Solution: ​(a) if 200 adult smokers are randomly​ selected, how many would we expect to have started smoking before turning 18 years​ old?

Answer: It is expected that in a random sample of 200 adult smokers, 0.70 (200)=140 will have started smoking before turning 18.

​(b) would it be unusual to observe 160 smokers who started smoking before turning 18 years old in a random sample of 200 adult​ smokers? why?

Answer: Yes, it would be unusual to observe 160 smokers who started smoking before turning 18 years old in a random sample of 200 adult​ smokers, because 160 is greater than μ + 2σ

Solve the equation below
kotykmax [81]
1/3(12+x) = -8 (6-x)

Distribute the 1/3 and the -8 through their parentheses

4 + 1/3x = -48 + 8x

subtract 4 from each side

1/3x = -52 + 8x

subtract 8x from each side

1/3x - 8x = -52

combine like terms

1/3x - 24/3x = -52
-23/3x = -52

divide each side by -23/3 (multiply the reciprocal of the divisor)

x = -52 × -3/23
x = 156/23

x = 6 18/23 or 6.78

An executive invests $27,000, some at 5% and the rest at 4% annual interest. If he receives an annual return of $1,220, how much
Shtirlitz [24]

The amount invested at 5% is $12,000 whereas the remaining $15,000 was invested at 4%

What is the amount of annual return for each investment?

The amount of annual return for each investment is determined as the amount invested multiplied by the rate of return

Let us assume that y was invested at 5% and the 27000-y, the remainder was invested at 4%

Total annual return=(y*5%)+(27000-y)*4%

Total annual return=0.05y+1080-0.04y

total annual return=0.01y+1080

total annual return=1220

1220=0.01y+1080

1200-1080=0.01y

120=0.01y

y=120/0.01

y=$12,000(invested at 5%)

amount invested at 4%=27000-12000

amount invested at 4%=$15,000
