Answer:

The probability that the proportion of books checked out in a sample of 412 books would differ from the population proportion by less than 4% is P=0.9255.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population's proportion is \pi=0.29

If we take a sample of 412 books (n=412), we have a standard deviation of the sampling distribution of:

\sigma_M=\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.29*0.71}{412}}=\sqrt{0.0005} =0.0224

We have to calculate the probabilty that the sample proportion will be between 0.25 and 0.33.

z_1=(0.25-0.29)/0.0224=-0.04/0.0224=-1.7857\\\\z_2=1.7857\\\\\\P(0.25

6 pounds of apples and 3 pounds of oranges cost 24 dollars.5 pounds of apples and 4 pounds of oranges cost 23 dollars. Set up a
vitfil [10]

Answer:cost of each pound of apple= $3

And cost of each pound of orange =$2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let cost of apples = x

And cost of Oranges =y

Let 6 pounds of apples and 3 pounds of oranges cost 24 dollars be represented as

6 x + 3y= 24----- equation 1

Also, Let 5 pounds of apples and 4 pounds of oranges cost 23 dollars be represented as

5x+ 4y= 23----- equation 2

Step 2

6 x + 3y= 24----- equation 1

5x+ 4y= 23----- equation 2

Using substitution method to solve the equation

6 x + 3y= 24

24-6x=3y

y= 24-6x/3 = 8-2x

Y= 8-2x

Substituting the value of y= 8-2x  into equation 2

5x+ 4( 8-2x)= 23

5x+ 32 -8x= 23

32-23= 8x-5x

9=3x

x=9/3

x=3

Putting the value of x= 3 in equation 1 and solving to find y

6 x + 3y= 24

6(3) +3y= 24

18+3y=24

3y= 24-18

3y=6

y=6/3= 2

Therefore the cost of each pound of apple= $3

And cost of each pound of orange =$2
