A grocery store purchases bags of chips for $2 and marks up the price by 162%. The store is having a sale where everything is on

drek231 [11]

Answer:

4.62

Step-by-step explanation:

2 * 1.62= 3.24

new cost is $3.24 + 2 = 5.24

5.24 * .12 = .62 discount

5.24 - .62

Two chemists working for a chicken fast-food company, have been producing a very popular sauce. Let’s call then Jesse and Mr. Wh

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $\overline{x}$ and $\overline{y}$ be sample means of white and Jesse denotes are two random variables.

Given that both samples are having normally distributed.

Assume $\overline{x}$ having with mean $\mu_{1}$ and $\overline{y}$ having mean $\mu_{2}$

Also we have given the variance is constant

A)

We can test hypothesis as

$H0: \mu_{1} = \mu_{2}H1: \mu_{1} > \mu_{2}$

For this problem

Test statistic is

$T=\frac{\overline {x}-\overline {y}}{s\sqrt{\frac {1}{n1} +\frac{1}{n2}}}$

Where

$s=\sqrt{\frac{(n1-1)*s1^{2}+(n2-1)*s2^{2}}{n1+n2-2}}$

We have given all information for samples

By calculations we get

s=2.41

T=2.52

Here test statistic is having t-distribution with df=(10+7-2)=15

So p-value is P(t15>2.52)=0.012

Here significance level is 0.05

Since p-value is <0.05 we are rejecting null hypothesis at 95% confidence.

We can conclude that White has significant higher mean than Jesse. This claim we can made at 95% confidence.

Type the correct answer in each box. A circle is centered at the point (5, -4) and passes through the point (-3, 2). The equatio

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

$(x+ \boxed{-5})^2+(y+\boxed4)^2=\boxed{100}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Center of circle is at (5, -4).

A point on the circle is $(x_1,y_1)=(-3, 2)$

Equation of a circle with center $(h,k)$ and radius 'r' is given as:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

Here, $(h,k)=(5,-4)$

Radius of a circle is equal to the distance of point on the circle from the center of the circle and is given using the distance formula for square of the distance as:

$r^2=(h-x_1)^2+(k-y_1)^2$

Using distance formula for the points (5, -4) and (-3, 2), we get

$r^2=(5-(-3))^2+(-4-2)^2\\r^2=(5+3)^2+(-6)^2\\r^2=8^2+6^2\\r^2=64+36=100$

Therefore, the equation of the circle is:

$(x-5)^2+(y-(-4))^2=100\\(x-5)^2+(y+4)^2=100$

Now, rewriting it in the form asked in the question, we get

$(x+ \boxed{-5})^2+(y+\boxed4)^2=\boxed{100}$

Zappos is an online retailer based in Nevada and employs 1,300 employees. One of their competitors, Amazon, would like to test t

Amanda [17]

Answer:

$t=\frac{33.9-36}{\frac{4.1}{\sqrt{22}}}=-2.402$

$df = n-1= 22-1=21$

$t_{\alpha/2}= -2.08$

Since the calculated values is lower than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level of 2.5% and we can say that the true mean is lower than 36 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

$\bar X=33.9$ represent the sample mean

$s=4.1$ represent the sample standard deviation

$n=22$ sample size

$\mu_o =26$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.025$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

System of hypothesis

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is less than 36 years old, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 36$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 36$

The statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

And replacing we got:

$t=\frac{33.9-36}{\frac{4.1}{\sqrt{22}}}=-2.402$

Now we can calculate the critical value but first we need to find the degreed of freedom:

$df = n-1= 22-1=21$

So we need to find a critical value in the t distribution with df =21 who accumulates 0.025 of the area in the left and we got:

$t_{\alpha/2}= -2.08$

Since the calculated values is lower than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level of 2.5% and we can say that the true mean is lower than 36 years old
