Molly can make 6 groups, with 3 flowers in each group. Since there is 18 flowers total, we can now divide 18 into 6 to get 3 flowers per group.

Answer:

It's perfectly okay to be slow. It's better to take your time, and thoroughly examine and understand the content than try to rush through it, which leaves many gaps in your knowledge in the process.

In studies for a medication, 3 percent of patients gained weight as a side effect. Suppose 643 patients are randomly selected.

timofeeve [1]

Part a)

It was given that 3% of patients gained weight as a side effect.

This means

$p = 0.03$

$q = 1 - 0.03 = 0.97$

The mean is

$\mu = np$

$\mu = 643 \times 0.03 = 19.29$

The standard deviation is

$\sigma = \sqrt{npq}$

$\sigma = \sqrt{643 \times 0.03 \times 0.97}$

$\sigma =4.33$

We want to find the probability that exactly 24 patients will gain weight as side effect.

P(X=24)

We apply the Continuity Correction Factor(CCF)

P(24-0.5<X<24+0.5)=P(23.5<X<24.5)

We convert to z-scores.

$P(23.5 \: < \: X \: < \: 24.5) = P( \frac{23.5 - 19.29}{4.33} \: < \: z \: < \: \frac{24.5 - 19.29}{4.33} ) \\ = P( 0.97\: < \: z \: < \: 1.20) \\ = 0.051$

Part b) We want to find the probability that 24 or fewer patients will gain weight as a side effect.

P(X≤24)

We apply the continuity correction factor to get;

P(X<24+0.5)=P(X<24.5)

We convert to z-scores to get:

$P(X \: < \: 24.5) = P(z \: < \: \frac{24.5 - 19.29}{4.33} ) \\ = P(z \: < \: 1.20) \\ = 0.8849$

Part c)

We want to find the probability that

11 or more patients will gain weight as a side effect.

P(X≥11)

Apply correction factor to get:

P(X>11-0.5)=P(X>10.5)

We convert to z-scores:

$P(X \: > \: 10.5) = P(z \: > \: \frac{10.5 - 19.29}{4.33} ) \\ = P(z \: > \: - 2.03)$

$= 0.9788$

Part d)

We want to find the probability that:

between 24 and 28, inclusive, will gain weight as a side effect.

P(24≤X≤28)=

P(23.5≤X≤28.5)

Convert to z-scores:

$P(23.5 \: < \: X \: < \: 28.5) = P( \frac{23.5 - 19.29}{4.33} \: < \: z \: < \: \frac{28.5 - 19.29}{4.33} ) \\ = P( 0.97\: < \: z \: < \: 2.13) \\ = 0.1494$

The tax on a $30 item is $1.20. Find the tax on a $130 item. How do I set this problem up?

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

$5.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the tax rate first:

$1.20

-------------- = 0.04

$30.00

The tax rate is 4%.

Then the tax on a $130 item is 0.04($130) = $5.20

Identify the slope and y-intercept of the equation 2x + 5y = 20

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Slope = - ⅖

Y-intercept = (0, 4), where b = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear equation in standard form, 2x + 5y = 20, where A = 2, B = 5, and C = 20:

Start by transforming the standard equation into its slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.

Subtract 2x from both sides:

2x -2x + 5y = - 2x + 20

5y = -2x + 20

Divide both sides by 5 to isolate y:

$\frac{5y}{5} = \frac{-2x + 20}{5}$

y = - ⅖x + 4 ⇒ This is the slope-intercept form where the slope, m = -⅖, and the y-intercept, b = 4. The y-intercept is the point on the graph where it crosses the y-axis, and has coordinates of (0, b). The y-coordinate is the value of b in the slope-intercept form. Therefore, the y-intercept is (0, 4).
