Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

P = $ 482.00

Equation:

P = I / rt

Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 5%/100 = 0.05 per year,

then, solving our equation

P = 72.3 / ( 0.05 × 3 ) = 482

P = $ 482.00

The principal required to

accumulate interest of $ 72.30

on a rate of 5% per year for 3 years is $ 482.00.

hope it helps :)

Which is the equation of an ellipse centered at the origin with foci on x-axis, x-intercepts +7, -7 and y-intercepts +2,

Aleks04 [339]

We know that
foci on x-axis-------> is a ellipse with horizontal major axis

the equation is
(x²/a²)+(y²/b²)=1

major axis is the x-axis with length 2a
2a=14--------> a=7

minor axis is the y-axis with length 2b
2b=4-----> b=2

the equation is
(x²/a²)+(y²/b²)=1------> (x²/7²)+(y²/2²)=1-----> (x²/49)+(y²/4)=1

the answer is
(x²/49)+(y²/4)=1

According to a bridal magazine, the average cost of a wedding reception for an American wedding is $8213. Assume that this avera

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

a. The point estimate of the corresponding population mean is of $8213.

b. The margin of error is of $103.

c. The 98% confidence interval for the corresponding population mean is between $7973.5 and $8452.5, which means that for all weedings, we are 98% sure that the true population mean is in this interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

a. What is the point estimate of the corresponding population mean?

The sample mean is of $8213. So, by the Central Limit Theorem, the point estimate of the corresponding population mean is of $8213.

b. What is the margin of error for this estimate (use2 standard deviations (divided by Vn) to either side of the mean is used when no specific confidence level is stated).

Sample of 450, standard deviation of $2185. So

$M = \frac{2185}{\sqrt{450}} = 103$

The margin of error is of $103.

c. Create and interpret a 98% confidence interval for the corresponding population mean.

The confidence interval is given by:

$\mu \pm M*z$

In which $\mu$ is the sample mean and z is the value related to the confidence level.

98% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.02$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99$ , so $Z = 2.325$ .

Then

$\mu - M*z = 8213 - 2.325*103 = 7973.5$

$\mu + M*z = 8213 + 2.325*103 = 8452.5$

The 98% confidence interval for the corresponding population mean is between $7973.5 and $8452.5, which means that for all weedings, we are 98% sure that the true population mean is in this interval.

A new car costs $34,000 and its value depreciates at 14% of its value each year. What is the decay factor for the value of this

inessss [21]

The price of the car after 10 years is $7524.25 if the new car costs $34,000 and its value depreciates at 14% of its value each year.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let y represent the value of the car after x years. A new car costs $34,000 and its value depreciates at 14% of its value each year. Hence:

y = 34000(0.86)ˣ

After 10 years:

y = 34000(0.86)¹⁰ = 7524.25

The price of the car after 10 years is $7524.25 if the new car costs $34,000 and its value depreciates at 14% of its value each year.

Solve the system by graphing.

nlexa [21]

When solving a system by graphing you need to see where the lines intersect.

Below is a picture of these lines graphed. The green line is y = x +4 and the blue line is y = 4x - 1

The red dot represents the intersection is about (1, 5)

The original point is: (1.667, 5.667)
