Hey there,
2 hours = 15 pages
1 hour = 15 / 2
= 7.5 pages
15 pages = $40
1 page = $40 / 15
= $2.666666666666667
7.5 pages= $2.666666666666667 x 7.5
= $20

Hope this helps :))

Ibrahim wants to give each of his six friends 1 2/3 candy bars. How many candy bars does he need to buy?

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

10 candy bars

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each of his friends needs a candy bar, you need to multiply 6 and 1 ⅔ together.

First, convert 1 ⅔ into an improper fraction: this gives us ⁵⁄₃.

Next, multiply ⁶⁄₁ and ⁵⁄₃ together. To do this, you can visualize 6 as ⁶⁄₁ (which is the same thing). Now you have ⁶⁄₁ x ⁵⁄₃.

<u>Simplify:</u>

The 6 in the numerator and the 3 in the denominator cancel out. This gives us ²⁄₁ x ⁵⁄₁ , which is 2 x 5.

2 x 5 = 10

A random sample of 28 statistics tutorials was selected from the past 5 years and the percentage of students absent from each on

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

X: number of absences per tutorial per student over the past 5 years(percentage)

X≈N(μ;σ²)

You have to construct a 90% to estimate the population mean of the percentage of absences per tutorial of the students over the past 5 years.

The formula for the CI is:

X[bar] ± $Z_{1-\alpha /2}$ * $\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }$

⇒ The population standard deviation is unknown and since the distribution is approximate, I'll use the estimation of the standard deviation in place of the population parameter.

Number of Absences 13.9 16.4 12.3 13.2 8.4 4.4 10.3 8.8 4.8 10.9 15.9 9.7 4.5 11.5 5.7 10.8 9.7 8.2 10.3 12.2 10.6 16.2 15.2 1.7 11.7 11.9 10.0 12.4

X[bar]= 10.41

S= 3.71

$Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.95}= 1.645$

[10.41±1.645* $(\frac{3.71}{\sqrt{28} } )$ ]

[9.26; 11.56]

Using a confidence level of 90% you'd expect that the interval [9.26; 11.56]% contains the value of the population mean of the percentage of absences per tutorial of the students over the past 5 years.

I hope this helps!
