Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval for the income of store managers in the retail industry is ($44,846, $45,994), having a margin of error of $574.

b) The interval mean that we are 95% sure that the true mean income of all store managers in the retail industry is between $44,846 and $45,994.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

We have to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a p-value of 1 - 0.025 = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96\frac{2050}{\sqrt{49}} = 574

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 45420 - 574 = $44,846.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 45420 + 574 = $45,994.

The 95% confidence interval for the income of store managers in the retail industry is ($44,846, $45,994), having a margin of error of $574.

Question b:

The interval mean that we are 95% sure that the true mean income of all store managers in the retail industry is between $44,846 and $45,994.

Hint: Use decimal concept.

We know that, 1 rupee = 100 paise. We can reframe these questions as follows:

18 rupees 9 paise from 75 rupees 80 paise

18 rupees 9 paise can be represented as 18.09 rupees and 75 rupees 80 paise can be represented as 75.80 rupees. Now, on subtracting we’ll get,

75.80−18.09−−−−−− 57.71

Which means 57 rupees 71 paise

49 rupees 79 paise from 123 rupees 68 paise

49 rupees 79 paise can be represented as 49.79 rupees and 123 rupees 68 paise can be represented as 123.68 rupees. Now, on subtracting we’ll get,

123.68 −49.79−−−−−− 73.89

Which means 73 rupees 89 paise.

Note: We can also perform the subtraction by making all units the same that are paise and then subtract.

A soup bowl is in the shape of a hemisphere with a diameter of 10 cm. What is the approximate maximum volume of soup that the bo
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

3.48cm³ (approximated)

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum water that bowl can hold = The volume of the bowl

\boxed{ \mathsf{volume \: of \: bowl =  \frac{2}{3}  \times \pi \: r {}^{3} }}

Radius is half of diameter.

<u>Given</u> -

  • Diameter = 10cm .

<em>From</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>given</em><em> </em><em>data</em><em> </em><em>we</em><em> </em><em>can</em><em> </em><em>derive </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>radius</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>hemispheri</em><em>cal</em><em> </em><em>bowl</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>c</em><em>m</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>/</em><em>2</em><em>)</em>

Putting the known values into the formula to get the value of the volume of bowl :

\mathsf{volume =  \frac{2}{3} \times \:   3.14 \:  \times  {5}^{3} }

= 3.48888cm³

= 3.48cm³

Kensington City Cafe recently introduced a new flavor of coffee. They served 28 grande cups
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

jumbo 23 oz, grande 16 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Use g for grande and j for jumbo

The first equation: 28g + 33j = 1207

The second equation: 28g + 53j = 1667

Subtract the first from the second

   28g + 53j = 1667

-   28g + 33j = 1207

Equal 20j = 460

j = 23

Put 23 in for j in either equation and solve for g:

28g + 33(23) = 1207

28g + 759 = 1207

28g = 448

g = 16

During a fundraiser, Ms. Dawson’s class raised $560, which is 25% more than Mr. Casey’s class raised. How much money did Mr. Cas
evablogger [386]

Answer:

$420

Step-by-step explanation:

To work this out you would need to find the 25% decrease of 560. To do this you would first divide 25 by 100, which gives you 0.25. Then you would minus 0.25 from 1, which gives you 0.75. This is because when finding percentage decreases you would first have to convert it into a decimal. Then you would have to minus it from 1 , to make sure that it will be a 25% decrease not a 75% decrease. Then you would multiply 560 by 0.75, which gives you 420.

1) Divide 25 by 100.

25/100=0.25

2) Minus 0.25 from 1.

1-0.25=0.75

3) Multiply 560 by 0.75.

560*0.75=$420
