Answer:

(a). $35746. (b). Higher.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a). Given that the least-squares regression equation is y = 7163x + 14242. Also, in the question above we are given that y is the median income and x is the percentage of 25 years and older with at least a bachelor's degree in the region, that is to say that the value of x = 30.

Therefore, y = 7163x + 14242.

y = (7163 × 30) + 14242.

y = $35746.

(b). The condition for our x is; 28.7 percent of adults 25 years and older have at least a bachelor's degree.

Then, y = (7163 × 28.7) + 14242.

y = $34814.

Hence, we have the median income in this region = $38,163 HIGHER than $34814.

Charlie invests £1200 at 3.5% per annum compound interest.

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

<h2>£1,330.46</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the compound interest formula $A = P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}$

A = amount compounded after n years

P = principal (amount invested)

r = rate (in %)

t = time (in years)

n = time used to compound the money

Given P = £1200., r = 3.5%, t = 3years, n = 1 year(compounded annually)

$A = 1200(1+0.035)^{3}\\ A = 1200(1.035)^{3}\\ A = 1200* 1.108717875\\A = 1,330.46$

Value of Charlie's investment after 3 years is £1,330.46

This Venn diagram shows the pizza topping preferences for 9 students. Let event A = The student likes pepperoni. Let event B = T

victus00 [196]

Answer:

$P(A\ or\ B)=\frac{7}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the formula to calculate the probability of (A or B) where

A=Probability a student likes pepperoni

B=Probability a student likes olive

A and B =Probability a student likes both toppings in a pizza

A or B =Probability a student likes pepperoni or olive (and maybe both), a non-exclusive or

The formula is

$P(A\ or\ B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\ and\ B)$

Since 6 students like pepperoni out of 9:

$P(A) = \frac{6}{9}$

Since 4 students like olive out of 9:

$P(B) = \frac{4}{9}$

Since 3 students like both toppings out of 9

$P(A\ and\ B) = \frac{3}{9}$

Then we have

$P(A\ or\ B)=\frac{6}{9}+\frac{4}{9}-\frac{3}{9}$

$P(A\ or\ B)=\frac{7}{9}$
