Maggie's brother is 6 years younger than four times her age. The sum of their ages is
59.
How old is Maggie?
Maggie is
years old.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Maggie is 11 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

let m be Maggie and b be her brother.

[tex]m+b=59[/tex]

[tex]b=4m-6[/tex]

substitute for b.

[tex]m+4m-6=59[/tex]

[tex]5m-6=59[/tex]

add 6 to both sides

[tex]5m=55[/tex]

divide by 5 on both sides

[tex]m=11[/tex]

double check by finding the brother's age by substituting for m

[tex]11+b=59[/tex]

[tex]b=48[/tex]

Answer:

  -36

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the expression for the general term, you can fill in the known values and solve for the parameters of the sequence.

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

  a8 = a1 + d(8 -1) = 60

  a12 = a1 + d(12 -1) = 48

The difference of these equations is ...

  (a1 +7d) -(a1 +11d) = (60) -(48)

  -4d = 12

  d = -3

Substituting into the first equation, we have ...

  a1 +7(-3) = 60

  a1 = 81 . . . . . . . . . add 21

Then the 40th term is ...

  a40 = 81 -3(40 -1) = 81 -117

  a40 = -36

A spinner is divided into 6 equal parts. These sections are labeled with a number 1, one section has a 2, one section has a 3, and one section has a 4. If the spinner is spun two times, what is the probability it will land on both 2 sides?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{36} = 0.0278[/tex] = 2.78% probability it will land on both 2 sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each trial, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it lands on 2, or it does not. The probability of the spinner landing on two in a trial is independent of any other trial, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

One of the six sides is 2:

This means that [tex]p = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

If the spinner is spun two times, what is the probability it will land on both 2 sides?

This is P(X = 2) when n = 2. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}.(\frac{1}{6})^{2}.(\frac{5}{6})^{0} = \frac{1}{36} = 0.0278[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{36} = 0.0278[/tex] = 2.78% probability it will land on both 2 sides.

The test statistic :

T = dbar / (Sd/√n)

dbar = Σx / n = - 2.4 / 9 = 0.2666

Standard deviation of difference Sd; [√Σ(d - dbar)² / n-1]

Sd = 0.403 (using calculator)

Hence,

T = dbar / (Sd/√n)

-0.266 / (0.403/√9)

-0.266 / 0.1343333

= - 1.980

The Pvalue ;

df = n - 1 ; 9 - 1 = 8

Pvalue(-1.980, 8) = 0.083

α = 0.05

Since Pvalue > α; We fail to reject the null and conclude thattherw is no difference in population means.

Determine the x- and y- intercepts for the graph defined by the given equation. y = 7x + 3 a. x-intercept is ( 3, 0) y-intercept is (0, negative StartFraction 3 Over 7 EndFraction) c. x-intercept is (0, negative StartFraction 3 Over 7 EndFraction) y-intercept is ( 3, 0) b. x-intercept is (negative StartFraction 3 Over 7 EndFraction, 0) y-intercept is (0, 3) d. x-intercept is (3, 0) y-intercept is (negative StartFraction 3 Over 7 EndFraction, 0)

Answers

Answer:

x-intercept is (-3/7, 0) and the y-intercept is at (0, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function y = 7x + 3

The x-intercept occurs at y = 0. Substituting y = 0 into the expression, we will have:

0 = 7x + 3

7x + 3 = 0

7x = -3

x = -3/7

Similarly, the y-intercept occurs at x = 0. Substituting x = 0 into the expression, we will have:

y = 7(0) + 3

y = 0 + 3

y = 3

Hence the x-intercept is (-3/7, 0) and the y-intercept is at (0, 3)

Which function is represented by the table of values below?

Answers

Answer:

A. y = -x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The function can be represented in the slope-intercept form such as y = mx + b

m = slope = change in y/change in x

b = y-intercept = the starting value or the value of y when x is 0.

✔️Find slope (m) using two pair of values from the table, say (0, 1) and (1, 0):

Slope (m) = (0 - 1)/(1 - 0) = -1/1

Slope (m) = -1

✔️ y-intercept (b) = 1 (y = 1 when x is 0)

✔️Write the equation by substituting m = -1 and b = 1 into y = mx + b:

y = -1(x) + (1)

y = -x + 1

A random sample of 49 measurements from a population with population standard deviation σ1 = 4 had a sample mean of x1 = 11. An independent random sample of 64 measurements from a second population with population standard deviation σ2 = 5 had a sample mean of x2 = 14. Test the claim that the population means are different. Use level of significance 0.01. What distribution does the sample test statistic follow? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Reject H0 and conclude that population means are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

H0: μ1 = μ2

H1: μ1 ≠ μ2

x1 = 11 ; σ1 = 4 ; n1 = 49

x2 = 14 ; σ2 = 5 ; n2 = 64

The test statistic :

(x1 - x2) / sqrt[(σ1²/n1 + σ2²/n2)]

Test statistic :

(11 - 14) / sqrt[(4²/49 + 5²/64)]

Test statistic :

We know that a class interval must be greater than what the I formula solution is; however... What is the solution for class interval (for the formula) for a frequency distribution if the data ranges from 100 to 220 with 50 observations?

Answers

Answer:

Therefore the answer is 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

class interval = range / number of classes

But here number of classes is not given , so we use the formula

class interval = range / ( 1+ 3.322 log N)

where , range =maximum - minimum = 220-100 = 120

N= number of observations = 50

class interval = 120 / ( 1+ 3.322 * log 50) = 18.06

Rounding up to a convinient number

Thus , class intervai = 20

Therefore the answer is 20.
