Answer:

The average number of hours slept per night during the school year by these 150 college​ students is 7.3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population mean (<em>μ</em>) is:

CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In this question we need to compute the average number of hours slept per night during the school year for these 150 college​ students.

To compute the value of the sample mean the formula is:

\bar x=\frac{UL+LL}{2}

Th 95% confidence interval for estimating the average number of hours a college student sleeps per night during the school year is:

CI = (7.1 hours, 7.5 hours)

Compute the value of sample mean as follows:

\bar x=\frac{UL+LL}{2}

  =\frac{7.5+7.1}{2}

  =\frac{14.6}{2}

  =7.3

Thus, the average number of hours slept per night during the school year by these 150 college​ students is 7.3 hours.

Change each of the fractions into decimals.

1/8 becomes 0.125

-1/7 becomes -0.143

and -0.02555

0.2

In order from least to greatest,

-0.143, -0.02555, 0.125, 0.2

OR

Jenny's bakery sells carrot muffins at 2 dollars each. The electricity to run the over is over 120 dollars per day and the cost
g100num [7]

Answer:

200 muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of each muffin = $2

The cost price of each muffin = $1.40

The price of electricity = $120

If the number of muffins that Jenny sells in a day is x, then, Jenny's total cost in a day is:

120 + (1.4 * x) = 120 + 1.4x

and the total sales earnings in a day for x muffins will be:

2 * x = 2x

To break even, the total costs in a day must equal to the total earnings. That is;

2x =  120 + 1.4x

Solving this:

2x - 1.4x = 120\\\\\\0.6x = 120\\\\\\x = 120/0.6\\\\\\x = 200

She must sell 200 muffins in a day to break even.
