Mathematics
1 answer:
Pani-rosa [81]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The total amount Alex spent is $ 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The amount Alex spends on food = 2/3 of his paycheck

The amount Alex spends on coffee = $3

Therefore, we have;

Fraction of the paycheck spent on coffee = 1 - 2/3 = 1/3 of p

The  amount Alex spends on coffee = 1/3 of his paycheck

Therefore, we have;

1/3 × p = $3

p = 3 × $3 = $9

The total amount Alex spent = $ 9

The amount Alex spends on food = 2/3 × $9 = $6.

Days/ cost to rent a truck 1/34 2/50 3/66 4/82 A/ C=16d B/ C= 16d + 18 C/ C= 16d + 16 D/ C=18d + 16
Mamont248 [21]
Use the given information as (x, y) points.
You have
(1, 34)
(2, 50)
(3, 66)
(4, 82)
The difference between renting for 1 day and 2 days is 50 - 34 = 16.
The difference between renting for 2 days and 3 days is 66 - 50 = 16
The difference between renting for 3 days and 4 days is 82 - 66 = 16
For each day you rent you pay $16.
Now look at renting for 1 day.
The rental for 1 day is $16, but for 1 day you pay $34.
$34 - $16 = $18
There is an extra $18 in the rental for every day. The $18 is fixed.
That means, to rent a truck, you must pay a fixed amount of $18 plus $16 per day.

total cost = daily cost + fixed cost
total cost =       16d    +      16
c = 16d + 18

Sample size: A researcher is trying to decide how many people to survey. Which of the following sample sizes will result in a co
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a researcher is trying to decide how many people to survey.

We have confidence intervals are intervals with middle value as the mean and on either side margin of error.

Confidence interval = Mean ± Margin of error

Thus confidence interval width depends on margin of error.

Margin of error = Critical value *\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

Thus for the same confidence level and std deviation we find margin of error is inversely proportional to square root of sample size.

Hence for small n we get wide intervals.

So if sample size = 300, the researcher will get wider confidence interval

Kipish [7]

Answer:

<em>The probability of scoring two goals in both times is</em><em> 0.137 or 13.7%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Statistics show that a certain soccer player has a 63% chance of missing the goal each time he shoots.

So P(A)=0.63

Hence, the probability of getting success in his shoots will be,

P(A^c)=1-P(A)=1-0.63=0.37

The probability of scoring two goals in both times is,

=P(A^c)\cdot P(A^c)

=0.37\times 0.37

=0.137

=13.7\%
