The equation would be 800(0.24)^x.
x would be 5.
800(1.24)^5
=2345.300
=$2345

Y=x-3 what is my answer

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

x = 3 or y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, substitute y with a 0.

0=x-3. Minus the x on both sides and x will equal 3

To find y, substitute x with a 0.

y=0-3. 0-3 equals -3 which means that y will equal -3

Which questions can be answered by finding the surface area? Check all that apply.

True [87]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area is pretty synonymous with area.

How much paint is needed to paint the outside of a birdhouse?

Paint is measured in volume, so not surface area

How much wallpaper is needed to cover the walls of your room?

Since its just the walls its not total surface area, but surface area of the walls.

How much water will it take to fill a rectangular container?

water is measured in volume, especially when wanting to fill something.

How much topsoil can a gardener place in his wheelbarrow?

Wants to know how much topsoil is needed to FILL the wheelbarrow, filling is volume. So not surface area.

How much fabric is needed to make a pillowcase for a pillow?

Not asking to fill the pillowcase, just how much is needed for the thin, one layer thick case. So this is surface area.

A random sample of the costs of repair jobs at a large muffler repair shop produces a mean of $127.95. and a standard deviation

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

$127.95-1.685\frac{24.03}{\sqrt{40}}=121.55$

$127.95 +1.685\frac{24.03}{\sqrt{40}}=134.35$

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (121.55;134.35)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=127.95$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=24.03 represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

In order to calculate the critical value $t_{\alpha/2}$ we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

$df=n-1=40-1=39$

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of $\alpha=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.05,39)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=1.685$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$127.95-1.685\frac{24.03}{\sqrt{40}}=121.55$

$127.95 +1.685\frac{24.03}{\sqrt{40}}=134.35$

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (121.55;134.35)
