Answer:

<h2>$10.12</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that the cost of binoculars is $155.75

and also the sales tax is 6.5%

Step two:

We want to first solve for the sales tax which is 6.5% of  $155.75

=6.5/100* 155.75

=0.065*155.75

=10.12

Nick will pay a tax of $10.12

Also Nick will pay a total amount of

= 155.75+10.12

=$165.87

Suppose that the hourly wages of fast food workers are normally distributed with an unknown mean and standard deviation. The wag
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: 1.303639

Step-by-step explanation:

The t-score for a level of confidence (1-\alpha) is given by :_

t_{(df,\alpha/2)}, where df is the degree of freedom and \alpha is the significance level.

Given : Level of significance : 1-\alpha:0.80

Then , significance level : \alpha: 1-0.80=0.20

Sample size : n=40

Then , the degree of freedom for t-distribution: df=n-1=40-1=39

Using the normal t-distribution table, we have

t_{(df,\alpha/2)}=t_{39,0.10}=1.303639

Thus, the t-score should be used to find the 80% confidence interval for the population mean =1.303639

Solve the equation:<br> 5|2x-7|=20
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

x = \frac{11}{2}, \frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, isolate the absolute value:

5|2x - 7| = 20

divide both sides by 5:

|2x - 7| = 4

break into 2 equations:

2x - 7 = 4, 2x - 7 = -4

solve both equations and collect solutions:

2x = 11, 2x = 3

x = \frac{11}{2}, \frac{3}{2}

The function ​P(x)equals0.35xnegative 76 models the relationship between the number of pretzels x that a certain vendor sells an
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

P(X=700) =0.35*700 -76= 169

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following profit function:

P(X) = 0.35 X -76

And we are interested on find the profit after selling 700 pretzels, so we just need to replace X=700 into the profit function like this:

P(X=700) =0.35*700 -76= 169

The profit function is on the figure attached. We see that for 0<X<217 we have negative profits, and for X>217 we will have positive values for the profit. And also we can see that for X=700 we have a profit of approximately 169.
