1) Berdine's Chicken Factory has several stores in the Hilton Head, South Carolina, area. When interviewing applicants for serve

r positions, the owner would like to include information on the amount of tip a server can expect to earn per check (or bill). A study of 500 recent checks indicated the server earned the following amounts in tips per 8-hour shift. Amount of Tip ($) Number 0 up to 20 200 20 up to 50 100 50 up to 100 75 100 up to 200 75 200 or more 50 a) What is the probability of a tip of $200 or more? b) What is the probability of a tip of up to $50?

Answer:

a) 0.1 = 10% probability of a tip of $200 or more.

b) 0.4 = 40% probability of a tip of up to $50.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Distribution:

Total of 500 checks.

200 with tips in the interval of 0-20.

100 with tips in the interval of 20-50.

75 with tips in the interval of 50-100.

75 with tips in the interval of 100-200.

50 with tips of 200 or more.

a) What is the probability of a tip of $200 or more?

50 out of 500. So

p = \frac{50}{500} = 0.1

0.1 = 10% probability of a tip of $200 or more.

b) What is the probability of a tip of up to $50?

200 out of 500. So

p = \frac{200}{500} = 0.4

0.4 = 40% probability of a tip of up to $50.

A researcher claims that the mean cost of raising a child from birth to age 2 by husband­wife families in the U.S. is $13,960. A
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Yes, there enough evidence to reject the claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we need to perform a test for single mean to determine whether the  mean cost of raising a child from birth to age 2 by husband-wife families in the U.S. is $13,960.

The hypothesis is:

<em>H₀</em>: The  mean cost of raising a child from birth to age 2 by husband-wife families in the U.S. is $13,960, i.e. µ = $13,960.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The  mean cost of raising a child from birth to age 2 by husband-wife families in the U.S. is different from $13,960, i.e. µ ≠ $13,960.

The information provided is:

\ar x=13725\\\sigma=2345\\n=500\\\alpha =0.10

The test statistic is:

z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}=\frac{13725-13960}{2345/\sqrt{500}}=-2.24

The test statistic value is -2.24.

Compute the <em>p</em>-value for this test statistic value at 10% level of significance as follows:

p-value=2\times P(Z

               =2\times 0.01255\\=0.0251

Use the <em>z</em>-table.

The calculated <em>p</em>-value is, 0.0251 < 0.10, therefore the null hypothesis will be rejected.

<u>Conclusion</u>:

As the null hypothesis is rejected at 10% level of significance it can be concluded that there enough evidence to reject the claim.

The  mean cost of raising a child from birth to age 2 by husband-wife families in the U.S. is different from $13,960.

The perimeter of a school gym is 522 feet. The gym measures 80 feet wide. Determine the length of the school. PLEASE EXPLAIN THE
lidiya [134]
Total perimeter is 522 ft. I will guess the gym is a big rectangle. 

Therefore, Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W
P= 2L+ 2W

We know 80 ft wide. so now we plug and chug the equation we came up with

P=522 ft
P=2L+ 2(80) 

522=2L+ 160

L= 181

hope that helps
