If Erica earned a total of $15450 last year from both the jobs then he earns $2840 from college if she earned 1250 more than four times the amount from college from store.

Given Total amount earned=$15450,Amount earned from store is 1250 more than 4 times earned from college.

Amount from store forms an equation.

let the amount earned from college is x.

According to question:

Amount earned from store=4x+1250

Amount earned from college=x

Total amount earned=4x+1250+x

5x+1250=15450

5x=15450-1250

5x=14200

x=14200/5

x=2840

Put the value of x in 4x+1250 to get amount earned from store=4(2840)+1250=$12610.

Hence the amount earned by Erica from college is $2840.

An automobile manufacturer would like to know what proportion of its customers are not satisfied with the service provided by th

butalik [34]

Answer:

a) A sample size of 5615 is needed.

b) 0.012

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

99.5% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.005$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.005}{2} = 0.9975$ , so $Z = 2.81$ .

(a) Past studies suggest that this proportion will be about 0.2. Find the sample size needed if the margin of the error of the confidence interval is to be about 0.015.

This is n for which M = 0.015.

We have that $\pi = 0.2$

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.015 = 2.81\sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{n}}$

$0.015\sqrt{n} = 2.81\sqrt{0.2*0.8}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.81\sqrt{0.2*0.8}}{0.015}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{2.81\sqrt{0.2*0.8}}{0.015})^{2}$

$n = 5615$

A sample size of 5615 is needed.

(b) Using the sample size above, when the sample is actually contacted, 12% of the sample say they are not satisfied. What is the margin of the error of the confidence interval?

Now $\pi = 0.12, n = 5615$ .

We have to find M.

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$M = 2.81\sqrt{\frac{0.12*0.88}{5615}}$

$M = 0.012$

Explain the purpose of statements and reasons in a formal proof.

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statements simply state the theorem that is to be proofed. Formal proof in logical sequence connects the hypotheses to the conclusion reached.

Statements and reasons are important because they help to breakdown a theorem, showing in steps and stages how a conclusion was reached. They provide facts that convince the observer that the theorem is indeed true.

Two cars leave Phoenix and travel along roads 90 degrees apart. If Car 1 leaves 30 minutes earlier than Car 2 and averages 42 mp

romanna [79]

Answer:

C. 210 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that two cars leave Phoenix and travel along roads 90 degrees apart. Car 1 leaves 30 minutes earlier than Car 2 and averages 42 mph.

We will use distance formula and Pythagoras theorem to solve our given problem.

$\text{Distance}=\text{Speed}\times \text{Time}$

$\text{Distance covered by Car 1 in 3.5 hours}=\frac{42\text{ Miles}}{\text{Hour}}\times \text{3.5 hour}$

$\text{Distance covered by Car 1 in 3.5 hours}=147\text{ Miles}$ .

Since car 1 leaves 30 minutes before car 2, so car 2 will travel for only 3 hours when car 1 will travel for 3.5 hours.

$\text{Distance covered by Car 2 in 3 hours}=\frac{50\text{ Miles}}{\text{Hour}}\times \text{3 hour}$

$\text{Distance covered by Car 2 in 3 hours}=150\text{ Miles}$

Since both car travel along roads 90 degree apart, therefore, the distance between both cars after Car 1 has traveled 3.5 hours would be hypotenuse with legs 147 and 150.

$\text{Distance between both cars}=\sqrt{147^2+150^2}$

$\text{Distance between both cars}=\sqrt{21609+22500}$

$\text{Distance between both cars}=\sqrt{44109}$

$\text{Distance between both cars}=210.021427\approx 210$

Therefore, the both cars will be 210 miles apart and option C is the correct choice.
