Turn 15/4 Into a decimal show your work

So you have to decrease £30 by 20%

To do this, an easy way would be to first take away 100% from 20% because you are DECREASING :
100 - 20 = 80

Then divide your answer by 100 :
80 / 100 = 0.8

This means 0.8 is going to be your multiplier so you do
0.8 * 30 = 24

Answer = £24

Would a teaspoon be a good way to measure the capacity of a milk carton

Natali [406]

No, a teaspoon is too small to measure the capacity of a milk carton. You would use a quart to measure the capacity of a gallon.

Hope this helps :)

The 95% confidence interval of the population mean, in years, is (4.3, 5.3). 4 years is not part of the confidence interval, which means that it contradicts the fact that 39% of students get their college degree in four years.

-----------------------------

To solve this question, we need to find the confidence interval for the amount of time it takes the students to get the degree.

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

-----------------------------

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 80 - 1 = 79

-----------------------------

95% confidence interval

Standard level of confidence, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 79 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975$ . So we have T = 1.9905.

-----------------------------

The margin of error is:

$M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.9905\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{80}} = 0.5$

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

-----------------------------

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 4.8 - 0.3 = 4.3 years.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 4.8 + 0.3 = 5.3 years.

-----------------------------

The 95% confidence interval of the population mean, in years, is (4.3, 5.3). 4 years is not part of the confidence interval, which means that it contradicts the fact that 39% of students get their college degree in four years.

The value of the composite function (f - g)(x) is 5x - 25

<h3>How to determine the function (f - g)(x)?</h3>

The function definitions are given as:

f(x) = 15x + 25

g(x) = 10x + 50

The function (f - g)(x) is calculated using

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

This gives

(f - g)(x) = 15x + 25 - 10x - 50

Evaluate the like terms

(f - g)(x) = 5x - 25

Hence, the value of the composite function (f - g)(x) is 5x - 25

Cynthia was offered two different jobs for the summer. working as a camp counselor, she will earn $15 per hour plus an additional $25 bonus. her earnings after x hours can be represented by the function f(x) = 15x + 25. working as a lifeguard, Cynthia will earn $10 per hour and an additional $50 bonus. her earnings after x hours can be represented by the function g(x) = 10x + 50. the arithmetic operation (f - g)x can be used to determine the difference in the salary Cynthia will earn working as a camp counselor instead of a lifeguard after x hours. what is the function (f - g)x?
