A) 20 households are randomly selected from the town; 8 own a dog

why: when conducting a survey to determine approximations in a population, it’s best to eliminate any and all biases for best results. Households who live near a park or have their own front yards will skew results as the rest of the population may not have access to those things, thus are more likely to not have a dog.

b) 8/20= 0.40
600*0.40= 240

Which score indicates the highest relative position? I. A score of 2.6 on a test with X = 5.0 and s = 1.6 II. A score of 650 on

Zanzabum

Answer:

A score of 2.6 on a test with $\bar X$ = 5.0 and s = 1.6 and A score of 48 on a test with $\bar X$ = 57 and s = 6 indicate the highest relative position.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following:

I. A score of 2.6 on a test with $\bar X$ = 5.0 and s = 1.6

II. A score of 650 on a test with $\bar X$ = 800 and s = 200

III. A score of 48 on a test with $\bar X$ = 57 and s = 6

And we have to find that which score indicates the highest relative position.

For finding in which score indicates the highest relative position, we will find the z score for each of the score on a test because the higher the z score, it indicates the highest relative position.

The z-score probability distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{X-\bar X}{s}$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = mean score

s = standard deviation

X = each score on a test

The z-score of First condition is calculated as;

Since we are given that a score of 2.6 on a test with $\bar X$ = 5.0 and s = 1.6,

So, z-score = $\frac{2.6-5}{1.6}$ = -1.5 {where $\bar X = 5.0$ and s = 1.6 }

The z-score of Second condition is calculated as;

Since we are given that a score of 650 on a test with $\bar X$ = 800 and s = 200,

So, z-score = $\frac{650-800}{200}$ = -0.75 {where $\bar X = 800$ and s = 200 }

The z-score of Third condition is calculated as;

Since we are given that a score of 48 on a test with $\bar X$ = 57 and s = 6,

So, z-score = $\frac{48-57}{6}$ = -1.5 {where $\bar X = 57$ and s = 6 }

AS we can clearly see that the z score of First and third condition are equally likely higher as compared to Second condition so it can be stated that A score of 2.6 on a test with $\bar X$ = 5.0 and s = 1.6 and A score of 48 on a test with $\bar X$ = 57 and s = 6 indicate the highest relative position.

Suppose a bank charges a base rate of $5 plus $0.10 per check for your checking account. You can switch to a different account t

wolverine [178]

Answer:

10 number of checks.

Cost = $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Fixed Charges of first bank = $5

Charges of first bank per check = $0.10

Fixed Charges of second bank = $4

Charges of second bank per check = $0.20

To find:

Number of checks such that the charges for the banks become the same?

Solution:

Let the number of checks = $x$

Cost for the first bank for $x$ checks = $5 + $0.10 $x$

Cost for the second bank for $x$ checks = $4 + $0.20 $x$

As per question statement, both the costs are the same.

Comparing the values:

$5 + 0.10x = 4 + 0.20x\\\Rightarrow 0.10x = 1\\\Rightarrow x = 10$

So, for 10 number of checks the cost will be same.

The cost = 4 + 0.20 $\times$ 10 = $6

Aisha is going to ship some gifts to family members, and she is considering two shipping companies. The first shipping company c

olasank [31]

Answer Step-by-step explanation:

Word (story) problems are easy if you use a table to translate the words to precise, concise math variables and operations. For example,

Is means =

Larger than +

Four times a 4*a

F is 550 less than S F = S – 550

Total of A, B, C A + B + C

This seems obvious – until you get stuck on a word problem. So,

“the first company” , “a second company” becomes Let their costs be F and S

Let K be the number of kilograms

“$20 to ship a medium box, plus an additional $2 per kilogram” F = $20 + 2*K

“10 for the same size of box, plus an additional $3 per kilogram” S = $10 + 3*K

“the two shipping methods will cost the same amount” F = S

“What is that weight?” report K

Now, the math:

F = S

20 + 2K = 10 + 3K

$10 = K
