The body mass index (BMI) of a person is the person’s weight divided by the square of his or her height. It is an indirect measure of the person’s body fat and an indicator of obesity. Results from surveys conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed that the estimated mean BMI for US adults increased from 25.0 in the 1960–1962 period to 28.1 in the 1999–2002 period.

Suppose you are a health researcher. You conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether the mean BMI of US adults in the current year is lower than the mean BMI of US adults in 2000. Assume that the mean BMI of US adults in 2000 was 28.1 (the population mean). You obtain a sample of BMI measurements of 1,034 US adults, which yields a sample mean of M = 28.9. Let μ denote the mean BMI of US adults in the current year.

Answer:

All they are doing is finding what a 20% drop would be. You do that by multiplying the value by .8 which gives you the total accounting for a 20% drop.

Answer:

-4+-6=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

Answer:

.25 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Sandwich = x

cookie = x-5

x + (x-5) = 5.50

x + x -5 = 5.50

2x = 10.50

sandwich=$5.25

cookie = (5.25) - 5

cookie = $.25

Order of operation:

P-parenthesis

E-exponents

M-multiplication

D-division

A-addition

S-subtraction

Follow this order of operation in order.

If there are parenthesis when solving an equation, do the parenthesis first, if there are exponents and multiplication, do exponents before you do multiplication.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines that are parallel have the same slope. If we make [tex]x - 3y = 15[/tex] in to slope-intercept form it'll be like this:

[tex]x - 3y = 15 \\ -3y = 15 - x \\ y = \frac{15 - x}{-3} \\ y = \frac{1}{3}x - 5[/tex]

Now we know [tex]y = \frac{1}{3}x - 5\\[/tex] as its slope-intercept form we can see the slope is [tex]\frac{1} {3}\\[/tex].

[tex]y = \frac{1}{3}x + 4\\[/tex] has the same slope as [tex]y = \frac{1}{3}x - 5\\[/tex] so they are both parallel.

[tex]y = \frac{1}{3}x + 4\\[/tex]

Answer:

57°

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder will be the hypotenuse while the 4.2 meters will be a leg.

We want the angle between the ground & the ladder. Therefore, 4.2 is on the opposite side of the angle.

sin(theta) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(theta) = 4.2/5

theta = arcsin(4.2/5)

theta = 57°

Answer:

x=110

Step-by-step explanation:

-.5x+12.5=-x+18

add x to -x to move it

then add 1x to -.5x to get .5

soo.....

.5x+25.5=18

the subtract 12.5 from both sides to get

.5x=5.5

then divide .5 from both sides to get

x=110

Answer:

1/2 pound

Remaining 2 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Beef filet = 5 5/8 pounds

Slices of fillet = 8 ounces

A. how many pounds is each steak. write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

1 pound = 16 ounces

Pounds of each steak = ounces per steak / ounces per pound

= 8 ounces / 16 ounces

= 1/2 pound

B. how many 8 ounce steaks can the chef create from the fillet? How many ounces of beef are left over

Beef filet = 5 5/8 pounds

= 45 / 8 pounds

Convert to ounces

= 90 ounces

Number of 8 ounces the chef can create = 90 ounces / 8 ounces

= 11.25

= 11

Remaining 2 ounces of beef

Step-by-step explanation:

The above two expressions can be used to find the percentage of mark-up for the phone.

The first expression for instance will give;

[tex]= \frac{100 * (281.20 - 152)}{152}\\\\= \frac{12,920}{152}\\\\= 85[/tex]

= 85%

The second expression will give;

[tex]= (\frac{281.20}{152}-1 ) * 100\\\\= 0.85 * 100\\\\= 85[/tex]

= 85%

Both of them will show that an 85% mark-up has been added to the cost of the phone.
