Answer:

There are 392 students in the seventh grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that there are x number of students in the seventh grade.

Now, 3/8 of the seventh grade students were taking Advanced math at the beginning of the year, but seven dropped out by the end of the year.

So, after the end of the year there were (\frac{3}{8}x - 7) number of students taking advanced math.

So, as per given condition, (\frac{3}{8}x - 7) = 140

⇒ \frac{3}{8}x = 147

⇒ x = 392

Therefore, there are 392 students in the seventh grade. (Answer)

Suppose you do an analysis of the starting salaries of 100 recent Lehman graduates. You find that the average starting salary is
madreJ [45]

Answer:

a) (59180,60820)

b) (59020,60980)        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = $60,000

Standard Deviation, σ = $5,000

Sample size, n = 100

a) 90% critical values

\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting the values, we get,

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = 1.64

60000 \pm 1.64(\frac{5000}{\sqrt{100}} ) = 60000 \pm 820 = (59180,60820)

b) 95% critical values

\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting the values, we get,

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96

60000 \pm 1.96(\frac{5000}{\sqrt{100}} ) = 60000 \pm 980= (59020,60980)

An animal shelter wants their ratio of dogs to cats to be 3:2. If the animal shelter has 78 dogs, how many cats should they have
OleMash [197]
The simplest way to do this is to set up equivalent fractions. So, you'd do:

\frac{3}{2} = \frac{78}{x} and then solve for x. 

x=52
