Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given</em><em>, </em>

<em>a</em><em> </em><em>student</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>Charles</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>bought</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>car</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>sold</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>%</em><em> </em><em>profit</em><em> </em><em>for</em><em> </em><em>$</em><em>4</em><em>6</em><em>6</em><em>9</em><em>.</em>

<em>we</em><em> </em><em>have</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>formula</em><em>, </em>

<em>cp =  \frac{sp \times 100}{100 + p\%}</em>

<em>so</em><em>,</em><em> </em>

<em>cp =  \frac{4669 \times 100}{100 + 15}</em>

<em>by</em><em> </em><em>simplifying</em><em> </em><em>it we</em><em> </em><em>get</em><em>, </em>

<em>CP</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>$</em><em>4</em><em>0</em><em>6</em><em>0</em><em>.</em>

<em>Therefore</em><em>, </em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>cp</em><em> </em><em>was</em><em> </em><em>$</em><em>4</em><em>0</em><em>6</em><em>0</em><em>.</em>

<em><u>Hope</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>it</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>helps</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>

a store is having a sale on walnuts and chocolate chips. for 3 pounds of walnuts and 5 pounds of chocolate chips, the total cost
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

  • Walnuts - $1.25, chocolate chips - $3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let walnuts = x, chocolate chips = y

<u>Set a system and solve:</u>

  • 3x + 5y = 20
  • 6x + 2y = 14

<u>Double the first equation and subtract the second one from it:</u>

  • 6x + 10y - 6x - 2y = 40 - 14
  • 8y = 26
  • y = 26/8
  • y = 3.25

<u>Find the value of x:</u>

  • 6x + 3.25*2 = 14
  • 6x = 14 - 6.5
  • 6x = 7.5
  • x = 7.5/6
  • x = 1.25

Determine whether the following is an example of a sampling error or a non-sampling error. 12% of all people are left handed. A
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Sampling Error

Step-by-step explanation:

When the researcher randomly selected 200 people, he is creating an sample or subset from the population, that would be all the people in the earth. The error obtained was product of the fact that the analysis he made was estimated from the sample and not the whole population. There is no other mentioned factor that could cause an error, so the answer would be a sampling Error.
