Please help me I’ve been stuck for awhile

Mathematics
1 answer:
Paul [167]3 years ago
7 0

Hey there! I'm happy to help you out!

Let's think of our original price ($P) as 100%. This is also the same thing as 1 because 100% is one whole thing.

Now, we see that he got a 15% off discount. Now, we just subtract 15% from 100% to see what percent he actually payed.

100%-15%=85%

This means that $R is 85% of $P (100%).

Answer A is not correct because 0.85% is less than 1%, which is not 85%.

Answer B is not correct either because 0.15% is also less than 1%.

Answer C is correct because $R is 85% of the original cost.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!

A line has a y-intercept at (0,−15) and contains the point (−4,−3). What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form?
nydimaria [60]

Answer: y=-3x-15

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope and "b" the y-intercept.

Since the given line  has a y-intercept at (0,-15), then:

b=-15

The formula for calculate the slope is:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Knowing that the given line contains the points (0,-15) and (-4,-3), we can calculate the slope. This is:

 m=\frac{-15-(-3)}{0-(-4)}=-3

Substituting values into y=mx+b, we get that the equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=-3x-15

Statistics In the manual “How to Have a Number One the Easy Way,” it is stated that a song “must be no longer than three minutes
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

We conclude that the sample is from a population of songs with a mean greater than 210 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a simple random sample of 40 current hit songs results in a mean length of 252.5 seconds.

Assume that the standard deviation of song lengths is 54.5 sec.

Let \mu = <u><em>population mean length of the songs</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \leq 210 seconds      {means that the sample is from a population of songs with a mean smaller than or equal to 210 seconds}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu > 210 seconds      {means that the sample is from a population of songs with a mean greater than 210 seconds}

The test statistics that will be used here is <u>One-sample z-test statistics </u>because we know about population standard deviation;

                              T.S.  =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \bar X = sample mean length of songs = 252.5 seconds

            \sigma = population standard deviation = 54.5 seconds

            n = sample of current hit songs = 40

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u> =  \frac{252.5-210}{\frac{54.5}{\sqrt{40} } }

                                   =  4.932

The value of z-test statistics is 4.932.

Now, at 0.05 level of significance, the z table gives a critical value of 1.645 for the right-tailed test.

Since the value of our test statistics is more than the critical value of z as 4.932 > 1.645, so <u><em>we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis</em></u> as it will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the sample is from a population of songs with a mean greater than 210 seconds.
