Answer:

A. -1/8x + 3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2(1/4x - 3/8)

Distribute the -1/2 into both the terms in the equation.

-1/2 * 1/4x = -1/8x

-1/2 * -3/8 = 3/16

Now combine both the expressions.

This makes your answer A,

$-\frac{1}{8}x+\frac{3}{16}$

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The exact number would be 26.66666667 but it would be 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually when dealing with decimals anything 5 and up would be rounded up but since we are dealing with money we don't round up. Since his friends lunch cost $3 every lunch the most he will be able to buy is 26. He will have about $2.5 left over which he cannot buy a lunch with so thats why you dont round up.

To estimate the mean height μ of male students on your campus,you will measure an SRS of students. You know from government data

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

a) $\sigma = 0.167$

b) We need a sample of at least 282 young men.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

This Zscore is how many standard deviations the value of the measure X is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

(a) What standard deviation must x have so that 99.7% of allsamples give an x within one-half inch of μ?

To solve this problem, we use the 68-95-99.7 rule. This rule states that:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we want 99.7% of all samples give X within one-half inch of $\mu$ . So $X - \mu = 0.5$ must have $Z = 3$ and $X - \mu = -0.5$ must have $Z = -3$ .

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$3 = \frac{0.5}{\sigma}$

$3\sigma = 0.5$

$\sigma = \frac{0.5}{3}$

$\sigma = 0.167$

(b) How large an SRS do you need to reduce the standard deviationof x to the value you found in part (a)?

You know from government data that heights of young men are approximately Normal with standard deviation about 2.8 inches. This means that $\sigma = 2.8$

The standard deviation of a sample of n young man is given by the following formula

$s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

We want to have $s = 0.167$

$0.167 = \frac{2.8}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.167\sqrt{n} = 2.8$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.8}{0.167}$

$\sqrt{n} = 16.77$

$\sqrt{n}^{2} = 16.77^{2}$

$n = 281.23$

We need a sample of at least 282 young men.

Josie sold 790 tickets to a local car show for a total of $4,390.00. A ticket for a Child costs $4.00 and adult ticket costs $7.

Papessa [141]

Let's define the following variables first.

A = number of tickets sold for adults

C = number of tickets sold for children

From the question, we can say that or form the following equations:

1. A + C = 790 tickets

2. $7A + $4C = $4, 390

The first equation can also be written as A = 790 - C. We can use this equation and replace "A" in the second equation.

$7(790-C)+4c=4,390$

From that, we can solve "C" by solving the equation formed above.

$\begin{gathered} \text{Distribute 7 to the terms inside the parenthesis.} \\ 7(790)-7(C)+4C=4,390 \\ 5,530-7C+4C=4,390 \\ \text{Subtract 5,530 on both sides of the equation.} \\ -7C+4C=-1140 \\ -3C=-1140 \\ \text{Divide -3 on both sides.} \\ C=380 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, 380 tickets for children were sold.

Since there are 790 tickets in total that are sold and 380 tickets for children were sold, we can say that 410 tickets for adult was sold.

$\begin{gathered} A=790-C \\ A=790-380 \\ A=410 \end{gathered}$
