Answer:
Let's define the variables:
S = # of sweet pepper seeds in the mix pack.
H = # of hot pepper seeds in the mix pack.
Let's suppose that $3.30 is the mean price of the seeds in the mix pack.
Then we have two equations:
S + H = 16.
(S*$2.85 + H*$4.29)/16 = $3.30
Now let's solve this system.
The first step is isolating one variable in one of the equations, i will isolate S in the first equation.
S = 16 - H.
Now we can replace this in the second equation, and solve it for H.
( (16 - H)*$2.85 + H*$4.29)/16 = $3.30
( (16 - H)*$2.85 + H*$4.29) = $3.30*16 = $52.80
$45.60 + H*$1.44 = $52.80
H*$1.44 = $52.80 - $45.60 = $7.20
H = $7.20/$1.44 = 5
Then in the mix pack there are 5 hot-pepper seeds.
And the other 11 must be sweet-pepper seeds
Algebraic equations are equations that contain unknown variables.
The number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds is 11 and the number of packets of hot-pepper seeds is 5.
Let's represent:is
The number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds = s
The number of packets of hot-pepper seeds = h
Based on this question, our system of equations are:
$2.85 x s + $4.29 x h = $3.30(16)
2.85s + 4.29h = 52.8...........Equation 1
s + h = 16...........Equation 2
s = 16 - h
We substitute 16 - h for s in Equation 1
2.85(16 - h) + 4.29h = 52.8
45.6 -2.85h + 4.29h = 52.8
Subtract 45.6 from both sides
45.6 - 45.6 -2.85h + 4.29h = 52.8 - 45.6
1.44h = 7.2
h = 5
There are 5 hot-pepper seeds in the assortment.
Solving for the number of sweet-pepper seeds.
s = 16 - h
s = 16 - 5
s = 11
There are 11 sweet-pepper seeds in the assortment.
Therefore, the number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds is 11 and the number of packets of hot-pepper seeds is 5.

2/15 = h/125 need a step by step please
====================================
Work Shown:
2/15 = h/125
2*125 = 15*h .... cross multiply
250 = 15h
15h = 250
h = 250/15
h = (5*50)/(5*3)
h = 50/3
-----------------
Extra info:
50/3 = (48+2)/3
50/3 = (48/3)+(2/3)
50/3 = 16 + (2/3)
50/3 = 16 & 2/3
The improper fraction 50/3 converts to the mixed number 16 & 2/3
Another way to see this is to use long division to get 50/3 = 16 remainder 2.

The toco toucan, the largest member of the toucan family, possesses the largest beak relative to body size of all birds. This exaggerated feature has received various interpretations, such as being a refined adaptation for feeding. However, the large surface area may also be an important mechanism for radiating heat (and hence cooling the bird) as outdoor temperature increases. Here are data for beak heat loss, as a percent of total body heat loss, at various temperatures in degrees Celsius:
Temperature (degrees Celsius) 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
Percent heat loss from beak 35 36 38 28 41 43 55 46 39 54 45 58 60 56 62 67

x ∈ [−2; 1] ∪ 3.5Step-by-step explanation:
GivenInequality: (x-1)(x+2)(2x-7)≤0
Solution:If we solve the corresponding equation (x-1)(x+2)(2x-7)²= 0, we get roots
x = -2, 1, 3.5We need to consider the following 4 intervals:
(−∞; −2), [−2; 1], (1; 3.5), (3.5; ∞)1st interval (−∞; −2)
The expression (x-1)(x+2)(2x-7)² is positive as two of the multiples are negative and one is always positive (square number), and therefore does not satisfy the inequality.2nd interval [−2; 1]
The expression is negative as only one of the multiples is negative, and therefore the interval (−1; 2) satisfies the inequality.3rd interval (1; 3.5)
The expression is positive as all the multiples are positive. Therefore, the interval (1; 3.5) also does not satisfy the inequality.4th interval
The expression is positive as above, and therefore also does not satisfy the inequality.So, the answer to the inequality is:

e. What is the basic experiment unit of study?
Answer:
Given that;
There are three high schools, each having four sections of every 24 students
the 2 types of instructions are Standard curriculum & computer based curriculum
a)
this study is experimental
this is because the study did not just observe the student's performance but randomly assign the performance to different techniques that have some certain control over the technique of teaching and then observe their performance afterwards
b)
-important factors are; high schools, instruction type and scores
- Highschool has 2 levels: level one there are three high schools, level 2 each having four sections of every 24 students
-instruction type: has one level which is divided into two namely; standard base and computer based
Scores: doesn't have levels
c)
there are 3 schools and 4 sections so the factor high school has between subjects components
factor instruction type also has between subjects because there are two different types available
there are 24 students in each section which are within subjects
d)
the score on the test is the dependent measures
e)

D. With 2% confidence, you can say that the population standard deviation is between ___ and ___ dollars per year.
Answer:
a
The confidence interval for the population variance is [tex] 5.49 < \sigma^2 < 37.02 [/tex]
The correct option is C
b
The confidence interval for the population standard deviation is [tex] 2.34 < \sigma < 6.08 [/tex]
The correct option is A
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 14
The standard deviation is [tex]s = \$3.42[/tex]
Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as
[tex]df = 14 -1[/tex]
=> [tex]df = 13 [/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 98% then that level of significance is
[tex]\alpha = (100 -98) \%[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = 0.02[/tex]
Generally the 98% confidence interval for the variance is mathematically represented as
[tex]\frac{(n- 1) s^2}{x^2 _{[\frac{\alpha }{2} , df]}} < \sigma^2 < \frac{(n- 1) s^2}{x^2 _{[1- \frac{\alpha }{2} , df]}}[/tex]
=> [tex]\frac{(14- 1) (3.42)^2}{x^2 _{[\frac{0.02 }{2} , 13]}} < \sigma^2 < \frac{(14- 1) (3.42)^2}{x^2 _{[1- \frac{0.02 }{2} , 13]}}[/tex]
From the chi -distribution table
[tex]x^2 _{[1- \frac{0.02 }{2} , 13]} = 4.107[/tex]
and
[tex]x^2 _{[\frac{0.02 }{2} , 13]} = 27.689[/tex]
So
=> [tex]\frac{(14- 1) (3.42)^2}{27.689} < \sigma^2 < \frac{(14- 1) (3.42)^2}{4.107}[/tex]
=> [tex] 5.49 < \sigma^2 < 37.02 [/tex]
Generally the 98% confidence interval for the standard deviation is mathematically represented as
[tex]\sqrt{\frac{(n- 1) s^2}{x^2 _{[\frac{\alpha }{2} , df]}}} < \sigma <\sqrt{ \frac{(n- 1) s^2}{x^2 _{[1- \frac{\alpha }{2} , df]}}}[/tex]
=> [tex]\sqrt{5.49} < \sigma < \sqrt{37.02 }[/tex]
=> [tex] 2.34 < \sigma < 6.08 [/tex]

Show that each conjecture is false by finding a counterexample.
1.For any integer n, n3 > 0.
2. Each angle in a right triangle has a different measure.
3.For many years in the U.S, each bank printed its own currency. The variety of different bills led to widespread counterfeiting. By the time of the Civil War, a significant fraction of the currency in circulation was counterfeit. If one soldier had 48 bills, 16 of which were counterfeit, and another soldier had 39 bills, 13 of which were counterfeit, make a conjecture about what fraction of bills were counterfeit at the time of the Civil War.
Answer:
1. [tex]n: n^3 > 0[/tex] is not true for negative integers
2. [tex]45\ and\ 45[/tex] show that all angles do not have different measure
3. [tex]Fraction = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving (1):
[tex]n: n^3 > 0[/tex]
Take
[tex]n = -1[/tex]
[tex]-1^3 = -1[/tex]
[tex]n: n^3 > 0[/tex] is not true for negative integers
Solving (2):
The angles of a right angled triangle are:
[tex]45, 45\ and\ 90[/tex]
[tex]45\ and\ 45[/tex] show that all angles do not have different measure
Solving (3):
When
[tex]Bills = 48[/tex]
[tex]Counterfeit = 16[/tex]
The fraction is calculated as thus:
[tex]Fraction = \frac{Counterfeit}{Bills}[/tex]
[tex]Fraction = \frac{16}{48}[/tex]
[tex]Fraction = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Similarly, when
[tex]Bills = 39[/tex]
[tex]Counterfeit = 13[/tex]
[tex]Fraction = \frac{Counterfeit}{Bills}[/tex]
[tex]Fraction = \frac{13}{39}[/tex]
[tex]Fraction = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
bob is on his way home in his car. he has driven 30 miles so far, which is three-fifths of the way home. what is the total length of his drive?
The length of Bob's drive as a fraction = 5/5
Let the length of his total drive be = x
30 miles driven by Bob as a fraction =
= 3/5 of x = 30
= 3/5x = 30
= 5/x = 30 ÷ 3 ( transposing ×3 from LHS to RHS changes ×3 to ÷3 )
=5/x = 10
= x = 10 × 5 ( transposing ÷5 from LHS to RHS changes ÷5 to ×5 )
= x = 50
Now we have to see what is =
= 2/5 of 50
= 2/5 × 50
= 100/5
= 20 miles
So , total length of Bob's drive = 30 miles + 20 miles = 50 miles .
∴ The total length of Bob's drive is 50 miles .
