Answer:

89 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniforms come in packs of 8, and the store plans to purchase 56 packs of uniforms.

This means

1 pack = 8 uniforms

56 packs = x uniforms

Cross Multiply

x = 56 × 8 uniforms

x = 448 uniforms

The plan is to hand out 5 uniforms to every employee one for each day or the week.

Hence, the number of employees that the store can give can uniforms to is calculated as:

5 uniforms = 1 employee

448 uniforms = x employees

Cross Multiply

5x = 448 × 1 employee

x = 448/5

x = 89.6 employees.

Since a person cannot be represented by decimal, the store can give uniforms to 89 employees

A nutrition laboratory wants to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean sodium content of "reduced sodium" hot dogs. A
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

n > 96

Therefore, the number of samples should be more than 96 for the width of their confidence interval to be no more than 10mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Standard deviation r= 25mg

Width of confidence interval w= 10mg

Confidence interval of 95%

Margin of error E = w/2 = 10mg/2 = 5mg

Z at 95% = 1.96

Margin of error E = Z(r/√n)

n = (Z×r/E)^2

n = (1.96 × 25/5)^2

n = (9.8)^2

n = 96.04

n > 96

Therefore, the number of samples should be more than 96 for the width of their confidence interval to be no more than 10mg

You decide to put $2,000 in a savings account to save for a $3,000 downpayment on a new car. If the account has an interest rate
DanielleElmas [232]

It takes 10.155 years until you have $3,000 ⇒ 3rd

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for compound interest, including principal sum is:

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt} , where

  • A is the future value of the investment/loan, including interest
  • P is the principal investment amount  
  • r is the annual interest rate (decimal)
  • n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t
  • t is the time the money is invested or borrowed for

∵ You decide to put $2,000 in a savings account

∴ P = 2000

∵ You want to save for $3,000

∴ A = 3000

∵ The account has an interest rate of 4% per year and is

   compounded monthly

∴ r = 4% = 4 ÷ 100 = 0.04

∴ n = 12 ⇒ compounded monthly

- Substitute all of these values in the formula above to find t

∵ 3000=2000(1+\frac{0.04}{12})^{12t}

- Divide both sides by 2000

∴ 1.5=(1+\frac{1}{300})^{12t}

∴ 1.5=(1\frac{1}{300})^{12t}

- Change the mixed number to an improper fraction

∴ (1.5)=(\frac{301}{300})^{12t}

- Insert ㏒ for both sides

∴ log(1.5)=log(\frac{301}{300})^{12t}

- Remember log(a)^{n}=nlog(a)

∴ log(1.5)=(12t)log(\frac{301}{300})

- Divide both sides by log(\frac{301}{300})

∴ 121.84 = 12 t

- Divide both sides by 12

∴ 10.155 = t

It takes 10.155 years until you have $3,000
