The amount he had to pay if he have to purchase a laptop today that is the same value as the one he saw in the ad is $ 390.24.

Given that:-

Price of the laptop after 1 year = $ 400.

Inflation rate = 2.5 %

We have to find the amount he had to pay if he have to purchase a laptop today that is the same value as the one he saw in the ad.

Let the price he had to pay be x.

Hence, we can write,

x + (x*(2.5)*1)/100 = 400

x(1 + 1/40) = 400

x(41/40) = 400

x = 400*40/41 = $ 16000/41 = $ 390.24.

My first answer.  Lots of parts for five minutes. Took me that long to decode the question.  It looks like your multiplying where you're taking roots.


(\sqrt[4]{7})^5 = (7^{\frac 1 4})^5 = 7^{\frac 5 4}


<span>Choice A.  Next

(3^{2/3})^{1/6} = 3^{ \frac 2 3 \times \frac 1 6 } = 3^{\frac 1 9} = \sqrt[9]{ 3} &#10;&#10;&#10;

Choice B. 

\dfrac {2^{3/4} } {2 ^{1/2} }  = 2^{3/4 - 1/2} = 2^{1/4} = \sqrt[4] {2}&#10;


Choice C

250 students out of 3,000 have found that math is their favorite subject among 10 subjects they are studying. If the choice of f
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

The randomization distribution is created under the assumption that H₀: p = 0.1

The randomization distribution will also be centred at 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

If the distribution was truly random, 1 out of 10 students will choose math as his/her favorite subject.

This means that the randomization will have the null hypothesis saying that the proportion of students who will choose maths as their favourite subject = 0.1

Mathematically, it'll be written as

The null hypothesis is given as

H₀: p = 0.1

And the randomization distribution will be centred at 0.1 too.

The alternative hypothesis will now prove the theory they're looking to see in the question that

Hₐ: p < 0.1

Hope this Helps!!!
