Answer:

The confidence interval for this proportion = (0.09, 0.13)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval for Proportion =

p ± z ×√p(1 - p/n)

p = proportion = x /n

x = 71

n = 635

p = 71/635

p = 0.1118110236

p ≈ 0.1118

z score for 90% confidence interval = 1.645

Confidence Interval =

0.1118 ± 1.645 × √0.1118 (1 - 0.1118)/635

0.1118 ± 1.645 × √0.09930076/635

0.1118 ± 1.645 × √0.0001563791

0.1118 ± 1.645 × 0.0125051629

0.1118 ± 0.020570993

Confidence Interval =

0.1118 - 0.020570993

= 0.091229007

Approximately to the nearest hundredth ≈ 0.09

0.1118 + 0.020570993

= 0.132370993

Approximately to the nearest hundredth = 0.13

Therefore, the confidence interval for this proportion = (0.09, 0.13)

Answer:

105 shifts

Step-by-step explanation:

Hourly net rate of pay = $12

1 shift = 8 hours

⇒ net pay per shift = $12 × 8 = $96

Total cost  = tuition + residence + books

                  = $4500 + $4800 + $700

                  = $10,000

To calculate how many shifts Joanne needs to work, divide the total cost by the pay per shift and round it up:

Number of shifts = total cost ÷ net pay per shift

                            = $10,000 ÷ $96

                            = 104.1666666...

                            = 105 shifts

<u>Note</u>: we need to round up, as if Joanne works 104 shifts, she will earn $9,984 which is not quite enough to pay for tuition, residence and books.

20. A frock is marked Rs. 228 at a discount of 20% is given on it. What is the discount and
Darina [25.2K]

Answer and step-by-step explanation:

20. Because the discount is 20% of the given price so the discount would be"

228/100*20

= 45.6 Rs

Its selling price would be:

228 + 45.6 = 273.6 Rs

21. Sales tax would be:

450/100*5

= 22.5 Rs

Total price in bill = 22.5 + 450 = 472.5 Rs

22. 10% tax of 3300 would be:

3300/100*10 = 330 Rs

Price before tax = 3300 - 330 = 2970 Rs

23. He spent in total of:

2500 + 500 = 3000Rs

He sold for 3300 Rs

He gain 3300 - 3000 = 300 Rs profit

His loss gain percent = 3300/3000 * 100 = 110%

24. On the first bike, he earn:

2500/100*20 = 500 Rs

On the second bike, he lose:

2500/100*25 = 625 Rs

He lose in total of 625 -500 = 125 Rs

his loss percentage = (2500+500) + (2500 - 625) / 5000* 100

= 100% - (2500+500) + (2500 - 625) / 5000* 100

= 100% - 97.5%

He lose 2.5% money

Hope this helped :3

So yeah can anyone help me out be a tone
Brut [27]

Answer:

p = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-3( 2+4p) + 7 = 49

Subtract 7 from each side

-3( 2+4p) + 7 -7= 49-7

-3( 2+4p)  = 42

Divide by -3

-3( 2+4p) /-3 = 42/-3

( 2+4p)  = -14

Subtract 2 from each side

2+4p-2 = -14-2

4p = -16

Divide by 4

4p/4 = -16/4

p = -4
