Suppose Sora is arguing with her mother, Jane. Jane believes that Sora eats mostly candy and doesn't eat enough fruits and vegetables, but Sora claims that she eats candy, fruits, and vegetables equally often. To test Sora's claim, Jane carefully monitors Sora's eating habits for several weeks. She records the number of times that Sora eats fruits, vegetables, and candy.
Jane conducts a chi-square test for goodness-of-fit to test Sora's claim. Jane's results are summarized in the table
Type of food Fruits Vegetables Candy

What is the p-value for Jane's chi-square test for goodness-of-fit? Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.027

Step-by-step explanation:

The p-value for Jane's chi-square test for goodness of fit is computed by using value of test statistic and degree of freedom.

Using Excel function CHISQ.DIST.RT(7.24,2) for computing p-value for chi-square goodness of fit test. 7.24 is the value of test statistic and 2 is degree of freedom. The resultant value is 0.026783. By rounding off to three decimal places the required p-value is 0.027.

MARK AS BRAINLIEST An artist has a block of clay in the shape of a cube. The edges of the cube measure 3 inches. The artist will use the clay to make models of
pine trees. Each tree will be a solid cone with a base diameter of 1.5 inches and a height of 2 inches.
Part A
Determine the greatest number of clay pine trees that the artist can make. Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is given as:

Cube volume = length × length × length

Since the edges of the cube measure 3 inches, this means that the length of the cube is 3 inches, therefore:

Cube volume = 3 inches × 3 inches × 3 inches = 27 in³

The pine tree is the shape of a cone with diameter of 1.5 inches and a height (h) of 2 inches. The radius (r) = diameter / 2 = 1.5 inches / 2 = 0.75 inches.

The volume of the cone = πr²(h/3) = π × (0.75)² × (2/3) = 1.178 in³

The number of pine trees that can be made = Volume of cube / Volume of cone = 27 / 1.178 = 22.9

The number of pine trees = 22


Consider the points R and S in the figure. How many different lines pass through
both R and S? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Here we have two points R and S.

How many lines pass through both R and S?

Well, we can have only one line that passes through both R and S.

Because we are working with lines, we can only see a plane X-Y here.

Then the points R and S can be written as:

R = (x1, y1) and S = (x2, y2)

Now, a line or a  linear relationship can be written as:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-axis intercept.

For a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope can be written as:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).

Now, let's suppose that we have two different lines that pass through points R and S.

From above, both lines must have the same slope, because they pass through the same points.

y1 = a*x + b

y2 = a*x + c

So the only thing that our lines can have different is the y-intercept, but the y-intercept acts as a vertical shift.

This means, if we have different values in the y-intercept, we will have two parallel lines.

And two parallel lines can never pass through the same points, which means that we can not have different values for the y-intercept.

Then the two lines must be identical.

Then there is only one line that passes through points S and R at the same time,

The new 12 mile hiking trail is 150% of the length of the original trial. How long was the original trial?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original trail be x

From the question 150% of the trail is

12 mile

That's

150% of x = 12

So we have

[tex] \frac{150}{100} x = 12 \\ \\ \frac{3}{2} x = 12[/tex]

Multiply through by 2

That's

[tex]2 \times \frac{3}{2} x = 12 \times 2[/tex]

We have

3x = 24

Divide both sides by 3

We have the final answer as

x = 8

Therefore the length of the original trail is

8 miles

or it's just in +1 then +3 pattern

The next terms of the pattern 1,2,5,6,9 are 10, 13,14,17,18,21.

What is sequence?

Sequence is a collection of terms which are related in some way which is common to all the terms or some of the terms.

How to find terms of sequence?

The pattern is given as 1,2,5,6,9 and we have to find the next terms of the pattern.

The First term is 1, the second term is 2. The difference between them is 1.

Second term is 2 and the third term is 5. The difference between them is 3.

Third term is 5 and the fourth term is 6. The difference between them is 1.

Fourth term is 6 and fifth term is 9. The difference between them is 3.

If we observe pattern in them them we can find that in first term they have added 1 , in second term 3 , in third term 1, in fourth term 3. It means first add 1 and then 3.

The next terms will be :

9+1=10

10+3=13

13+1=14

14+3=17

17+1=18

18+3=21.

write an equivalent unit rate to eating chips in 1/4 mins

Answers

Answer:

Here we have the case where:

"one chip is eaten in 1/4 mins."

(that means unit rate, the amount of a given variable that we need to do a unit of another variable)

Then the unit rate would be:

4 chips per minute.

Or, in a more mathematical way to write this:

4 chips/min.

Now we could write this in other units, for example.

We know that 1 min = 60s.

Then we have that (1/4) min = 60s/4 = 15s.

Then we have the unit rate:

1 chip every 15 seconds, or:

(1/15) chips/second.

Now, the variable in this case is time, t  = time, let's multiply bot our unit rates by the same amount of time, and see if we have the same outcome.

Let's use t = 2 min.

1) (4chips/min)*2min = 8 chips.

2) ((1/15) chips/second)*2min

First, 2 min = 120 seconds.

((1/15) chips/second)*2min = ((1/15) chips/second)*120seconds = 8 chips.

So both unit rates are equivalent.

A company producing tennis racquets found that 3% of the racquets they produce are defective. The racquets are sent to shops in boxes of 6 and the shops send back boxes with more than one defective racquet. If a box is chosen at random and opened, what is the probability that it is sent back

Answers

Answer:

0.82

Step-by-step explanation:

The question says that three percent (3 out of 100) of the rackets (racquets) produced by the company are found to be defective.

First thing to calculate is the probability that 1 in a box of 6 rackets are defective.

That probability is gotten by cross multiplying, as illustrated below;

3 - 100

x - 6

x = (6×3)/100 = 18/100 = 0.18

Since the probability of having/finding 1 defective racket in a box of 6 is 0.18, the probability of finding more than 1 (minimum of 2 and maximum of all six) defective rackets in same box would be (1 - 0.18) = 0.82

Answers

Answer:

Option E - sigma greater than or equal to $327

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are testing whether the standard deviation of the base price of a certain type of all-terrain vehicle is at least $327.

Now, standard deviation is denoted by the symbol sigma(σ). Since the test is saying it should be at least $327, it means it should either be equal to $327 or greater than $327.

Thus, we would use the symbol ≥ which means "greater than or equal to".

Thus, the claim as a mathematical statement would be;

sigma greater than or equal to $327

Which constants could each equation be multiplied by to eliminate the x-variable using addition in this system of equations? 2 x + 3 y = 25. Negative 3 x + 4 y = 22. The first equation can be multiplied by –3 and the second equation by 2. The first equation can be multiplied by –4 and the second equation by 2. The first equation can be multiplied by 3 and the second equation by 2. The first equation can be multiplied by 4 and the second equation by –3.

Answers

Answer:

The first equation can be multiplied by 3 and the second equation by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following system of equations:

[tex]\boxed{\left \{ {{2x+3y=25} \atop {-3x+4y=22}} \right.}[/tex]

To eliminate a variable in the equation, they must cancel out. For instance, if x = 1, in order to cancel out the numbers, you must add -1.

To multiply an equation, you must apply the constant that you are multiplying by to all constants and coefficients of the equation. For example, to multiply 2x + 4y = 8 by 3, you must multiply 2x by 3, 4y by 3, and 8 by 3.

Therefore, using this information, you can attempt each answer set and test the possibilities.

Answer Choice A

If you multiply the first equation by -3, you will get -6x - 9y = -75. If you multiply the second equation by 2, you will get -6x + 8y = 44. Adding -6 + -6 gives you -12, so these do not cancel out.

Answer Choice B

If you multiply the first equation by -4, you will get -8x - 12y = -100. If you multiply the second equation by 2, you will get -6x + 8y = 44. Adding -8 + -6 gives you -14, so these do not cancel out.

Answer Choice C

If you multiply the first equation by 3, you will get 6x + 9y = 75. If you multiply the second equation by 2, you will get -6x + 8y = 44. Adding 6 + -6 gives you 0, so these do cancel out.

Answer Choice D

If you multiply the first equation by 4, you will get 8x + 12y = 100. If you multiply the second equation by -3, you will get 9x - 12y = -66. Adding 8 + -9 gives you -1, so these do not cancel out.

ANS 14%

ANSWER: 74

The project's IRR is approximately 13.45%.

We have,

To calculate the project's internal rate of return (IRR), we need to find the discount rate at which the net present value (NPV) of the project's cash flows is equal to zero.

Given:

Initial cost (C0) = $60,000

Net cash inflow per year (CF) = $14,000

Number of years (n) = 9

Cost of capital (r) = 14% = 0.14

To calculate the IRR, set up the equation:

[tex]0 = C0 + (CF / (1 + r)^1) + (CF / (1 + r)^2) + ... + (CF / (1 + r)^n)[/tex]

[tex]0 = 60,000 + (14,000 / (1 + r)^1) + (14,000 / (1 + r)^2) + ... + (14,000 / (1 + r)^9)[/tex]

By using a financial calculator or software, the IRR for this project is found to be approximately 13.45% when rounded to two decimal places.

Therefore,

5 red balls, 2 white balls and 3 blue balls are arranged in a row. If the balls of the same color are not distinguished from each other. How many possible ways can they be ordered?

Answers

Answer:

27720

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's assume that in any arrangement we are not able to distinguish the balls having the same colour, so only different orders of the colours involved are counted.

If we number these balls we have 12 different numbers, 3 of which belong to the white balls, 4 belong to the blue balls and the final 5 belong to the red balls. They could be arranged in 12! different ways. Pick any of these arrangements.

The white balls in this arrangement are now ordered because I gave these balls a number. But I specifically stated in the first alinea that we were not interested in all these possible orders of the white balls within a sequence of 12 balls. So we must correct for these orders, there are 3! of these, each one leading to exactly the same visual order of white balls. The other colours lead to a correction of 4! and 5!. Moreover, these corrections are independent of each other. I can change the position of the white balls without interrupting the order of the colours of the remaining balls. So we should divide by the product of 3!,4! and 5!.

Total number of arrangement = 3,628,800

Arrangement based problem:

Given that;

Number of red ball = 5
