1500* .18 = 270

2. multiply 270 by 6

270*6 = 1620

3. add 1620 to 1500

1620+ 1500 = 3120

Answer: you can rent the kayak for 5.3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of money that you have to spend at the beach is 50.

A kayak cost 5 per hour to rent. This means that if you rent the Kayak for X hours, the amount that you will spend would be 5×x = 5x. I buy lunch for 8.50. I want to save 15 for food later. This means that total amount of money spent is the sum of money spent in renting the kayak and buying of lunch.

Total amount spent = 5x + 8.50

Total amount spent + Total amount that you want to save = Total amount of money that you have to spend at the beach. Therefore

5x + 8.50 + 15 = 50 - 15 - 8.5 = 26.5

x = 26.5/5 = 5.3

The standard deviation for actuary salaries has a standard deviation of $36,730 . You collect a simple random sample of n=36 sal

Yanka [14]

Using the z-distribution, it is found that the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval is of $99,002.

<h3>What is a z-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

$\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which:

$\overline{x}$ is the sample mean.

z is the critical value.

n is the sample size.

$\sigma$ is the standard deviation for the population.

In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence $\alpha = 0.95$ , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of $\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975$ , so the critical value is z = 1.96.
