Percentage of depreciation of the car that Marie bought = 15%
Present value of the car = 13000
Let us assume that the value of the car at the time of buying = x
So
The percentage valuation of the car now = (100 - 15) percent
                                                                 = 85 percent
Then
(85/100) * x = 13000
85x = 13000 * 100
85x = 1300000
x = 1300000/85
  = 15294.12
So the actual cost of the car is 15294.12. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

1. (5pt) In a recent New York City marathon, 25,221 men finished and 253 dropped out. Also,
gladu [14]

Answer:

(a) Explained below.

(b) The 99% confidence interval for the difference between proportions is (-0.00094, 0.00494).

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is:

n (Men who finished the marathon) = 25,221

n (Women who finished the marathon) = 12,883

Compute the proportion of men and women who finished the marathon as follows:

\hat p_{1}=\frac{25221}{25221 +253}=0.99\\\\\hat p_{2}=\frac{12883 }{12883+163}=0.988

The combined proportion is:

\hat P=\frac{X_{1}+X_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}\\\\=\frac{25221+12883}{38520}\\\\=0.989

(a)

The hypothesis is:

<em>H</em>₀: The rate of those who finish the marathon is the same for men and women, i.e. <em>p</em>₁ - <em>p</em>₂ = 0.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The rate of those who finish the marathon is not same for men and women, i.e. <em>p</em>₁ - <em>p</em>₂ ≠ 0.

Compute the test statistic as follows:

Z=\frac{\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2}}{\sqrt{\hat P(1-\hat P)\cdot [\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}}]}}

   =\frac{0.99-0.988}{\sqrt{0.989(1-0.989)\times[\frac{1}{25474}+\frac{1}{13046}]}}\\\\=1.78

Compute the <em>p</em>-value as follows:

p-value=2\times P(Z>1.78)\\\\=2\times 0.03754\\\\=0.07508\\\\\approx 0.075

The <em>p</em>-value of the test is more than the significance level. The null hypothesis was failed to be rejected.

Thus, concluding that the rate of those who finish is the same for men and women.

(b)

Compute the 99% confidence interval for the difference between proportions as follows:

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 99% confidence level is 2.58.

CI=(\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2})\pm z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_{1}(1-\hat p_{1})}{n_{1}}+\frac{\hat p_{2}(1-\hat p_{2})}{n_{2}}}

     =(0.99-0.988)\pm 2.58\times\sqrt{\frac{0.99(1-0.99)}{25474}+\frac{0.988(1-0.988)}{13046}}\\\\=0.002\pm 0.00294\\\\=(-0.00094, 0.00494)\\\\

Thu, the 99% confidence interval for the difference between proportions is (-0.00094, 0.00494).

Determine the slope and the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation y= -7/3×+3 slope: 7/9 ;y-intercept: 3 slope: 9/7
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

slope ⟹ \:  -  \frac{7}{9}  \\ y  \:  intercept⟹ \: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of this equation is

y = mx + c \\

m stands for the gradient or the slope, and c represents the y-intercept

y = mx + c \\ y =  -  \frac{7}{9} x + 3 \\ m =  -  \frac{7}{9}  \:  \\ and \:   \\  \: y \: intercept \:  = 3
