Answer:

£2.38

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios:

 £1.40       2.5 kg

----------- = ------------

     c          4.25 kg

Cross multiplying, we get:

(£1.40)(4.25 kg) = (2.5 kg*c), or

       (£1.40)(4.25 kg)

c = -------------------------- =  £2.38

             2.5 kg

Mary wants to fill in a cylinder vase. At the flower store they told her that the vase should be filled 3/4 for the flowers to
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

About 376.99 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Cylinder has a volume of:

V=\pi r^2h

Where

V is the volume

r is the radius

h is the height

We need to find the volume of the cylinder, then multiply that answer by 3/4 to get the solution to this problem. First, the full volume of the cylinder.

Given

r = 4

h = 10

So,

V=\pi r^2h\\V=\pi (4)^2 (10)\\V=502.65

Now, we multiply by 3/4:

502.65*\frac{3}{4}=376.99

Mary should be vase to 376.99 cubic inches

How does the sample size affect the validity of an empirical​ argument? A. The larger the sample size the better. B. The smaller
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

A. The larger the sample size the better.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

In this question:

We have to look at the standard error, which is:

s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

This means that an increase in the sample size reduces the standard error, and thus, the larger the sample size the better, and the correct answer is given by option a.

In the collection of beads, StartFraction 4 Over 20 EndFraction are blue. Which model shows the percent of beads that are blue?
jolli1 [7]

Option B model shows the percent of beads that are blue.

Solution:

Fraction of beads blue = \frac{4}{20}

To convert it into percent multiply the fraction by 100.

$\text {Percent of} \ \frac{4}{20}=\frac{4}{20}\times 100\%

                     $=\frac{4\times 100}{20} \%

Cancel the common factors, we get

                    = 20%

                    $=\frac{20}{100}

This means total number of boxes 100 and shaded in blue color 20.

Therefore option 2 represents \frac{20}{100}.

Hence option B model shows the percent of beads that are blue.
