It is cheeper to buy 127g of cookies for 7.03$. If you divide the cookie price by the G(cookies) you can see what price is higher.

Remark
This is an important question for anyone that shops especially now when inflation is on the rise. The stores in general price things so that big is better, but it isn't always so.

General Formula
You want your units to be in dollars / gram

Cost in dollars / gram = dollars divided by grams.

A
5.67 / 98 = 0.05786

B
7.03 / 127 = 0.0553 dollars per gram.

In this case bigger is better. You pay less for each gram you buy. That's how you know. Less is good.

Hello everyone!

Ivan

After 1 year it is worth 108% of its original value
108% = 1.08
so 1.08 x 1000 = $1080

After 2nd year it is worth 92% of that $1080
92% = 0.92
so 0.92 x 1080 = $993.60

Brewed decaffeinated coffee contains some caffeine. We want to estimate the amount of caffeine in 8 ounce cups of decaf coffee a

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

We would have to take a sample of 62 to achieve this result.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence level of 95%.

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.025 = 0.975$ , so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Assume that the standard deviation in the amount of caffeine in 8 ounces of decaf coffee is known to be 2 mg.

This means that $\sigma = 2$

If we wanted to estimate the true mean amount of caffeine in 8 ounce cups of decaf coffee to within /- 0.5 mg, how large a sample would we have to take to achieve this result?

We would need a sample of n.

n is found when $M = 0.5$ . So
