<h3>Given:</h3>

The cost of the rope is $3.82 per foot,
The length of the rope is 9.3 feet.

<h3>Money spent is:</h3>

$3.82 * 9.3 = $35.526 ≈ $35.53 (rounded)

The total amount the carpenter will spend if the rope costs $3.82 per foot is $35.526

<h3>How to determine how much will the carpenter spend if the rope costs $3.82 per foot?</h3>

The length of rope is given as:

Length = 9.3 feet

The price per rope is given as:

Price per rope = $3.82 per foot

The total amount spent by the carpenter is calculated as:

Total amount = Length * Price per rope

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Total amount = 9.3 feet * $3.82 per foot

Evaluate the product

Total amount = $35.526

Hence, the total amount the carpenter will spend if the rope costs $3.82 per foot is $35.526

bezimeni [28]

For there to be 1 car, we consider two possible outcomes:

The first door opened has a car or the second door opened has a car.

P(1 car) = 2/6 x 4/5 + 4/6 x 2/5

P(1 car) = 8/15

For there to be no car in either door

P(no car) = 4/6 x 3/5

P(no car) = 2/5

Probability of at least one car is the sum of the probability of one car and probability of two cars:

P(2 cars) = 2/6 x 1/5

= 1/15

P(1 car) + P(2 cars) = 8/15 + 1/15

= 3/5

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.

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

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

$M = 0.012$

What is the annual interest rate is 1=$160.67, p=$2000, t=8 months

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Please use " i " to denote "interest."

the formula for simple interest is i = p r t.

Here, i = $160.67 = $2000 (r) (8/12)

Solving for the interest rate, r = ($169.67)(12/8)/ $2000 = 0.127, or 12.7%
