Hi there, the complete question is - <span>You wish to mentally estimate the total cost of items that have the following prices: $1.85, $.98, $3.49, $9.78, and $6.18. Rounding off the items to the nearest half dollar, your estimate of the total cost of these items is? 

Add and estimate 

</span> 2+1+3.5+10+6, so our estimate is $22.50.

The director of the library calculates that 29% of the library's collection is checked out. If the director is right, what is th
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The probability that the proportion of books checked out in a sample of 412 books would differ from the population proportion by less than 4% is P=0.9255.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population's proportion is \pi=0.29

If we take a sample of 412 books (n=412), we have a standard deviation of the sampling distribution of:

\sigma_M=\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.29*0.71}{412}}=\sqrt{0.0005} =0.0224

We have to calculate the probabilty that the sample proportion will be between 0.25 and 0.33.

z_1=(0.25-0.29)/0.0224=-0.04/0.0224=-1.7857\\\\z_2=1.7857\\\\\\P(0.25

You're pretty sure that your candidate for class president has about 55% of the votes in the entire school. but you're worried t
Pavlova-9 [17]
Part A:

A component is one voter's vote. An outcome is a vote in favour of our candidate.
Since there are 100 voters, we can stimulate the component by using two randon digits from 00 - 99, where the digits 00 - 54 represents a vote for our candidate and the digits 55 - 99 represents a vote for the underdog.



Part B:

A trial is 100 votes. We can stimulate the trial by randomly picking 100 two-digits numbers from 00 - 99. Whoever gets the majority of the votes wins the trial.



Part C:

The response variable is whether the underdog wants to win or not. To calculate the experimental probability, divide the number of trials in which the simulated underdog wins by the total number of trials.

The length of a rectangle is 4 yd more than twice the width x. The area is 390
masya89 [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. let l be the length of the rectangle

step 2. l = 2x + 4

step 3. lx = 390 yd^2

step 4. (2x + 4)x = 390

step 5. 2x^2 +4x = 390

step 6. 2x^2 + 4x - 390 = 0

step 7. -4 +- sqr(4^2 -4(2)(-390))/2(2) quadratic formula

step 8. (-4 +- sqr(3136))/4

step 9. (-4 +- 56)/4

step 10. x = 13yd, l = 2x + 4 = 2(13) + 4 = 30yd.
