Mariah spent $9.50 on 9 pounds of limes and pears. Limes cost $0.50 per pound and pears cost $1.50 per pound. Let l be the number of pounds of limes and let p be the number of pounds of pears.

The system of linear equations that models this scenario is:

l + p = 9

0.5l + 1.5p = 9.5

How many pounds of each type of fruit did she buy?


Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4 pounds of lime and 5 pounds of pears

Step-by-step explanation:

I + P = 9

0.5l + 1.5P = 9.5

I = 9 - P

0.5(9 - P) + 1.5P = 9.5

4.5-0.5P + 1.5P = 9.5

4.5 + P (1P) = 9.5

P = 9.5-4.5 = 5

I = 9 - 5 = 4

Answer: 4 pounds of lime and 5 pounds of pears

Employment statistics in the US are often based on two nationwide monthly surveys: the Current Population Survey (CPS) and the Current Employment Statistics (CES) survey. The CPS samples approximately 60,000 US households and collects the employment status, job type, and demographic information of each resident in the household. The CES survey samples 140,000 non-farm businesses and government agencies and collects the number of payrolls jobs, pay rates, and related information for each firm.

a. What is the population in the CPS survey?

b. What is the population in the CES survey?

Answers

Answer:

A. The population in the CPS survey are all US households.

B. The population in the CES survey are all the non-farm businesses and government agencies.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sample is the number of people from a whole population who actually participated in a survey. The population is the entire group of people whom the survey is meant to study. The sample is an off shoot of the population.

In the given question, the Current Population Survey is a study on the entire US households. Since every household cannot be interviewed because of the large population, a sample of 60,000 households is used.  The whole households in the United States thus form the population under study.

For the Current Employment Statistics survey, the goal is to understand employment statistics in all the non-farm businesses and government agencies. This is the population. Since the entire population cannot be studied, a sample of 140,000 is used.

A company that manufactures video cameras produces a basic model and a deluxe model. Over the past year, 41% of the cameras sold have been of the basic model. Of those buying the basic model, 31% purchase an extended warranty, whereas 48% of all deluxe purchasers do so. If you learn that a randomly selected purchaser has an extended warranty, how likely is it that he or she has a basic model

Answers

Answer:

[tex]75.6\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B be the event of buying a basic model.

Given that P(B) = 41%

Let D be the event of buying a basic model.

Given that P(D) = 1 - 41% = 59%

Let E be the event of extended warranty.

Given that:

P(E [tex]\cap[/tex] B) = 31% and

P(E [tex]\cap[/tex] D) = 48%

P(E) = P(E [tex]\cap[/tex] B) [tex]\times[/tex] P(B) + P(E [tex]\cap[/tex] D) [tex]\times[/tex] P(D)

P(E) = 31% [tex]\times[/tex] 41% + 48% [tex]\times[/tex] 59% = 0.4103

To find: P(B/E)

Formula:

[tex]P(B/E) = \dfrac{P(E \cap B)}{P(E)}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.31}{0.41}\\\Rightarrow 0.756\\\Rightarrow 75.6\%[/tex]

So, the correct answer is [tex]75.6\%[/tex].

The number of hours per week that the television is turned on is determined for each family in a sample. The mean of the data is 38 hours and the median is 34.2 hours. Twenty-four of the families in the sample turned on the television for 23 hours or less for the week. The 14th percentile of the data is 23 hours. Step 2 of 5 : Approximately how many families are in the sample? Round your answer to the nearest integer.

Answers

Answer:

There are approximately 171 families in the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentile meaning:

When a value V is said to be in the xth percentile of a set, x% of the values in the set are lower than V and (100-x)% of the values in the set are higher than V.

Twenty-four of the families in the sample turned on the television for 23 hours or less for the week. The 14th percentile of the data is 23 hours.

This means that 24 is 14% of the total number of families.

Approximately how many families are in the sample?

Using a rule of three.

24 - 0.14

x - 1

0.14x = 24

x = 24/0.14

x = 171.4

Rounding to the nearest integer

There are approximately 171 families in the sample.

Hey there! :)

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solution to the inequality, we can begin by solving for 'x':

2x + 1 ≥ 3

Subtract 1 from both sides:

2x ≥ 2

Divide both sides by 2:

x ≥ 1.

This means that the graph must contain all values of x greater or equal to one. The only number line that shows solutions greater than 1 is B.

The vertex of this parabola is at (-2,-3). When the x-value is -1, the y-value is -5. What is the coefficient of the squared expression in the parabola’s equation? A. 8 B. -8 C. -2 D. 2

Answers

Answer:

Option C is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: vertex of this parabola is at (-2,-3)

To find: coefficient of the squared expression in the parabola’s equation if the x-value is -1, the y-value is -5

Solution:

The equation of parabola is of the form [tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

Here, a is the coefficient of the squared expression in the parabola’s equation.

Put [tex](h,k)=(-2,-3)\,,\,(x,y)=(-1,-5)[/tex]

[tex]-5=a(-1+2)^2-3\\-5+3=a(1)^2\\-2=a\\a=-2[/tex]

So, the coefficient of the squared expression in the parabola’s equation is [tex]-2[/tex]

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, translation, reflection and dilation.

Dilation is the increase or decrease in size of a figure.

Triangle JKL was dilated by 1/3 with M as the center of dilation to form J'K'L'.

Given that ML' = 2.5 units, hence:

L'L = (2.5 * 3) - 2.5 = 5 units

Let f(x)=−9x+1. Match the function with the description.

The graph of g is a reflection in the y-axis of the graph of f.
The graph of g is a reflection in the x-axis of the graph of f.
The graph of g is a horizontal translation 16 units right of the graph of f.
The graph of g is a vertical translation 16 units down of the graph of f.

Answers

Answer:

I guess that we want to find the function g(x) for the 4 cases.

first, f(x) = -9*x + 1.

a) The graph of g is a reflection in the y-axis of the graph of f.

First remember: if we have the point (x,y) and we reflect it over the y-axis, we get (-x,y)

then g(x) = f(-x) = -9*-x + 1 = 9*x + 1.

b) The graph of g is a reflection in the x-axis of the graph of f.

if we have a point (x, y) and we reflect it over the x-axis, the point transforms into (x, -y)

then we have: g(x) = -f(x) = 9*x - 1

c) The graph of g is a horizontal translation 16 units right of the graph of f.

When we want to have a translation in the x-axis, we must change x by x - A.

If A is positive, this transformation moves the graph by A units to the right, in this case, A = 16.

g(x) = f(x - 16) = -9*(x - 16) + 1

d) The graph of g is a vertical translation 16 units down of the graph of f.

For vertical translations, if we want to move the graph by A units down (A positive) we should do y = f(x) - A

In this case, A = 16.

then: g(x) = f(x) - 16 = -9*x + 1 - 16 = -9*x - 15.

Lindsay needs to make some house repairs in four years that will cost $8,000. She has some money in an account earning 8% annual interest. How much money needs to be in the account today so she will have enough to pay for the repairs

Answers

Answer:

$5,882

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the money Lindsay needs today, you can use the following formula to calculate the present value:

PV=FV/(1+i)^n

PV= present value

FV= future value= $8,000

i= interest rate= 8%

n= number of periods= 4

PV= 8,000/(1+0.08)^4

PV=8,000/1.08^4

PV=8,000/1.36

PV= 5,882

According to this, Lindsay will need to have $5,882 in the account today so she will have enough to pay for the repairs in four years.
