Answer:

84 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

use x to represent the amount of money Laura had when she started shopping.

use y to represent the amount of money she had left after buying a pair of shorts.

You can create these two equations:

3/4x=y

2/3x=42

now, subsitute the value of y into the second equation.

2/3(3/4x)=42

1/2x=42

x=84

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: a) 0.84  b) 0.67  c) 1.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the standard normal distribution table for z-value , we have

(a) The value of z_{\alpha} would result in a 80% one-sided confidence interval : z_{(1-0.80)}=z_{0.20}=0.8416\approx0.84

(b) The value of z_{\alpha} would result in a 85% one-sided confidence interval : z_{(1-0.85)}=z_{0.25}=0.6744897\approx0.67

(c) The value of z_{\alpha} would result in a 90% one-sided confidence interval : z_{(1-0.90)}=z_{0.10}=1.2815515\approx1.28
