Answer:

$ 1900

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting from the equation of simple interest, which is defined as follows:

 I = P * r * t

Being I the interest, P the value of the product, r the interest rate and t would be time.

We want to know the price of the product, therefore, solving the equation we have:

P = I / r * t

We know each other's values so we replace:

 P = 1026 / (0.135 * 4)

P = $ 1900 was the value of the refrigerator Jaime bought.

PLZ HELP WORTH A LOT OF POINTS AND I HAVE 10 MINUTES!!!!
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The area after 9 years will be 1,234 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating what the area of a certain forest that decreases at a certain percentage would be after some years.

To answer this question, we shall be using an exponential approximation.

Now, to use this exponential approximation, we shall be needing a supporting exponential mathematical equation.

This can be written as;

A = I(1-r)^t

where A is the new area we are looking for

I is the initial area which is 1700 according to the question

r is the rate of decrease which is 3.5% = 3.5/100 = 0.035

t is time which is 9 years according to the question

We plug these values and have the following;

A = 1700(1-0.035)^9

A = 1700(0.965)^9

A = 1,233.66

This is 1,234 km^2 to the nearest square kilometer

A survey sampled men and women workers and asked if they expected to get a raise or promotion this year. Suppose the survey samp
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

a)

The null hypothesis is: H_0: p_M - p_W = 0

The alternative hypothesis is: H_1: p_M - p_W > 0

b) For men is of 0.49 and for women is of 0.36.

c) The p-value of the test is 0.0039 < 0.01, which means that the results are statistically significant so that you can conclude a greater proportion of men expect to get a raise or a promotion this year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Before solving this question, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

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.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Men:

98 out of 200, so:

p_M = \frac{98}{200} = 0.49

s_M = \sqrt{\frac{0.49*0.51}{200}} = 0.0353

Women:

72 out of 200, so:

p_W = \frac{72}{200} = 0.36

s_W = \sqrt{\frac{0.36*0.64}{200}} = 0.0339

a. State the hypothesis test in terms of the population proportion of men and the population proportion of women.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion are similar, that is, if the subtraction of the proportions is 0, so:

H_0: p_M - p_W = 0

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion of men is greater, that is, the subtraction is greater than 0, so:

H_1: p_M - p_W > 0

b. What is the sample proportion for men? For women?

For men is of 0.49 and for women is of 0.36.

c. Use α= 0.01 level of significance. What is the p-value and what is your conclusion?

From the sample, we have that:

X = p_M - p_W = 0.49 - 0.36 = 0.13

s = \sqrt{s_M^2+s_W^2} = \sqrt{0.0353^2 + 0.0339^2} = 0.0489

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, and s is the standard error, so:

z = \frac{0.13 - 0}{0.0489}

z = 2.66

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a difference above 0.13, which is the p-value of z = 2.66.

Looking at the z-table, z = 2.66 has a p-value of 0.9961.

1 - 0.9961 = 0.0039.

The p-value of the test is 0.0039 < 0.01, which means that the results are statistically significant so that you can conclude a greater proportion of men expect to get a raise or a promotion this year.

Suppose the population of a town is 9,800 and is growing 2% each year. a. Write an equation to model the population growth. b. P
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general exponential growth model is defined as

f(x)=a(1+r)^x

Where, a is initial value, r is growth rate and x is time.

The initial population of town is 9800 and growth rate is 2%. The population growth model is defined as

f(x)=9800(1+\frac{2}{100})^x

f(x)=9800(1+0.02)^x

f(x)=9800(1.02)^x

Put x=7 to find the estimated population after 7 years.

f(x)=9800(1.02)^7

f(x)=11257.119543\approx 11257

Therefore the correct option is A.
