To solve the question we use the compound interest formula which is given by:
A=p(1+r)^(nt)
where:
A=future value
p=principle
r=rate
n=number of terms
t=time
thus plugging in the values in the formula we shall have:
A=835(1+0.04)^(4t)
simplifying this we get the sequence:
A=835(1.040)^(4t)
Thus the answer to the sequence will be:
A=835(1.040)^(4t)
The answer is 1.
Thank you for waiting!
Answer:
The correct answer is:
(a) 0.54
(b) 0.0385
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Restaurant tax,
p = 0.54
Sample size,
n = 168
Now,
(a)
The mean will be:
⇒ μ 

(b)
The standard error will be:
= ![\sqrt{[\frac{p(1-p)}{n} ]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7B%5B%5Cfrac%7Bp%281-p%29%7D%7Bn%7D%20%5D%7D)
= ![\sqrt{[\frac{(0.54\times 0.46)}{168} ]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7B%5B%5Cfrac%7B%280.54%5Ctimes%200.46%29%7D%7B168%7D%20%5D%7D)
= ![\sqrt{[\frac{(0.2484)}{168} ]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7B%5B%5Cfrac%7B%280.2484%29%7D%7B168%7D%20%5D%7D)
= 
The answer to 8a. is 17, the answer to 8b. is 3.9, the answer to 8c. is 1 / 2, the answer to 8d. is 7 7 / 8, the answer to 9a. is commutative property, the answer to 9b. is multiplicative identity property, the answer to 9c. is associative property, and the answer to 9d. is additive inverse property.
Regarding the whole "explain using mental math" thing, I pretty much just used the fact that 8a. and 8b. both had the same number of decimal places. For 8c., I just made each number have a denominator of 10. And last, for 8d., all of the denominators were already the same, which made it pretty easy. I apologize for this section of my answer being so informal lol, I haven't had to do these kinds of problems in like 5 years <span />
Hello! So, the toy company makes blocks that cost $5 to make. Then, they mark it up by 300%, which is marking the price up by 4. 100% markup is doubling the price, 200% is tripling the price, and 300% marks the price up by 4. Then, the blocks would cost $20. After that, the price would be marked up by 150%, so that’s 2.5 times the price of the original. When you do $20 by 2.5, then the blocks cost $50. The local toy store will mark the block up by 200%, which as said before, is tripling the price. Then, you do 50 * 3, and then the price of the blocks is $150. Then, it gets marked off by 30% and 10% of 150 is 15, so 30% off 150 is 45. When you do 150 - 45, the difference is $105. Then, you take off an additional 15%, But you would still have to pay 85% of the original price. You would do 105 * 0.85, and then you would get $89.25 for the blocks. But that’s not all. You have to pay 8% sales tax for the blocks. You can find the tax by doing 89.25 * 0.08 and then adding the prices together. Or, you can do 89.25 * 1.08 to find the total price. Either way, the product should be 96.39. The total price you paid for the blocks is $96.39.
