A Drama club has 40 members. The number of girls is 5 less then 2 times the number of boys. How many members are boys? girls?

1 answer:

4 0

We can write b= boys, and g= girls

we know that girls are equal g=(2*b-5)
we also know that b+g=40
we will replace girls with the above equation and get
b+ (2*b-5) = 40 , 2*b=2b
b+2b= 40+5
3b=45, divide everything by 5
b=15
girls are 2*15-5=25
15+25=40

Elise is a project manager

gregori [183]

Answer:

£11.85

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, we are told that:

In 2016 she earned a monthly salary of £2,100

In 2017 she had a 3% raise

This means 3% of £2,100

3/100×£2,100 = £63

This means her salary for 2017 =

£63 + £2,100 =£2,163

Step 2

We are told in the question that she worked 42 hours per week for 45 weeks in 2017

Since her monthly pay for 2017 = £2,163

She worked 42 hours per week

There are 7 days in one week

The number of hours she worked per day = 42 hours ÷ 7 = 6 hours per day

4.345 weeks= 1 month

The number of hours she worked per month = 42 hours × 4.345 weeks

= 182.49 hours.

We can say that for 182.49 hours she was paid = £2,163

Her average pay per hour is calculated as:

If 182.49 hours = £2,163

1 hour = represented by Y

Cross multiply

182.49Y = £2,163

Y = £2,163 ÷ 182.49

Y = £11.852704258

Approximately = £11.85

Therefore, Elise Average pay per hour for the year = £11.85

According to the Central Limit Theorem, which statements(s) are TRUE. There may be more than 1 correct answer. A. An increase in

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Options A, B and C are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$
