A store offers a 15% discount on all items in the store during a sale. All store employees get an additional 10% employee discou

nt. In the equation below, C represents the cost of an item for an employee including tax, and x represents the original price of the item.
C = 0.765x + 0.06(0.765x)

Chris is an employee at the store. He plans to buy a coat during the sale. The price of the coat before the discount is $100. How much will Chris pay for the coat during the sale?

<span>C = 0.765x + 0.06(0.765x) X = 100 C = 0.765(100) + 0.06(0.765*100) C = 76.50 + 0.06(76.50) C = 76.50 + 4.59 C = 81.09 (sale price of coat)</span>

The manager went over the sales of mobile phones at the store and found that the mean sale was 45, with a standard deviation of

d1i1m1o1n [39]

The z-score of the sale of mobile phones on that day is 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of z-score is z = (x - μ)/σ, where:

x is the score
μ is the mean
σ is the standard deviation

∵ The mean sale was 45

∴ μ = 45

∵ The standard deviation was 4

∴ σ = 4

∵ 52 mobile phones were sold on a particular day

∴ x = 52

To find z-score of the sale of mobile phones on that day substitute the values of x, μ, and σ in the formula of z-score

∵ $z=\frac{52-45}{4}$

∴ $z=\frac{7}{4}$

∴ z = 1.75

The z-score of the sale of mobile phones on that day is 1.75

from a window 24 feet above the ground, the angle of elevation to the top of another building is 38 degrees. The distance betwee

Delvig [45]

Answer:

The height of the building is $73.2\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

$tan(38\°)=\frac{BC}{AB}$

we have

$AB=63\ ft$

substitute and solve for BC

$tan(38\°)=\frac{BC}{63}$

$BC=(63)tan(38\°)=49.2\ ft$

Find the height of the building

The height of the building (h) is equal to

$h=BC+24=49.2+24=73.2\ ft$

In order to estimate the difference between the average hourly wages of employees of two branches of a department store, the fol

Julli [10]

Answer:

$0.071,1.928$

Step-by-step explanation:

Downtown Store North Mall Store

Sample size n 25 20

Sample mean $\bar{x}$ $9 $8

Sample standard deviation s $2 $1

$n_1=25\\n_2=20$

$\bar{x_1}=9\\ \bar{x_2}=8$

$s_1=2\\s_2=1$

$x_1-x_2=9-8=1$

Standard error of difference of means = $\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{s_2^2}{n_2}}$

Standard error of difference of means = $\sqrt{\frac{2^2}{25}+\frac{1^2}{20}}$

Standard error of difference of means = $0.458$

Degree of freedom = $\frac{\sqrt{(\frac{s_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{s_2^2}{n_2}})^2}{\frac{(\frac{s_1^2}{n_1})^2}{n_1-1}+\frac{(\frac{s_2^2}{n_2})^2}{n_2-1}}$

Degree of freedom = $\frac{\sqrt{(\frac{2^2}{25}+\frac{1^2}{20}})^2}{\frac{(\frac{2^2}{25})^2}{25-1}+\frac{(\frac{1^2}{20})^2}{20-1}}$

Degree of freedom =36

So, z value at 95% confidence interval and 36 degree of freedom = 2.0280

Confidence interval = $(x_1-x_2)-z \times SE(x_1-x_2),(x_1-x_2)+z \times SE(x_1-x_2)$

Confidence interval = $1-(2.0280)\times 0.458,1+(2.0280)\times 0.458$

Confidence interval = $0.071,1.928$

Hence Option A is true

Confidence interval is $0.071,1.928$
