Do a proportion
60/100= x/54
Cross multiply and divide
54 x 60= 3,240
3,240 divided by 100 is 32.4
Now subtract
54- 32.4= 21.6
Answer is $21.6
The value of a=7 will make the equation true
To answer this you could do a couple things. 1. Actually calculate both tips and then subtract them. Here is the math ( assuming it is $60, not 60% that you mean). a. 0.15 x 60 = $9. b. 0.0825 x 2 x 60=$9.90. c. 9.90-9.00= $0.90 difference.
The other strategy would be to find the difference on the percents and then multiply by $60. a. 8.25%x2=16.5%-15%. Difference of 1.5%. b. 0.015 x $60=$0.90.
Answer: (0.8468, 0.8764)
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula to find the confidence interval for population proportion is given by :-

, where
= sample proportion.
z* = Critical value
n= Sample size.
Let p be the true proportion of GSU Juniors who believe that they will, immediately, be employed after graduation.
Given : Sample size = 3597
Number of students believe that they will find a job immediately after graduation= 3099
Then, 
We know that , Critical value for 99% confidence interval = z*=2.576 (By z-table)
The 99 % confidence interval for the proportion of GSU Juniors who believe that they will, immediately, be employed after graduation will be


Hence, the 99 % confidence interval for the proportion of GSU Juniors who believe that they will, immediately, be employed after graduation. = (0.8468, 0.8764)
