Answer:

= £135

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price = 100%

Percentage increase = 20%

New price = 100% + 20% = 120%

If 120% = £162

What about 100% = ?

= (100 x 162) ÷ 120

= 16200 ÷ 120

= £135

The strength of paper used in the manufacturing of cardboard boxes (y) is related to percentage of hardwood concentration in the
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to claim that there is a significant relationship between x and y.

P-value = 0.003.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we perform a regression analysis relating x and y, we get the best fitting line with equation:

y=15.82x+92.9

and a correlation coefficient r:

r=0.693

We have to test the hypothesis, where the alternative hypothesis claims that there is a relationship between these two variables, and the null hypothesis claiming there is no relationship (meaning that the correlation is not significantly different from 0).

This can be written as:

H_0: \rho=0\\\\H_a:\rho\neq0

where ρ is the population correlation coefficient for x and y.

The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.

The sample size is n=16.

The degrees of freedom are df=14.

df=n-2=16-2=14

The test statistic can be calculated as:

t=\dfrac{r\sqrt{n-2}}{\sqrt{1-r^2}}=\dfrac{0.693\sqrt{14}}{\sqrt{1-(0.693)^2}}=\dfrac{2.593}{0.721}=3.597

For a test statistic t=2.05 and 14 degrees of freedom, the P-value is calculated as:

\text{P-value}=2\cdot P(t>3.597)=0.003

The P-value (0.003) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), so the effect is significant enough.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to claim that there is a significant relationship between x and y.

melomori [17]

Answer:

D. Swordfish treat: 20%

Lizard Lollies : 50%

Puffer pops: 30%.      

Step-by-step explanation:  

We are told that Matrix is handing out treats at a local protest to promote his new detective agency.

Since he replaces the chosen treat each time with the same treat, so number of each treat remains same and it will not affect the probability for next person to choose the treat.  

We know that \text{Probability}=\frac{\text{The number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible out comes}}.

Let us find probability of choosing each type of treat one by one.

\text{Probability of choosing swordfish treat}=\frac{\text{Number of swordfish treat}}{\text{Total number of treats}}

\text{Probability of choosing swordfish treat}=\frac{4}{4+10+6}

\text{Probability of choosing swordfish treat}=\frac{4}{20}

\text{Probability of choosing swordfish treat}=0.20

Therefore, the probability of choosing swordfish treat is 0.20 or 20%.

\text{Probability of choosing lizard Lollies}=\frac{\text{Number of lizard lollis}}{\text{Total number of treats}}    

\text{Probability of choosing lizard Lollies}=\frac{10}{20}

\text{Probability of choosing lizard Lollies}=0.50

Therefore, the probability of choosing lizard Lollies is 0.50 or 50%.

\text{Probability of choosing puffer pops}=\frac{\text{Number of puffer pops}}{\text{Total number of treats}}

\text{Probability of choosing puffer pops}=\frac{6}{20}

\text{Probability of choosing puffer pop}=0.30  

Therefore, the probability of choosing puffer pops treat is 0.30 or 30%.

Upon looking at our given choices we can see that option D is the correct choice.
