60% choose band......40% choose chorus

30% who are taking band are girls......30% of 60% is (0.3 * 0.6) = 0.18 or 18%..so 18% are girls.
70% who take chorus are girls....70% of 40% is (0.7 * 0.4) = 0.28 or 28%...so 28% are girls.

18% + 28%  = 46%....so a total of 46% taking band and chorus are girls.....so that leaves (100% - 46%) = 54% ( or 0.54) are boys

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer: ($3.532, $4.166)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Significance level : \alpha: 1-0.90=0.10

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=1.645

Sample size : n= 157

Sample mean : \overline{x}=\$\ 3.849

Standard deviation : \sigma= \$\ 2.421

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :_

\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

\text{i.e. }\$\ 3.849\pm (1.64)\dfrac{2.421}{\sqrt{157}}\\\\\approx\$\ 3.849\pm0.317\\\\=(\$\ 3.849-0.317,\$\ 3.849+0.317)=(\$\ 3.532,\$\ 4.166)

Hence, the 0% confidence interval for the average tip given at this restaurant = ($3.532, $4.166)

-3(6v-4)+6v=-2(v+3) HOW CAN I SIMPLIFY THIS
ddd [48]
Subtract 12 from each side
so it should look like this
-12v=-2v-18
now add 2v to each side
so it should look like this
-10v=-18
now divdie each side by -10
and you should get
v=9/5 or 1 4/5
