Find the mean ( average):
105 + 104 + 110 + 112 + 114 + 106 + 108 +109 = 868
Mean = 868 / 8 = 108.5

Standard deviation:
108.5 - 105 = 3.5, 3.5^2 = 12.25
108.5 - 104 = 4, 4^2 = 16
110 - 108.5 = 1.5, 1.5^2 = 2.25
112 - 108.5 = 3.5, 3.5^2 = 12.25
114 - 108.5 = 5.5, 5.5^2 = 30.25
108.5 - 106 = 2.5, 2.5^2 = 6.25
108.5 - 108 = 0.5, 0.5^2 = 0.25
109 - 108.5 = 0.5, 0.5^2 = 0.25

12.25 + 16 +2.25 + 12.25 + 30.25 +6.25+0.25+0.25 = 79.75
79.75/8 = 9.96875, SQRT(9.96875) = 3.1573

Standard Deviation = 3.1573

108.8 +/- 1.96 *(3.1573/sqrt(8) = 110.687 and 106.312

110.687 - 108.5 = 2.19
108.5 - 106.312 = 2.19
 

Margin of error = +/- 2.19

Jake plans to take a summer job at the recreation center as a lifeguard. He can be paid according to two different plans.
Jlenok [28]

Payment on Plan A = $300

x is the number of hours Jake works.

Payment on Plan B = Fixed charges + (charge per hour) × (number of hours worked)

                               = $150 + $6.25(x)

                               = 150 + 6.25x

Since, the payment on Plan B should be more than Plan A,

150 + 6.25x > 300

6.25x > 300 - 150

6.25x > 150

x > \frac{150}{6.25}

x > 24

The minimum vale for x which satisfies this inequality is 25.

Hence, x = 25.

a business want to increase its number of employees by 65% to 20,460. How many employees does the company currently have?
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

12,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the current employees be x

65% increase in number = 0.65x

If the total number of employees after the increase is 20,460, then;

x + 0.65x = 20,460

1.65x = 20,460

x = 20,460/1.65

x = 12,400

Hence the current number of employees is 12,400
