solve the following word problem. use x for the unknown value. the average cost of a car in 2013 is said to be 5 less than twice
Rashid [163]
Let the average cost of car in 2009 be $x, then the average cost of a car in 2013 is 2x - 5
25,000 = 2x - 5
2x = 25,000 + 5 = 25,005
x = 25,005/2 = $12,502.50

Which expression is the correct translation of the following word phrase?
Llana [10]
Hey, there! 

The parentheses would make it multiplication 
The word sum means add 
A number was unknown, so we will label it as "x" 

So, let's see what we're working with here! 

If you chose "Option A" the question would be "five multiplied by a number and the sum of 3" (that doesn't give you the right answer" 
For B. same thing with option A 
For "Option C" its not asking you "a number with sum of three times five" 

So, this leaves "Option D." as your answer because 3 is getting multiplied by the sum of some number and five

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

30 random samples of high school students were asked if they played a sport for their high school. Each sample was 20 students.
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

<em>a. This option is correct</em>

<em>b. This will be true only if we take the </em><em>mode</em><em> as the best representative value </em>

c. <em>This is a correct choice</em>

<em>d. This is not a correct choice</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Statistics</u>

We are given a dot plot representing 30 random sample proportions of high school students about their sports activities. Based on the data extracted from the plot, we can make some basic conclusions and, less accurately, some predictions.

From the data plot we can see that the following proportions were obtained, along with their absolute frequencies:

0.05 -> 3

0.10 -> 8

0.15 -> 7

0.20 -> 5

0.25 -> 4

0.30 -> 2

Let's select which of the following options are correct

a. A sample proportion of 0.20 means that 4 of 20 high school students responded that they play a sport.

The ratio between the sport playing students to the total of high school students is

\displaystyle \frac{4}{20}=\frac{1}{5}=0.20

Thus, this statement is correct.

b. The best prediction for the proportion of all high school students that play a sport is 0.10.

This will be true only if we take the mode as the best representative value for the whole dataset. Personally, I don't like to trust the mode as a good central tendency result, I'd prefer the mean instead.

c. The mean of the 30 sample proportions calculated to the nearest hundredth is 0.16

Computing the mean of the sample proportions

\displaystyle \bar x=\frac{\sum x_i.f_i}{\sum f_i}

\displaystyle \bar x=\frac{0.00\cdot 1+0.05\cdot 3+0.10\cdot 8+0.15\cdot 7+0.20\cdot 5+0.25\cdot 4+0.30\cdot 2}{1+3+8+7+5+4+2}

\bar x\approx 0.16

<em>This is a correct choice</em>

d. The shape of the sample distribution is fairly symmetrical

We can see the distribution if left-skewed because its peak value is not at the mean value. The mode and the mean are fairly different, thus this choice is not correct
