It is estimated that there are 10^20 grains of sand on a beach in Florida in April. The beach is heavily eroded by tourists over

the peak summer holiday season. Approximately one hundredth of the beach is removed as a result of this erosion. How many grains of sand are removed from the beach?

\bf \textit{how much is }\frac{1}{100}\quad of \quad 10^{20}?\implies \stackrel{\textit{one hundredth}}{\cfrac{1}{100}}\cdot 10^{20}\implies \cfrac{1}{10^2}\cdot 10^{20}

10^{-2}\cdot 10^{20}\implies 10^{-2+20}\implies 10^{18}

Several years​ ago, 43​% of parents who had children in grades​ K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students r
Ne4ueva [31]
<h2><u>Answer with explanation</u>:</h2>

Let p be the population proportion of parents who had children in grades​ K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive.

Set of hypothesis :

H_0: p=0.43\\\\ H_a:p\neq0.43

Confidence interval for population proportion is given by :-

\hat{p}\pm z_c\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}} , where

n= sample size

\hat{p}= sample proportion

and z_c is the two-tailed z-value for confidence level (c).

As per given ,

Sample size of parents : n= 1085

Number of parents indicated that they were satisfied= 466

Sample proportion :  \hat{p}=\dfrac{466}{1085}\approx0.429

Critical value for 90​% confidence interval : z_c=1.645  ( by z-value table)

Now, the  90​% confidence interval :

0.429\pm (1.645)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.429(1-0.429)}{1085}}\\\\=0.429\pm 0.0247\\\\=(0.429-0.0247,\ 0.429+0.0247)\\\\=(0.4043,\ 0.4537)

Thus , the 90​% confidence interval: (0.4043, 0.4537).

Since 0.43 lies in 90​% confidence interval , it means we do not  have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis .

i.e. We are have no evidence that parents' attitudes toward the quality of education have changed.

Subtract. 0.63–(–9.85)<br> a. –10.48<br> b. –9.22<br> c. 9.22<br> d. 10.48
zaharov [31]
Negative times negative = positive.

=0.63−(−9.85)
=0.63+9.85
=10.48

Sandy has 27 roses, 9 daisies, and 18 tulips. She wants to arrange all the flowers in bouquets. Each bouquet has the same number
AlekseyPX

Answer:

The greatest number of flowers that could be in a bouquet is 9 flowers

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using Greatest Common Factor method. We find the factors of 27, 9 and 18. The greatest factor common to the 3 number is our answer.

The factors of 9 are: 1, 3, 9

The factors of 18 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

The factors of 27 are: 1, 3, 9, 27

Then the greatest common factor is 9.

The greatest number of flowers that could be in a bouquet is 9 flowers
