If 20 is increased by 50%, what is the new amount?

1 answer:

6 0

Hello!

New value =

20 + Percentage increase =

20 + (50% × 20) =

20 + 50% × 20 =

(1 + 50%) × 20 =

(100% + 50%) × 20 =

150% × 20 =

150 ÷ 100 × 20 =

150 × 20 ÷ 100 =

3,000 ÷ 100 =

30;
20 increased by 50% = 30 
Absolute change (actual difference): 30 - 20 = 10

Hope this Helps! Have A Wonderful Day! :)

A consumer believes that a certain potato chip maker is putting fewer chips in their regular bags of chips than the advertised a

Answer:

a) No

b) No

c) P value is more than 0.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 12 ounces

Sample size, n = 49

P-value = 0.136

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: \mu = 12\text{ ounces}\\H_A: \mu < 12\text{ ounces}$

We use One-tailed z test to perform this hypothesis.

a) Alpha, α = 0.05

Since, p-value > α,

The null hypothesis should not be rejected. We accept the null hypothesis and reject the alternate hypothesis. We conclude that the average chip weight is 12 ounces per bag.

b) Alpha, α = 0.10

Since, p-value > α,

The null hypothesis should not be rejected. We accept the null hypothesis and reject the alternate hypothesis. We conclude that the average chip weight is 12 ounces per bag.

c) The evidence is statistically significant at the .05 level means that the p value is more than 0.05.

. Write an equation that is perpendicular to y=2x – 1 and has y-intercept of -3

blagie [28]

The answer is very simple .

First you need to determine the slope, which is the reciprocal of the first line.

Then,

y = mx + b

m => -1/m

The perperdicular line has a new slope equal to m = -1/2

In the formula (y - y1) = m ( x - x1 ) + b , you should sustitude this value.
