$950 is the selling price of the item only.

1.04x = 988
x = 988 / 1.04
x = 950 <== selling price not including tax

check...
950(1.04) = 988
988 = 988 (correct)

so the selling price is 950 plus the sales tax of (0.04 * 950) = 38 for a total of 988

I am a rectangle, and my area is 80 square inches. My width is 2 inches shorter than my length. What is my perimeter?
pshichka [43]
Area=l*b=l*(l-2)=80(given)

so, l^2 - 2l =80
   l^2 - 2l - 80=0
   l=10 or -8

l=10,b=10-2=8
perimeter=2(l+b)=2(18)=36

You have drawn a simple random sample of 36 college students, asking each student how much rent they pay per month. You obtain a
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

573-1.690\frac{22}{\sqrt{36}}=566.8033    

573+1.690\frac{22}{\sqrt{36}}=579.1967      

And the 90% confidence interval would be between [566.80 and 579.20]

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

\bar X=573 represent the sample mean

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s=22 represent the sample standard deviation

n=36 represent the sample size  

Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=36-1=35

The Confidence level is 0.90 or 90%, the significance would be \alpha=0.1 and \alpha/2 =0.05, and the critical value for this case would be t_{\alpha/2}=1.690

And replacing we got:

573-1.690\frac{22}{\sqrt{36}}=566.8033    

573+1.690\frac{22}{\sqrt{36}}=579.1967    

And the 90% confidence interval would be between [566.8033 and 579.1967]
