Jenny is 9 years younger than Sammie. Five years ago, Sammie was four times older than Jenny. How old is each now?
Answer:
Jenny's is 8 now and Sammie is 17.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved by a system of equations.
I am going to say that:
Jenny's age is x.
Sammie's age is y.
Jenny is 9 years younger than Sammie.
This means that:
[tex]x = y - 9[/tex]
Five years ago, Sammie was four times older than Jenny.
This means that:
[tex]y - 5 = 4(x - 5)[/tex]
Since [tex]x = y - 9[/tex]
[tex]y - 5 = 4(y - 9 - 5)[/tex]
[tex]y - 5 = 4(y - 14)[/tex]
[tex]y - 5 = 4y - 56[/tex]
[tex]3y = 51[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{51}{3}[/tex]
[tex]y = 17[/tex]
[tex]x = y - 9 = 17 - 9 = 8[/tex]
Jenny's is 8 now and Sammie is 17.

Sally is making 15 individual blueberry cheesecakes. How many pounds of blueberries will be in each cheesecake if 5 1/4 pounds of blueberries are divided equally among them?
Answer:
0.35 pounds in each cheesecake
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of individual blueberry cheesecakes = 15
Pounds of blueberries = 5 1/4 pounds
How many pounds of blueberries will be in each cheesecake if 5 1/4 pounds of blueberries are divided equally among them?
= 5 1/4 ÷ 15
= 21/4 ÷ 15
= 21/4 × 1/15
= (21*1)/(4*15)
= 21/60 pounds
Equivalent to 0.35 pounds in each cheesecake

Multiplication Property of Equality Division Property of Equality Addition Property of Equality Subtraction Property of EqualityAlgebra I
Coordinates (x, y)Solving systems of equations using substitution/eliminationStep-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define Systems
4y + x = -17
-2y + 2x = 16
Step 2: Rewrite Systems
-2y + 2x = 16
[Multiplication Property of Equality] Multiply 2 to both sides: 2(-2y + 2x) = 32[Distributive Property] Distribute 2: -4y + 4x = 32Step 3: Redefine Systems
4y + x = -17
-4y + 4x = 32
Step 4: Solve for x
Elimination
Combine equations: 5x = 15[Division Property of Equality] Divide 5 on both sides: x = 3Step 5: Solve for y
Substitute in x [Original Equation]: 4y + 3 = -17[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 3 on both sides: 4y = -20[Division Property of Equality] Divide 4 on both sides: y = -5Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your system by elimination.
4y+x=−17;−2y+2x=16
Multiply the first equation by -2,and multiply the second equation by 1.
−2(4y+x=−17)
1(−2y+2x=16)
Becomes:
−2x−8y=34
2x−2y=16
Add these equations to eliminate x:
−10y=50
Then solve −10y= 50 for y:
−10y=50
−10y /−10 = 50/ −10 (Divide both sides by -10)
y = −5
Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.
Write down an original equation:
4y + x = −17
Substitute −5 for y in 4y+x=−17:
(4)(−5)+x=−17
x−20=−17(Simplify both sides of the equation)
x−20+20=−17+20(Add 20 to both sides)
x=3
Answer:
x=3 and y=−5

They are thinking of taking a sample of either n=50 or n=100 customers and building a one-sample z interval for a proportion using the data from the sample. Assuming the sample proportion is the same in each sample, what is true about the margins of error from these two samples?

Step-by-step explanation:
An examination consists of multiple-choice questions, each having five possible answers. Linda estimates that she has probability 0.4 of knowing the answer to any question that may be asked. If she does not know the answer, she will guess, with conditional probability 1/5 of being correct.A. What is the probability that Linda gives the correct answer to a question? B. What is the conditional probability that Linda knows the answer, given that she supplies the correct answer?
Answer:
a. 0.52 = 52% probability that Linda gives the correct answer to a question.
b. 0.7692 = 76.92% probability that Linda knows the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this question:
Event A: Supplies the correct answer:
Event B: Knows the answer
A. What is the probability that Linda gives the correct answer to a question?
0.4(knows the answer)
1/5 = 0.2 of 1 - 0.4 = 0.6(guesses the answer). So
[tex]P(A) = 0.4 + 0.2*0.6 = 0.52[/tex]
0.52 = 52% probability that Linda gives the correct answer to a question.
B. What is the conditional probability that Linda knows the answer, given that she supplies the correct answer?
Intersection of events A and B is knowing the answer and giving the correct answer, which means that [tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.4[/tex]
The desired probability is:
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.4}{0.52} = 0.7692[/tex]
0.7692 = 76.92% probability that Linda knows the answer

A random sample of 300 parts was taken from a particular grinding machine. Of those parts, 12 were defective. (a) Construct a 99% upper bound for the proportion of all parts produced by this machine that will be defective. 0.0109 (b) Construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all parts produced by this machine that will be defective. [ Select ] (c) It is decided that the interval produced in part (b) is too wide, and thus a new sample must be taken and a new confidence interval calculated. What sample size would be necessary to ensure that the width of the 99% confidence interval will be 0.02 or less
Answer:
a) Ub = 0,069
b) CI 99 % = ( 0,0287 ; 0,069 )
c) n = 2536
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence Interval (CI) for proportion is
p₀ ± z(c) * √ ( p₀*q₀ ) /n
Where p₀ is the sample proportion
n = size of the sample
and z(c) is z score for the significance level α
As CI = 99 % α = 1% α = 0,01 α/2 = 0,005
from z-table we find z(c) = 2,57
p₀ = 12/300 p₀ = 0,04 ;
n*p₀ = 12 > 10 and n*q₀ = 300*0,96 n*q₀ = 288 > 10
We can use normal distribution as a valid aproximation of binomial distibution
Then z(c) = 2,57
a) upper bound for CI Ub
Ub = p₀ + z(c) * √ p₀q₀/300
Ub = 0,04 + 2,57 * √ (0,04*0,96)/300
Ub = 0,04 + 0,0113
Ub = 0,069
b) CI at 99% is
CI = p₀ ± z(c) * √ ( p₀*q₀ ) /n
we have already calculated the Ub = 0,069
the Lower bound would be Lb = 0,04 - 0,0113
Lb = 0,0287
Then CI 99 % = ( 0,0287 ; 0,069 )
c) If CI ≤ 0,02 we can find the minimun n value with the equation:
p₀ ± z(c) * √ ( p₀*q₀ ) /n = CI or p₀ - z(c) * √ ( p₀*q₀ ) /n = 0,01
For symmetry respect to p₀
z(c) *√ (p₀*q₀) / n = 0,01
Solving for n
z(c) * √ ( p₀*q₀ ) /n = 0,01
2,57 * √ (0,04*0,96)/n = 0,01
2,57 * √ 0,0384/n = 0,01
2,57 = 0,01/√ 0,0384/n
Squaring both sides of the equation
6,6049 = (0,01)² *n / 0,0384
0,0384*6,6049 / 0,0001 = n
n = 2536
