Hi!

We will solve this using ratios, like this:

4 1/2 = 4,5 kg of olive oil for 27 $

1 kg of olive oil for x $

_____________________________

x = (27*1)/4,5

x = 27/4,5

x = 6 $ per kilogram

Hope this helps!

Assume the blood pressures of 10 people were measured before and after sleeping for the night. What is the corresponding critica

NeX [460]

Answer:

For the critical value we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df = n-1= 10-1=9$

And since we have a one tailed test we need to look in the t distribution with 9 degrees of freedom a quantile who accumulates 0.05 of the area on a tail and we got:

$|t_{crit}| =1.833$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A paired t-test is used to compare two population means where you have two samples in which observations in one sample can be paired with observations in the other sample. For example if we have Before-and-after observations (This problem) we can use it.

Let put some notation

x=test value with right arm , y = test value with left arm

The system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_y- \mu_x = 0$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_y -\mu_x \neq 0$

The first step is calculate the difference $d_i=y_i-x_i$

The second step is calculate the mean difference

$\bar d= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}= \frac{361}{5}$

The third step would be calculate the standard deviation for the differences, and we got:

$s_d =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (d_i -\bar d)^2}{n-1}$

The 4 step is calculate the statistic given by :

$t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}$

For the critical value we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df = n-1= 10-1=9$

And since we have a one tailed test we need to look in the t distribution with 9 degrees of freedom a quantile who accumulates 0.05 of the area on a tail and we got:

$|t_{crit}| =1.833$

You work forty hours a week at a furniture store. You receive a 1,200 dollar weekly salary, plus a 4.1% commision on sales over

Pachacha [2.7K]

If you call x the total value of the sales, the sale over 12,000 will be: g(x) = 12,000 - x.

And the commission is 4.1% of that = 0.041 * (12,000 - x) = 0.041 * g(x)

So, if f(x) = 0.041x, to calculate the commission you first have to calculate g(x) = 12,000 - x, and the f(g(x))=0.041[12,000 - x].

Which leads you to the solution for the commission as [f o g] (x) = f (g(x)) = 0.041 (12,000 - x).

Answer: [ f o g] (x)

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula mc023-1.jpg, where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height. Suppose

Simora [160]

Volume of a cylinder = π r² h

Given:
radius = (x+8)
height (2x + 3)

Volume of a cylinder = π * (x+8)² * (2x + 3)

V = π * (x+8)(x+8) * (2x+3)
V = π * (x² + 8x + 8x + 64) * (2x + 3)
V = π * (x² + 16x + 64) * (2x + 3)
V = π * (2x³ + 32x² + 128x + 3x² + 48x + 192)
V = π * (2x³ + 32x² + 3x² + 128x + 48x + 192)
V = π * (2x³ + 35x² + 176x + 192)
