Answer:

300 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of pounds of candy worth $8 per lb mixed

Now we have total pounds = 100+x

Value of the mixture = 100(4)+8x = 8x+400

Since 7 per lb to be sold out we get

\frac{8x+400}{100+x} =7\\8x+400 = 700+7x\\x=300

300 lbs should be mixed

To test the belief that sons are taller than their​ fathers, a student randomly selects 13 fathers who have adult male children.
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

1) B. The differences are normally distributed or the sample size is large

C. The  sample size mus be large

E. The sampling method results in an independent sample

2) The null hypothesis H₀:  \bar x_1 =  \bar x_2

The alternative hypothesis Hₐ: \bar x_1 <  \bar x_2

Test statistic, t = -0.00693

p- value = 0.498

Do not reject Upper H₀ because, the P-value is greater than the level of significance. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that sons are the same height as their fathers  at 0.10 level of significance

Step-by-step explanation:

1) B. The differences are normally distributed or the sample size is large

C. The  sample size mus be large

E. The sampling method results in an independent sample

2) The null hypothesis H₀:  \bar x_1 =  \bar x_2

The alternative hypothesis Hₐ: \bar x_1 <  \bar x_2

The test statistic for t test is;

t=\dfrac{(\bar{x}_1-\bar{x}_2)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{s_{1}^{2} }{n_{1}}-\dfrac{s _{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}}

The mean

Height of Father, h₁,  Height of Son h₂

72.4,      77.5

70.6,      74.1

73.1,       75.6

69.9,      71.7

69.4,      70.5

69.4,      69.9

68.1,       68.2

68.9,      68.2

70.5,       69.3

69.4,       67.7

69.5,       67

67.2,       63.7

70.4,       65.5

\bar x_1  = 69.6      

s₁ = 1.58

\bar x_2 = 69.9

s₂ = 3.97

n₁ = 13

n₂ = 13

t=\dfrac{(69.908-69.915)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{3.97^{2}}{13}-\dfrac{1.58^{2} }{13}}}

(We reversed the values in the square root of the denominator therefore, the sign reversal)

t = -0.00693

p- value = 0.498 by graphing calculator function

P-value > α Therefore, we do not reject the null hypothesis

Do not reject Upper H₀ because, the P-value is greater than the level of significance. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that sons are the same height as their fathers  at 0.10 lvel of significance

If the car dealer pays 85% of the base price and 75% of the installed options price from the manufacturer,
stira [4]

Answer:

$18,007,50

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to calculate the 85% of the base price that the dealer pays for the car:

base price: $18,750

$18,750*85%= $15,937.5

Second, you have to calculate the 75% of the installed options price that the dealer pays:

installed options price= $2,380

$2380*75%= $1,785

Third, you have to add the 85% of the base price plus the 75% of the installed options that the dealer has to pay and you also have to add the destination charge of $285:

$15,937.5+$1,785+$285= $18,007.5

According to this, the dealer has to pay $18,007.5 for the car with a base price of $18,750 and installed options price $2380  including a destination charge of $285.
