Looking at the bill in a restaurant Mr. Svoboda had a difficult time reading the price of the meal. But he could see that 5% tax

, or $0.73,was added to it. What would be a 15% tip on the meal, if it were figured before taxes?

Answer:

The tip would be worth $2.19

Step-by-step explanation:

x - is the full bill

1/20 x = $0.73

Solve for x:

Multiply both sides by 20.

<u>20</u>*(1/20 x) = <u>20</u>*(0.73)

x = 14.6

Now we just have to find 15% of x to find the tip.

3/20 (14.6) = 2.19

So, the tip would be worth $2.19

David writes down the sequence 2,6,10,14 he says the sequence is n+4 is he correct
Brrunno [24]
No.
Make this a table
X 1 2 3 4
Y 2 6 10 14
Plug in numbers into the equation.
1+4 = 5
or perhaps the third term
3+4 = 7 
doesnt work
He is incorrect. 

The correct equation would be
2+4n = y

at a school number of boys : number of girls =9:7. There are 116 more boys than girls. Work out the total number of students at
Amanda [17]
X=number of boys.
y=number of girls.
we suggest this system of equation
x/y=9/7
x=y+116
We solve this system of equation by substitution method.
(y+116)/y=9/7
7(y+116)=9y
7y+812=9y
9y-7y=812
2y=812
y=812/2=406

x=y+116
x=406+116=522

answer: At the school there are 522 boys and 406 girls.

to chek.
522/406=1.2857...
9/7=1.2857...

The number of boys (522) is equal to 406+116=522.

A statistics teacher started class one day by drawing the names of 10 students out of a hat and asked them to do as many pushups
mash [69]

Using the t-distribution, we have that the 95% confidence interval for the true mean number of pushups that can be done is (9, 21).

For this problem, we have the <u>standard deviation for the sample</u>, thus, the t-distribution is used.

  • The sample mean is of 15, thus \overline{x} = 15.
  • The sample standard deviation is of 9, thus s = 9.
  • The sample size is of 10, thus n = 10.

First, we find the number of degrees of freedom, which is the one less than the sample size, thus df = 9.

Then, looking at the t-table or using a calculator, we find the critical value for a 95% confidence interval, with 9 df, thus t = 2.2622.

The margin of error is of:

M = t\frac{s}{n}

Then:

M = 2.2622\frac{9}{\sqrt{10}} = 6

The confidence interval is:

\overline{x} \pm M

Then

\overline{x} - M = 15 - 6 = 9

\overline{x} + M = 15 + 6 = 21

The confidence interval is (9, 21).
