Answer:

The student added the discount instead of subtracting the discount.

They also did not calculate the tax correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price is 499

Discount = original price * percent off

Discount = 499 * .18

               =89.82

The sale price = original price minus the discount

sale price = 499-89.82

sale price = 409.18

Sales tax = sale price * tax rate

                = 409.18 * 8.875%

                =409.18*.08875

                 =36.314725

Rounding to the nearest cent

                     36.31

Final cost = sale price + sales tax

                  =409.18+36.31

                   445.49

The student added the discount instead of subtracting the discount.

They also did not calculate the tax correctly.

Using a t-distribution calculator, the p-value is of 0.052, hence the range that contains the p-value is an interval between a number less than 0.05 and a number greater than 0.05.

<h3>How to find the p-value of the t-distribution?</h3>

To find the p-value of the t-distribution, three information, which are the inputs on the calculator are needed:

  • The test statistic.
  • The number of degrees of freedom.
  • The tail of the test.

In this problem, we have that:

  • The test statistic is of t = -1.788.
  • The number of degrees of freedom is of 10.
  • We are testing if the mean is less than a value, hence we have a left-tailed test.

Hence, using a calculator, it is found that the p-value is of 0.052, hence the range that contains the p-value is an interval between a number less than 0.05 and a number greater than 0.05.
