Step-by-step explanation:
8. Let's call the number x. We can set up the equation -3x - 5 = -10. Adding 5 to both sides, we have -3x = -5, and when we divide both sides by -3, we have x = 5/3.
9. Again, we'll call the number x. The equation is 2x - 3 = -13. We can write -3 instead of +(-3) because adding a negative number is the same as subtracting. Adding 3 to both sides, we have 2x = -10, and dividing bu -2, we have x = -5. Hope this helps!

WE will consider differences as (New – Old).
From given data, we have
Dbar = 0.70
SD = 0.70
n = 5
Degrees of freedom = df = n – 1 = 5 – 1 = 4
Test statistic = t = (Dbar - µd) /[SD/sqrt(n)]
t = (0.70 – 0)/[0.70/sqrt(5)]
t = 0.70/ 0.3130
t = 2.2361
Critical value = 2.1318
(by using t-table)
P-value = 0.0445
(by using t-table)
P-value < α = 0.05
So, we reject the null hypothesis
There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the average monthly sales revenue increases after the advertising.
Kindly check the first attached image for the graphical table.
Part b
P-value = 0.0445
α = 0.01
P-value > α = 0.01

Step-by-step explanation:
A sample of 200 observations from the first population indicated that X1 is 170. A sam- ple of 150 observations from the second population revealed X2 to be 110. Use the .05 significance level to test the hypothesis. a. State the decision rule. b. Compute the pooled proportion. c. Compute the value of the test statistic. d. What is your decision regarding the null hypothesis?
Answer:
a. If the P-value is smaller than the significance level, the null hypothesis is rejected.
b. Pooled proportion = 0.8
c. z = 2.7
d. As the P-value (0.0072) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that the proportions differ significantly.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a hypothesis test for the difference between proportions.
We will use the P-value approach, so the decision rule is that if the P-value is lower than the significance level, the null hypothesis is rejected.
The claim is that the proportions differ significantly.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \pi_1-\pi_2=0\\\\H_a:\pi_1-\pi_2\neq 0[/tex]
The significance level is 0.05.
The sample 1, of size n1=200 has a proportion of p1=0.85.
[tex]p_1=X_1/n_1=170/200=0.85[/tex]
The sample 2, of size n2=150 has a proportion of p2=0.7333.
[tex]p_2=X_2/n_2=110/150=0.7333[/tex]
The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=0.1167.
[tex]p_d=p_1-p_2=0.85-0.7333=0.1167[/tex]
The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:
[tex]p=\dfrac{X_1+X_2}{n_1+n_2}=\dfrac{170+110}{200+150}=\dfrac{280}{350}=0.8[/tex]
The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:
[tex]s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.8*0.2}{200}+\dfrac{0.8*0.2}{150}}\\\\\\s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{0.0008+0.00107}=\sqrt{0.00187}=0.0432[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:
[tex]z=\dfrac{p_d-(\pi_1-\pi_2)}{s_{p1-p2}}=\dfrac{0.1167-0}{0.0432}=\dfrac{0.1167}{0.0432}=2.7[/tex]
This test is a two-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a z-table):
[tex]P-value=2\cdot P(z>2.7)=0.0072[/tex]
As the P-value (0.0072) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.
The null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that the proportions differ significantly.

13x=-21-6y and -8x=36+6y
Answer:
[tex]x=3\\y=-10[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]13x=-21-6y\\-8x=36+6y[/tex]
Let's take one of the equations and solve for x. I'll take the first one.
[tex]13x=-21-6y[/tex]
Divide by 13.
[tex]x=\frac{-21-6y}{13}[/tex]
Now replace x in the second equation.
[tex]-8x=36+6y\\-8(\frac{-21-6y}{13} )=36+6y[/tex]
Distribute -8
[tex]\frac{168+48y}{13}=36+6y[/tex]
Break down the fraction.
[tex]\frac{168}{13}+\frac{48}{13}y=36+6y[/tex]
Subtract [tex]\frac{168}{13}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{48}{13}y=36+6y-\frac{168}{13}[/tex]
Subtract 6y
[tex]\frac{48}{13}y-6y=36-\frac{168}{13}[/tex]
Combine like terms;
[tex]\frac{48-13*6}{13}y=\frac{36*13-168}{13}[/tex]
Solve;
[tex]\frac{48-78}{13}y=\frac{468-168}{13}[/tex]
Keep solving;
[tex]\frac{-30}{13}y=\frac{300}{13}[/tex]
Multiply by the negative reciprocal of the fraction next to y.
[tex](-\frac{13}{30} )\frac{-30}{13}y=\frac{300}{13}(-\frac{13}{30} )[/tex]
On the right side; 13 and 13 become 1. 300/30 = 30/3 = 10
[tex]y=-10[/tex]
After having found y, replace it in any of the equations to find x.
[tex]13x=-21-6y\\13x=-21-6(-10)\\13x=-21+60\\13x=39\\x=\frac{39}{13}\\ x=3[/tex]
Answer:
x=3
y=-10
Step-by-step explanation:
13x=-21-6y...............(1)
-8x=36+6y................(11)
Add (11) to (1)
5x=15-6y+6y
5x=15
Divide both sides by 5
5x/5=15/5
x=3
Substitute x=3 in 13x=-21-6y
13(3)=-21-6y
39=-21-6y
Collect like terms
39+21=-6y
60=-6y
Divide both sides by -6
60/-6=-6y/-6
-10=y
y=-10

Answer:
4(x+8)
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 32
Factorization:
4x: 2×2×x
32: 2×2×2×2×2
Highest common factor: 2×2 = 4
4x + 32
(4×x) + (4×8)
Using distributive property:
4(x + 8)
Answer:
The GCF of 4x and 32 is 4, so the first step is to divide each term by 4. The quotients are x and 8. The factored expression will be 4(x + 8).
The perimeter of a rectangle is 42feet. The length decreased by 3times the width is 1foot . What are the dimensions of the rectangle? (what is the length and width)
Answer: Length is 16 ft. Width is 5 feet.
Step-by-step explanation: Take the information given and write an equation. "Length decreased by 3 is 1" becomes L - 3w = 1 .
"Solve" for L. L= 3w +1
Write another equation for the formula of a perimeter. P=2L + 2w.
Substitute the values for L (from the first "solution" you wrote) and P (42 ft, given).
42 = 2(3w +1) + 2w. Solve this.
42= 6w +2 + 2w
42= 8w +2. Subtract 2 from both sides then divide both sides by 8.
W = 5
Substitute that into the first equation you wrote to get the Length.
L - 3(5) = 1
L -15 = 1. L = 1+15
L = 16

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (- 5, - 6) and is parallel to the line 4x - 5y = 35
Answer:
4x - 5y = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Any line parallel to 4x - 5y = 35 will have the same equation EXCEPT that the constant will be different.
Starting with 4x - 5y = 35, replace x with the given x-coordinate -5 and the given y-coordinate -6, and finally the given 35 with the constant C:
4(-5) - 5(-6) = C, or
-20 + 30 = C. Thus, C = 10, and the equation of the new line is
4x - 5y = 10
The equation of line is 4x - 5y = 10
What is equation of line?A straight line's general equation is y = mx + c, where m is the gradient. On the y-axis, this number c is referred to as the intercept. Key Point y = mx + c is the equation for a straight line with a gradient of m and an intercept of c on the y-axis.
Given the points (-5,-6)
and parallel to line 4x - 5y = 35...…..(1)
the equation of line is (y - y₁) = m( x - x₁)
for parallel line condition the value of m is equal to both equations
converting eq. 1 in the form of y = mx + c
4x - 5y = 35
we get y = 4/5x -7
here m = 4/5 and c = -7
substitute the value of m in equation of line
where y₁ = -6; x₁ = -5
(y - (-6)) = 4/5(x - (-5))
y +6 = 4/5(x+5)
simplify above eq. we get

Three potential employees took an aptitude test. Each person took a different version of the test. The scores are reported below. Reyna got a score of 75.3; this version has a mean of 69.3 and a standard deviation of 12. Kaitlyn got a score of 228.4; this version has a mean of 206 and a standard deviation of 28. Cade got a score of 7.88; this version has a mean of 7.2 and a standard deviation of 0.4. If the company has only one position to fill and prefers to fill it with the applicant who performed best on the aptitude test, which of the applicants should be offered the job?
Answer:
Due to the higher z-score, Cade should be offered the job.
Step-by-step explanation:
Z-score:
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
If the company has only one position to fill and prefers to fill it with the applicant who performed best on the aptitude test, which of the applicants should be offered the job?
Whoever had the higher z-score.
Reyna:
Reyna got a score of 75.3; this version has a mean of 69.3 and a standard deviation of 12.
This means that [tex]X = 75.3, \mu = 69.3, \sigma = 12[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{75.3 - 69.3}{12}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex]
Kaitlyn:
Kaitlyn got a score of 228.4; this version has a mean of 206 and a standard deviation of 28.
This means that [tex]X = 228.4, \mu = 206, \sigma = 28[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{228.4 - 206}{28}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.8[/tex]
Cade:
Cade got a score of 7.88; this version has a mean of 7.2 and a standard deviation of 0.4. This means that [tex]X = 7.88, \mu = 7.2, \sigma = 0.4[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{7.88 - 7.2}{0.4}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.7[/tex]
Due to the higher z-score, Cade should be offered the job.

Question:
Data were collected over a 10-year timespan from a sample of 100 penguins that were randomly given either metal or electronic tags. One variable examined is the length of foraging trips. Longer foraging trips can jeopardize both breeding success and survival of chicks waiting for food. Mean length of 344 foraging trips was 12.70 days for metal-tagged penguins. Mean length of 512 foraging trips was 11.60 days for electronic-tagged penguins. An estimate of the standard error for this difference of means is SE=0.283.
a) We will address the question of whether foraging trips are longer on average among metal-tagged penguins than among electronic-tagged penguins. State hypotheses in terms of two means.
b. Calculate the sample statistic xM - xE

e. Use t-distribution methods to find the p-value and draw a rough curve with appropriate shaded region. You may give either a precise p-value from software or bounds on a p-value from Table A.
f. State the conclusion of the test in context, using nontechnical language.
Answer:
See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The null and alternative hypotheses are:
H0 : uM - uE = 0
H1 : uM - uE > 0
b) Calculating the sample statistic,
xM-xE, we have:
Given xM = 12.70 days
xE = 11.60 days
xM - xE = 12.70 - 11.60 = 1.10 days
Therefore sample statistic = 1.10
c) Calculating the test statistic, using the given estimate of SE, we have:
Given standard error, SE = 0.283
[tex] \frac{xM - xE}{SE} = \frac{12.70 - 11.60}{0.283} = 3.89 [/tex]
Therefore, t test = 3.89
d) The correct degrees of freedom.
We have:
[tex]Min(n_M-1, n_E-1 ) = Min(344-1, 512-1) = Min(343, 511)[/tex]
df = 343
e) p-value:
Pvalue = P(Z > 3.89) = 0.00000602
Since p value is less than significance level of 0.05, we reject null hypothesis H0.
f) Conclusion:
There is enough evidence to conclude that foraging trips are longer on average among metal-tagged penguins than among electronic-tagged penguins.

Automobile racing, high-performance driving schools, and driver education programs run by automobile clubs continue to grow in popularity. All these activities require the participant to wear a helmet that is certified by the Snell Memorial Foundation, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to research, education, testing, and development of helmet safety standards. Snell "SA" (Sports Application)-rated professional helmets are designed for auto racing and provide extreme impact resistance and high fire protection. One of the key factors in selecting a helmet is weight, since lower weight helmets tend to place less stress on the neck. The following data show the weight and price for 18 SA helmets.

a. Develop a scatter diagram with weight as the independent variable.
b. Does there appear to be any relationship between these two variables?
There appears to be a - Select your answer -negativepositiveItem 2 linear relationship between the two variables. The heavier helmets tend to be less expensive.
c. Develop the estimated regression equation that could be used to predict the price given the weight.
The regression equation is (to 1 decimal and enter negative values as negative numbers). If your answer is zero enter "0".
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
Given the variables
X₁: Weight of a safety helmet for racers
X₂: Price of a safety helmet for racers
Note, there is n= 17 observed values for each variable so for all calculations I'll use this number and disregard the 18 mentioned in the text.
a) Scatterplot in attachment.
b) If you look at the diagram it seems that there is a negative linear regression between the price and the weight of the helmets, meaning, the higher the helmet weights, the less it costs.
c) The estimated regression equation is ^Yi= a + bXi
n= 17; ∑Y= 6466; ∑Y²= 3063392; ∑X= 1008; ∑X²= 60294; ∑XY= 367536
Y[bar]= 380.35; X[bar]= 59.29
[tex]b= \frac{sumXY-\frac{(sumX)(sumY)}{n} }{sumX^2-\frac{(sumX)^2}{n} } = \frac{367536-\frac{1008*6466}{17} }{60294-\frac{(1008)^2}{17} } = -30.18[/tex]
[tex]a= Y[bar]- bX[bar]= 380.35-(-30.18)*59.29= 2169.77[/tex]
The estimated regression equation for the price of the helmets as a function of their weight is:
^Yi= 2169.77 -30.18Xi
I hope it helps!
