Answer:

  20%

450 high school freshmen were randomly selected for a national survey. Among survey participants, the mean grade-point average (

Answer:

The margin of error is of 0.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.7}{2} = 0.15

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a pvalue of 1 - 0.15 = 0.85, so Z = 1.037.

The margin of error is of:

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Standard deviation was 0.21.

This means that \sigma = 0.21

Sample of 450:

This means that n = 450

What is the margin of error, assuming a 70% confidence level, to the nearest hundredth?

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

M = 1.037\frac{0.21}{\sqrt{450}}

M = 0.01

The margin of error is of 0.01.

7) David bought a computer that was 20% off the regular price of $1080. If an 8% sales tax was added to the cost of the computer
Aneli [31]
Hello there! I can help you!

7. Okay. So the computer was originally $1,080, and the discount is 20%, but David would still have to pay 80% of the original price. To find the sale price, let's multiply. 1,080 * 80% (0.8) is 864. The sale price of the compuet is $864, but now we must add the sales tax to find the total price. We will multiply by 108%, because 100% (representing the price + 8% is 108%, and doing this will get us stright to the total price. 864 * 108% (1.08) is 933.12. There. David paid a total price of $933.12 for the computer.

8. Okay. So we are looking for the amount of discount for the sweater Suzanne bought. First off, let's subtract the prices to find the difference. 40 - 25 is 15. Now, let's divide that by 40 (the original price) to find the discount. 15/40 is 0.375. Or 37.5% when converted into a percentage. There. Suzanne received a 37.5% discount on the sweater when she bought it.

9. So the car was bought for x dollars. 0.88 represents 88%, so the value of the car is 88% of the previous year. An expression that is a way to describe the change in car value is x * (100 - 0.12)^t, because you car loses 12% of the remaining value each year, which leaves 88% of it remaining, and having the t as the exponent represents the number of years. That expression helps find the value of the car currently and can help you compare the values.

In Kailah's class the ratio of girls to boys is 13 to 8. If there were 16 boys, how many girls will there be?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

I believe that the answer is 26

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of girls to boys is 13 to 8 so there are 13 girls for every 8 boys so if there are 16 boys (8X2) then there are 26 girls (13X2)
