a. 2/6
b. 5/6
c. 10/15
d. 16/15

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]5(3x-2)=6\\15x-10=6\\15x=16\\x=\frac{16}{15}[/tex]

Answer 2

Answer:

D.) 16/15

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve we must first distribute the 5 to everything that is inside the parenthesis. To do this we can multiply 5×3x = 15x     and      5×-2 = -10.We can then combine these new numbers and set them equal to 6.

5(3x-2) ---> 15x-10=6

From here we need to get the x on one side all alone. To do this we need to first move the -10. We can add 10 to both sides.

15x=6+10

Simplify...

15x=16

Then we can divide both sides by 15 to get x alone

x=16/15

Element X is a radioactive isotope such that every 26 years, its mass decreases by half. Given that the initial mass of a sample of Element X is 390 grams, how long would it be until the mass of the sample reached 260 grams, to the nearest tenth of a year?​

Answers

Answer:

It will take 15.029 years for element X to reach mass of 260 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The half life period of radioactive element X is 26 years

The initial mass of radioactive element X is 260 grams

Elapsed time = half life * log (beginning amount /ending amount)/log 2

Substituting the given values, we get

Elapsed time = 26 * log (390/260)/log 2

=  15.209 years

Solve the system of equations x - y = 12 and x + 7y = -20 by combining the
equations.

Answers

Answer:

x=16, y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

-1(x-y=12)

x+7y=-20

-x+y=-12

x+7y=-20

8y=-32

y=-4

x-4=12

x=16

Answer:

x= 8, y= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

You can subtract one equation by another to eliminate x

(x-y)-(x+7y)=12-(-20)

-8y = 32

y= -4

Substitute y =  -4 in the first equation:

x-(-4) = 12

x =8

Answer:

25π or 78.5mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]A=3.14*5^{2} \\ =3.14*25\\ =78.5[/tex]

Answer:

78.5 mm² or answer D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a circle is

A = π*r²

Now we can rewrite with the radius. *Note* I am using 3.14 for pi to make it easier*

A = π*5²

Solve

5² = 25

25 * 3.14 = 78.5

Now since the measurements were done in millimeters, we will add mm to the end.

Also since it is area, we need to add ²

78.5 mm²

Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 21% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%. Use the 0.01 significance level to test that claim.

Answers

Answer:

The pvalue of the test is 0.0784 > 0.01, which means that at this significance level, we do not reject the null hypothesis that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%.

This means that the null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{0}: p = 0.29[/tex]

We want to test the hypothesis that this is true, so the alternate hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{a}: p \neq 0.29[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.29 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.29, \sigma = \sqrt{0.29*0.71}[/tex]

Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 21% of them are blue.

This means that [tex]n = 100, X = 0.21[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.21 - 0.29}{\frac{\sqrt{0.29*0.71}}{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -1.76[/tex]

Pvalue of the test:

The pvalue of the test is the probability of the sample proportion differing at least 0.21 - 0.29 = 0.08 from the population proportion, which is 2 multiplied by the pvalue of Z = -1.76.

Looking at the z-table, z = -1.76 has a pvalue of 0.0392

2*0.0392 = 0.0784

The pvalue of the test is 0.0784 > 0.01, which means that at this significance level, we do not reject the null hypothesis that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%.

n a study to investigate whether vitamin C will prevent colds, 400 subjects are assigned at random to one of two groups. The experimental group takes a vitamin C tablet daily, while the control group takes a placebo. At the end of the experiment, the researchers calculate the difference between the percentage of subjects in the two groups who were free of colds. This difference is statistically significant (P=0.03) in favor of the vitamin C group.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The aim of this question is to see if we can infer and conclude that vitamin C has a good impact in preventing colds based on the evidence provided.

Null hypothesis: Vitamin C has no effect on preventing colds.

Alternative hypothesis: Vitamin C has a strong effect on preventing colds.

Assuming, significance level = 0.05

Since the p-value for the difference is 0.03 which is less than 0.05.

Hence, the null hypothesis is rejected (which is there is no effect of vitamin C).

As a result, it can be concluded that Vitamin C has a major impact on the prevention of colds.
