The Interest on $2,000 for 2 years is $320 what is the simple interest rate?

Ronch [10]

Answer:

It would be 20

Step-by-step explanation:because you have to divide 320 by 2 which equals $160 for 1 year and then divide that by 2 again would be $80 for 6 months then divide it by 2 again which would be $40 and 3 months for it then divide it by 2 again and 1 and a half months equal $20

Solve the following quadratic equation<br>x+12x+36 - 16

Doss [256]

Answer:

x= -2, x= -10

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 12x + 36 = 16

Began by setting this quadratic equation to 0. To do this, in this equation you must subtract.

x^2+12x+20=0

Next, we plug this into the quadratic formula, where a in this case is 1(there is nothing in front of x^2), b is equaled to 12(there is a 12 as the coeefficient of 12x), and c is equaled to 20.

The quadratic formula is as goes:

(-b+-(this means plus or minus)√b^2-4ac)/(2a)

After pluggin in and simplifying, the answer is x= -2 and x= -10

Of 580580 samples of seafood purchased from various kinds of food stores in different regions of a country and genetically compa

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

a) The 99% confidence interval would be given (0.204;0.296).

b) We have 99% of confidence that the true population proportion of all seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified is between (0.204;0.296).

c) No that's not true. Because the necessary assumptions and conditions for the confidence interval for the proportion are satisifed, so then we can use inferential statistics to interpret the interval to the population of interest.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

Data given and notation

n=580 represent the random sample taken

X represent the seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified by the people

$\hat p=0.25$ estimated proportion of seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified by the people

$\alpha=0.01$ represent the significance level (no given, but is assumed)

p= population proportion of seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified by the people

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})$

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

For the 99% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ and $\alpha/2=0.005$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

$z_{\alpha/2}=2.58$

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

$0.25 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{580}}=0.204$

$0.25 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{580}}=0.296$

And the 99% confidence interval would be given (0.204;0.296).

Part b

We have 99% of confidence that the true population proportion of all seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified is between (0.204;0.296).

Part c

A government spokesperson claimed that the sample size was too small, relative to the billions of pieces of seafood sold each year, to generalize. Is this criticism valid?

No that's not true. Because the necessary assumptions and conditions for the confidence interval for the proportion are satisifed, so then we can use inferential statistics to interpret the interval to the population of interest.

How do I find the length of this?

olga55 [171]

Volume is length times width times height so you would take 10656/(24*18.5)=24 inches
