Alexa has at most $60 to spend on the clothes. She wants to buy a pair of jeans for $22 and spend the rest on t shirts. Each t s

hirt cost $8. Write an inequality that could be used to find x, the number of t shirts Alexa can buy.

Answer: 22 + 8x ≤ 60

Step-by-step explanation: She has to spend 22 dollars on jeans, so $22 will be added to the initial amount. The <em>x </em>will be the number of t-shirts and then the cost of <em>x </em>t-shirts will be <em>8x</em>. Putting this into inequality form will result in <u>22 + 8x ≤ 60</u>

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

a. P(x>20)=0.19

b. P(x≥6)=0.72

c. P(x≤20)=0.81

d. A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

1) the probability that a student makes fewer than 6 mistakes is 0.28

$P(x$

2) The probaiblity that a student makes between 6 to 20 mistakes is 0.53.

$P(6\leq x\leq20)=0.53$

We will express the proabilibities in function of the information we have.

a. Probability that a student makes more than 20 mistakes.

$P(x>20)=1-P(x\leq20)=1-(P(x20)=1-(0.28+0.53)=1-0.81=0.19$

b. Probability that the student make 6 or more mistakes

$P(x\geq6)=1-P(Px$

c. Probability that a student makes 20 mistakes at most

$P(x\leq20)=P(x$

d. A and C, because A takes a event of more than 20 mistakes and C takes the event of 20 or less mistakes. Both events cover a probability of 1.

Jenny opened a package of screws quickly and many of them spilled on the floor. She needs to organize the fasteners according to

hichkok12 [17]

We have to compare diameters and arrange them in order smallest to greatest

We can see units for option A and B are in square inches so they represents area. So first we will find diameter from area using formula

$A = \pi r^{2}$

so for choice (A) area is given as $4.375 \times 10^{7}$ . So plug this in A place in formula and then solve for radius r

$4.375 \times 10^{7} = \pi r^{2}$

$\frac{4.375 \times 10^{7}}{\pi} = \frac{\pi r^{2}}{\pi}$

$1.393 \times 10^{7} } = r^{2}$

$\sqrt{1.393 \times 10^{7}} = \sqrt{r^{2}}$

3731.76 = r

So screw A will have
$diameter = 2 \times r = 2 \times 3731.76 = 7463.52$ inches

Similarly for choice (E) area is $1.428 \times 10^{1} = 14.28$
so again plug in formula

$A = \pi r^{2}$

$14.28 = \pi r^{2}$

$\frac{14.28}{\pi} = \frac{\pi r^{2}}{\pi}$

$4.5477 = r^{2}$

$\sqrt{4.5477} = \sqrt{r^{2}}$

2.13201 = r

So screw E will have
$diameter = 2 \times r = 2 \times 2.13201 = 4.26402$ inches

So diameters of all screws are as follows:

Screw A: 7463.52 inches
Screw B: 1.5 inches
Screw C: $1\frac{7}{8} = \frac{1\times 8+7}{8} = \frac{15}{8} = 1.875$ inches
Screw D: 0.25 inches
Screw E: 4.26402 inches

Comparing all numbers 7463.52, 1.5, 1.875, 0.25, 4.26402 we can see that smallest number is 0.25, then comes 1.5, then 1.875 and then 4.26402 and then 7463.52

So order from least to greatest will be screw D (0.25), B(1.5), C(1.875), E (4.26402), A (7463.52).

So thats the order D,B,C,E,A and the final answer

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval is given by (25.71536 ;28.32464)

And if we need to round we can use the following excel code:

round(lower,2)

[1] 25.72

round(upper,2)

[1] 28.32

And the interval would be (25.72; 28.32)

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation and definitions

n=50 represent the sample size

$\bar X= 27.2$ represent the sample mean

$s=5.83$ represent the sample standard deviation

m represent the margin of error

Confidence =88% or 0.88

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Calculate the critical value tc

In order to find the critical value is important to mention that we don't know about the population standard deviation, so on this case we need to use the t distribution. Since our interval is at 88% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.88=0.12$ and $\alpha/2 =0.06$ . The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df=n-1=50-1=49$

We can find the critical values in R using the following formulas:

qt(0.06,49)

[1] -1.582366

qt(1-0.06,49)

[1] 1.582366

The critical value $tc=\pm 1.582366$

Calculate the margin of error (m)

The margin of error for the sample mean is given by this formula:

$m=t_c \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

$m=1.582366 \frac{5.83}{\sqrt{50}}=14.613$

With R we can do this:

m=1.582366*(5.83/sqrt(50))

m

[1] 1.304639

Calculate the confidence interval

The interval for the mean is given by this formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{c} \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

And calculating the limits we got:

$27.02 - 1.582366 \frac{5.83}{\sqrt{50}}=25.715$

$27.02 + 1.582366 \frac{5.83}{\sqrt{50}}=28.325$

Using R the code is:

lower=27.02-m;lower

[1] 25.71536

upper=27.02+m;upper

[1] 28.32464

The 95% confidence interval is given by (25.71536 ;28.32464)

And if we need to round we can use the following excel code:

round(lower,2)

[1] 25.72

round(upper,2)

[1] 28.32

And the interval would be (25.72; 28.32)
