Answer:

let x =the original price

then 116x/100=$39.32

116x=100×39.32

116x=3932

divide both sides by 116

116x/116=3932/116

x=33.89655

(2dp)

x=33.90

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

x = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

28 + x - 4 + 2x = 180

Simplify the left side

3x + 24 = 180

Subtract 24 from each side

disa [49]

Answer:

There is sufficient evidence. A further explanation is provided below.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

The alternative as well as null hypothesis will be:

$H_0:\mu = 16$

$H_a:\mu>16$

The test statistics will be:

⇒ $z = \frac{\frac{\bar x - \mu}{\sigma} }{\sqrt{n} }$

By putting the values, we get

⇒ $=\frac{\frac{16.06-16}{0.24} }{\sqrt{96} }$

⇒ $=\frac{\frac{0.06}{0.24} }{\sqrt{96} }$

⇒ $=2.45$

Or,

The p-value will be:

= 0.0071

i.e.,

⇒ $p-value< \alpha$

Thus the above is the correct answer.
