Answer:

7 months

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation which gives us J's weight after any particular month is

W(m) = 180 lb - (5 lb/mo)t

Her goal weight is 145 lb.

Therefore, write:

W(m) = 145 lb = 180 lb - (5 lb/mo)t.

We must solve this equation.  To do so, subtract 180 lb from both sides of the equation:

145 lb - 180 lb =  - (5 lb/mo)t

-35 lb =  - (5 lb/mo)t

t = 35 lb   /   (5lb/mo) =  7 mo

J. must diet for 7 months to get her weight down to 145 lb from 180 lb.

ASAP HELP: If a sample proportion is 0.55, which range of possible values best describes an estimate for the population paramete
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

B.(0.4,0.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Sample proportion

\hat{p}=0.55

We have to find the range of possible values which   describes best  an estimate for the population parameter.

Estimate  for the population parameter

\hat{p}\pm Z(SE)

A.(0.55,0.6)

Difference between 0.55 and 0.55=0

Difference between 0.55 and 0.6=0.05

Difference between 0.55 and 0.55 is not equal to difference between 0.55 and 0.6.

Hence, option A is wrong.

B.(0.4,0.7)

Difference between 0.55 and 0.4=0.15

Difference between 0.55 and 0.7=0.15

Difference between 0.55 and 0.4 is equal to difference between 0.55 and 0.7.

Hence, option B is correct.

C. (0.4,0.69)

Difference between 0.55 and 0.4=0.15

Difference between 0.55 and 0.69=0.14

Difference between 0.55 and 0.4 is not equal to difference between 0.55 and 0.69.

Hence, option C is not correct.

D.(0.5,0.59)

Difference between 0.55 and 0.5=0.05

Difference between 0.55 and 0.59=0.04

Difference between 0.55 and 0.5 is not equal to difference between 0.55 and 0.59.

Hence, option D is not  correct.

A survey of 500 high school students was taken to determine their favorite chocolate candy. Of the 500 students surveyed, 64 lik
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

466 student

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students that like at most 2 kinds of these chocolate candies can be gotten from subtracting the number of students that like more than 2 candies from the total number of high school students.

Since 34 like all three kinds of chocolate candy, hence:

Number of students that like at most 2 kinds of these chocolate candies = 500 - 34 = 466

466 students like at most 2 kinds of these chocolate candies
