A pair of pants costs $24.60 when it is on sale for 25% off. What was the
original cost of the pants? (still....no labels!)

Answers

Answer 1

well, we know the pants are 25% off, that means the current sale price is only 75% of the original price, say the original price is "x" or 100%.  So we know that $24.60 is 75%, what is the 100%?

[tex]\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 24.6&75\\ x&100 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{24.6}{x}=\cfrac{75}{100}\implies \cfrac{24.6}{x}=\cfrac{3}{4} \\\\\\ 98.4=3x \implies \cfrac{98.4}{3}=x\implies 32.8=x[/tex]

(C) Interpret the results (the interval) you got in (A) and (B)

Answers

The correct answer to the given question is "[tex]\bold{392.47\ < \mu <\ 427.53}[/tex],[tex]\bold{0.28 \ < P <\ 0.34}[/tex], and for Interpret results go to the C part.

Following are the solution to the given parts:

A)

[tex]\to \bold{(n) = 16}[/tex]

[tex]\to \bold{(\bar{X}) = 410}[/tex]

[tex]\to \bold{(\sigma) = 40}[/tex]

In the given question, we calculate [tex]90\%[/tex] of the confidence interval for the mean weight of shipped homemade candies that can be calculated as follows:

[tex]\to \bold{\bar{X} \pm t_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} \times \frac{S}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]\to \bold{C.I= 0.90}\\\\\to \bold{(\alpha) = 1 - 0.90 = 0.10}\\\\ \to \bold{\frac{\alpha}{2} = \frac{0.10}{2} = 0.05}\\\\ \to \bold{(df) = n-1 = 16-1 = 15}\\\\[/tex]

Using the t table we calculate [tex]t_{ \frac{\alpha}{2}} = 1.753[/tex]  When [tex]90\%[/tex] of the confidence interval:

[tex]\to \bold{410 \pm 1.753 \times \frac{40}{\sqrt{16}}}\\\\ \to \bold{410 \pm 17.53\\\\ \to392.47 < \mu < 427.53}[/tex]

So [tex]90\%[/tex] confidence interval for the mean weight of shipped homemade candies is between [tex]392.47\ \ and\ \ 427.53[/tex].

B)

[tex]\to \bold{(n) = 500}[/tex]

[tex]\to \bold{(X) = 155}[/tex]

[tex]\to \bold{(p') = \frac{X}{n} = \frac{155}{500} = 0.31}[/tex]

Here we need to calculate [tex]90\%[/tex] confidence interval for the true proportion of all college students who own a car which can be calculated as

[tex]\to \bold{p' \pm Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} \times \sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]\to \bold{C.I= 0.90}[/tex]

[tex]\to\bold{ (\alpha) = 0.10}[/tex]

[tex]\to\bold{ \frac{\alpha}{2} = 0.05}[/tex]

Using the Z-table we found [tex]\bold{Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} = 1.645}[/tex]

therefore [tex]90\%[/tex] the confidence interval for the genuine proportion of college students who possess a car is

[tex]\to \bold{0.31 \pm 1.645\times \sqrt{\frac{0.31\times (1-0.31)}{500}}}\\\\ \to \bold{0.31 \pm 0.034}\\\\ \to \bold{0.276 < p < 0.344}[/tex]

So [tex]90\%[/tex] the confidence interval for the genuine proportion of college students who possess a car is between [tex]0.28 \ and\ 0.34.[/tex]

C)

In question A, We are  [tex]90\%[/tex] certain that the weight of supplied homemade candies is between 392.47 grams and 427.53 grams.In question B, We are  [tex]90\%[/tex] positive that the true percentage of college students who possess a car is between 0.28 and 0.34.

Find the area of each figure one of the sides are 8.3cm it’s a square btw

Answers

Answer:

68.89 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

8.3 X 8.3 would equal 68.89 cm. We can see that one side is 8.3 cm, and the other sides don't say their sides, so the only number we will use for multiplying is 8.3, and all sides of the square will be 8.3. The equation is L X W, where L is the length, and W is the width. Since 8.3 is on all four sides, it will also be the length and the width on the equation. As a result, 68.89 cm would be the final answer.

Answer:

I don't real know if this is right, but I think its this:

68.89 cm2 is the area.

Mr. E bought 3 drinks and 5 sandwiches for $25.05 and Mr. E bought 4 drinks and 2 sandwiches $13.80. how much does each drink cost?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

drink: $1.35sandwich: $4.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d and s represent the cost of a drink and a sandwich, respectively. The two purchases give rise to the equations ...

  3d +5s = 25.05

  4d +2s = 13.80

Dividing the second equation by 2 gives ...

  2d + s = 6.90

Subtracting the first equation from 5 times this, we get ...

  5(2d +s) -(3d +5s) = 5(6.90) -25.05

  7d = 34.50 -25.05 = 9.45

  d = 1.35

The cost of each drink is $1.35.

__

Additional comment

Using the simplified 2nd equation, we can find the cost of a sandwich.

  s = 6.90 -2d = 6.90 -2.70 = 4.20

The cost of each sandwich is $4.20.

In a die game, you roll a standard 6-sided die twice. If the second number rolled is the same as the first number rolled, you win $25. Otherwise, you lose $2. If you were to play the game 100 times, how much money can you expect to make

Answers

Answer:

You can expect to make $250.

Step-by-step explanation:

Possible outcomes:

For the pair of dice:

(1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5), (1,6)

(2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (2,5), (2,6)

(3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (3,4), (3,5), (3,6)

(4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5), (4,6)

(5,1), (5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (5,6)

(6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)

So 36 total outcomes.

Probability of the second number rolled being the same as the first number rolled:

6 outcomes: (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), (6,6)

Out of 36, thus:

[tex]p = \frac{6}{36} = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Expected value of 1 game:

1/6 probability of earning $25.

5/6 probability of losing $2.

Thus:

[tex]E = 25\frac{1}{6} - 2\frac{5}{6} = \frac{25 - 10}{6} = 2.5[/tex]

100 games:

100*2.5 = 250

You can expect to make $250.

consider the differential equation x3y ''' + 8x2y '' + 9xy ' − 9y = 0; x, x−3, x−3 ln(x), (0, [infinity]). Verify that the given functions form a fundamental set of solutions of the differential equation on the indicated interval. The functions satisfy the differential equation and are linearly independent since W(x, x−3, x−3 ln(x)) = ≠ 0 for 0 < x < [infinity].

Answers

Verifying that a given expression is a solution to the equation is just a matter of plugging in the expression and its derivatives, and making sure that the given expressions are indeed linearly independent.

For example, if y = x, then y' = 1 and the other derivatives vanish. So the DE after substitution reduces to

9x - 9x = 0

which is true for all 0 < x < ∞.

To check for linear independence, you compute the Wronskian, which, judging by what you wrote, you've already done...

A researcher is interested in whether there is a significant difference between the mean age of marriage across three racial groups. Using the data provided below, conduct an F-test to determine whether you believe there is an association between race and average age at marriage.

Race N Mean
Black 113 25.39
White 904 22.99
Other 144 23.87
All Groups 1,161 23.33

Answers

Answer:

The P-value is < significance value ( 0.05 ) hence we reject the Null hypothesis ( i.e. There is an association between the race and average age at marriage )

Step-by-step explanation:

Conducting an F-test to determine association between race and average age at marriage

step 1 : State the hypothesis

H0 : ц1 = ц2 = ц3

Ha : ц1 ≠ ц2 ≠ ц3

step 2 : determine the mean square between

Given mean value of all groups = 23.33

SS btw = 113*(25.39 - 23.33)² +  904*(22.99 - 23.33)² + 144*(23.89 - 23.33)^2            = 113(4.2436) + 904(0.1156) + 144(0.3136)

= 629.1876

hence:  df btw = 3 - 1 = 2

             df total = 1161 - 1 = 1160

              df within = 1160 - 2 = 1158

              SS within = 36.87*1158 = 42695.46

Therefore the MS between =  629.19 / 2 = 314.60

The F-ratio = 314.59 / 36.87 = 8.53

using the values for Btw the P-value = 0.00021

The P-value is < significance value ( 0.05 ) hence we reject the Null hypothesis ( i.e. There is an association between the race and average age at marriage )

The equations of choices C and D have coefficients with a common factor of 2.

Independent simple random samples are selected to test the difference between the means of two populations whose standard deviations are not known. We are unwilling to assume that the population variances are equal. The sample sizes are n1 = 25 and n2 = 35. The correct distribution to use is the:

2) t distribution with 58 degrees of freedom.
3) t distribution with 61 degrees of freedom.
4) t distribution with 60 degrees of freedom.

Answers

Answer:

2) t distribution with 58 degrees of freedom.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population standard deviations not known:

This means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The sample sizes are n1 = 25 and n2 = 35.

The number of degrees of freedom is the sum of the sample sizes subtracted by the number of samples, in this case 2. So

25 + 35 - 2 = 58 df.

Thus the correct answer is given by option 2.
