<u>Answer-</u>

<em>It </em><em>is reasonable</em><em> that the state education department claims the percentage for the entire state is 63%.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

153 out of the 258 high school students surveyed at a local school said they went outside more during school hours as elementary school students than they do now as high school students.

Here,

x = 153,

n = 258,

Then,

\text{sample proportion}=p=\dfrac{153}{258}=0.5930=59.30\%

And,

\text{Margin Error}=2\times \sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}

Putting the values,

\text{ME}=2\times \sqrt{\dfrac{(0.5930)(1-0.5930)}{258}}\\\\=2\times \sqrt{\dfrac{(0.5930)(0.407)}{258}}\\\\=2\times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.2414}{208}}\\\\=2\times 0.0341\\\\=0.0682\\\\=6.82\%

The interval would be,

=(59.30-6.82,\ 59.30+6.82)\\\\=(52.48,\ 66.12)

As population proportion p=63% lies in this interval, so it is reasonable.

We have 9 choices for Choosing the first object

              8 choices for Choosing the 2nd object

              .

              .

              .

             3 choices for Choosing the seventh object

Therefore if we want to choose7 objects without replacement from 9 objects we have : 9×8×7×6×5×4×3 = 181 440

Also ,we can calculate it this way :

9P7 = 181 440

7 Carolina fosters 5 puppies. For each puppy she buys a crate that costs c dollars
Elena L [17]

2 Answers:

Choice B and Choice C

====================================================

Reasoning:

c = cost of one crate (some unknown amount in dollars)

c+20 = cost of a crate and a leash

5(c+20) = cost of five sets of items mentioned

5(c+20) = 475 is one equation we can form

5c+100 = 475 is another equation we can form

I used the distributive rule to go from 5(c+20) to 5c+100.

The 100 indicates that the five leashes combine to $100, since 5*20 = 100.

The 5c represents the cost of all five crates combined.

So 5c+100 is another way to express the total cost of all five crates and all five leashes.

---------------

Side note: Solving either equation leads to c = 75, meaning that each crate costs $75.
