Step-by-step explanation:

$p\%=\dfrac{p}{100}$

$a)\\20\%=\dfrac{20}{100}=\dfrac{2}{10}=0.2\\\\20\%\ of\ \£150\to0.2\cdot\£150=\£30\\\\b)\\15\%=\dfrac{15}{100}=0.15\\\\15\%\ of\ 80kg\to0.15\cdot80kg=12kg\\\\c)\\85\%=\dfrac{85}{100}=0.85\\\\85\%\ of\ 2500m\to0.85\cdot2500m=2125m$

A random sample of the amounts for 22 purchases was taken. The mean was $42.97, the standard deviation was $22.82, and the m

Illusion [34]

Answer: a) 84 and b ) 2084

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sample standard deviation : s= $22.82

(Population standard deviation is unknown ) , so we use t-test.

Critical value or the 95% confidence intervals : $t_{n-1}*=2.0$

Formula to find the sample size :

$n=(\dfrac{t^*\cdot s}{E})^2$

a) E = 5

$n=(\dfrac{(2)\cdot 22.82}{5})^2$

$n=(9.128)^2=83.320384\approx84$

i.e. Required sample size : n= 84

b) E = 1

$n=(\dfrac{(2)\cdot 22.82}{1})^2$

$n=(45.64)^2=2083.0096\approx2084$

i.e. Required sample size : n= 2084

Circle Q is centered at the origin with radius r. Point P(x, y) lies on circle Q. Make a conjecture. How can you find an equatio

salantis [7]

Answer:

The relation $x^{2} +y^{2} =r^{2}$ is explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

P(x, y) is a point on the circle. Q is the origin. Join PQ.

PQ is the radius.

Therefore, PQ = r

Draw PS perpendicular to the x-axis.

Now, ΔPQS is a right triangle.

By Pythagoros theorem,

$PQ^{2}=PS^{2} +QS^{2}$

$r^{2}=x^{2} +y^{2}$

$x^{2} +y^{2} =r^{2}$
