1 answer:

8 0

The marked price of the wrist watch after the trader sold a wrist watch for $3150 after giving a 10% discount is $3500.

First, let us understand the percentage:

A percentage is a fraction of a whole expressed as a number between 0 and 100. Nothing is zero percent, everything is 100 percent, half of everything is fifty percent, and nothing is zero percent.

To determine a percentage, we need to divide the portion of the whole by the whole itself and multiply by 100.

Let the marked price be x.

So,

According to the question;

x - x * 10% = 3150

x - x * 10/100 = 3150

100x - 10x / 100 = 3150

90x = 3150 * 100

x = 3150 * 100 / 90

x = 3500

So, the marked price is $3500.

Thus, the marked price of the wrist watch after the trader sold a wrist watch for $3150 after giving a 10% discount is $3500.

The U.S. Dairy Industry wants to estimate the mean yearly milk consumption. A sample of 21 people reveals the mean yearly consum

PIT_PIT [208]

Correct question is;

The U.S. Dairy Industry wants to estimate the mean yearly milk consumption. A sample of 21 people reveals the mean yearly consumption to be 74 gallons with a standard deviation of 16 gallons.

a. What is the value of the population mean? What is the best estimate of this value?

b. Explain why we need to use the t distribution. What assumption do you need to make?

c. For a 90 percent confidence interval, what is the value of t?

d. Develop the 90 percent confidence interval for the population mean.

e. Would it be reasonable to conclude that the population mean is 68 gallons?

Answer:

A) Best estimate = 74 gallons

B) because the population standard deviation is unknown. The assumption we will make is that the population follows the normal distribution.

C) t = 1.725

D) 90% confidence interval for the population mean is (67.9772, 80.0228) gallons

E) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Sample mean; x' = 74

Sample population; n = 21

Yearly Standard deviation; s = 16

A) We are not given the population mean.

So the closest estimate to the population mean would be the sample mean which is 74.

B) We are not given the population standard deviation and as such we can't use normal distribution. So what is used when population standard deviation is not known is called t - distribution table. The assumption we will make is that the population follows the normal distribution.

C) At confidence interval of 90% and DF = n - 1 = 21 - 1 = 20

From t-tables, the t = 1.725

D) Formula for the confidence interval is;

x' ± t(s/√n) = 74 ± 1.725(16/√21) = 74 ± 6.0228 = 67.9772 or 80.0228

Thus 90% confidence interval for the population mean is (67.9772, 80.0228) gallons

E) 68 gallons lies within the range of the confidence interval, thus we can say that "Yes, it is reasonable"

What is the area of the figure shown?

musickatia [10]

Check the picture below.

now, we're making an assumption that, the two blue shaded region are equal in shape, and thus if that's so, that area above the 14 is 6 and below it is also 6, 14 + 6 + 6 = 26.

so hmm if we simply get the area of the trapezoid and subtract the area of the yellow triangle and the area of the cyan triangle, what's leftover is what we didn't subtract, namely the shaded region.

$\textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\ A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~ \begin{cases} h~~=height\\ a,b=\stackrel{parallel~sides}{bases~\hfill }\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ h=15\\ a=14\\ b=26 \end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{15(14+26)}{2}\implies A=300 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{\Large Areas}}{\stackrel{trapezoid}{300}~~ - ~~\stackrel{yellow~triangle}{\cfrac{1}{2}(26)(9)}~~ - ~~\stackrel{cyan~triangle}{\cfrac{1}{2}(15)(6)}} \\\\\\ 300~~ - ~~117~~ - ~~45\implies 138\qquad \textit{blue shaded area}$

The sample space of a random experiment is {a, b, c, d, e} with probabilities 0.1, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.2 respectively. Let A de

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

a) $P(A) =P(a)+P(b) +P(c)= 0.1+0.1+0.2 = 0.4$

b) $P(B) =P(c) +P(d)+P(e)=0.2+0.4+0.2=0.8$

c) $P(A') = 1-P(A) =1-0.4=0.6$

d) $P(A \cup B) =0.4 +0.8-0.2 =1.0$

e) The intersection between the set A and B is the element c so then we have this:

$P(A \cap B) = P(c) =0.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following space provided:

$S= [a,b,c,d,e]$

With the following probabilities:

$P(a) =0.1, P(b)=0.1, P(c) =0.2, P(d)=0.4, P(e)=0.2$

And we define the following events:

A= [a,b,c], B=[c,d,e]

For this case we can find the individual probabilities for A and B like this:

$P(A) = 0.1+0.1+0.2 = 0.4$

$P(B) =0.2+0.4+0.2=0.8$

Determine:

a. P(A)

$P(A) =P(a)+P(b) +P(c)= 0.1+0.1+0.2 = 0.4$

b. P(B)

$P(B) =P(c) +P(d)+P(e)=0.2+0.4+0.2=0.8$

c. P(A’)

From definition of complement we have this:

$P(A') = 1-P(A) =1-0.4=0.6$

d. P(AUB)

Using the total law of probability we got:

$P(A \cup B) =P(A) +P(B)-P(A \cap B)$

For this case $P(A \cap B) = P(c) =0.2$ , so if we replace we got:

$P(A \cup B) =0.4 +0.8-0.2 =1.0$

e. P(AnB)

The intersection between the set A and B is the element c so then we have this:

$P(A \cap B) = P(c) =0.2$

uysha [10]

Answer:

(a) 0.2824

(b) 0.0002441

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the population is large enough to behave as a binomial distribution (between whites and non-whites), the probability of 12 out of 12 juros being white is:

$P(w=12) = p(w)^{12}$

Where p(w) is the proportion of the population that is white:

(a) for p = 0.90

$P(w=12) = 0.90^{12}\\P(w=12) =0.2824$

The probability is 0.2824.

(b) for p = 0.50

$P(w=12) = 0.50^{12}\\P(w=12) =0.0002441$

The probability is 0.0002441.
