Answer:

a) -0.75

b) -1.5

c) -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks to convert a given value to z score with different sample sizes.

<u>We are given:</u>

Population Mean = u = 40

and

Standard deviation = s = 8

The task is to convert 34 to z-score using 3 different sample sizes.

For a given sample size "n", the formula to calculate the z-score is:

z=\frac{x-u}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }

For x = 34 and n=1, we get:

z-score=\frac{34-40}{\frac{8}{\sqrt{1} } } = -0.75

For x = 34 and n = 4, we get:

z-score=\frac{34-40}{\frac{8}{\sqrt{4} } } = -1.5

For x = 34 and n = 16, we get:

z-score=\frac{34-40}{\frac{8}{\sqrt{16} } } = -3

From here we can see that increasing the sample sizes increases the magnitude of z-score.

Answer:

Future value of annuity (FV) = $13,782.12 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Periodic payment p = $500

Interest rate r = 13% = 13%/4 = 0.0325 (Quarterly)

Number of period n = 5 x 4 = 20 quarter

Find:

Future value of annuity (FV)

Computation:

Future\ value\ of\ annuity\ (FV)=p[\frac{(1+r)^n-1}{r} ] \\\\Future\ value\ of\ annuity\ (FV)=500[\frac{(1+0.0325)^{20}-1}{0.0325} ] \\\\Future\ value\ of\ annuity\ (FV)=13,782.1219 \\\\

Future value of annuity (FV) = $13,782.12 (Approx)
