Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: Choice B

Positive, because the products (-5)(-3) and (-8)(-6) are positive, and the product of two positive numbers is positive

=======================================================

Explanation:

Recall we have these rules

  • positive times positive = positive
  • positive times negative = negative
  • negative times negative = positive

Here is one example for each rule

  • 8*7 = 56
  • 5*(-9) = -45
  • -2*(-4) = 8

So based on that, we know that (-5)(-3) is positive. The two negatives cancel each other out so to speak. The same goes for (-8)(-6). Then multiplying any two positive numbers produces another positive outcome.

What is inequality?

A relationship between two expressions or values that are not equal to each other is called inequality.

Given is a graph of inequalities, y <  1/3x-1 and y < 1/3-3

The solution of the inequality A is the shaded area below the solid blue line and the solution of the inequality B is the shaded area below the solid red line,

That means all the solutions of inequality B will satisfy the inequality A also.

Hence, The solution of the system of linear inequalities is All values that satisfy y<1/3-3 are solutions. (option 2)

Answer:

17.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The half life of this element is five days.

For the first five days it will decrease to 100*0.5=50%.

For the second five days it will decrease to 50*0.5= 25%

For the third five days it will decrease to 25*0.5 = 12.25%

It means in each day in the five days it reduce 0.1 of the it's remaining amount.

12.5 - 9 = 3.5 %

0.5 of 12.5 = 6.25%

It's going to be 15 days + 2.5 days= 17.5 days

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Research.

n=9 frail elderly were interview and compared to a fictitious person who was worse off then the interviewee, a life-satisfaction score was determined for each person.

18, 23, 24, 22, 19, 27, 23, 26, 25

Assuming that the population average score is μ= 20, the researchers think that the elderly in the sample are more or less satisfied than others in the general population.

a. You have the information of one sample, assuming this sample has a normal distribution and each elderly interviewed is independent, then the t-test of choice is a one-sample t-test.

b. and c. If you say that the elderly are "more or less" satisfied than the others, this means that they are either as satisfied as to the general population or not satisfied as to the general population. Symbolically:

H₀: μ = 20

H₁: μ ≠ 20

This is a two-tailed test, meaning, you will have two critical regions.

d.  

α: 0.05

Left critical value: t_(n-1;/\alpha 2) = t_(8; 0.025)= -2.306

Right critical value: t_(n-1;1-\alpha /2) = t_(8;0.975) = 2.306

e.

t_(H_0)= (X[bar]-Mu)/((S)/(√(n) ) ) ~t_(n-1)

X[bar]= 23

S= 3

t_(H_0)= (23-20)/((3)/(√(9) ) )= 3

f.

Considering that the calculated t-value is greater than the right critical value, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis, so using a significance level of 5% you can conclude that the average life-satisfaction score of the elderly is different than 20.

I hope it helps!

25-foot long board is to be cut into two parts. The longer part is one foot more than twice the shorter part. How long is each part?

Answers

To solve this problem you must apply the following proccedure:

 1. You have that 25-foot long board is to be cut into two parts. Then, the first equation is:

 a+b=25

 2. 
The longer part is one foot more than twice the shorter part:

 a=1+2b

 3. The system of equation is:

 a+b=25
 a=1+2b

 4. When you solve it, you obtain:

 a=25-b

 25-b=1+2b
 25-1=2b+b
 24/3=b
 b=8 ft

 a=1+2(8)
 a=17 ft

A farmer owns 30 acres of land on which he wishes to grow corn and barely. The cost per acre for seedcorn is $30, and the cost per acre for barely seed is $20. The farmer can invest a maximum of $600 in seed for the two crops. During the cultivation process, the farmer needs to spray fertilizers and insecticides specific to each crop. This costs $10 per acre for corn and $15 per acre for barely. He can invest only $400 in this process.A) Write the two inequalities that are deciding factors for the number of acres of each crop the farmer will plant, based on the amount of money the farmer will spend on planting and cultivating the two crops.

100 point question.......

Answers

Answer:

4 and 8/21

Step-by-step explanation:

w-5/7=3 2/3

Find 3 2/3 + 5/7

3 2/3 + 5/7 = 3 14/21 + 15/21 = 3 29/21 = 4 8/21

W= 4 8/21

Answer:

w = 92/21

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Convert into improper fractions

5/7 -> 5/7

3 2/3 -> 3 * 3/3 + 2/3 -> 9/3 + 2/3 -> 11/3

Step 2:  Make common denominator

5/7 * 3/3 -> 15/21

11/3 * 7/7 -> 77/21

Step 3:  Add 15/21 to both sides

w - 15/21 + 15/21 = 77/21 + 15/21

w = 92/21

Answer:  w = 92/21
