Answer:

40x-6 is not equivalent because 16 is not a multiple of 40

Step-by-step explanation:

if you write the multiples of 4o you will see that 16 is not one of them so that means 40x-16 is not equivalent

Answer:

The best conclusion is that we are 90% that the true population proportion of Republicans that voted for Mitt Romney is between 0.7273 and 0.8106.

Step-by-step explanation:

x% confidence interval:

A confidence interval is built from a sample, has bounds a and b, and has a confidence level of x%. It means that we are x% confident that the population mean is between a and b.

In this question:

The 90% confidence interval for the proportion of Republican voters that had voted for Mitt Romney is (0.7273, 0.8106). The best conclusion is that we are 90% that the true population proportion of Republicans that voted for Mitt Romney is between 0.7273 and 0.8106.

5. A survey of student pizza preferences showed that 43 students preferred cheese, 56 preferred sausage, 39 preferred pepperoni,

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

P (Cheese) = 0.199, P (Sausage) = 0.259, P (Pepperoni) = 0.181,

P (Supreme) = 0.130, P (Another Kind) = 0.144

and P (Does not like any kind) = 0.088

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of students who prefer cheese = 43

Number of students who prefer sausage = 56

Number of students who prefer pepperoni = 39

Number of students who prefer supreme = 28

Number of students who prefer another kind = 31

Number of students who did not like any kind = 19

∴ The total number of students surveyed = $43+56+39+28+31+19=216$ The number of students who prefer pizza = $43+56+39+28+31=197$

The probability that a students likes pizza is,

$P(Student\ likes\ pizza)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ pizza}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{197}{216} \\=0.912$

The probability that a students does not likes pizza is,

$P(Student\ does\ not\ likes\ pizza)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ does\ not\ prefer\ pizza}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{19}{216} \\=0.088$

The probability distribution of students who prefer different kinds of pizza is:

The probability that a student likes cheese:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ cheese)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ cheese}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{43}{216}\\=0.199$

The probability that a student likes sausage:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ sausage)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ sausage}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{56}{216}\\=0.259$

The probability that a student likes pepperoni:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ pepperoni)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ pepperoni}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{39}{216}\\=0.181$

The probability that a student likes supreme:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ supreme)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ supreme}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{28}{216}\\=0.130$

The probability that a student likes another kind:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ another\ kind)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ another\ kind}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{31}{216}\\=0.144$

Thus, the probability distribution table is displayed below:

$400 interest is earned on a principal of $2,000 at a simple interest rate of 5% interest per year. For how many years was the p

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Simple interest= $400

Principal= $2000

Rate= 5%

The simple interest formula is given as

SI=PRT/100

substitute and solve for T

400=2000*5*T/100

cross multiply

400*100= 10000*T

40000=10000T

T= 40000/10000

T= 4 years

Hence the time taken is 4 years

I want a way to solve this question

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Cosine rule to find ∠ A

cosA = $\frac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc}$

= $\frac{5.1^2+5.7^2-7.3^2}{2(5.1)(5.7)}$

= $\frac{26.01+32.49-53.29}{58.14}$

= $\frac{5.21}{58.14}$ , then

∠ A = $cos^{-1}$ ( $\frac{5.21}{58.14}$ ) ≈ 84.9° ( to 1 dec. place )
