Let w = number of weeks.

In week w,
Laura has: 720 + 30w
Taylor has: 1200 - 30w

Set the two amounts equal and solve for w, the number of weeks.

720 + 30w = 1200 - 30w

60w = 480

w = 8

They will have the same amount of money in 8 weeks.

Laura will have in 8 weeks:
720 + 30w = 720 + 30 * 8 = 720 + 240 = 960

Taylor will have in 8 weeks:
1200 - 30w = 1200 - 30 * 8 = 1200 - 240 = 960

They will both have $960 in 8 weeks.

A random sample of 18 adults, chosen from the 1500 adults in the town, took a survey asking their opinion on a recent property t

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

C) I & III

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sample size, n = 18

Sample proportion = 25% = 0.25

Here, a random sample of 18 adults were chosen from the 1500 adults in town. This shows that the random condition was satisfied because the sample was drawn randomly from the general population of adults in the town.

For the normal condition to be satisfied, np should be greater than 10, ie np > 10.

In this case, np = 18 * 0.25 = 4.5

Since np is less than 10, the normal condition was not satisfied.

For the 10% condition to be satisfied, sample size should not be more than 10% of the general population.

Here, the sample size is 18 and the population is 1500. Therefore,

$\frac{18}{1500} * 100 = 1.2$

Since the sample size is 1.2% of the population which is less than 10%, the 10% condition was satisfied.

The correct option is C, because only I & III were satisfied.
