Some pens are shared among three students anne,lucy, and John.Anne gets 5 times many pens as lucy, and lucy gets 2 pens less than john. Suppose John gets x pens, how many pens does anne get in terms of x
Using a system of equations, it is found that Anne gets 5x - 10 pens.
What is a system of equations?A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, we consider that John gets x pens.
Lucy gets 2 pens less than john, hence:
L = x - 2.
Anne gets 5 times many pens as lucy, hence:
A = 5L = 5(x - 2) = 5x - 10.

A doctor conducts a survey with a random sample of his patients, measuring their cholesterol levels in millimolar per liter.
The data measurements for 14 patients are given below. Assuming the population standard deviation is o = 1.3 and that
the population is normally distributed, compute a 90% confidence interval for the mean cholesterol levels of his patients.
Round your answers to two decimal places and use ascending order.
Using the z-distribution, as we have the standard deviation for the population, it is found that the 90% confidence interval for the mean cholesterol levels of his patients is (5.59, 6.73).
What is a t-distribution confidence interval?The confidence interval is:
[tex]\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which:
[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.z is the critical value.n is the sample size.[tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation for the sample.In this problem, we have a 90% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.90[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.645.
Researching on the internet, the other parameters are given by:
[tex]\overline{x} = 6.16, \sigma = 1.3, n = 14[/tex]
Hence:
[tex]\overline{x} - z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 6.16 - 1.645\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{14}} = 5.59[/tex]
[tex]\overline{x} + z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 6.16 + 1.645\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{14}} = 6.73[/tex]
The 90% confidence interval for the mean cholesterol levels of his patients is (5.59, 6.73).

(WILL MARK BRAINLIEST) Keisha is playing a game using a wheel divided into 8 equal sectors, as shown in the diagram below. Each time the spinner lands on blue, she will win a prize.
If Keisha spins this wheel twice, what is the probability that she will win a prize on both spins?
Answer:
6/11
Each time you spin the pointer there is a 3/8 for each of the two spins. That means there is a 6/11 chance of the pointer landing on blue for both times the pointer is spun.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each spin there are 8 possible sections the spinner can land on. The circle has 3 blue sections. The question asks what is the probability of the spinner landing on blue for BOTH spins. This means that you would have to show the denominator as 16. Each time you spin the pointer there is a 3/8 chance it will touch blue. When you spin it two times there is a 6/16 probability that the spinner will land on blue for each of the times the pointer is spun.

c) To find slope, choose any two points.
(2,16) & (4 , 31)
[tex]\boxed{slope= \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}[/tex]
[tex]\sf =\dfrac{31-16}{4-2}\\\\=\dfrac{15}{2}=7.5[/tex]
The slope is 7.5, which means that Kobby's puppy gained 7.5 pounds a month for the first 6 months.
a) Equation of line in slope -intercept form: y = mx +b
[tex]y =\dfrac{15}{2}x+b[/tex]
Now, substitute the point (2 ,16) in the above equaiton and find the y-intercept b.
[tex]\sf 16 =\dfrac{15}{2}*2+b\\\\16=15+b\\\\16-15=b[/tex]
b = 1
Equation of the line:
[tex]y=\dfrac{15}{2}x+1[/tex]
b) y-intercept = 1
The y-intercept is 1, which means that Kobby'spuppy weighed 1 pound at birth

A group of students is writing a phone message app to provide better word suggestions based on the context of the word and the words the person used in the past. They will earn an A on the project if their teacher is convinced that their program suggests the correct word at least 54% of the time. The current success rate for this app is 54%. The teacher randomly selects 100 words and finds that the students’ program correctly suggests 64 of the words. To determine if this data provide convincing evidence that the proportion of correct words is more than 54%, 150 trials of a simulation are conducted. The results are shown in the dotplot. The teacher is testing the hypotheses: H0: p = 54% and Ha: p > 54%, where p = the true proportion of words the app will correctly predict. Based on the results of the simulation, what is the estimate of the P-value of the test?

Find the coordinates of the vertex for the parabola defined by the given quadratic function.
f(x) = 2x² – 20x +7
The vertex is
(Type an ordered pair.)
Answer:
(5, -43)
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of the x-coordinate of the vertex of a function in standard form is given by -b/2a. The value of a is the coefficient of the x^2 term. The value of b is the coefficient of the x term. In this problem, a = 2 and b = -20. When you evaluate -b/2a you would replace the b with -20 and replace the a with 2 so you get -(-20)/2(2) so the value of x is 5. Determine the value of y by evaluating f(5) = 2(5)^2 - 20(5) +7.

In 8- 11 find the area of each parrelogram or rhombus
The areas of the two parallelograms are 105 square inches and 20.997 square yards, respectively.
How to determine the area of a parallelogram
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides with equal length and two pairs of angles of equal measure. The area of the parallelogram (A), in square yards or square inches, equals the product of its base length (b), in yards, and its height (h), in yards.
The area of each parallelogram is determined afterwards:
Exercise 10A = (10.5 in) · (10 in)
A = 105 in²
Exercise 11A = (9 yd) · (2.333 yd)
A = 20.997 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Function g(x) = 2x²-x-1, [2,5],
N = 6 rectangles
To find:
Two approximation (Left endpoint and Right endpoint of the area) of the area.
Solution:
Using Right endpoint approximation,
[tex]\Delta x = \frac{b - a}{N} \\ \Delta x = \frac{5 - 2}{6} \\ \Delta x = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Now,
[tex]\displaystyle\sf \: R_n = \Delta x \: \sum_{i=1}^N f(a + i \Delta x)[/tex]
Where i = 1,2,3,4......
Substituting value of N, ∆x and a in above equation,
[tex]\displaystyle\sf \: R_n = \Delta x \: \sum_{i=1}^N f(a + i \Delta x) \\ \displaystyle\sf \: R_n = \frac{1}{2} \: \sum_{i=1}^6 f(2 + i \cdot \frac{1}{2} ) \\ \displaystyle\sf \: R_n = \frac{1}{2} \: \sum_{i=1}^6 f(2 + \frac{i}{2} ) \\ \displaystyle\sf \: R_n = \frac{1}{2} \: \sum_{i=1}^6 f( \frac{4 + i}{2} ) [/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle\sf \: R_n = \frac{1}{2} \bigg( f( \frac {5}{2}) + f( 3) +f( \frac {7}{2}) + f( 4) + f( \frac {9}{2}) + f( 5) \bigg) [/tex]
Substituting the corresponding values of x in given function 2x²-x-1
[tex]\displaystyle\sf \: R_n = \frac{1}{2} \bigg(2 \times { (\frac{5}{2} )}^{2} - \frac{5}{2} - 1 ....... +2 \times { ({5} )}^{2} - {5}- 1 \bigg) [/tex]
After solving each function,
[tex]\displaystyle\sf \: R_n = \frac{1}{2} \bigg(9 + 14 +20 + 27 + 35 + 44\bigg) \\ \displaystyle\sf \: R_n \: = \frac{149}{2} [/tex]
Similarly for left endpoint approximation,
[tex]\displaystyle\sf \: L_n = \Delta x \: \sum_{i=0}^{N - 1} f(a + i \Delta x)[/tex]
Where i = 0,1,2,3......
Substituting value of N, ∆x and a in above equation,
[tex]\displaystyle\sf \: L_n = \Delta x \: \sum_{i=0}^{N } f(a + i \Delta x) \\ \displaystyle\sf \: L_n = \frac{1}{2} \: \sum_{i=0}^{N } f(2 + i \frac{1}{2} ) \\\displaystyle\sf \: L_n = \frac{1}{2} \: \sum_{i=0}^6 f( \frac{4 + i}{2} ) [/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle\sf \: L_n = \frac{1}{2} \bigg(f( 2) + f( \frac {5}{2}) + f( 3) +f( \frac {7}{2}) + f( 4) + f( \frac {9}{2}) + \bigg) [/tex]
Substituting the corresponding values of x in given function 2x²-x-1
[tex]\displaystyle\sf \: L_n = \frac{1}{2} \bigg(5+ 9 + 14 +20 + 27 + 35 \bigg) \\ \displaystyle\sf \: L_n \: = \frac{110}{2} = 55 \\ [/tex]
Right approximation 149/2
Left approximation 55
Hence the Area is bounded in,

[tex](9*7) + 7 - 8 = ?[/tex]
We can solve this by using the PEMDAS concept where,
P = Parentheses E = Exponents M = Multiplication D = Division A = Addition S = SubtractionSo, to solve this, we need to solve the numbers in the parentheses by doing the requested operation (here it is, mutiplucation).
[tex](9*7) + 7 - 8\\= (63) + 7 - 8[/tex]
Now, by looking at the PEMDAS rule, we can see that the next step is addition (as, we don't have to divide in this question).
[tex](63) + 7 - 8\\= 63 + 7 - 8\\= 70 - 8[/tex]
Now, subtract 8 from 70 .
