Answer:

  $319

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, sales tax is proportional to the amount of the sale, so if the sales tax is a factor of 22/16 times the original tax, then the sale amount must be 22/16 times the original item cost:

  (22/16)·$232 = $319

20000 students took a standardized math test. The scores on the test are normally distributed, with a mean score of 85 and a sta
Tpy6a [65]

Answer: 2718

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean score = 85

Standard deviation = 5

Let x be the score of a random student that follows normal distribution.

Then, the probability that a student scored between 90 and 95 will be

P(90< x < 95)\\\\=P(\dfrac{90-85}{5}

The number of students scored between 90 and 95 = 0.1359 x (Total students)

= 0.1359 (20000)

= 2718

Hence, The number of students scored between 90 and 95 = 2718

How many different ways are there to choose a subset of the set {1,2,3,4,5,6} so that the product of the members of the subset i
zvonat [6]

You have to pick at least one even factor from the set to make an even product.

There are 3 even numbers to choose from, and we can pick up to 3 additional odd numbers.

For example, if we pick out 1 even number and 2 odd numbers, this can be done in

\dbinom 31 \dbinom 32 = 3\cdot3 = 9

ways. If we pick out 3 even numbers and 0 odd numbers, this can be done in

\dbinom 33 \dbinom 30 = 1\cdot1 = 1

way.

The total count is then the sum of all possible selections with at least 1 even number and between 0 and 3 odd numbers.

\displaystyle \sum_{e=1}^3 \binom 3e \sum_{o=0}^3 \binom 3o = 2^3 \sum_{e=1}^3 \binom3e = 8 \left(\sum_{e=0}^3 \binom3e - \binom30\right) = 8(2^3 - 1) = \boxed{56}

where we use the binomial identity

\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^n \binom nk = \sum_{k=0}^n \binom nk 1^{n-k} 1^k = (1+1)^n = 2^n
