Answer: 0.2643

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion and \hat{p} be the sample proportion .

As per given question , we have

p=0.14\\\\ \hat{p}=0.13\\\\ n=478

z-score : \dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}

z=\dfrac{0.13-0.14}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.14(1-0.14)}{478}}}\\\\=-0.630087269176\approx-0.63

The required probability ( using z-table ):-

P(z

Hence, the probability that the proportion of books checked out in a sample of 478 books would be less than 13% = 0.2643

Answer:

$9398.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\$1 = 106.40\ ALL

Required

Equivalent of 1,000,000 ALL

We have:

\$1 = 106.40\ ALL

and

\$x = 1000000\ ALL

Cross Multiply

x * 106.40 = 1 * 1000000

106.40x = 1000000

Solve for x

x = 1000000/106.4

<em></em>x = \$9398.50<em> -- Approximated</em>

daser333 [38]

Answer:

1 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, Make the first fraction into a new one with an equal denominator. (3/4 x2= 6/8)

Then, subtract the whole numbers (2-1=1) and the fractions (6/8-5/8= 1/8)

Lastly, add your two differences together and you get 1 1/8.
