22 complete cars and half of one car were washed on Sunday.

<u>Solution: </u>

Given that  

Drama club held a car wash on Saturday and Sunday.

Total car washed on Saturday and Sunday = 60  

Lost 40 \% can on Sunday.

Need to calculate number of car washed on Sunday.

Let assume number of cars they washed on Saturday = x

As they lost 40\% of cars on the Sunday

Number of cars washed on Sunday = Car washed on Saturday – 40\% of car washed on Saturday

\Rightarrow x-40 \% \text { of } x=\mathrm{x}-0.40 x=0.60 x

Total number of cars washed on Saturday and Sunday = Number of cars washed on Saturday + Number of cars washed on Sunday  

\begin{array}{l}{\Rightarrow 60=x+0.60 x} \\\\ {\Rightarrow 60=1.6 x} \\\\ {\Rightarrow x=\frac{60}{1.6}=37.5}\end{array}

So car washed on Sunday = 0.60 x=0.60 \times 37.5=22.5 \mathrm{ cars}

That is 22 complete cars and half of one car were washed on Sunday.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Total possible number of outcomes = C(24,6) [24 choose 6]

=24!/(6!18!)

= 134596

Out of which there is only one winning combination.

Therefore we conclude:

P(win 20000)=1/134596

P(lose 1)=134595/134596

and hence the expected value is:

20000*(1/134596)+(-1)*(134595/134596)

=-114595/134596

=-0.8514 (rounded to four places after decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

Alenkinab [10]
Given:
n = 27, sample size
df = n-1 = 26, degrees of freedom
xb = 11.8, sample mean
s = 2.3, sample standard deviation.

Because population statistics are not known, we should use the Student's t-distribution.
At 99% confidence interval, the t-value = 2.779 (from tables).
The confidence interval is
11.8 +/- 2.779*(2.3/√(27)) = 11.8 +/- 1.23 = (10.57, 13.03)

Answer: (10.6, 13.0) to the nearest tenth
