The work and answer provided are correct, the simpler way of doing it is

1)
1/6 page written in 1/12 of a minute
to write a full page, you would need to write 1/6, 6 times
so,
\frac{1}{6} \time 6 = 1
and
\frac{1}{12} \times 6 = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2}

so it takes 1/2 of a minute to write a full page, there are 60 seconds in a minute, 1/2 of 60 seconds is 30 seconds

same process works for question 2(use 3 instead of 6 though)

A random sample of 70 printers discovered that 25 of them were being used in small businesses. find the 95% limit for the popula
kvasek [131]

Answer:

The sample proportion of printers used in small business is:

\hat{p}=\frac{25}{70}=0.3571

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of printers that are used in small businesses is:

\hat{p} \pm z_{\frac{0.05}{2}} \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n} }

Where:

z_{\frac{0.05}{2}}=1.96 is the critical value at 0.05 significance level

\therefore 0.3571 \pm 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.3571(1-0.3571)}{70} }

         0.3571 \pm 0.1122

         \left ( 0.3571 - 0.1122, 0.3571 + 0.1122 \right)

         \left(0.245,0.469 \right)

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of printers that are used in small businesses is (0.245 , 0.469)

A grandmother says her grandson is two years older years older than her ganddaughter and that together , they are at least 12 ye
suter [353]
 let x represent granddaughter and x +2 for grandson and together they = 12
 so then we have the equation of x+2+x = 12
 combine like terms 2x +2 =12
-2 from both sides to isolate x
2x=10  divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself 
so we get x = 5 then add 2 +5=7 
so grandson is 7 and granddaughter is 5
