Answer:
18 pounds of cashews are needed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
A manager bought 12 pounds of peanuts for $30.
Price of peanut per pound P = $30/12 = $2.5
Price of cashew per pound C = $5
Price of mixed nut per pound M = $4
Let x represent the proportion of peanut in the mixed nut.
The proportion of cashew will then be y = (1-x), so;
xP + (1-x)C = M
Substituting the values;
x(2.5) + (1-x)5 = 4
2.5x + 5 -5x = 4
2.5x - 5x = 4 -5
-2.5x = -1
x = 1/2.5 = 0.4
Proportion of cashew is;
y = 1-x = 1-0.4 = 0.6
For 12 pounds of peanut the corresponding pounds of cashew needed is;
A = 12/x × y
A = 12/0.4 × 0.6 = 18 pounds
18 pounds of cashews are needed.

A member of the hotel's accounting staff noticed that the total charges for guest bills have been increasing in recent months. The accountant will use a sample of future weekend guest bills to test the manager's claim.a. Which form of the hypotheses should be used to test the manager's claim
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete. The complete question is
The manager of the Danvers-Hilton Resort Hotel stated that the mean guest bill for a weekend is $600 or less. A member of the hotel’s accounting staff noticed that the total charges for guest bills have been increasing in recent months. The accountant will use a sample of
weekend guest bills to test the manager’s claim.
a. Which form of the hypotheses should be used to test the manager’s claim? Explain.
1) H0:μ ≥ 600
Ha:μ < 600
2) H0:μ ≤ 600
Ha:μ > 600
3) H0:μ=600
Ha:μ≠600
b. What conclusion is appropriate when H0 cannot be rejected?
c. What conclusion is appropriate when H0 can be rejected?
Solution:
a) the hypotheses should be used to test the manager’s claim is
H0:μ ≤ 600
Ha:μ > 600
This is because the already known or assumed mean guest bill for a weekend is 600 or less. This forms the null hypothesis. The alternative is the opposite of the null hypothesis. Since the alternative states that it is increasing, the sign,> would be used.
b) If H0 cannot be rejected, it means that there is no sufficient evidence to reject H0 at the given level of significance.
c) if H0 can be rejected, it means that there is sufficient evidence to reject H0 at the given level of significance.

Good luck on your assignment
Answer:
x = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 8 - 3x = -10
Rearrange.
5x - 3x + 8 = -10
Subtract like terms.
2x + 8 = -10
Subtract 8 on both sides.
2x = -10 - 8
2x = -18
Divide 2 into both sides.
x = -18/2
x = -9
Use the multiplication rule for independent event probabilities. Two friends are both pregnant, and find out they are each expecting twins! Let A be the event that one friend is pregnant with identical twins, and note that P(A) = 0.0045. Let B be the event that the other friend is pregnant with fraternal twins, and note that P(B)= 0.01. A and B are independent events. What is the probability that one friend is pregnant with identical twins, and one friend is pregnant with fraternal twins? Give your answer as a percent, rounded to four decimal places if necessary.
Answer:
We have to multiply P(A) and P(B) which is 0.0045 * 0.01 * 100 (to make it a percentage) = 0.0045%.
Management at a home improvement store randomly selected 45 customers and observed their shopping habits. They recorded the number of items each of the customers purchased as well as the total time the customers spent in the store. Identify the types of variables recorded by the managers of the home improvement store.
Answer:
c. number of items - discrete; total time - continuous
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete due to the lack of the following options:
to. number of items - continuous; total time - discrete
b. number of items - continuous; total time - continuous
c. number of items - discrete; total time - continuous
d. number of items - discrete; total time - discrete
Knowing this, the type of variables recorded by managers of the home improvement store are,
c. number of items - discrete; total time - continuous
Discrete variables are those that are well defined and in the finite set of values and continuous variables are variables that can take a value between any of the other two values.
A baseball player swings and hits a pop fly straight up in the air to the catcher. The height of the baseball in meters t seconds after it is hit is given by the quadratic function h(t)= -4.9t^2 + 9.8t + 1. How long does it take for the baseball to reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height obtained by the baseball?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
max can be found by the formula:
t=-b/2a
t=-9.8/2*(-4.9)
t=-9.8/-9.8
t=1
1 sec
to find maximum height obtained we find the vertex:
plug in 1 for t and simply solve:
h(t)= -4.9t^2 + 9.8t + 1
h(t)= -4.9*1^2 + 9.8*1 + 1
h(t)= -4.9*1 + 9.8 + 1
h(t)= -4.9 + 10.8
h(t)= 5.9
height is 5.9
Fill out the tables for each scenario and answer the question that follows. Use $7.25 as the minimum wage and remember that employees in the United States must be paid time-and-a-half (1.5 times the normal hourly rate) for each hour worked over 40 hours per week
Answer:
see below for the table valuesUS labor cost: $115275 per yearStep-by-step explanation:
The labor charge is for (6 days/week). In Mongolia, the charge per laborer is then ...
(6 days/week)($1.10/day) = $6.60/week
The three laborers working 50 weeks/year will have a labor cost of ...
(3 laborers)($6.60/week/laborer)(50 weeks/year) = $990/year
__
In the US, the labor charge per person per week is ...
(14 hr/day)(6 day/week) = 84 hr/week
That's 40 hours of straight pay and 44 hours of overtime pay, or ...
7.25(40 +1.5(44)) = 7.25(106) = 768.50
For 150 person-weeks per year, the total US labor charge is ...
($768.50/person/week)(3 persons)(50 weeks/year) = $115,275/year
__
The materials cost for a year is ...
($50/rug)(12 rugs/year) = $600/year
__
The revenue is ...
($2000/rug)(12 rugs/year) = $24,000/year
Profit is the difference between revenue and the total of costs:
profit = $24,000 -($990 +600 +10000) = $12410 . . . made in Mongolia
__
So, the table gets filled as follows:
(labor, material, fixed cost, revenue, profit)
Mongolian-made
($990, $600, $10000, $24000, $12410)
US-made
($115275, $600, $10000, $24000, -$101,875)
The US labor cost would be $115,275.
_____
Comment
For the given selling price, the break-even labor cost is about $1.06 per hour (on average). At US labor rates, the break-even selling price is about $10,490 per rug.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The blood platelet counts of a group of women have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 255.4 and a standard deviation of 63.9. (All units are 1000 cells/muL.) Using the empirical rule, find each approximate percentage below. a. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 3 standard deviations of the mean, or between 63.7 and 447.1? b. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts between 191.5 and 319.3?
Answer:
a) From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data
b) [tex] P(191.5<X<319.5)[/tex]
We can find the number of deviations from the mean for the limits using the z score formula given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{191.5-255.4}{63.9}= -1[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{319.3-255.4}{63.9}= 1[/tex]
So we have values within 1 deviation from the mean and using the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values for this case
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following properties for the random variable of interest "blood platelet counts"
[tex]\mu = 255.4[/tex] represent the mean
[tex]\sigma = 63.9[/tex] represent the population deviation
Part a
From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data
Part b
We want this probability:
[tex] P(191.5<X<319.5)[/tex]
We can find the number of deviations from the mean for the limits using the z score formula given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{191.5-255.4}{63.9}= -1[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{319.3-255.4}{63.9}= 1[/tex]
So we have values within 1 deviation from the mean and using the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values for this case

YOU HAVE TO CLICK THE TRIANGLE TO EE IT BETTER, JUST IN CASE ON THE TOP LEFT SIDE IT IS 8IN AND THE BOTTOM OF THE TRIANGLE IS 10 IN
Answer: D) 8 inches
====================================================
Work Shown:
Refer to the diagram below.
A = 50 degrees
B = unknown
C = 80 degrees
-----
For any triangle, the three angles always add to 180
A+B+C = 180
50+B+80 = 180
B+130 = 180
B = 180-130
B = 50 degrees
Since angles B and C are the same measure, their opposite sides are the same length. Triangle ABC is isosceles. Therefore, a = x = 8
Answer: D) 8 inches.
Step-by-step explanation: The triangle has three angles: two were given (50º and 80º) and the other one can be calculated (50º). Therefore, this triangle is an isosceles triangle, it has one base and two congruent sides. Since the one side is 8in, then the other missing side must also be 8in according to the Isosceles Triangle Theorem.

Make the appropriate conclusion. Choose the correct answer below. A. RejectReject H0. There is insufficientinsufficient evidence at the alphaαequals=0.100.10 level of significance to conclude that the true mean heart rate during laughter exceeds 7171 beats per minute. B. Do not rejectDo not reject H0. There is insufficientinsufficient evidence at the alphaαequals=0.100.10 level of significance to conclude that the true mean heart rate during laughter exceeds 7171 beats per minute. C. RejectReject H0. There is sufficientsufficient evidence at the alphaαequals=0.100.10 level of significance to conclude that the true mean heart rate during laughter exceeds 7171 beats per minute. D. Do not rejectDo not reject H0. There is sufficientsufficient evidence at the alphaαequals=0.100.10 level of significance to conclude that the true mean heart rate during laughter exceeds 7171 beats per minute.
Answer:
a) Option D is correct.
H0: μ = 71
Ha: μ > 71
b) Option F is correct
z > 1.28
c) z = 2.85
d) Option C is correct.
Reject H0.There is sufficient evidence at the α = 0.10 level of significance to conclude that the true mean heart rate during laughter exceeds 71 beats per minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) For hypothesis testing, the first thing to define is the null and alternative hypothesis.
The null hypothesis plays the devil's advocate and usually takes the form of the opposite of the theory to be tested. It usually contains the signs =, ≤ and ≥ depending on the directions of the test.
While, the alternative hypothesis usually confirms the the theory being tested by the experimental setup. It usually contains the signs ≠, < and > depending on the directions of the test.
This question aims to test the the true mean heart rate during laughter exceeds 71 beats per minute.
Hence, the null hypothesis is that there isn't sufficient evidence to say that the true mean heart rate during laughter exceeds 71 beats per minute. That is, the true mean doesn't exceed 71 beats per minute.
And the alternative hypothesis is that there is sufficient evidence to say that the true mean heart rate during laughter exceeds 71 beats per minute.
Mathematically,
The null hypothesis is represented as
H₀: μ = 71
The alternative hypothesis is represented as
Hₐ: μ > 71
b) Using z-distribution, the rejection area is obtained from the confidence level at which the test is going to be performed. Since the hypothesis test tests only in one direction,
Significance level = (100% - confidence level)/2
0.10 = 10% = (100% - confidence level)/2
20% = 100% - (confidence level)
Confidence level = 100% - 20% = 80%
Critical value for 80% confidence level = 1.28
And since we are testing if the true mean heart rate during laughter exceeds 71 beats per minute, the rejection area would be
z > 1.28
c) The test statistic is given as
z = (x - μ)/σₓ
x = sample mean = 73.4
μ = 71
σₓ = standard error = (σ/√n)
σ = 8
n = Sample size = 90
σₓ = (8/√90) = 0.8433
z = (73.4 - 71) ÷ 0.8433
z = 2.846 = 2.85
d) Since the z-test statistic obtained, 2.85, is firmly in the rejection area, z > 1.28, we reject the null hypothesis, accept the alternative hypothesis and say that there is sufficient evidence at the α = 0.10 level of significance to conclude that the true mean heart rate during laughter exceeds 71 beats per minute.

What is the area of the trapezoid below? Select one: a. 88 cm2 b. 44√3 cm2 c. 65 cm2 d. 36√3 cm2
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are not given the height of the trapezoid, we can split this into a triangle and a rectangle. We find the area of each and then add them together. In order to do so, we must use Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing length so that we can find the area.
a²+b²=c²
a²+4²=8²
a²+16=64
a²=48
a=√48
a=4√3
Now that we know the missing length of the triangle, we can find the area of the triangle and the rectangle.
Triangle
A=1/2bh
A=1/2(4)(4√3)
A=8√3
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rectangle
A=lw
A=7(4√3)
A=28√3
With our areas, we can add them together.
4√3+28√3=36√3 cm²

Heidi looks at the donkeys and
tourists. She counts 50 heads
and 114 legs.
How many donkeys are there?
o
ANSWER:
O The retired question
Answer:
7 donkeys
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A system consisting of donkeys and tourists
Heads = 50
Legs = 114
Required
Calculate number of donkeys.
Represent donkeys with D and tourists with T.
By means of identification; donkeys and tourists (human) both have 1 head.
This implies that
Number of Heads = D + T
50 = D + T ----- Equation 1
While each donkey have 4 legs, each tourists have 2 legs.
This implies that
Number of legs = 4D + 2T
114 = 4D + 2T ---- Multiply both sides by ½
114 * ½ = (4D + 2T) * ½
57 = 4D * ½ + 2T * ½
57 = 2D + T ----- Equation 2
Subtract equation 1 from 2
57 = 2D + T
- (50 = D + T)
---------------------
57 - 50 = 2D - D + T - T
7 = D
Recall that D represents the number of donkeys.
So, D = 7 implies that
The total number of donkeys are 7

A corporation must appoint a​ president, chief executive officer​ (CEO), chief operating officer​ (COO), and chief financial officer​ (CFO). It must also appoint a planning committee with four different members. There are 13 qualified​ candidates, and officers can also serve on the committee. A. How many different ways can the officers be​ appointed?B. How many different ways can the committee be​ appointed?
C. What is the probability of randomly selecting the committee members and getting the four youngest of the qualified​candidates?
Answer:
A) 715 ways
B) 715 ways
C) (1/715)
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a permutation and combination problem.
Since we want to select a number of people from a larger number of people, we use combination as the order of selection isn't important now.
A) How many different ways can the officers be appointed?
There are 4 officer positions.
There are 13 people in total.
We want to select 4 people from 13
Number of ways to select 4 people from 13 = ¹³C₄ = 715
B) How many different ways can the committee be appointed?
Number of committee members = 4
Total number of people available = 13
Number of ways to select 4 people from 13 = ¹³C₄ = 715
C) What is the probability of randomly selecting the committee members and getting the four youngest of the qualified candidates?
Selecting a group of the youngest candidates is just 1 amongst the total number of ways the 4 committee members can be picked,
Hence, the required probability = (1/715)
