how do you figure out ratios? the problem is 12 quarters to 34 dollars. thanks
Step-by-step explanation:
When you have a ratio, you put one number as the numerator and than one number as the denominator.
so it would be (12/34)=(x/68)
In this example I made the ratio you are comparing it to have 68 dollars, so when you solve for the amount of quarters you need it should be 24, since all of the numbers in this example are just being doubled.
To solve for x, you multiply 68 on both sides of the equation, 68×(12/34)=x
24=x
So this proves that this is how ratios, are used. It also does not matter what number you place on the numerator or denominator.
The solution system to 3y-2x=-9 and y=-2x+5
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{(3,-1)}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
Well to find the solution the the given system,
3y - 2x = -9
y = -2x + 5
So to find x lets plug in -2x + 5 for y in 3y - 2x = -9.
3(-2x + 5) - 2x = -9
Distribute
-6x + 15 - 2x = -9
-8x + 15 = -9
-15 to both sides
-8x = -24
Divide -8 to both sides
x = 3
Now that we have x which is 3, we can plug in 3 for x in y = -2x + 5.
y = -2(3) + 5
y = -6 + 5
y = -1
So the solution is (3,-1).

Find the sum of the first 6 terms of 3 - 6 + 12 + …
Answer:
[tex] S_6 = -63 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence above is a geometric sequence.
The common ratio (r) = [tex] \frac{-6}{3} = \frac{12}{-6} = -2 [/tex]
The common ratio < 1, therefore, the formula for the sum of nth terms of the sequence would be: [tex] S_n = \frac{a_1(1 - r^n)}{1 - r} [/tex]
a1 = 3
r = -2
n = 6
Plug in the values into the formula
[tex] S_6 = \frac{3(1 - (-2^6)}{1 - (-2)} [/tex]
[tex] S_6 = \frac{3(1 - (64)}{1 + 2} [/tex]
[tex] S_6 = \frac{3(-63)}{3} [/tex]
[tex] S_6 = -63 [/tex]
If 2x + 5 = 8x, then 12x = ?
A 5
B
10
C
15
D 20
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 5 = 8x
Subtract 2x from each side
2x-2x + 5 = 8x-2x
5 = 6x
We want 12x so multiply each side by 2
2*5 = 6x*2
10 = 12x
Answer:
B. 10
Step-by-step explanation:
To find 12x, you first need to find the value of x using the first equation:
[tex]2x+5=8x[/tex]
You need to get the variables (x) on the same side of the equation in order to simplify them. To do this, use reverse operations. Subtract 2x from both sides to keep the equation balanced:
[tex]2x-2x+5=8x-2x\\\\5=6x[/tex]
Now isolate the variable (x) by dividing both sides of the equation by 6 (using reverse operations):
[tex]\frac{5}{6}=\frac{6x}{6} \\\\\frac{5}{6}=x[/tex]
Now insert the given value of x into 12x:
[tex]12(\frac{5}{6})[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]12*\frac{5}{6} \\\\\frac{12}{1}*\frac{5}{6}\\\\\frac{60}{6}=10[/tex]
12x equals 10.

According to a report in USA Today, more and more parents are helping their young adult children purchase their first home. Suppose eight persons in a random sample of 40 young adults who recently purchased a home in Kentucky received help from their parents. You have been asked to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of all young adults in Kentucky who received help from their parents. What is the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion
Answer:
the margin of error
= 1.96 x 0.0632
= 0.124
Step-by-step explanation:
this question has the sample size, n = 40
8 people have received help from their parents from this sample.
8/40 = 0.2
which is the sample proportion
z = 1 - 0.2
= 0.8
to calculate standard error
√pz/n
= √0.2 x 0.8/40
= √0.16/40
= 0.0632
at 95% confidence level
z(alpha/2) = 1.96
therefore the margin of error
= 1.96 x 0.0632
= 0.124

Students at the Akademia Podlaka conducted an experiment to determine whether the Belgium-minted Euro coin was equally likely to land heads up or tails up. Coins were spun on a smooth surface, and in 350 spins, 163 landed with the heads side up. Should the students interpret this result as convincing evidence that the proportion of the time the coin would land heads is not 0.5?
Complete question is;
Students at the Akademia Podlaka conducted an experiment to determine whether the Belgium-minted Euro coin was equally likely to land heads up or tails up. Coins were spun on a smooth surface, and in 350 spins, 163 landed with the heads side up. Should the students interpret this result as convincing evidence that the proportion of the time the coin would land heads is not 0.5?
Test the relevant hypotheses using α = 0.01
Answer:
The Test result doesn't support the claim that proportion of the time the coin would land heads is not 0.5. Rather it supports the the probability to be 0.5. So the students shouldn't interpret this result as convincing evidence that the proportion of the time the coin would land heads is not 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The hypotheses would be;
Null hypothesis; H0: p = 0.5
Alternative hypothesis; Ha: p ≠ 0.5
We are given, X = 163 and n = 350
Thus; p^ = X/n = 163/350 = 0.4657
Since we are not given standard deviation, we will use test statistic formula;
Z = (p^ - p)/(√(p(1 - p)/n)
Z = (0.4657 - 0.5)/(√(0.5(1 - 0.5)/350)
Z = -1.28
From online P-value from T-score calculator as attached, we have;
p-value = 0.201395.
Since the p-value is > 0.01, it's not significant and so we will fail to reject the null hypothesis H0.
We will conclude that the Test result supports the conclusion that p = 0.5
Arbitron Media Research Inc. conducted a study of the iPod listening habits of men and women. One facet of the study involved the mean listening time. It was discovered that the mean listening time for a sample of 13 men was 35 minutes per day. The standard deviation was 8 minutes per day. The mean listening time for a sample of 11 women was also 35 minutes, but the standard deviation of the sample was 18 minutes. Use a two-tailed test and at 0.10 significance level, can we conclude that there is a difference in the variation in the listening times for men and women?
Answer:
Since the critical f-value of the test statistic is less than the f value of 2.9130, we will fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there's no sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in the variation in the listening times for men and women
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Sample size for men; n1 = 13
Sample size for women; n2 = 11
standard deviation for men; s1 = 8 minutes
Standard deviation for women; s2 = 18 minutes.
Significance level; α = 0.1
Let's state the hypothesis;
Null hypothesis;H0: (μ1)² = (μ2)²
Alternative hypothesis;Ha: (μ1)² ≠ (μ2)²
The value of the test statistic would be;
F = (s1)²/(s2)²
F = 8²/18² = 0.1975
Now, degree of freedom for n1 is;
DF1 = n1 - 1
DF1 = 13 - 1
DF1 = 12
Also, degree of freedom for n2 is;
DF2 = 11 - 1
DF2 = 10
Now, since it's two tailed, we will make use of α/2 for the F-distribution table.
Thus, α/2 = 0.1/2 = 0.05
So,from the f-table attached, at df1 = 12 and df2 = 10,the F-Critical value is;
F_α/2 = 2.9130
Since,the critical f-value of the test statistic is less than 2.9130, we will fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there's no sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in the variation in the listening times for men and women

Given the equations, which of the following represents z1 * z2? Using the same values in #6, which of the following represents z1/z2 in standard form?
The selected answers are incorrect.
Answer:
First Attachment : Option A,
Second Attachment : Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that,
z₁ = [tex]3(\cos ((\pi )/(6))+i\sin ((\pi )/(6)))[/tex] and z₂ = [tex]4(\cos ((\pi )/(3))+i\sin ((\pi )/(3)))[/tex]
Therefore if we want to determine z₁( z₂ ), we would have to find the trigonometric form of the following expression,
[tex]3(\cos ((\pi )/(6))+i\sin ((\pi )/(6)))*4(\cos ((\pi )/(3))+i\sin ((\pi )/(3)))[/tex]
( Combine expressions )
= [tex]12(\cos ( \pi /6+\pi / 3 ) + i\sin (\pi /6 +\pi / 3 )[/tex]
( Let's now add [tex]\pi / 6 + \pi / 3[/tex], further simplifying this expression )
[tex]\frac{\pi }{6}+\frac{\pi }{3} = \frac{\pi }{6}+\frac{\pi 2}{6} = \frac{\pi +\pi 2}{6} = \frac{3\pi }{6} = \pi / 2[/tex]
( Substitute )
[tex]12(\cos ( \pi /2 ) + i\sin ( \pi /2 ) )[/tex]
And therefore the correct solution would be option a, for the first attachment.
______________________________________________
For this second attachment, we would have to solve for the following expression,
[tex]\frac{3\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi \:}{6}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi \:}{6}\right)\right)}{4\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi \:}{3}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi \:}{3}\right)\right)}[/tex]
From which we know that cos(π/6) = √3 / 2, sin(π/6) = 1 / 2, cos(π/3) = 1 / 2, and sin(π/3) = √3 / 2. Therefore,
[tex]\:\frac{3\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{6}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{6}\right)\right)}{4\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{3}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{3}\right)\right)}:\quad \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-i\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-i\frac{3}{8} = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-\frac{3}{8}i[/tex]
Our solution for the second attachment will be option c.
Answer 9 and 11 with explanation on how you solved it.
Answer:
(9). Range; {8, 5, 2, -1, -4}
(10). Range; {-15, -7, 1, 9, 17}
Step-by-step explanation:
Domain of a function is (x-values) determined by the input values and Range of a function is determined by the (y-values) output values of the function.
(9). For the given function,
f(x) = -3x + 2
If the Domain of this function is a set of values,
{-2, -1, 0, 1, 2}
For Range,
x -2 -1 0 1 2
f(x) 8 5 2 -1 -4
Therefore, Range of the function 'f' will be; {8, 5, 2, -1, -4}
(11). f(x) = 4x + 1
Domain is {-4, -2, 0, 2, 4}
Table for input-output values will be,
x -4 -2 0 2 4
f(x) -15 -7 1 9 17
Therefore, Range of the function will be {-15, -7, 1, 9, 17}
. One sample has M = 18 and a second sample has M = 14. If the pooled variance for the two samples is 16, what is the value of Cohen’s d?
Answer:
Cohen's d : 1.00
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that M₁ = 18, and M₂ = 14. Given that the pooled variance for the these two samples are 16, S²Pooled = 16, and therefore S - pooled = 4.
The formula to solve for the value of Cohen's d is as follows,
d = M₁ - M₂ / S - pooled,
d = 18 - 14 / 4 = 4 / 4 = 1
Therefore the value of Cohen's d = 1

1. In 1995, Diana read 10 English books and 7 French books. In 1996, she read twice as many French books as English books. If 60% of the books that she read during the 2 years were French, how many English and French books did she read in 1996?
(A) 16
(B) 26
(0) 32
(D) 48
Answer:
(D) 48
Step-by-step explanation:
Let English book = x
Let french book = y
In 1995 x= 10
Y= 7
In 1996
Y = 2x
Total book read in the two years
0.6(Total) = y
0.4(total) = x
We don't know the exact amount of books read in 1996.
Total = 10 + 7 +x +2x
Total = 17+3x
0.6(total) = 7+2x
0.6(17+3x) = 7+2x
10.2 +1.8x= 7+2x
10.2-7= 2x-1.8x
3.2= 0.2x
3.2/0.2= x
16= x
So she read 16 English book
And 16*2 = 32 french book Making it a total of 16+32= 48 books in 1996

In recent years, the interest rates on home mortgages have declined to less than 6%. However, a
recent study shows that the rate charged on credit card debt is more than 14%. A sample of 10 credit
cards showed that the mean rate charged is 15.64% with a standard deviation of 1.561%. At 1% level
of significance, is it reasonable to conclude the mean rate charged is greater than 14%?
Answer:
Yes it is reasonable to conclude the mean rate charged is greater than 14%
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population mean is [tex]\mu = 0.14[/tex]
The sample size is [tex]n = 10[/tex]
The sample mean is [tex]\= x = 0.1564[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 0.01561[/tex]
The level of significance is [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]
The null hypothesis is [tex]H_o: \mu = 0.14[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_a : \mu > 0.14[/tex]
Generally the test statistic is mathematically represented as
[tex]t = \frac{ \= x - \mu }{ \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]t = \frac{ 0.1564 - 0.14 }{ \frac{0.01561 }{\sqrt{10} } }[/tex]
[tex]t = 3.322[/tex]
Now the p-value obtained from the z-table is
[tex]p-value = P(t > 3.322) = 0.00044687[/tex]
Since the [tex]p-value < \alpha[/tex] then we reject the null hypothesis, hence we can conclude that the mean rate charged is greater than 14%

Th
(Rd
Answer:
5.215 units (rounded up to three decimal places)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the distance between points (3.1 , 0.3) and (2.7, -4.9)
We use the Pythagoras Theorem which states that for a right triangle of sides a,b and c then;
a² + b² = c² , Where c is the hypotenuse.
In our case, the distance between the two points is the hypotenuse of triangle formed by change in y-axis and change in x-axis.
The distance (hypotenuse) squared = (-4.9 - 0.3)² + (2.7 - 3.1)² = 27.04 + 0.16 = 27.2
Hypotenuse (the distance between) = [tex]\sqrt{27.2}[/tex] = 5.215 units (rounded up to three decimal places)

Prove that the statement (ab)^n=a^n * b^n is true using mathematical induction.
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
(ab)^n=a^n * b^n
We need to show that it is true for n=1
assuming that it is true for n = k;
(ab)^n=a^n * b^n
( ab) ^1 = a^1 * b^1
ab = a * b
ab = ab
Then we need to show that it is true for n = ( k+1)
or (ab)^(k+1)=a^( k+1) * b^( k+1)
Starting with
(ab)^k=a^k * b^k given
Multiply each side by ab
ab * (ab)^k= ab *a^k * b^k
( ab) ^ ( k+1) = a^ ( k+1) b^ (k+1)
Therefore, the rule is true for every natural number n
Hello, n being an integer, we need to prove that one statement depending on n is true, let's note it S(n).
The mathematical induction involves two steps:
Step 1 - We need to prove S(1), meaning that the statement is true for n = 1
Step 2 - for k integer > 1, we assume S(k) and we need to prove that S(k+1) is true.
Imagine that you are a painter and you need to paint all the trees on one side of a road. You have several colours that you can use but you are asked to follow two rules:
Rule 1 - You need to paint the first tree in white.
Rule 2 - If one tree is white you have to paint the next one in white too.
What colour do you think all the trees will be painted?
Do you see why this is very important to prove the two steps as well ?
Let's do it in this example.
Step 1 - for n = 1, let's prove that S(1) is true, meaning [tex](ab)^1=a\cdot b =a^1\cdot b^1[/tex]
So the statement is true for n = 1
Step 2 - Let's assume that this is true for k, and we have to prove that this is true for k+1
So we assume S(k), meaning that [tex](ab)^k=a^k\cdot b^k[/tex]
and what about S(k+1), meaning [tex](ab)^{k+1}=a^{k+1}\cdot b^{k+1}[/tex] ?
We will use the fact that this is true for k,
[tex](ab)^{k+1}=(ab)\cdot (ab)^k =(ab) \cdot a^k \cdot b^k[/tex]
We can write it because the statement at k is true and then we can conclude.
[tex](ab)^{k+1}=(ab)\cdot (ab)^k =(ab) \cdot a^k \cdot b^k=a^{k+1}\cdot b^{k+1}[/tex]
In conclusion, we have just proved that S(n) is true for any n integer greater or equal to 1, meaning [tex](ab)^{n}=a^{n}\cdot b^{n}[/tex]
Hope this helps.

It is assumed that six people will attend the theater together and sit in a row of six.
The following are the various ways they can be seated in a row together:
⇒ 6!
⇒ 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1
⇒ 720
If the doctor sits in the aisle seat, the remaining 5 persons can sit in the remaining 5 seats 5! ways
The total possibilities are as follows:
⇒ 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1
= 120
Consider that the six persons are made up of three married couples.
In addition to the aforementioned, divide the six chairs into three groups of two seats each.
There is one choice in each block for the husband to be placed on the left and the wife to be positioned on the right and the 3 couples can be seated in the 3 blocks in 3! ways.
⇒ 3 × 2 × 1
The required answer is 6.
Thus, there are 720 ways they can be seated in a row together, 120 ways can the people be seated together in a row with the doctor in an aisle seat, and 6 ways can the six be seated together in a row.

Given a dataset with the following properties:
mean = 50
median = 40
standard deviation = 5
What is the shape of the distribution?
Answer:
The distribution is positively skewed.
Step-by-step explanation:
A measure of skewness is defined in such a way that the measure should always be zero when the distribution is symmetric and measure should be a pure number i.e independent of origin and units of measurement.
The shape of the distribution can be found by finding the coefficient of skewness.
The coefficient of skewness can be found by
Sk= 3(Mean-Median)/ Standard Deviation
Sk= 3( 50-40)5= 30/5=6
The shape will be positively skewed.
In a positively skewed distribution the mean > median > mode. It has a long right tail.
Using the skewness formula, it is found that the distribution is right-skewed.
------------------
The skewness of a data-set with mean M, median [tex]M_e[/tex] and standard deviation s is given by:[tex]S = \frac{3(M - M_e)}{s}[/tex]
If |S| < 0.5, the distribution is said to be symmetric.If S <-0.5, the distribution is left-skewed.If S > 0.5, the distribution is right-skewed.------------------
Mean of 50, thus, [tex]M = 50[/tex]Median of 40, thus [tex]M_e = 40[/tex]Standard deviation of 5, thus, [tex]s = 5[/tex]The coefficient is:
[tex]S = \frac{3(M - M_e)}{s} = \frac{3(50 - 40)}{5} = \frac{30}{5} = 6[/tex]
Thus, the distribution is right-skewed.

A bag contains 6 red marbles, 3 blue marbles and 1 green marble. What is the probability that a randomly selected marble is not blue?
Answer:
3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
6+3+1=10
since there are 3 blue marbles, we put the 3 into the place of the numerator
and since there is 10 marbles in total it goes into the denominator
The probability that a randomly selected marble is not blue will be 0.70.
What is probability?Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.
A bag contains 6 red marbles, 3 blue marbles and 1 green marble.
The total number of the event will be
Total event = 6 + 3 + 1
Total event = 10
Then the probability that a randomly selected marble is not blue will be
Favorable event = 7 {red, green}
Then the probability will be
P = 7 / 10
P = 0.70
