A girl scout was selling boxes of cookies. In a month, she sold both boxes of chocolate chip cookies ($1.25 each) and boxes of p

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Number of plain cookie boxes sold = 785 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Cost of a chocolate chip cookie box = $1.25

Cost of a plain cookie box = $0.75

Total number of boxes sold = 1585

Total cost of the sold boxes = $1588.75

Let, number of plain cookie boxes sold = x

Number of chocolate chip cookie boxes sold = 1585 - x

So,

Total cost = total cost of the sold plain cookie boxes + total cost of the sold chocolate chip cookie boxes

$1588.75 = x ($0.75) + (1585 - x) ($1.25)

1588.75 = 0.75 x + 1981.25 - 1.25 x

0.5 x = 392.5

Therefore,

<u>Number of plain cookie boxes sold: x = 392.5 ÷ 0.5 = 785 boxes</u>

Score Frequency

RUDIKE [14]

Scores on an AP Exam at a local high school are recorded in the table. What was the average score?

Answer: D) 4.266 is correct

Explanation:

We are given the below frequency table:

Score Frequency

1 | 0

2 | 3

3 | 4

4 | 16

5 | 22

Let's denote the score by $x$ and frequency by $f$ .

The average formula is:

$Average=\frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}$

$=\frac{(1\times0) + (2\times3)+(3\times4) +(4\times16) + (5\times22)}{0+3+4+16+22}$

$=\frac{0+6+12+64+110}{45}$

$=\frac{192}{45}=4.267$

Therefore, the average score was 4.267

Hence the option D) 4.266

The sum of the expression (–x² + x) and (x² – 3x – 1) will be –2x – 1. Then the correct option is D.

<h3>What is Algebra?</h3>

The analysis of mathematical representations is algebra, and the handling of those symbols is logic.

The expression can be written as

(–x² + x) and (x² – 3x – 1)

Then the sum of the expression (–x² + x) and (x² – 3x – 1) will be

(–x² + x) + (x² – 3x – 1) = –2x – 1

Then the correct option is D.

Suppose 52% of the population has a college degree. If a random sample of size 563563 is selected, what is the probability that

amm1812

Answer:

The value is $P(| \^ p - p| < 0.05 ) = 0.9822$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population proportion is $p = 0.52$

The sample size is n = 563

Generally the population mean of the sampling distribution is mathematically represented as

$\mu_{x} = p = 0.52$

Generally the standard deviation of the sampling distribution is mathematically evaluated as

$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{ p(1- p)}{n} }$

=> $\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{ 0.52 (1- 0.52 )}{563} }$

=> $\sigma = 0.02106$

Generally the probability that the proportion of persons with a college degree will differ from the population proportion by less than 5% is mathematically represented as

$P(| \^ p - p| < 0.05 ) = P( - (0.05 - 0.52 ) < \^ p < (0.05 + 0.52 ))$

Here $\^ p$ is the sample proportion of persons with a college degree.

So

$P( - (0.05 - 0.52 ) < \^ p < (0.05 + 0.52 )) = P(\frac{[[0.05 -0.52]]- 0.52}{0.02106} < \frac{[\^p - p] - p}{\sigma } < \frac{[[0.05 -0.52]] + 0.52}{0.02106} )$
