Answer:

161 is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Easy! If Kiersten has 23 balloons and Catherine has 8 times more than Kiersten, all we need to do is multiply. 23x8=184. Now to figure out how many more red balloons Catherine has compared to Kiersten we need to subtract Kiersten's amount from Catherine's amount. 184-23=161. So Catherine has 161 more red balloons than Kiersten.

Answer:

We need to sample at least 1069 parents.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.05 = 0.95$ , so $z = 1.645$

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

How many parents do you have to sample?

We need to sample at least n parents.

n is found when $M = 4, \sigma = 79.5$ . So

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$4 = 1.645*\frac{79.5}{\sqrt{n}}$

$4\sqrt{n} = 1.645*79.5$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645*79.5}{4}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.645*79.5}{4})^{2}$

$n = 1068.92$

Rounding up

We need to sample at least 1069 parents.

Answer : 96

x – y = 16 --------> equation 1

$\frac{1}{8} x +\frac{1}{2} y = 52$

x is the higher grade and y is the lower grade

We solve the first equation for y

x - y = 16

-y = 16 -x ( divide each term by -1)

y = -16 + x

Now substitute y in second equation

$\frac{1}{8} x +\frac{1}{2} ( -16 + x ) = 52$

$\frac{1}{8} x - 8 + \frac{1}{2} x = 52$

$\frac{1}{8} x + \frac{1}{2} x - 8 = 52$

Take common denominator to combine fractions

$\frac{1}{8} x + \frac{4}{8} x -8 = 52$

$\frac{5}{8} x - 8 = 52$

Add 8 on both sides

$\frac{5}{8} x = 60$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{8}{5}$

x = 96

We know x is the higher grade

96 is the higher grade of Jose’s two tests.
