Complete Question:
Mike took clothes to the cleaners three times last month. First, brought 4 shirts and 1 pair of slacks and paid $11.45. Then brought 7 shirts, 2 pairs of slacks, and 2 sports and paid $35.39. Finally, brought 5 shirts and 2 sports and paid $21.43 . How much was charged for each shirt, each pair of slacks, and each sports coat?
Answer:
The charges
For each Shirt = $1.49
For each pair of slacks = $5.49
For each sports coat = $6.99
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Shirt = a
Let pair of slacks = b
Let sports coat = c
First, brought 4 shirts and 1 pair of slacks and paid $11.45
= 4a + b = 11.45 ..........Equation 1
b = 11.45 - 4a
Then brought 7 shirts, 2 pairs of slacks, and 2 sports and paid $35.39
= 7a + 2b + 2c = 35.39.........Equation 2
5 shirts and 2 sports and paid $21.43
5a + 2c = 21.43............Equation 3
Hence:
4a + b = 11.45 ..........Equation 1
7a + 2b + 2c = 35.39.........Equation 2
Using elimination method
Multiply Equation 2 by the coefficient of b = 1 in Equation 1
Multiply Equation 1 by the coefficient of b = 2 in Equation 2
8a + 2b = 22.9 .......Equation 4
7a + 2b + 2c = 35.39.........Equation 2
Subtracting Equation 2 from Equation 4
= a - 2c = -12.49 ........Equation 5
a = -12.49 + 2c
Subtituting -12.49 + 2c for a in Equation 3
5a + 2c = 21.43............Equation 3
5(-12.49 + 2c) + 2c = 21.43
= -62.45 + 10c + 2c = 21.43
Collecting like terms
10c + 2c = 21.43 + 62.45
12c = 83.88
c = 83.88/12
c = 6.99
5a + 2c = 21.43............Equation 3
Substituting 6.99 for c in Equation 3
5a + 2(6.99) = 21.43
5a + 13.98 = 21.43
5a = 21.43 - 13.98
5a = 7.45
a = 7.45/5
a = 1.49
4a + b = 11.45 ..........Equation 1
Substituting 1.49 for a in Equation 1
4(1.49) + b = 11.45
b = 11.45 - 4(1.49)
b = 11.45 - 5.96
b = 5.49
Therefore, since the charges
For each shirt = a
The charges for each Shirt = $1.49
For each pair of slacks = b
The charges for each pair of slacks = $5.49
For each sports coat = c
The charges for each sports coat = $6.99

Find the intersection point for the following liner function f(x)= 2x+3 g(x)=-4x-27
Answer:
( -5,-7)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)= 2x+3 g(x)=-4x-27
Set the two functions equal
2x+3 = -4x-27
Add 4x to each side
2x+3+4x = -4x-27+4x
6x+3 = -27
Subtract 3
6x+3 - 3 = -27-3
6x = -30
Divide each side by 6
6x/6 = -30/6
x =-5
Now we need to find the output
f(-5) = 2(-5) +3 = -10+3 = -7

Answer:
ABC = 148, 3*148 = 444
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 111 = 3* 37, so all numbers of the form BBB has the factor 37.
So we need a multiple of 37 such thant when multiplied, we get three digits the same as the middle digit.
Try 4*37 = 148, 148*3 = 444, bingo, we got the right combination.
So ABC is 148.

A researcher surveys middle-school students on their study habits. She finds that in a random sample of 28 middle-school students, the mean amount of time that they spend working on the computer each night is 2.4 hours with a standard deviation of 0.92 hours. She uses the sample statistics to compute a 95% confidence interval for the population mean - the the mean amount of time that all middle-school students spend working on the computer each night. What is the margin of error for this confidence interval
Answer:
The margin of error is [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{ 0.92}{\sqrt{28 } }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is [tex]n = 28[/tex]
The sample mean is [tex]\= x = 2.4 \ hr[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 0.92 \ hr[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 95% the the level of significance can be evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = 100 -95[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 5 \%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table,the value is [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = Z_{\frac{0.05}{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{ 0.92}{\sqrt{28 } }[/tex]
[tex]E = 0.3408[/tex]
In a random sample of 20 NBA basketball games the mean number of points scored by the home team was 100.4 with a standard deviation of 4.86.

You and your friend were watching a LA Lakers game where they were not playing at home. They only scored 98 points. Your friend says, "Wow, I bet if they were playing at home they would have scored a lot more points." Do you agree or disagree with your friend? Support your detailed answer.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval is [tex]98.27 < \mu < 102.53[/tex]
This interval means that there 95% confidence that the true mean is within this interval
Yes i would agree with my friend because the lower and the upper limit 95% confidence interval for mean points scored at home is greater than 98 points
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 20
The sample mean is [tex]\mu = 100.4[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 4.86[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 95% then the level of significance is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 5\%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{ \alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table, the value is
[tex]Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma}{ \sqrt{n} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{ 4.86 }{ \sqrt{20 } }[/tex]
[tex]E = 2.13[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as
[tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]100.4 - 2.13 < \mu < 100.4 + 2.13[/tex]
[tex]98.27 < \mu < 102.53[/tex]

BRAINLIEST ANSWER GIVEN! Find the equation of the line passing through the pair points (-8,6) (-9,-9). The equation of the line in the form is Ax+By=C.
Answer:
y=15x+126
Step-by-step explanation:
the slope is
15 because -8-(-9) is 1 and 6-(-9) is 15 and y is over x so slope 15
To find y intercept start from -8,6 and add 15 to the y value every time you add one to the x value
you will add 8 times and you get 126 as the intercept
Let A= {1 , 2 , 3 , ... ... ...... , 10} and R = {(a, b): a ∈ A , b ∈ A and a + 2b = 10} Find the domain and range of R.
In domain and range of a relation, if R be a relation from set A to set B, then
• The set of all first components of the ordered pairs belonging to R is called the domain of R.
Thus, Dom(R) = {a ∈ A: (a, b) ∈ R for some b ∈ B}.
• The set of all second components of the ordered pairs belonging to R is called the range of R.
Thus, range of R = {b ∈ B: (a, b) ∈R for some a ∈ A}.
Therefore, Domain (R) = {a : (a, b) ∈ R} and Range (R) = {b : (a, b) ∈ R}

An ice cream store makes 144 quarts of ice cream in 8 hours. How many quarts could be made in 12 hours?
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
We know that the ice cream store makes 144 quarts in eight hours. What about in one hour? Let's divide this by eight to find out.
144/8=18
So, they make 18 quarts every hour. We want to figure out how many can be made in 12 hours. So, we just multiply 18 by 12!
18(12)=216
Therefore, 216 quarts of ice cream could be made in 12 hours.
Have a wonderful day! :D
The ice cream store will make 216 quarts of ice cream in 12 hours.
What is division?Division is breaking a number up into an equal number of parts.
Given that, An ice cream store makes 144 quarts of ice cream in 8 hours.
Since, they make 144 quarts of ice cream in 8 hours
Therefore, in 1 hour they will make = 144/8 = 18 quarts
So, in 12 hours = 18x12 = 216 quarts.

Allied Corporation is trying to sell its new machines to Ajax. Allied claims that the machine will pay for itself since the time it takes to produce the product using the new machine is significantly less than the production time using the old machine. To test the claim, independent random samples were taken from both machines. You are given the following results.
New Machine Old Machine
Sample Mean 25 23
Sample Variance 27 7.56
Sample Size 45 36
As the statistical advisor to Ajax, would you recommend purchasing Allied's machine? Explain.
Answer:
z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀ we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine
Step-by-step explanation:
We must evaluate the differences of the means of the two machines, to do so, we will assume a CI of 95%, and as the interest is to find out if the new machine has better performance ( machine has a bigger efficiency or the new machine produces more units per unit of time than the old one) the test will be a one tail-test (to the left).
New machine
Sample mean x₁ = 25
Sample variance s₁ = 27
Sample size n₁ = 45
Old machine
Sample mean x₂ = 23
Sample variance s₂ = 7,56
Sample size n₂ = 36
Test Hypothesis:
Null hypothesis H₀ x₂ - x₁ = d = 0
Alternative hypothesis Hₐ x₂ - x₁ < 0
CI = 90 % ⇒ α = 10 % α = 0,1 z(c) = - 1,28
To calculate z(s)
z(s) = ( x₂ - x₁ ) / √s₁² / n₁ + s₂² / n₂
s₁ = 27 ⇒ s₁² = 729
n₁ = 45 ⇒ s₁² / n₁ = 16,2
s₂ = 7,56 ⇒ s₂² = 57,15
n₂ = 36 ⇒ s₂² / n₂ = 1,5876
√s₁² / n₁ + s₂² / n₂ = √ 16,2 + 1.5876 = 4,2175
z(s) = (23 - 25 )/4,2175
z(s) = - 0,4742
Comparing z(s) and z(c)
|z(s)| < | z(c)|
z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀ we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine
The very hight dispersion of values s₁ = 27 is evidence of frecuent values quite far from the mean
please help. urgent. calculate the value of: E= x^3+1/x^3 if 1/x+x=4
(picture below)
Answer:
52
Step-by-step explanation:
1. We see if we cube both sides of the second equation, then it looks more similar to the first equation (E = x^3 + 1/x^3)
(1/x + x)^3 = 4^3
1/x^3 + 3/x + 3x + x^3 = 64
2. Now we rearrange, because we see x^3 + 1/x^3 in the first equation in this equation
x^3 + 1/x^3 + 3x + 3/x = 64
3. We look at 3x + 3/x and see that it looks like the second equation, so we try factoring it
x^3 + 1/x^3 + 3(x + 1/x) = 64
we know x + 1/x = 4, so 3(x + 1/x) = 12
x^3 + 1/x^3 +12 = 64
4. Now we subtract and get our answer
x^3 + 1/x^3 = 52

there are 5 discs, 6 jump ropes, 3 balls, and 12 pieces of sidewalk chalk in a bin. If two items are drawn at random without replacement, what is the probability that both items removed are not jump ropes?
Answer: 0.584
Step-by-step explanation:
We have:
5 discs
6 jump ropes
3 balls
12 pieces of sidewalk.
5 + 6 + 3 + 12 = 26
If all of them have exactly the same probability of being removed, then:
in the first selection, we do not want to remove a jump rope, so we can remove one disc, one ball or one piece of sidewalk.
The total number of those objects is:
5 + 3 + 12 = 20.
Then the probability of removing one of those objects is:
P1 = 20/26 = 0.769
Now in the second selection, we have the same situation, but now we have 25 objects in total, and because in the previous selection we removed one ball, or one disc, or one piece of sidewalk, the total number of these things now is 19.
So the probability of removing another object of that set is:
P2 = 19/25 = 0.76
The joint probability is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, so we have:
P = P1*P2 = 0.769*0.76 = 0.584

Use a definition, postulate, or theorem to find the value of x in the figure described. Point E is between points D and F. If DE = x − 3, EF = 6x + 5, and DF = 8x − 3, find x. Select each definition, postulate, or theorem you will use. A)definition of segment bisector B)definition of midpoint C)Linear Pair Theorem D)Segment Addition Postulate The solution is x =?
Answer:
Option (D)
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since point E is in the mid of the segment DF,
Therefore, by the Segment addition postulate,
DF = DE + EF
Since DF = (8x - 3), DE = (x - 3) and EF = (6x + 5)
By substituting these values in the given postulate,
(8x - 3) = (x - 3) + (6x + 5)
8x - 3 = (x + 6x) + (5 - 3)
8x - 3 = 7x + 2
8x - 7x = 3 + 2
x = 5
Therefore, x = 5 will be the answer.
