Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: it would take 20 weeks before the amount in both accounts would be the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of weeks that it will take either Ruben and Shawna to have the same amount of money in their account.

Let y represent the total amount that would be in Shawna's account after x weeks

Let z represent the total amount that would be in Ruben's account after x weeks

Shawna has $750 in the bank. She deposits $37.50 each week. This means that the total amount after x weeks would be

y = 37.5x + 750

Ruben has $850 in the bank. He deposits his paycheck of $102.75 every Monday,and he spends about $70.25 each week.. This means that the total amount after x weeks would be

z = 850 + 102.75x - 70.25x

z = 850 + 32.5x

To determine the number of weeks before the amount in both accounts will becomes the same, we would equate y to z. It becomes

37.5x + 750= 850 + 32.5x

37.5x - 32.5x = 850 - 750

5x = 100

x = 100/5 = 20

Answer:

<em>Solution; ( 1, 0 ), and ( - 3, 4 )</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

See procedure below;

First let us make these two functions ( y = -x + 1 , y = x^2 + x - 2 ) equivalent;

- x + 1  = x^2 + x - 2,

-x - x + 1 + 2 - x^2 = 0,

- 2x + 3 - x^2 = 0,

x^2 + 2x - 3 = 0,

Now factor the simplified equation;

x^2 + 2x - 3 = 0,

( x^2 - x ) + ( 3x - 3 ) = 0,

x ( x - 1 ) + 3 ( x - 1 ) = 0,

( x - 1 )( x + 3 ) = 0,

And solve for x;

x - 1 = 0, and x + 3 = 0,

x = 1, and x = - 3

Now substitute this value of x into the two functions as to receive the y  values for each x - value;

y = - ( 1 ) + 1, <em>y = 0 for x = 1</em>,

y = ( - 3 )^2 - 3 - 2, y = 9 - 3 - 2, <em>y = 4 for x = - 3</em>,

<em>Solution; ( 1, 0 ), and ( - 3, 4 )</em>

Noor brought 212121 sheets of stickers. She gave \dfrac{1}{3} 3 1 ​ start fraction, 1, divided by, 3, end fraction of a sheet to
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

12 teachers will get 1/2 sheets each

Step-by-step explanation:

Noor bought 21 sheets of stickers

She gave 1/3 sheets to each 45 students

She wants to give teachers 1/2 of sheets

The question should be: how many teachers will she give

Total sheets=21

Students gets= 1/3 × 45

=45/3

=15 sheets

Remaining sheet= total sheets - students sheets

=21-15

=6 sheets

There are 6 sheets remaining for teachers

She wants to give 1/2 to each teacher

Then,

The number of teachers that will get =Remaining sheets ÷ each teacher's share

=6 ÷1/2

=6 × 2/1

=12 teachers

12 teachers will get 1/2 sheets each

Repeated student samples. Of all freshman at a large college, 16% made the dean’s list in the current year. As part of a class p
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

a) p-hat (sampling distribution of sample proportions)

b) Symmetric

c) σ=0.058

d) Standard error

e) If we increase the sample size from 40 to 90 students, the standard error becomes two thirds of the previous standard error (se=0.667).

Step-by-step explanation:

a) This distribution is called the <em>sampling distribution of sample proportions</em> <em>(p-hat)</em>.

b) The shape of this distribution is expected to somewhat normal, symmetrical and centered around 16%.

This happens because the expected sample proportion is 0.16. Some samples will have a proportion over 0.16 and others below, but the most of them will be around the population mean. In other words, the sample proportions is a non-biased estimator of the population proportion.

c) The variability of this distribution, represented by the standard error, is:

\sigma=\sqrt{p(1-p)/n}=\sqrt{0.16*0.84/40}=0.058

d) The formal name is Standard error.

e) If we divided the variability of the distribution with sample size n=90 to the variability of the distribution with sample size n=40, we have:

\frac{\sigma_{90}}{\sigma_{40}}=\frac{\sqrt{p(1-p)/n_{90}} }{\sqrt{p(1-p)/n_{40}}}}= \sqrt{\frac{1/n_{90}}{1/n_{40}}}=\sqrt{\frac{1/90}{1/40}}=\sqrt{0.444}= 0.667

If we increase the sample size from 40 to 90 students, the standard error becomes two thirds of the previous standard error (se=0.667).
