The quantity of sodium in the salt is 10.4 ounces

information from the problem

Table salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) is 40% sodium (Na) by weight

If a box of salt weighs 26 ounces, how much Na is in the box of salt

The question is a percentage problem, percentage deals with a fraction hundred and used as follows

40%

= 40 percent

= 40 / 100

= 0.4

The factor 0.4 of the total weight of the salt is what we calculate

the total number is 26 ounces

= 0.4 * 26

= 10.4

The correlation coefficient, r, of the data (1 , 6) , (3 , 4) , (5 , 2) is calculated as: r = -1

The correlation coefficient can be described as a numerical value that ranges from -1 through 0, to 1. It is a test of the strength of the relationship between two different variables. It is denoted as "r".

The formula for finding the correlation coefficient (r) between two variables x and y is given as:

r = Σ(xi - mean of x)(yi - ȳ) / √(Σ[xi - mean of x)²Σ(yi - ȳ)²]

Given the following data:

(1 , 6) , (3 , 4) , (5 , 2)

Therefore, the table in the attached diagram shows how to derive each of the variables in the formula used for calculating the correlation coefficient, r, between X and Y.

Thus, applying the formula, we have:

Correlation coefficient (r) = -8/√(8*8)

Correlation coefficient (r) = -1

The quadratic function is increasing on the interval:

(-∞, 0)

Here we want to see on which intervals is the quadratic function increasing.

Or function is:

f(x) = 5 - 2x^2

Notice that we have a negative leading coefficient, which means that the parabola opens downwards.

Then the function will be increasing from negative infinity to the x-value of the vertex.

Remember that for the general quadratic:

y = a*x^2 + b*x + c

the x-value of the vertex is:

x = -b/2a

In this case we don't have a linear term, so b = 0, then the vertex is at x = 0.

Which means that the function is increasing on the interval (-∞, 0)

Explicación paso a paso:

28- (2*4)= 20

20/4=5

28 es el total de horas

2 horas por la mañana durante cuatro días

20 es el total de horas por la noche

4 días trabajados

5 es horas cada día durante la noche

Answer:

Durante cada turno de la noche Esther trabajo 5 horas

Step-by-step explanation:

Primero hallemos cuantas horas trabaja Esther en un día

[tex]2 + x = horas\ en \ un\ dia[/tex]

2 es el número de horas que trabaja en cada turno de la mañana y [tex]x[/tex] el número de horas que trabaja en su turno de la noche (en este momento desconocemos el valor de [tex]x[/tex] y es el que queremos hallar). Ahora se tiene que en 4 días ester trabaja 28 horas en total, por lo tanto, multiplicamos 4 a ambos lados de la ecuación para conservar la igualdad

[tex]4\times (2 + x) = horas\ en \ cuatro \ dias[/tex]

[tex]8+4x= 28[/tex]

Ahora se despeja [tex]x[/tex] de la ecuación anterior

[tex]4x=28-8=20\\x=\frac{20}{4} =5[/tex]

De tal manera que Esther en cada turno nocturno trabaja 5 horas

The mean of the data set is 22.1 , and the sample proportion of numbers less than the mean is 46.67 %

The mean is the average value which can be calculated by dividing the sum of observations by the number of observations

Mean = Sum of observations/the number of observations

Mean of the data set is calculated by adding all numbers and dividing it with total number sample data.

Then Adding all the numbers;

25.5 + 26 +18.2 +15.3 + 28.5 + 27 + 20.7 +20.2 +26.1 +18.2 +21.4 +17.9 +24.3 +22.6+ 19.6 =331.5

Now Dividing by total,

[tex]\textsf{(b)} \quad \boxed{-9a-3}[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{(c)} \quad \boxed{-9a+3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

The x- and y-intercept of the line -1.2x + 8.2y = 39.36 are -32.8 and 4.8

An intercept is a point at which the line crosses the axis of a graph. The point at which the line crosses the x-axis is known as the x-intercept, whereas if a line crosses the y-axis at a point, then the point will be the y-intercept.

Here we have,

-1.2x + 8.2y = 39.36

To find x - intercept substitute y = 0

=> -1.2x + 8.2(0) = 39.36

=> -1.2x = 39.36

=> x = 39.36/1.2

=> x = -32.8

To find y - intercept substitute x = 0

=> -1.2(0) + 8.2y = 39.36

=> 8.2y = 39.36

=> y = 39.36/8.2

=> y = 4.8  

Therefore

The x- and y-intercept of the line -1.2x + 8.2y = 39.36 are -32.8 and 4.8

Answer:

We use the attached graph

a. The maximum profit is the y value that is the value of P(x) that reaches maximum. From the graph the maximum value of P(x) is 675

So the maximum profit the florist will earn from selling bouquets = $675

b. Break even is the point where the profit p(x) becomes 0

From the graph we can see that P(x) =0 at x= -10 and x=20

x=-10 is invalid

So, break even after 20 one- dollar decreases

c. The interval of number of one dollar decreases is where the profit P(x) is greater than 0.

From the graph its very clear that the profit P(x) is greater than 0 in the interval 0 to 20.

So, The interval of number of one dollar decreases for which the florist makes a profit from celebration bouquet is (0, 20)

The first derivative by implicit differentiation of 2 · x⁶ + 5 · x⁴ · y - 7 · x · y⁶ = 8 is y' = (7 · y⁶ - 20 · x³ · y - 12 · x⁵) / (5 · x⁴ - 42 · x · y⁵).

Implicit differentiation is a differentiation method for implicit functions that combines chain rule and derivative rules. First, define the original function:

2 · x⁶ + 5 · x⁴ · y - 7 · x · y⁶ = 8

Second, use chain rule and derivative rules in the expression of the previous step:

12 · x⁵ + 20 · x³ · y + 5 · x⁴ · y' - 7 · y⁶ - 42 · x · y⁵ · y' = 0

Third, clear y' within the resulting equation:

12 · x⁵ + 20 · x³ · y - 7 · y⁶ + (5 · x⁴ - 42 · x · y⁵) · y' = 0

(5 · x⁴ - 42 · x · y⁵) · y' = 7 · y⁶ - 20 · x³ · y - 12 · x⁵

y' = (7 · y⁶ - 20 · x³ · y - 12 · x⁵) / (5 · x⁴ - 42 · x · y⁵)

The first derivative is y' = (7 · y⁶ - 20 · x³ · y - 12 · x⁵) / (5 · x⁴ - 42 · x · y⁵).

Fraction addition using algebra:

       Let the cost of bracelet =  x

          [tex]\sf Cost \ of \ pendent = \dfrac{3}{4}*Cost \ of \ bracelet[/tex]

                                   [tex]\sf = \dfrac{3}{4}x[/tex]

Cost of bracelet + cost of pendent = 413    

                      [tex]\sf x + \dfrac{3}{4}x = 413\\\\ \dfrac{4}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{4}x=413[/tex]

                                [tex]\sf \dfrac{7}{4}x=413[/tex]

Muliply both sides by 4,

                                [tex]\sf 4*\dfrac{7}{4}x = 413*4\\\\[/tex]

                                     7x  = 413 * 4

Now, divide both sides by 7

                                      [tex]\sf x = \dfrac{413*4}{7}\\\\ x = 59*4\\\\x = 236[/tex]

Cost of bracelet = P 236

Cost of pendent = 413 - 236

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the speed of the boat in still water.

Then the speed of the boat relative the bank of the river is u-5 km/hb when it moves upstream, and u+5 when it moves downstream.

We can write the basic equation for travel and distance problems

Time = Distance/Speed in the form  

t = 9/x-5   for moving upstream, and

t = 19/x+5 for moving downstream.

Since the left side, t, is the same in both equations, you get a single equation for u

9/x-5 = 19/x+5

To solve it, multiply both sides by the product (x-5)*(x+5) and simplify:

9*(x+5) = 19*(x-5),

9x + 45 = 19x - 95,

45 + 95 = 19x - 9x,

10x = 140,

u = 140/10 = 14 mph.
