Because the ratio of women to children is 10:1, double the ratio of men to women so the women are both 10:

Men to women becomes 8:10

Now total the 3 ratios: 8 for men, 10, for women and 9 for children:

8 + 10 + 9 = 27

Divide total people by that number:

270/27 = 10

Multiply 10 by each ratio:

Men = 8 * 10 = 80

Women = 10 * 10 = 100

Children = 9 *10 = 90



There is 80 men.

Answer:

There are 80 men on the train.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! I just completed this question on MathsWatch so here is my explanation

Step 1:

The first thing you need to do is work out the ratio of men to women to children  on the train which is

8:10:9

Step 2:

8+10+9= 27

270÷27=10

Step 3:

We now know that 1 in the ratio is equal to 10 people.

To work out the amount of men we need to multiply 10 by 8

10×8=80

These means there is 80 men on the train

suter [353]

Answer:

a. [6.6350,7.3950]

b. ME=0.5150

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Given that n=40, \bar x=6.88 and that:z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05}=1.645

The required 90% confidence interval can be calculated as:

\bar x\pm(margin \ of \ error)\\\\\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\6.88\pm(1.645\times \frac{1.98}{\sqrt{40}})\\\\=[6.3650,7.3950]

Hence, the 90% confidence interval for the population mean cash value of this crop is [6.6350,7.3950]

b. The margin of error at 90% confidence interval is calculated as:

ME= z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=(1.645\times \frac{1.98}{\sqrt{40}})\\\\=0.5150

Hence, the margin of error is 0.5150
