The sales tax was $3.49. Subtract $69.78 from $100.00 to get $30.22. Then subtract $26.73 from $30.22 to get $3.49 :)

$29.22 because $100-$70.78=$29.22
Hope I helped let me know.

What is the interest rate $2,200 at 7.5% for 3 1/4 years
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

$536.25

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find what 7.5% of $2,200 is,

(2200/100)7.5=165

then to find how much interest has accumulated over 3 1/4 year you need to multiply the one-year interest rate by the 3.25

(165)3.25=536.25

Kristen invests $ 5745 in a bank. The bank 6.5% interest compounded monthly. How long must she leave the money in the bank for i
podryga [215]

Answer:

1. 10.7 years

2. 17.0 years

3. 2nd option

Step-by-step explanation:

Use formula for compounded interest

A=P\cdot \left(1+\dfrac{r}{n}\right)^{nt},

where

A is final value, P is initial value, r is interest rate (as decimal), n is number of periods and t is number of years.

In your case,

1. P=$5745, A=2P=$11490, n=12 (compounded monthly), r=0.065 (6.5%) and t is unknown. Then

11490=5745\cdot \left(1+\dfrac{0.065}{12}\right)^{12t},\\ \\2=(1.0054)^{12t},\\ \\12t=\log_{1.0054}2,\\ \\t=\dfrac{1}{12}\log_ {1.0054}2\approx 10.7\ years.

2. P=$5745, A=3P=$17235, n=12 (compounded monthly), r=0.065 (6.5%) and t is unknown. Then


17235=5745\cdot \left(1+\dfrac{0.065}{12}\right)^{12t},

3=(1.0054)^{12t},

12t=\log_{1.0054}3,

t=\dfrac{1}{12}\log_{1.0054}3\approx 17.0\ years.

3. <u>1 choice:</u> P=$5745, n=12 (compounded monthly), r=0.065 (6.5%), t=5 years and A is unknown. Then

A=5745\cdot \left(1+\dfrac{0.065}{12}\right)^{12\cdot 5},\\ \\A=5745\cdot (1.0054)^{60}\approx \$7936.39.

<u>2 choice:</u> P=$5745, n=4 (compounded monthly), r=0.0675 (6.75%), t=5 years and A is unknown. Then

A=5745\cdot \left(1+\dfrac{0.0675}{4}\right)^{4\cdot 5},\\ \\A=5745\cdot (1.0169)^{20}\approx \$8032.58.

The best will be 2nd option, because $8032.58>$7936.39

A crossover trial is a type of experiment used to compare two drugs. Subjects take one drug for a period of time and then switch
zysi [14]

Answer:

t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{-0.714 -0}{\frac{1.38}{\sqrt{7}}}=-1.369

df=n-1=7-1=6

p_v =2*P(t_{(6)}

We see that the p value is higher than the ususal significance levels commonly used of 1% or 5% so then we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and there is not enough evidence to conclude that we have a different response between the two drugs

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following info given by the problem

Subject  1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Drug A  6 3 4 5 7 1 4

Drug B  5 1 5 5 5 2 2

x=value for drug A , y = value for drug B

x: 6 3 4 5 7 1 4  

y: 5 1 5 5 5 2 2

We want to verify if the mean response differs between the two drugs then  the system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_y- \mu_x = 0

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_y -\mu_x \neq 0

We can begin calculating the difference d_i=y_i-x_i and we obtain this:

d: -1, -2, 1, 0, -2, 1, -2

Now we can calculate the mean difference  

\bar d= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}=-0.714

Now we can find the the standard deviation for the differences, and we got:

s_d =\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (d_i -\bar d)^2}{n-1}}=1.38

And now we can calculate the statistic given by :

t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{-0.714 -0}{\frac{1.38}{\sqrt{7}}}=-1.369

Now we can find the degrees of freedom given by:

df=n-1=7-1=6

We can calculate the p value, since we have a two tailed test the p value is given by:

p_v =2*P(t_{(6)}

We see that the p value is higher than the ususal significance levels commonly used of 1% or 5% so then we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and there is not enough evidence to conclude that we have a different response between the two drugs
