Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Information provided
n=100 represent the random sample taken
X=21 represent the number of bags overfilled
estimated proportion of overfilled bags
is the value that we want to test
z would represent the statistic
Hypothesis
We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test if the true proportion of overfilled bags is higher than 0.15.:
Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
The statistic for this case is:
(1)
And replacing the info given we got:
Here you are giving only the amount they want to raise (namely profit times number of magazines sold), and here you are also giving Money they want to raise... So clarifying, the money they want to raise, should include the money they will spend on buying the magazines (there is no statement saying they found them, or were given the magazines, so a cost should be involved)
Now if they are only making the count of "Field trip costs X amount of money, and given we have to make a profit of $5.5, How many must we sell?" then the equation should be n=X/5.5
Should the story be, how much money must they raise to have a profit of 5.5 on each magazine and still have enough for the field trip, then you have a different equation which varies only in adding the cost of each magazine, either case, M should be defined not as money they need to raise (cause here they will be short on their goal) but Money they must earn. And again, you should rewrite your equation to be:
M=Amount they must raise
C=Cost per magazine
n=Number of magazines
p=profit $5.5 per magazine
C+p=M/n
And rewriting the previous they should make:
n(C+p)=M -----> n(C+5.5)=M <span>m/n = 5.50 </span>
<span>m/n x n = 5.50 x n //// multiply each side by n </span>
<span>m = 5.5n</span>
Answer:
x = 1/3 ln(2)
Step-by-step explanation:
e^(3x)+6=8
Subtract 6 from each side
e^(3x)+6-6=8-6
e^(3x) = 2
Take the natural log of each side
ln (e ^3x) = ln (2)
3x = ln(2)
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 1/3 ln(2)
x = 1/3 ln(2)
