Answer:

Both tanks

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a unit conversion problem. We need to know how many gallons are there in 40 pints and with this information we will know in which tank he will need to fill in the bottles. In order to solve it we need the equivalence between this two measurement units. Which is:

1gallon=8pints

This equivalence can be used as a conversion factor like this:

\frac{1gallon}{8pints}

Applying it to the problem we can convert from pints to gallons:40pints*\frac{1gallon}{8pints}=5gallons

He will need both tanks because neither of them has enough gallons to fill 40 one pint bottles.

One gallon is equal to 8 pints only filling 8 bottles per gallon so if you do 8×2 you can only fill 16 bottles so thats not enough and when you do 8×3=24 its still not enough to fill all 40 bottles so he would need both tanks to fill all 40 bottles 8×5=40

The proportion of junior executives leaving large manufacturing companies within three years is to be estimated within 3 percent
Leona [35]

Answer: 709

Step-by-step explanation:

The formulas we use to find the required sample size :-

1. n=(\dfrac{z^*\cdot \sigma}{E})^2

, where \sigma = population standard deviation,

E = Margin of error .

z* = Critical value

2. n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2 , where p= prior estimate of population proportion.

3. If prior estimate of population proportion is unavailable , then we take p= 0.5 and the formula becomes

n=0.25(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2

Given : Margin of error : E= 3% =0.03

Critical value for 95% confidence interval = z*= 1.96

A study conducted several years ago revealed that the percent of junior executives leaving within three years was 21%.

i.e. p=0.21

Then by formula 2., the required sample size will be :

n=0.21(1-0.21)(\dfrac{1.96}{0.03})^2

n=0.21(0.79)(65.3333)^2

n=(0.1659)(4268.44008889)\\\\ n=708.134933333\approx709 [Round to the next integer.]

Hence, the required sample size of junior executives should be studied = 709

Kali spent half of her weekly allowance on clothes. To earn more money her parents let her clean the gutters for $9. What is her
Ber [7]
So to find the answer to this, you have to consider that \frac{1}{2} x + 9 = 13 - half because half the pocket money (x) was spend on clothes, then plus 9 because that's how much extra she gained and 13 because that was the result of all the changes.

To solve this, first subtract 9 from both side, which leaves you with \frac{1}{2} x = 4 and \frac{1}{2} x is the same as \frac{1x}{2}, so to solve this, multiply both sides of the equation by two, resulting in x = 8. SO from this we can conclude that the weekly allowance is $8
