Answer:

-12.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the percent decrease, we:

  1. Find the difference between the new value and the original
  2. Divide the number by the original
  3. Multiply by 100 and the % symbol.

The population of the town originally had 25,000. 3,200 people moved away. This means that the new population is 21,800.

  1. 21,800-25,000=-3,200
  2. -3,200/25,000=-0.128
  3. -0.128(100)=-12.8%

The towns population decreased by 12.8%.

What is the slope of the line that contains the points (-1,2) and (3,3)
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the points (-1,2) and (3,3) and we need to find the slope.

The formula for slope calculated from two points is \frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}, where (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}) are points

since we have two points, we can substitute them into the formula, but let's label their values to avoid any confusion

x_{1}=-1

y_{1}=2

x_{2}=3

y_{2}=3

now substitute into the formula (m is the slope); remember: we have a negative number in this, so we'll be subtracting a negative.

m=\frac{3-2}{3--1}

simplify

m=\frac{3-2}{3+1}

m=\frac{1}{4}

so <u>B </u>is your answer

Hope this helps! :)

A laboratory tested 85 chicken eggs and found that the mean amount of cholesterol was 190 milligrams. Assume that the sample sta
Serjik [45]

Answer:   (182.356,\ 197.644)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Significance level : \alpha:1-0.95=0.05

Sample size : n=85

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

Sample mean : \overline{x}=190

Standard deviation : \sigma=11.7

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=190\pm(1.96)\dfrac{11.7}{\sqrt{9}}\\\\=190\pm7.644\\\\=(190-7.644,\ 190+7.644)=(182.356,\ 197.644)

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the true mean cholesterol content, μ, of all such eggs = (182.356,\ 197.644)

Hence, we conclude that the true population mean of amount of cholesterol lies between 182.356 and 197.644.
