If 2 tacos and 3 drinks cost $14, and 3 tacos and 2 drinks cost $16, how much does a taco cost?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1 taco is $4

Step-by-step explanation:

2t + 3d = 14              4t + 6d = 28

3t + 2d = 16              -9t -6d = -48

-5t = -20

t = 4

Answer 2

A tacos would cost $4.00.

Let the cost of tacos be T.Let the cost of drinks be D.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

[tex]2T \; + \; 3D = 14[/tex]   ......equation 1

[tex]3T \; + \; 2D = 16[/tex]   ......equation 2

To find how much a tacos cost, we would solve the above system of equations by using the substitution method.

From eqn 1, we would make D the subject of formula;

[tex]D = \frac {14 \; - 2T}{3}[/tex]  .....equation 3

Substituting eqn 3 into eqn 2, we have;

[tex]3T \; + \; 2(\frac {14 \; - 2T}{3}) = 16\\\\3T \; + \; \frac {28 \; - 4T}{3} = 16\\\\[/tex]

Lowest common multiple (LCM) = 3

[tex]\frac {9T \; + \; 28 \;- \; 4T}{3} = 16\\\\\\[/tex]

Cross-multiplying, we have;

[tex]9T \; + \; 28 \;- \; 4T = 16 \; * \; 3\\\\5T \; + 28 = 48\\\\5T = 48 \; - 28\\\\5T = 20\\\\T = \frac{20}{5} \\[/tex]

Tacos, T = $4.00

Therefore, the cost of a tacos is $4.00.

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement 'the bike distance is greater than the run distance.' must be true.

The correct answer is option D.

What is distance?

"It is the length of the line joining the two points."

Angle properties:

In any triangle,

the smallest side and smallest angle are opposite one another. the mid-sized side and mid-sized angle are opposite one another.the largest side and largest angle are opposite one another.

For given example,

We have given two angles of triangle.

65° and 57°

We know, the sum of all angles of triangle is 180°.

Let 'x' be the remaining angle.

⇒ x + 65° + 57 = 180°

⇒ x +122° = 180°

⇒ x = 58°

We know,

In any triangle,

- the smallest side and smallest angle are opposite one another.

- the mid-sized side and mid-sized angle are opposite one another.

- the largest side and largest angle are opposite one another.

Here,

57° < 58° < 65°

⇒ Run < Bike < Swim

This means, the statement 'the bike distance is greater than the run distance.' is correct.

The correct answer is option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

A large factory that builds machines has three shifts, one that starts at 4:00 A.M., one that starts at noon, and one that starts at 8:00 P.M. The manager of the factory wanted to know whether there is an association between an employee’s work experience (less than five years with the company, between five and twenty years with the company, over twenty years with the company) and the time of the employee’s shift. The manager selected a random sample of 125 employees and classified employees by their shift time and work experience. Which of the following is an appropriate pair of hypotheses for the manager to use?
A. H0 : Work experience is independent of the time of an employee's shift.
Ha, : Work experience is dependent on the time of an employee's shift.
B. H0 : Employees with over 20 years of experience are just as likely to start work
at 8PM
Ha : Employees with over 20 years of experience are less likely to start work
at 8 P.M.
C. H0 : There is an association between work experience and an employee's shift.
Ha : There is no association between work experience and an employee's shift.
D. H0 : For each shift, there is no difference between the proportions of work
experience level
Ha : For each shift, there is a difference between the proportions of work
experience level.
E. Ha : Among those in the sample, the proportion of employees for each work
experience level did not differ by shift.
Ha : Among those in the sample, the proportion of employees for each work
experience level did differ by shift.

Answers

Answer:

An appropriate pair of hypotheses for the manager to use is:

C.

H0 : There is an association between work experience and an employee's shift.

Ha : There is no association between work experience and an employee's shift.

Step-by-step explanation:

These research hypotheses compare the incidence of employee's work experience and the baseline group (the employee's shift).  

These hypotheses tests are statistical tools which assess whether or not there is an association between the two variables (work experience and shift).  

The null hypothesis test will provide the probability of the type 1 error (p-value).  

Based on the result, the research will accept or reject the null study hypothesis.

Answer:

A) H0 :  Work experience is independent of the time of an employee’s shift.

Ha :  Work experience is dependent on the time of an employee’s shift.

Step-by-step explanation:

A chi-square test of independence is appropriate. The null hypothesis expresses that there is not an association between two categorical variables (work experience and time of shift) and the alternative hypothesis expresses that the categorical variables are associated.

The polar coordinates of the point are

Answers

Answer:

(4cos150, 4sin150) or (4cos5pi/6, 4sin5pi/6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rectangular coordinate

(2√3,-2)

x = 2√3

y = 2

For polar coordinate;

x =r cos theta

y = rsin theta

r = √x²+y²

r = √(2√3)²+(-2)²

r = √4(3) + 4

r = √12+4

r = 4

theta = arctan(y/x)

theta = arctan(-2/2√3)

theta = arctan(-1/√3)

theta = -30

theta = 180 - 30

theta = 150degrees

x = 4cos 150

y = 4sin150

The polar coordinate is (4cos150, 4sin150) or (4cos5pi/6, 4sin5pi/6)

The polar coordinates of the point are

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the options

A 36 students and 2 chaperones B. 54 students and 3 chaperones O C 90 students and 4 chaperones D 108 students and 6 chaperones

We have to simply the ratio of students to chaperones to its lowest form .

126 : 7 = dividing number of students and chaperones by 7 gives :  18:1

36 : 2 = dividing number of students and chaperones by 2 gives : 18:1

54 : 3 = dividing number of students and chaperones by 3 gives : 18:1

90 : 4 = dividing number of students and chaperones by 4 gives : 22.5 : 1

108 : 6 = dividing number of students and chaperones by 6 gives : 18:1

It can be seen that it is only 90:4 that does not have the same ratio as that given in the question

The U.S. Energy Information Administration claimed that U.S. residential customers used an average of 10,941 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity this year. A local power company believes that residents in their area use more electricity on average than EIA's reported average. To test their claim, the company chooses a random sample of 115 of their customers and calculates that these customers used an average of 11,425kWh of electricity last year. Assuming that the population standard deviation is 3217kWh, is there sufficient evidence to support the power company's claim at the 0.02 level of significance

Answers

Answer:

The pvalue of the test is 0.0537 > 0.02, which means that there is not sufficient evidence to support the power company's claim at the 0.02 level of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

The U.S. Energy Information Administration claimed that U.S. residential customers used an average of 10,941 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity this year.

This means that the null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 10941[/tex]

A local power company believes that residents in their area use more electricity on average than EIA's reported average.

This means that the alternate hypothesis is:

[tex]H_a: \mu > 10941[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

10941 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 10941[/tex]

To test their claim, the company chooses a random sample of 115 of their customers and calculates that these customers used an average of 11,425kWh of electricity last year. The population standard deviation is of 3217kWh:

This means that [tex]n = 115, X = 11425, \sigma = 3217[/tex]

Value of the z-statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{11425 - 10941}{\frac{3217}{\sqrt{115}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 1.61[/tex]

Pvalue of the test:

Probability of finding a mean above 11425, which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of z = 1.61.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.61 has a pvalue of 0.9463.

1 - 0.9463 = 0.0537

The pvalue of the test is 0.0537 > 0.02, which means that there is not sufficient evidence to support the power company's claim at the 0.02 level of significance.
