Historically, about ​53% of the population of a certain country believed that the​ planet's temperature was rising​ ("global warming"). A March 2010 poll wanted to determine whether this proportion had changed. The poll interviewed adults in the​ population, and said they believed that global warming was real.​ (Assume these adults represented a simple random​ sample.)

Required:
a. What percentage in the sample believed global warming was real in 2010?
b. Is this more or less than the historical 57%?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) The proportion is 61.23%

(b) It is more than the historical 57%

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has missing details, and they are:

[tex]n = 926[/tex] ---- The Sample Adults

[tex]x = 567[/tex] -- Those that believe global warming was real

Solving (a): The proportion of those that believe.

This is calculated as:

[tex]p = \frac{x}{n}[/tex]

Substitute values for x and n

[tex]p = \frac{567}{926}[/tex]

[tex]p = 0.6123[/tex]

Express as percentage

[tex]p = 0.6123 * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]p = 61.23\%[/tex]

Solving (b) More or less than 57%

By comparison:

[tex]61.2\% > 57\%[/tex]

Hence, it is more than the historical 57%

7n - 4 (8n+4) = 159

Answers

Answer:

n = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Use distributive property:

7n - 32n - 16 = 159

Combine like terms

-25n - 16 = 159

Add 16 to both sides to isolate variable n

-25n = 175

Divide both sides by -25 to isolate variable n

n = -7

Check your work:

7(-7) - 32(-7) - 16 = 159

-49 + 224 - 16 = 159

159 = 159

Kristin charges $30 to train a small dog, and $50 to train a big dog. If Kristin trains 15 small dogs and 6 big dogs, how much money will she make?

Answers

Answer:

$750

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up the equation 30x + 50y =  z where x = the amount of small dogs, y = the amount of big dogs, and z = the total.

After plugging in the x and y values to solve for z, we are left with the following equation:

30(15) + 50(6) = 750

(b)1 1/2

(d)5 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) 11/3 - 17/12 = 44/12 - 17/12 = 27/12 = 9/4 = 2 1/4

(b) 33/10 - 18/10 = 15/10 = 3/2 = 1 1/2

(c) 41/9 - 7/2 = 82/18 - 63/18 = 19/18 = 1 1/18

(d) 47/6 - 9/4 = 94/12 - 27/12 = 67/12 = 5 7/12

a) 3 2/3 - 1 5/12 we’ll convert to 12ths by multiplying the numerator and denominator of the first mixed number by 4.
3 8/12 - 1 5/12 = 2 3/12 = 2 1/4

b) 3 3/10 - 1 4/5 we’ll convert to 10ths by multiplying the numerator and denominator of the second mixed number by two.

3 3/10 - 1 8/10
Now we need to borrow from the three wholes to create more tenths
2 13/10 - 1 8/10 = 1 5/10 = 1 1/2

Or you can convert the first one to 33/10, and the second one to 9/5, which becomes 18/10.
33/10 - 18/10 = 15/10 = 1 1/2
Do whichever one makes more sense to your brain.

c) 4 5/9 - 3 1/2 we will convert both to 18ths.
4 10/18 - 3 9/18 = 1 1/18

d) 7 5/6 - 2 1/4 we will convert both to 12ths.
7 10/12 - 2 3/12 = 5 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles a° and c° are also vertical angles, so must be equal, which means they are 140° each. Answer: a = 140°, b = 40° and c = 140°. Note: They are also called Vertically Opposite Angles, which is just a more exact way of saying the same thing.

For each pair of function f and g below, find f(g(x)) and g(f(x)).

a. f(x)=3/x,x=/= 0
b. g(x)=3/x, x=/=0
c. f(x)=x+4
d. g(x)=-x+4

Answers

Answer:

(a) and (b)

[tex]f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x[/tex]

(c) and (d)

[tex]f(g(x)) =-x + 8[/tex]

[tex]g(f(x)) = x + 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(a) to (d)

Required

Find f(g(x)) and g(f(x)) for each pair

For (a) and (b), we have:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{3}{x}[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = \frac{3}{x}[/tex]

Calculate f(g(x))

[tex]f(x) = \frac{3}{x}[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = \frac{3}{g(x)}[/tex]

Substitute 3/x for g(x)

[tex]f(g(x)) = \frac{3}{3/x}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]f(g(x)) = 3/\frac{3}{x}[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = 3*\frac{x}{3}[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = x[/tex]

Since f(x) = g(x), then:

[tex]f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x[/tex]

For (c) and (d)

[tex]f(x) =x + 4[/tex]

[tex]g(x) =-x + 4[/tex]

Solving f(g(x)), we have:

[tex]f(x) =x + 4[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) =g(x) + 4[/tex]

Substitute [tex]g(x) =-x + 4[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) =-x + 4 + 4[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) =-x + 8[/tex]

Calculating g(f(x))

[tex]g(x) =-x + 4[/tex]

[tex]g(f(x)) = -f(x) + 4[/tex]

Substitute: [tex]f(x) =x + 4[/tex]

[tex]g(f(x)) = x + 4 + 4[/tex]

[tex]g(f(x)) = x + 8[/tex]

What is the equation in stope intercepe form of the line that passes through the points (-4.47) and (2.-16)​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = -\frac{21}{2}x+5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (-4,47)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (2,-16)[/tex]

Required

The equation in slope intercept

First, calculate the slope (m)

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Where:

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (-4,47)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (2,-16)[/tex]

So:

[tex]m = \frac{-16 - 47}{2 - -4}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{-63}{6}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]m = -\frac{21}{2}[/tex]

So, the equation is calculated as:

[tex]y = m(x - x_1) + y_2[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]y = -\frac{21}{2}(x - -4) + 47[/tex]

[tex]y = -\frac{21}{2}(x+4) + 47[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]y = -\frac{21}{2}x-42 + 47[/tex]

[tex]y = -\frac{21}{2}x+5[/tex]

I really need to go to the store. I bought an 80 ounce container of orange juice. Right now, there's only 4 ounces left. What percent of the orange juice is left? If you're ever at my house, help yourself to the stull in my fridge.​

Answers

Answer:

There is 5% of the juice left.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that originally, the container had 80 oz of orange juice, this is the 100% in our case.

Then we can write a relation:

80 oz = 100%

Now there are 4 ounces left, in the same way than before, we can write this as:

4 oz = X%

We want to find X%

First, let's write our equtions:

4 oz = X%

80 oz = 100%

We can take the quotient between these two equations to get:

(4oz/80oz) = (X%/100%)

We need to solve this for X%, then we get:

(4oz/80oz)*100% = X% = 5%

This means that 4 oz is 5% of the initial volume of the juice container.

Then we can conclude that there is 5% of the juice left.

The circle shown above is centered at the origin and contains the point (-4, -2).

What is the length of the diameter to the nearest tenth of the circle?

Answers

Answer:

8.9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the circle is centered at origin. So, coordinates of center are (0, 0)Point (-4, - 2) is located on the circle. So, distance between (0, 0) & (-4, - 2) will be the radius of the circle.

[tex] \therefore \: r = \sqrt{ {( - 4 - 0)}^{2} + {( - 2 - 0)}^{2} } \\ \\ \therefore \: r = \sqrt{ {( - 4)}^{2} + {( - 2)}^{2} } \\ \\ \therefore \: r= \sqrt{16 + 4} \\ \\ \therefore \: r= \sqrt{20} \\ \\ \therefore \:2 r= 2 \sqrt{20} \\ \\ \therefore \:2 r=8.94427191 \\ \\ 2r = 8.9 \: \\ \\ diameter \: = 8.9 \: units[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

v = −4/−24x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for v.

3v(1/8−x) = −1/2

Step 1: Factor out variable v.

v(−24x+3/8) = −1/2

Step 2: Divide both sides by (-24x+3)/8.

v(−24x+3/8)/−24x+3/8 = −1/2/−24x+3/8
