The solution to the equation is z = 15.

To solve the equation 2(2z-3)=3(z+3), we first need to simplify each side of the equation by distributing the numbers outside of the parentheses to the terms inside the parentheses.

On the left side of the equation, we have 2(2z-3). Distributing the 2 to the terms inside the parentheses gives us:

2(2z) - 2(3) = 4z - 6

On the right side of the equation, we have 3(z+3). Distributing the 3 to the terms inside the parentheses gives us:

3(z) + 3(3) = 3z + 9

Now we can rewrite the equation as:

4z - 6 = 3z + 9

Next, we want to get all of the z terms on one side of the equation and all of the constant terms on the other side. We can do this by subtracting 3z from both sides of the equation and adding 6 to both sides of the equation:

4z - 3z = 9 + 6

Simplifying gives us:

z = 15

The probability that Ann's score is above 600 is 1 - 0.6628 = 0.3372.

(a) The shape of the sampling distribution of the sample means will be approximately normal. This is because of the Central Limit Theorem, which states that the sampling distribution of the sample means will be approximately normal if the sample size is large enough, regardless of the shape of the population distribution. In this case, the sample size of 35 is large enough for the Central Limit Theorem to apply.

(b) The mean of the sampling distribution of the sample means will be equal to the mean of the population, which is 550. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample means will be equal to the standard deviation of the population divided by the square root of the sample size, which is 120/√35 ≈ 20.28.

(c) To find the probability that the average score of the 35 selected students is above 600, we need to find the z-score for 600 using the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample means. The z-score is (600 - 550)/20.28 ≈ 2.47. Using a z-table, we can find the probability that the z-score is less than 2.47, which is 0.9932. Therefore, the probability that the average score of the 35 selected students is above 600 is 1 - 0.9932 = 0.0068.

(d) To find the probability that Ann's score is above 600, we need to find the z-score for 600 using the mean and standard deviation of the population. The z-score is (600 - 550)/120 ≈ 0.42. Using a z-table, we can find the probability that the z-score is less than 0.42, which is 0.6628.

Nicole has 8 nickels and 7 dimes.

A system of equations is simply two or more equations that share the same variables.

Let's use a system of equations to solve this problem:

Let x be the number of nickels, and y be the number of dimes.

From the problem, we know that:

x + y = 15 (equation 1) (the total number of coins is 15)

0.05x + 0.1y = 1.1 (equation 2) (the total value of the coins is $1.10)

To solve for x and y, we can use substitution or elimination. Let's use elimination:

Multiply equation 1 by 0.1:

0.1x + 0.1y = 1.5 (equation 3)

Subtract equation 3 from equation 2:

0.05x = 0.4

x = 8

Substitute x = 8 into equation 1:

8 + y = 15

y = 7

a. The standard error of the mean would be 9.49.

b. The probability that the sample mean will be less than $125 is 0.1539.

c. The probability that the sample mean will be more than $145 is 0.1401.

d. The probability that the sample mean will be between $120 and $160 is 0.9356.

e. The symmetrical interval that includes 95% of the sample means is ($116.11, $153.31).

a. The standard error of the mean is calculated using the formula:

SE = σ / √n

where σ is the standard deviation and n is the sample size.

In this case, σ = $30 and n = 10. So, the standard error of the mean is:

SE = 30 / √10

SE = 9.49

b. To find the probability that the sample mean will be less than $125, we need to calculate the z-score:

z = (x - μ) / SE

where x is the sample mean, μ is the population mean, and SE is the standard error of the mean.

In this case, x = $125, μ = $134.71, and SE = 9.49. So, the z-score is:

z = (125 - 134.71) / 9.49

z = -1.02

Using a z-table, we find that the probability of getting a z-score less than -1.02 is 0.1539. So, the probability that the sample mean will be less than $125 is 0.1539.

c. To find the probability that the sample mean will be more than $145, we need to calculate the z-score:

z = (x - μ) / SE

where x is the sample mean, μ is the population mean, and SE is the standard error of the mean.

In this case, x = $145, μ = $134.71, and SE = 9.49. So, the z-score is:

z = (145 - 134.71) / 9.49

z = 1.08

Using a z-table, we find that the probability of getting a z-score less than 1.08 is 0.8599. So, the probability that the sample mean will be more than $145 is 1 - 0.8599 = 0.1401.

d. To find the probability that the sample mean will be between $120 and $160, we need to calculate the z-scores for both values:

z1 = (x1 - μ) / SE

z2 = (x2 - μ) / SE

where x1 and x2 are the sample means, μ is the population mean, and SE is the standard error of the mean.

In this case, x1 = $120, x2 = $160, μ = $134.71, and SE = 9.49. So, the z-scores are:

z1 = (120 - 134.71) / 9.49

z1 = -1.55

z2 = (160 - 134.71) / 9.49

z2 = 2.67

Using a z-table, we find that the probability of getting a z-score less than -1.55 is 0.0606 and the probability of getting a z-score less than 2.67 is 0.9962. So, the probability that the sample mean will be between $120 and $160 is 0.9962 - 0.0606 = 0.9356.

e. To find the symmetrical interval that includes 95% of the sample means, we need to use the formula:

x = μ ± z*SE

where x is the sample mean, μ is the population mean, z is the z-score, and SE is the standard error of the mean.

In this case, μ = $134.71, z = 1.96 (for a 95% confidence interval), and SE = 9.49. So, the symmetrical interval is:

x = 134.71 ± 1.96*9.49

x = 134.71 ± 18.6

x = (116.11, 153.31)

So, the symmetrical interval that includes 95% of the sample means is ($116.11, $153.31).

The distance between the two groups after the hikes is approximately 12.04 miles.

A right triangle's connection between its sides is described by the Pythagorean Theorem, a foundational idea in mathematics. It claims that the hypotenuse's square length, which is the side that faces the right angle, equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides of any right triangle. The Pythagorean Theorem is frequently used to solve issues involving distance, velocity, and acceleration and has various applications in the disciplines of geometry, trigonometry, and physics.

The distance between the two groups serves as the hypotenuse of a right triangle, which is formed by the two pathways. The following formula can be used to determine the hypotenuse's length:

Distance = √((2+7)² + (5+3)²)

When a point is reflected across the x-axis, its y-coordinate changes sign while its x-coordinate remains the same.

Therefore, to find the coordinates of the reflected point D, we simply change the sign of the y-coordinate of point D.

Given that the coordinates of point D are (3/4,3), its reflected point D' across the x-axis will have the coordinates (3/4, -3).

Therefore, the reflected point D' is located at the point (3/4, -3).

Coordinates are pairs of numbers used to identify the position of a point in a two-dimensional plane. In a Cartesian coordinate system, the two numbers represent the x-coordinate (the horizontal position) and the y-coordinate (the vertical position) of the point.

For example, the point (3, 5) has an x-coordinate of 3 and a y-coordinate of 5. This means that the point is located 3 units to the right of the origin (the point where the x- and y-axes intersect) and 5 units above the x-axis. Similarly, the point (-2, -1) has an x-coordinate of -2 and a y-coordinate of -1, which means that it is located 2 units to the left of the origin and 1 unit below the x-axis.

Answer:

To find the name of the restaurant, we need to find the intersection point of the two streets.

The equation of Second Street is y = (-4/3)x + 4/3.

The equation of Washington Boulevard is y = (3/7)x - 3/7.

To find the intersection point, we can set the two equations equal to each other:

(-4/3)x + 4/3 = (3/7)x - 3/7

Multiplying both sides by 21 (the least common multiple of 3 and 7) to eliminate fractions, we get:

-28x + 28 = 9x - 9

Bringing all the x terms to one side and all the constants to the other side, we get:

-37x = -37

Dividing both sides by -37, we get:

x = 1

Substituting this value of x into either equation, we can find y:

y = (-4/3)(1) + 4/3 = 0

Therefore, the intersection point of Second Street and Washington Boulevard is (1,0), which means the restaurant is located at that point.
