A 28% increase of 150 is

1 answer:

3 0

150x1.28 would be 192. the answer would be 192 because you would first find 28% of 150 and then add that to 150 or you can multiply 150 and 1.28 to get 192.
hint= the decimal form of 28% would be .28

A random sample of 36 students at a community college showed an average age of 25 years. Assume the ages of all students at the

Pavel [41]

Answer:

98% confidence interval for the average age of all students is [24.302 , 25.698]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a random sample of 36 students at a community college showed an average age of 25 years.

Also, assuming that the ages of all students at the college are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 1.8 years.

So, the pivotal quantity for 98% confidence interval for the average age is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample average age = 25 years

$\sigma$ = population standard deviation = 1.8 years

n = sample of students = 36

$\mu$ = population average age

So, 98% confidence interval for the average age, $\mu$ is ;

P(-2.3263 < N(0,1) < 2.3263) = 0.98

P(-2.3263 < $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 2.3263) = 0.98

P( $-2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ < ${\bar X - \mu}$ < $2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ ) = 0.98

P( $\bar X - 2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X +2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ ) = 0.98

98% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X - 2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ , $\bar X +2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ ]

= [ $25 - 2.3263 \times {\frac{1.8}{\sqrt{36} }$ , $25 + 2.3263 \times {\frac{1.8}{\sqrt{36} }$ ]

= [24.302 , 25.698]

Therefore, 98% confidence interval for the average age of all students at this college is [24.302 , 25.698].

Marty made a $220 bank deposit using $10 bills and $5 bills. She gave the teller a total of 38 bills, how many $5 bills were in

Luda [366]

ANSWER: 32 five-dollar bills

======

EXPLANATION:

Let x be number of $5 bills

Let y be number of $10 bills

Since we have total of 38 bills, we must have the sum of x and y be 38

x + y = 38 (I)

Since the total amount deposited is $220, we must have the sum of 5x and 10y be 220 (x and y are just the "number of" their respective bills, so we multiply them by their value to get the total value):

5x + 10y = 220 (II)

System of equations:

$\left\{ \begin{aligned} x + y &= 38 && \text{(I)} \\ 5x + 10y &= 220 && \text{(II)} \end{aligned} \right.$
