Question options:

The standard deviation is 0.0998. The 10% condition is not met because there are less than 250 fish in the river.

The standard deviation is 0.0998. The 10% condition is met because it is very likely there are more than 250 fish in the river.

The standard deviation is 0.9002. The 10% condition is met because it is very likely there are more than 250 fish in the river.

The standard deviation is 0.9002. The 10% condition is not met because there are less than 250 fish in the river.

We are unable to determine the standard deviation because we do not know the sample mean. The 10% condition is met because it is very likely there are more than 250 fish in the river

Answer:

The standard deviation is 0.0998. The 10% condition is met because it is very likely there are more than 250 fish in the river

Explanation:

Formula to calculate standard deviation = √p(1-p)/n

Given p= population proportion

n= sample size

From the question,

We are given p(population proportion of catfish in the river)= 0.47

n(sample size of fish collected from river) = 25

The standard deviation using the formula above = √0.47(1-0.47)/25

= 0.0998

The 10% condition demands that a sample size be not less than 10% of the population

To check if the 10% condition was met, we know that a river will likely have up to 250 fish in it and so,

10% of 250= 0.10×250=25 fish

Therefore the option B chosen is correct

Answer:

  $4884.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount in a simple interest account is given by the formula ...

  A = P(1 +rt)

Here, we have principal P=$4500, interest rate r=0.0285, and time t=3. Then the amount in the savings account will be ...

  A = $4500(1 +.0285·3) = $4500·1.0855 = $4884.75

vova2212 [387]
2 * 6^(n-1)
a(sub4) = 2 * 6^(4-1)
a(sub4) = 2 * 6^3
a(sub4) = 2 * 216
a(sub4) = 432
