Answer:

When there is a positive relationship, as values of variable X (e.g., income) increase, values of variable Y (e.g., education level) also increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the value of variable x increase, and value of variable y also increase.

A positive relationship is when the values increase together or we can say that the value both variable tends to move in same direction. If the value of x  increase then the value of y is also increase.

A Negative relationship is when one value decreases as the other increases.  Or we can say that the value of x increase the value of y decrease.

Hence, the provided relationship is positive as both values moves in same direction.

When there is a positive relationship, as values of variable X (e.g., income) increase, values of variable Y (e.g., education level) also increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

y=a(1-r)^n

a is the initial cost of the vehicle

r is the percentage decrease in decimal

n is the number of years.

so y as the final cost is computed as:

8500(1-0.047)^6

we get $6367.61

Answer:

For this case we don't have any problems for the conditions 1) and 3), but we have a problem with condition 2) since is not satisfied.

We just need to find a counterexample to show that the statement is False. If we find two elements in the subset provided S, and we show that the sum is not in S, then we have the counter example.

Let's say that we have two elements [tex] a^m +1 , -a^m +1 \in S[/tex] so both elements are in S, and if we apply the condition for the addition closed we got:

[tex] (a^m +1) +(-a^m +1) = a^m -a^m +1+1 = 2[/tex]

And by definition of S, 2 is not in S so then since we can't satisfy the closed addition property then S can't be a subsapce

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case the answer would be no.

It can't be a subspace because we not satisfy the condition of closed under addition.

We need to remember that a subset U of V is a subspace of V if and only if U satisfies the following 3 conditions

1) Additive identity [tex] 0 \in U[/tex]

2) Closed under addition [tex] u,v \in U \Rightarrow u+x \in U[/tex]

3) Cloases under scalar multiplication [tex] a \in F, u \in U \Rightarrow au \in U[/tex]

Proof

For this case we don't have any problems for the conditions 1) and 3), but we have a problem with condition 2) since is not satisfied.

We just need to find a counterexample to show that the statement is False. If we find two elements in the subset provided S, and we show that the sum is not in S, then we have the counter example.

Let's say that we have two elements [tex] a^m +1 , -a^m +1 \in S[/tex] so both elements are in S, and if we apply the condition for the addition closed we got:

[tex] (a^m +1) +(-a^m +1) = a^m -a^m +1+1 = 2[/tex]

And by definition of S, 2 is not in S so then since we can't satisfy the closed addition property then S can't be a subsapce

416.67 pounds of food should be given all five lions each day

Solution:

Given that, three adult lions together eat 250 pounds of food a day

Thus, 3 adult lions = 250 pounds of food per day

Two more adult lions joined the group and ate food at the same rate as the original three

Now number of adult lions = 3 adult lions + 2 adult lions = 5 adult lions

Let "x" be the food ate by 5 adult lions

Thus we can say,

3 adult lions = 250 pounds of food per day

5 adult lions = "x" pounds of food per day

This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying

[tex]\frac{3}{5} = \frac{250}{x}\\\\3 \times x = 250 \times 5\\\\3x = 1250\\\\x = 416.67[/tex]

Thus 416.67 pounds of food should be given all five lions each day

Answer:

95%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the percentage of healthy adults have body temperatures within 2 standard deviations of 98.32 degrees°F.

We will use Empirical rule of normal distribution to answer our given problem.

Empirical rule of normal distribution states that 68% of data falls within the first standard deviation from the mean. 95% of data fall within two standard deviations. 99.7% of data fall within three standard deviations.

Therefore, 95% of healthy adults have body temperatures within 2 standard deviations of 98.32 degrees°F.

The discount amount of exercise machine is $ 102

The sales price of machine is $ 748

Solution:

Given that,

Original price of machine is $ 850

Discount rate = 12 %

To find: discount amount and sales price of machine

Given that discount rate is 12 % , which means 12 % of original price of machine

Discount amount = 12 % of original price of machine

Discount amount = 12 % of 850

[tex]Discount\ Amount = 12 \% \times 850\\\\Discount\ Amount = \frac{12}{100} \times 850\\\\Discount\ Amount = 0.12 \times 850 = 102[/tex]

Thus the discount amount is $ 102

Sales price = Original price - Discount amount

[tex]Sales\ Price = 850 - 102\\\\Sales\ Price = 748[/tex]

Thus the sales price of machine is $ 748

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of one adult ticket.

Let y represent the price of one student ticket.

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 24 adult tickets and 3 student tickets for a total of $223.00. This means that

24x + 3y = 223 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

The school took in $152 on the second day by selling 7 adult tickets and 6 student tickets. This means that

7x + 6y = 152 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes

144x + 18y = 1338

21x + 18y = 456

Subtracting, it becomes

123x = 882

x = 882/123

x = 7.17

Substituting x = 7.17 into equation 2, it becomes

7 × 7.17 + 6y = 152

50.19 + 6y = 152

6y = 152 - 50.19 = 101.81

y = 101.81/6 = 16.97

Question: John drove to a distant city in 5 hours.

When he returned, there was less traffic and the trip took only 3 hours.

If John averaged 26 mph faster on the return trip, how fast did he drive each way

Answer:

For the first trip he drove at a speed of 39 mph

For the second trip he drove at a speed of 65 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance for both journey be Z because they are equal.

Let the speed for the first journey be X

Let the speed of the second journey be Y

Formula for speed = distance ÷ time

For the first journey the speed X = Z ÷ 5

For the second journey the speed Y = Z ÷ 3

Since John averaged 26 mph faster in the second trip than the first trip due to traffic, it means that the difference in speed between the first & second trip is 26 mph

Difference in speed = (Z÷3) - (Z÷5) = 26

subtracting both results to  (5Z-3Z) ÷ 15 = 26

Upon cross multiplication

2Z = 390

Z = 390÷2 = 195 miles

Therefore speed for first journey = 195 ÷ 5 = 39 mph

Speed for second journey = 195 ÷ 3 = 65 mph

To verify, 65 - 39 = 26 mph

Answer:

100/240/260 will be the combination.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right angle triangle JKL,

∠JKL = 90° and side JL is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

By Pythagoras theorem,

JK² + KL² = JL²

Since JL = 260

Therefore, (JK)² + (KL)²= (260)² = 67600

In the given options, square of two numbers total becomes 67600.

And the possible numbers will be 100 and 240.

(100)² + (240)² = 10000 + 57600 = 67600

Since side JK > side KL

Therefore, measure of JK = 240 cm, KL = 100 cm and JL = 240 cm could be the combination among all values.

To determine the width of the frame, subtract twice the frame width from the length and width of the outer rectangle and set up an equation based on the perimeter.

To determine the width of the frame, we need to first find the dimensions of the inner rectangle formed by the painting. If we subtract twice the frame width from the length and width of the outer rectangle, we get the length and width of the inner rectangle. Let's call the width of the frame 'x'.

The length of the inner rectangle is 15 inches - 2 inches, and the width of the inner rectangle is 18 inches - 2 inches. The perimeter of the inner rectangle is the sum of its four sides, which can be calculated using the

formula P = 2l + 2w. We know that the perimeter of the inner rectangle is 90 inches, so we can set up the equation:

90 = 2(15 - 2x) + 2(18 - 2x)

Solving this equation will give us the value of 'x', which represents the width of the frame.

Answer:

Option A) Whether or not a subject graduates high school      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following experiment in the question:

Experiment:  if preschool attendance is associated with high school graduation for low-income students.

Independent variable: preschool attendance

The children were divided into two groups, one group will attend preschool program, the second group will not attend preschool.

The response variable is another term for dependent variable.

Here,

Dependent variable: whether or not children will graduate from high school.

Because this is dependent on the variable whether the child attends the preschool or not.

Option A) Whether or not a subject graduates high school

Final answer:

The response variable in the study is A) Whether or not a subject graduates high school. This measures the outcome of the treatment, which is preschool attendance for low-income children.

Explanation:

In this study, the response variable is the outcome that the researcher is trying to measure as a result of manipulating the experimental conditions. The experimental condition in this case is whether the child attends preschool or not. Hence, the response variable would be A) Whether or not a subject graduates high school. The preschool attendance (C) is the independent variable or treatment variable, as it is what the researcher manipulates and controls. The variables of the length of time it takes to graduate (B), and the income status of the children (D) are not the focus of the measurement for the direct effect of preschool attendance.

Low-income children have been observed to have various educational disadvantages compared to their wealthier peers, such as lower standardized test scores, lower graduation rates, and higher dropout rates. The study aims to investigate if attending preschool can help bridge the educational achievement gap that starts before children even enter formal schooling. By assigning low-income children randomly to either attend preschool or not, the researcher can control for other variables and focus on the impact of preschool attendance on high school graduation.

Answer:there are 42 students in the club.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the number of students in the club.

Tickets to the museum cost $8. Five students already have a membership to the museum, so they will get in for free. The club raised the $296 needed to take all students in the club to the museum. This means that

8(s - 5) = 296

8s - 40 = 296

8s = 296 + 40 = 336

s = 336/8

s = 42

Answer:

Russia gets 267 baseball cards in a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of packs given per month = 2

Number of cards in each pack = 11

Number of cards given on his birthday = 3

Now, we know that, there are 12 months in a year.

Using unitary method, the total number of packs given in year and total cards can be calculated. So,

Packs given in 1 month = 2

∴ Packs given in 12 months = 2 × 12 = 24

Number of cards in 1 pack = 11

∴ Number of cards in 24 packs = 11 × 24 = 264

Now, his birthday will come once in a year. So, additional cards received by him will be 3 only. So,

Total number of cards = Number of cards in 24 packs + Additional cards

Total number of cards = 264 + 3 = 267

Therefore, Russia gets 267 baseball cards in a year.

A nickel is worth 5 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes

5/100 = $0.05

A dime is worth 10 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes

10/100 = $0.1

Let x represent the number if nickels.

Let y represent the number of dimes.

He has no more than 19 coins. This means that

x + y ≤ 19

He has no less than $1.30 combined. This means that

0.05x + 0.1y ≥ 1.3

If Nolan has 5 nickels, then, substituting x = 5 into x + y ≤ 19, it becomes

5 + y ≤ 19

y ≤ 19 - 5

y ≤ 14

substituting x = 5 into 0.05x + 0.1y ≥ 1.3, it becomes

0.05 × 5 + 0.1y ≥ 1.3

0.25 + 0.1y ≥ 1.3

0.1y ≥ 1.3 - 0.25

0.1y ≥ 1.05

y ≥ 1.05/0.1

y ≥ 10.5

Therefore, all possible values for the number of dimes that he could have would be

10.5 ≤ y ≤ 14

Answer:

Square pyramid cup is better deal then Cone cup.

Step-by-step explanation:

Diagram is missing in the question we have attached diagram for your reference.

Given:

height of square pyramid = 20 cm

height of cone = 20 cm

Base of square pyramid = 12 cm

diameter of cone = 12 cm

radius of cone is half of diameter.

radius of cone = [tex]\frac{diameter}{2}=\frac{12}{2} = 6\ cm[/tex]

We need to find the which cup is the better deal.

Solution:

We will first find the volume of both cups and then we can say the the one which has greater volume is the better deal in buying.

Volume of square pyramid is calculated by one third times square of the base times height.

framing in equation form we get;

Volume of square pyramid  = [tex]\frac{1}{3}\times 12^2\times20= 960\ cm^3[/tex]

Now we know that;

Volume of cone is calculated by one third times square of the radius times height times π.

framing in equation form we get;

Volume of cone = [tex]\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h= \frac{1}{3}\pi\times 6^2\times 20 \approx 754cm^3[/tex]

Now we can see that;

Volume of square pyramid cup which [tex]960\ cm^3[/tex] is greater than Volume of cone cup [tex]754\ cm^3[/tex]

Hence Amount of popcorn will be more in square pyramid cup then in cone cup.

Hence Square pyramid cup is better deal then Cone cup.

When we do this, we get 3x + 15 = x - 7.

Then subtract x to get 2x + 15 = -7.

Then subtract 15 to get 2x = -22.

Then divide both sides of the equation by 2 and we find that x = -11.

Answer:

a) 0.54

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient can be found by taking square root of R-squared value and the sign of correlation coefficient can be assessed by considering the sign of slope value. So,

r²=28.8%=28.8/100=0.288

r=[tex]\sqrt{r^{2} }[/tex]=[tex]\sqrt{0.288}[/tex]=0.5367

By rounding to two decimal places the correlation coefficient

r=0.54

We can see that slope=0.4845 has positive sign so, the correlation coefficient contains the positive sign.

Hence the correlation coefficient r=0.54.

The experimental probability that a light build chosen at random has no defects is 99.5 % or P(A)=0.995.

Step-by-step explanation:

let S be the sample space for the inspection of the light bulbs.

Therefore, n(s) = 800

let ' A ' be the event of no defects bulbs.

Therefore, n(A) = 796

Now the Experiment probability for a light bulb chosen has no defects will be given by,

[tex]P(A)=\dfrac{n(A)}{n(S)}[/tex]

Substituting the values we get

[tex]P(A)=\dfrac{796}{800}=0.995[/tex]

The experimental probability that a light build chosen at random has no defects is 99.5 % or P(A)=0.995.
