Answer:

Answer: D. Jake paid his loan in 12 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Jake took out an interest-free loan of $2,401.56 from the bank to buy a car.

Since he has to pay no interest for the loan, the monthly payments are totally used to cover the amount of the loan.

He paid the bank $200.13 each month, thus the total months needed to pay the loan is:

$\frac{\$2,401.56 }{\$200.13}=12$

Answer: D. Jake paid his loan in 12 months

You are an assistant director of the alumni association at a local university. You attend a presentation given by the university

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

(0.102, -0.062)

Step-by-step explanation:

sample size in 2018 = n1 = 216

sample size in 2017 = n2 = 200

number of people who went for another degree in 2018 = x1 = 54

number of people who went for another degree in 2017 = x2 = 46

p1 = x1/n1 = 0.25

p2 = x2/n2 = 0.23

At 95% confidence level, z critical = 1.96

now we have to solve for the confidence interval =

$0.25 -0.23 ± 1.96*\sqrt{((1 - 0.25) * 0.25)/216 + ((1 - 0.23) *0.23/200}$

= 0.02 ± 1.96 * 0.042

= 0.02 + 0.082 = 0.102

= 0.02 - 0.082 = -0.062

There is 95% confidence that there is a difference that lies between - 0.062 and 0.102 on the proportion of students who continued their education in the years, 2017 and 2018.

There is no significant difference between the two.

P-21=34 P=34-21 P=13 What is the value of p?

vredina [299]

Simplifying

P + -21 + -21 = 34 + -21

-21 + -21 + P = 34 + -21

Combine like terms: -21 + -21 = -42

-42 + P = 34 + -21

Combine like terms: 34 + -21 = 13

-42 + P = 13

Solving

-42 + P = 13

Solving for variable 'P'.

Move all terms containing P to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '42' to each side of the equation.

-42 + 42 + P = 13 + 42

Combine like terms: -42 + 42 = 0

0 + P = 13 + 42

P = 13 + 42

Combine like terms: 13 + 42 = 55

P = 55

Simplifying

P = 55
