Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Della bought a tree seeding that was 2\frac{1}{4} feet tall means \frac{9}{4} feet.

First year it grew 1\frac{1}{6} feet means it grew \frac{7}{6} feet.

It means after 1 year, the height of tree will be = \frac{9}{4}+\frac{7}{6}=\frac{41}{12}

After 2 years, the height of tree is = 5 feet

So, it grew in second year = 5-\frac{41}{12}

So, it grew in second year = \frac{60-41}{12}=\frac{19}{12}

So, it grew in second year=1\frac{7}{12} feet.   :  Answer

Hope it will help :)

△RST is dilated with the rule DT,1/3 (x, y), where the center of dilation is T(3, –2).
dmitriy555 [2]

△RST is dilated with the rule DT,1/3 (x, y), where the center of dilation is T(3, –2).

The distance between the x-coordinates of R and T is 3 .

The distance between the y-coordinates of R and T is 6.

R' is 1 unit left,2 units up from T, so the coordinates of R' are (2,0)

A government official is in charge of allocating social programs throughout the city of Vancouver. He will decide where these so
otez555 [7]

Answer: (0.132132, 0.274368)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A simple random sample of 123 people living in Gastown and finds that 25 have an annual income that is below the poverty line.

i.e. n= 123

\hat{p}=\dfrac{25}{123}\approx0.203252

Critical value for 95% confidence interval : z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

Confidence interval for population :

\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

i.e. 0.203252\pm (1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.203252(1-0.203252)}{123}}

0.203252\pm (1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.203252(1-0.203252)}{123}}\\\\\0.203252\pm0.071118\\\\=(0.20325-0.071118,\ 0.203252+0.071118)\\\\=(0.132132,\ 0.274368)

Hence, the 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of Gastown residents living below the poverty line : (0.132132, 0.274368)

For a specific species of fish in a pond, a wildlife biologist wants to build a regression equation to predict the weight of a f
sashaice [31]

Answer: First of all, we will add the options.

A. Yes, because 3 inches falls above the maximum value of lengths in the sample.

B. Yes, because the regression equation is based on a random sample.

C. Yes, because the association between length and weight is positive.

D. No, because 3 inches falls above the maximum value of lengths in the sample.

E. No, because there may not be any 3-inch fish of this species in the pond.

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation: It would not be appropriate to use the model to predict the weight of species that is 3 inches long because 3 inches falls above the maximum value of lengths in the sample.

As we can see from the question, the model only accounts for species that are within the range of 0.75 to 1.35 inches in length, and species smaller or larger than that length have not been taken into consideration. Therefore the model can not be used to predict the weights of fishes not with the range accounted for.

Pedro has created the function f(x)= 4x-3/2 to represent the number of assingments he has completed where x represents the numbe
Law Incorporation [45]
The given function is
f(x) = 4x - 3/2
where
f(x) = number of assignments completed
x =  number of weeks required to complete the assignments

We want to find f⁻¹ (30) as an estimate of the number of weeks required to complete 30 assignments.
The procedure is as follows:

1. Set y = f(x)
   y = 4x - 3/2

2. Exchange x and y
   x = 4y - 3/2

3. Solve for y
   4y = x + 3/2
   y = (x +3/2)/4

4. Set y equal to f⁻¹ (x)
  f⁻¹ (x) = (x + 3/2)/4

5. Find f⁻¹ (30)
  f⁻¹ (30) = (30 + 3/2)/4 = 63/8 = 8 (approxmately)

Answer:
Pedro needs about 8 weeks to complete 30 assignments.

Willie and his brothers went to TGI Mondays. Their order consisted of 3 cheeseburgers at $8.75 each, a fish sandwich for $6.75,
Sladkaya [172]

<u>Answer:</u>$68.69

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Calculation of bill value

Cheeseburgers  =    26.25

(8.75 x 3)

Fish Sandwich    =     6.75

Pizza                    =    14.99

Sweet Tea

(4 x 2.09)              =    8.36

Total of items        =  56.35

Sales tax on food  =   3.381

(56.35 x 6%)          

Total bill value       = 59.731

Calculation of tips

Bill value x 15%

=59.731 x 15%

Tips paid=8.95965

Calculation of meals cost

Total meal cost = Bill value + tips

=59.731+8.95965

=$68.69

Total meal cost is $68.69
