Answer:

Rs 800

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling Price =Rs640

Loss=20%

Let the cost price of the watch be Rs x.

SP=CP-20%of CP

or, 640=x-x/5

or, 640=4x/5

or, 4x=640*5

or,x=3200/4

Therefore, x=Rs 800. The cost price of the watch is Rs 800.

Answer:

the standard error of the proportion is 0.0272

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that if the sample size is greater than 5% of the entire population, a finite population correction factor (fpc) is multiplied with the standard error :

fpc = $\sqrt{\frac{N -n}{N -1} }$

We know that N = 250 n = 91, replacing:

fpc = $\sqrt{\frac{250 - 91}{250 -1} }$

fpc = 0.799

Now, the formula would then be:

SE = $\sqrt{\frac{p * (1 -p)}{n} }$ *fpc

Now replacing, knowing that p = 0.12

SE= $\sqrt{\frac{0.12 * (1 - 0.12)}{91} }$ *0.799

SE = 0.0272

So the standard error of the proportion is 0.0272
