x = original price, or 100%

if we take off 25% from 100% what's left is 75%, that's the discounted price.

let's then take 10% of that.

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{75\% of "x"}}{\left( \cfrac{75}{100} \right)x\implies 0.75x} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{10\% of 0.75x}}{\left( \cfrac{10}{100} \right)0.75x\implies 0.075x}~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{total percent savings}}{0.75x-0.075x\implies 0.675x} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf \stackrel{\textit{changing that to percent format}}{0.675\cdot 100\implies 67.5\%}

Mary wants to buy one large pizza, one medium pizza, and three drinks. The drinks cost $p$ dollars each, the medium pizza costs
Korolek [52]

Answer:

30-8p

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent cost of each drink.

We have been given that the medium pizza costs two times as much as one drink, so the cost of medium pizza would be 2p.

We are also told that the large pizza costs three times as much as one drink,  so the cost of la pizza would be 3p.

We have been given that Mary wants to buy one large pizza, one medium pizza, and three drinks.

Since the cost of one drink is p, so cost of 3 three drinks would be 3p.

The total cost of one large pizza, one medium pizza, and three drinks would be 2p+3p+3p=8p

Mary started with $30, so amount left after all of her purchases would be 30 minus total cost of all purchases.

30-8p

Therefore, Mary will have 30-8p dollars left after making all of her purchases.

In 1990, 1000 adults were randomly selected and each was asked if they smoked, 300
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

 The proportion of smokers was higher in 1990 than in 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

The total number of sample 1 (n1) = 1000

Total  sample 2 number  (n2) = 2000

The number of favourable events (X1) = 300

The number of favourable events (X2) = 500

so,

p₁ = X₁/n₁ = 300/1000 = 0.3

p₂ = X₂/n₂ =500/2000 =0.25

α = 0.05

We are interested in testing the hypothesis.

The  hypothesis (Null) ....>  H₀ : p₁ = p₂

Alternate hypothesis------ > H₁ : p₁ > p₂

Thus,

P = X₁ + X₂/ n₁ + n₂

P =300 + 500/1000 +2000

P =800/3000

=0.2667

Now,

Z₀ = P₁ - P₂/√ P (1 -P) (1/n₁ + 1/n₂)

Z₀ =  0.3 - 0.25/√0.2667  (1 - 0.2667) (1/1000 + 1/2000)

Z₀ = 0.4999999999999999/√ 0.2667 (0.7333000000000001) (0.001 +0.0005)

Then,

Z₀ = 0.4999999999999999/√0.00029335666500000004

Z₀ = 2.9193

so,

zα/2 = z0.05/2 =z0.025

zα/2 = 1.6448536269514722

Now, we apply the decision rule:

Decision Rule: Reject the null hypothesis if the statistic value test is higher than the critical value 1.6448536269514722

The statistic value, 2.9193 is greater than the critical value 1.6448536269514722,  then we will reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore, the proportion of smokers was higher in 1990 than in 2000
