60 flowers. She usually buys 12 flowers, and there is a 20% discount, so 20%=1/5, so 12*5=60

Make a proportion to find the cost for 12 flowers based on the price for 4 flowers. 
4/10=12/x
Cross multiply and you get 4x=120 Divide 4 on both sides of the equation. 
X is $30.
Then, you find the unit price of 1 flower by dividing 10 by 4. Each flower cost $2.50. 
Convert 20% to decimal which is 0.2.
Multiply 0.2 by 2.5 and you get 0.5. Subtract 0.5 from 2.5 to get 2. 
Write an equation using the information: $2 for each flower and you only have $30 to spend. 
The equation is 2x=30. Divide 2 on both sides and you get x=15 flowers

Stels [109]

Answer: 90% confidence interval is; ( - 0.0516, 0.3752 )

 

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;  

n1 = 72, n2 = 17

P1 = 54 / 72 = 0.75

P2 = 10 / 17 = 0.5882

so

P_good = 0.75

P_bad = 0.5882

standard ERRROR will be;

SE = √[(0.75×(1-0.75)/72) + (0.5882×(1-0.5882)/17)]

SE = √( 0.002604 + 0.01424)

SE = 0.12978

given confidence interval = 90%

significance level a = (1 - 90/100) = 0.1, |Z( 0.1/2=0.05)| = 1.645   { from standard normal table}

so

93% CI is;

(0.75 - 0.5882) - 1.645×0.12978 <P_good - P_bad<  (0.75 - 0.5882) + 1.645×0.12978

⇒0.1618 - 0.2134 <P_good - P_bad<  0.1618 + 0.2134

⇒ - 0.0516  <P_good - P_bad< 0.3752

Therefore 90% confidence interval is; ( - 0.0516, 0.3752 )
