Answer:

  • $1375 at 14%
  • $475 at 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount Peter invested at 14%. Then (x-900) is the amount he invested at 6%. His total interest earned is ...

  0.14x + 0.06(x -900) = 221

  0.20x = 275 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 54, simplify

  x = 1375 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 0.2; amount invested at 14%

  (x-900) = 475 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . amount invested at 6%

Peter invested $475 in the 6% account and $1375 in the 14% account.

Which statement is true about the reflectional symmetry of a regular heptagon? Check all that apply
Slav-nsk [51]

Answa line of symmetry will connect a vertex and a midpoint of an opposite side

it has 7-fold symmetry.  


Step-by-step explanation:

A line of symmetry is a line that we can use to "fold" a figure in half. In order to do this, we will "fold" the figure from a vertex to the middle of the side opposite the vertex. Since there are 7 vertices, there will be 7 lines of reflection. i looked it up so i hope this helps you can thank

Life Expectancies In a study of the life expectancy of people in a certain geographic region, the mean age at death was years an
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The probability that the mean life expectancy of the sample is less than X years is the p-value of Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}, in which \mu is the mean life expectancy, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

We have:

Mean \mu, standard deviation \sigma.

Sample of size n:

This means that the z-score is now, by the Central Limit Theorem:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

Find the probability that the mean life expectancy will be less than years.

The probability that the mean life expectancy of the sample is less than X years is the p-value of Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}, in which \mu is the mean life expectancy, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
