Answer:

9 cakes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of cakes = x

Let the number of persons = y

y = $\frac{540}{x}$

Since x = $(\frac{15}{100})y$

$\frac{540}{\frac{15}{100}}y$ = y

y² = $\frac{(540\time 100}{15})y$ = 3600

y = ±√3600

y = 60 [60 persons]

x = $\frac{540}{60}$ = 9

9 cakes given to each person.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Part a) $2,50,18$

Part b) When Jenny divides the square root of her favorite positive integer by $\sqrt{2}$ , she gets an integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> the favorite positive integer

Part a)

1) For $x=2$

$\sqrt{2}*\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{4}=2$ -----> the product is an integer

so

The number $x=2$ could be Jenny favorite positive integer

2) For $x=50$

$\sqrt{50}*\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{100}=10$ -----> the product is an integer

so

The number $x=50$ could be Jenny favorite positive integer

3) For $x=18$

$\sqrt{18}*\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{36}=6$ -----> the product is an integer

so

The number $x=18$ could be Jenny favorite positive integer

Part B)

1) For $x=2$

$\sqrt{2}/\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{1}=1$ -----> the result is an integer

2) For $x=50$

$\sqrt{50}/\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{25}=5$ -----> the result is an integer

3) For $x=18$

$\sqrt{18}/\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{9}=3$ -----> the result is an integer

Therefore

When Jenny divides the square root of her favorite positive integer by $\sqrt{2}$ , she gets an integer

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Volume= 2.92cubic yard

Step-by-step explanation:

Converting to ft

23ft9inches= 23+(9/12)=23.75ft

10ft 1 in= 10 +(1/12)= 10.083ft

4 inches= (4/12)=0.333ft

Volume= L×W×H

Volume= 23.75 × 10.083×0.33= 79.02ft^3

Converting to cubic yard

1 cubic foot= 0.037 cubic yard

79.02 cubic feet= 0.037× 79.02= 2.92cubic yard

Answer:

The <em>t</em>-value used for the 95% confidence interval of paired data is 2.776.

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval formula for mean difference for a paired data is as follows:

$CI=\bar x_{d}\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}\times \frac{s_{d}}{\sqrt{n}}$

Here,

$\bar x_{d}$ = sample mean of the difference,

$s_{d}$ = sample standard deviation of the difference,

<em>n </em>= sample size (both samples are of same size).

$t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}$ = critical value of <em>t</em>

(<em>n</em> - 1) = degrees of freedom

The information provided is:

<em>n</em> = 5

Confidence level = 95%

The critical value of <em>t</em> is:

$t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}=t_{0.05/2, (5-1)}$

$=t_{0.025, 4}$

$=2.776$

*Use a <em>t</em>-table for the critical value of <em>t</em>.

Thus, the <em>t</em>-value used for the 95% confidence interval of paired data is 2.776.
