Answer:

The value of the equation $y=\frac{W-3x}{7}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

$W = 3x + 7y$

We need to solve the provided equation for y.

Subtract 3x from both side.

$W-3x= 3x-3x+ 7y$

$W-3x=7y$

Divide both sides by 7.

$\frac{7y}{7}=\frac{W-3x}{7}$

$y=\frac{W-3x}{7}$

Hence, the value of the equation is $y=\frac{W-3x}{7}$ .

Part of a book fell out. The first page of this part has number 143. The last page has a number written with the same digits. Ho

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

142 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are

First page of part of the book available = 143

The last is numbered with the digits 143

Since the book is said to have been split into two parts with, we have that one part of the book starts from the beginning, while the other part continue from the first part stops

Number on the pages on the first part = from 1 to number on the first page on the second part - 1

Hence, the part of the book available is the second part and the number of pages in the first part = 1 to 142 or 142 pages.
