If you need the tax for this, you would move the decimal point to the left two spaces making the 40% a decimal (.40) then you would multiply that by 28.80 to get 11.52

Given:

x = 26214.47

s = 5969.25

n = 15

t = 2.046

The confidence interval is:

CI = x ± t (s / √n)

CI = 26214.47 ± 2.046 (5969.25 / √15)

CI = (23061.06, 29367.88)

When calculating probability you need to remember that probability is:
something that you are observing divided by total number of participants.
The number you get is relative value(has value between 0 and 1) and if you want to get it in percentage (more clearly) just multiply it with 100.

In this case we are observing blood type B persons. Number of them is 165.
Total number of persons is 1500. Therefore our calculation looks like this:

165/1500 = 0.11    or  the probability is 0.11*100=11%

Solve the equations -9x + 2y = 23 and -4x - y = -3
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

(-1,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

-9x + 2y = 23

-4x - y = -3

multiplying equation 2 by 2

-9x + 2y = 23

-8x - 2y = -6

adding the two equation to cancel out y

-17x = 17

x = -1

plugging back x = -1 into the second equation

4 - y = -3

-y = -7

y = 7
