Answer:

Decrease of 4% ($4).

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the initial price was $100. An increase of 20% will make the price $120.

Now we decrease it 20% which brings it to 120 - 0.20 * 120

= 120 - 24

= $96.

So that's an overall decrease of $4 or 4%.

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The data table :

Use of SM _UK _China _ Russia _US _ col total

Yes ______480 __215 ___343 __640 _ 1678

No _______320 _ 285 ___357__ 360 _ 1322

Row Total__ 800 _500 __ 700_ 1000_ 3000

H0 : p1 = p2 = p3 = p4

H1 : p1 ≠ p2 ≠ p3 ≠ p4

Test statistic :

χ² = Σ(observed - Expected)² / Expected

Expected value of each cell = (Row total * column total) / N

N = grand total

Expected Values:

447.467 _279.667 _ 391.533 _ 559.333

352.533 _ 220.333 _ 308.467 _ 440.667

χ²=(2.36536+14.9527+6.01605+11.6337+3.00232 18.9793+7.63611+14.7665) = 79.352

Degree of freedom, df = (row-1)*(column-1) = (2 - 1) * (4 - 1) = 1 * 3 = 3

Using the Pvalue from Chisquare calculator :

Pvalue(79.352, 3) = 0.00000000001

Decision region :

Reject H0 ; If Pvalue < α

α = 0.05

Since 0.000000001 < 0.05 ; Reject H0 and conclude that not all population proportion are equal.

Sample proportion :

Phat = number of yes, x / total

For UK, Phat = 480/800 = 0.6

For China , Phat = 215/500 = 0.43

For Russia , Phat = 343/700 = 0.49

For US, Phat = 640/1000 = 0.64

How many 6 digit different locker combinations are possible if no repeat numbers are allowed?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Since we are trying to find the number of sequences can be made <em>without repetition</em>, we are going to use a combination.


The formula for combinations is:

_n C _k = \dfrac{n!}{k! (n - k)!}

  • n is the total number of elements in the set
  • k is the number of those elements you are desiring

Since there are 10 total digits, n = 10 in this scenario. Since we are choosing 6 digits of the 10 for our sequence, k = 6 in this scenario. Thus, we are trying to find _{10} C _6. This can be found as shown:

_{10} C _6 = \dfrac{10!}{6! \cdot 4!} = \dfrac{10 \cdot 9 \cdot 8 \cdot 7}{4!} = \dfrac{5040}{24} = 210


There are 210 total combinations.
