Grayson went to the grocery store and bought bottles of soda and bottles of juice. Each bottle of soda has 35 grams of sugar and

Illusion [34]

The number of bottles of soda purchased is 10 and the number of bottles of juice purchased is 4.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let us consider the soda bottles as x and juice bottles as y.

From the given data we can derive 2 equations,

35x+15y= 410. .....(1)

x=y+6. ....(2)

Substitute equation (2) in (1),

35(y+6)+15y=410.

35y+ 210+15y=410.

50y+210=410.

50y=410-210.

50y=200.

y=4.

Substitute y value in equation (2),

x=4+6.

x=10.

The number of bottles of soda purchased is 10 and the number of bottles of juice purchased is 4.

You and your friend are painting the walls in your apartment. You estimate that there is 1000 square feet of space to be painted

leva [86]

After 45 minutes you will have painted 4*45=180 square feet.

so the total number of painted area, y, is:

y=180+x*(3+4) after the 45 minutes

where x is the number of minutes AFTER THE 45 minutes:

if y is 1000 then

1000=180+x*7
820=x*7
x=117.14

so 117 minutes, or one hour and 57 minutes.

A recent survey based on a random sample of n=470 voters, predicted that independent candidate for the mayoral election will get

julsineya [31]

I have an expression

$\sigma = \sqrt{p(1-p)/n}$

floating around in my head; let's see if it makes sense.

The variance of binary valued random variable b that comes up 1 with probability p (so has mean p) is

$E( (b-p)^2 ) = (-p)^2(1-p) + (1-p)^2p = p(1-p)$

That's for an individual sample. For the observed average we divide by n, and for the standard deviation we take the square root:

$\sigma = \sqrt{p(1-p)/n}$

Plugging in the numbers,

$\sigma = \sqrt{.24(1-.24)/490} = 0.019 = 1.9\%$

One standard deviation of the average is almost 2% so a 27% outcome was 3/1.9 = 1.6 standard deviations from the mean, corresponding to a two sided probability of a bit bigger than 10% of happening by chance.

So this is borderline suspect; most surveys will include a two sigma margin of error, say plus or minus 4 percent here, and the results were within those bounds.
