Answer:

The answer is "(25.32, 30.68)"

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\bar x = 28\\\\ \sigma = 4\\\\n =26\\\\

When 98\% confidence level so, the z:

\alpha = 1 - 98\% = 1 - 0.98 = 0.2\\\\\frac{\alpha}{2} =\frac{0.02}{2} = 0.01\\\\Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} = Z_{0.01} = 1.645\ \ \  ( Using \ z \ table )\\\\

E = Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} \times ( \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})  

= 1.645 \times (\frac{4}{\sqrt{26}})\\\\=2.68

When  98% confidence interval estimate of the population mean  is,

\bar x - E < \mu < \bar x + E\\\\28 - 2.68 <  \mu < 28 + 2.68\\\\25.32 <  \mu < 30.68\\\\(25.32,  30.68)\\\\

A student had 500 milliliters of water in a water bottle. She drank 25% of the water before soccer practice. After practice, she drank 1/3 of the remaining water.

​How much water, in milliliters, does the student have left in the bottle?

Answer:

the amount of water the student have left in the bottle is 250 milliliters

Step-by-step explanation:

A student had 500 milliliters of water in a water bottle. She drank 25% of the water before soccer practice. After practice, she drank 1/3 of the remaining water.

​How much water, in milliliters, does the student have left in the bottle?

Before the soccer practice, she drank 25 % of the water

25% of the water = 25% of 500

                             = 25% × 500

                              =\frac{25}{100} ×  500

At the right hand-side of the equation, the two zeros will cancel-out the other two zeros, hence;

                                = 25 × 5

                                 =125

25% of the water = 125 milliliters

From the question, it was said that drank 25% of the water before soccer, this implies that she drank 125 milliliters from the water bottles.

If she drank 125 milliliters of  from a 500 milliliters water contain in the water bottle, then the amount of water left will be 500 ml - 125 ml = 375 ml

This implies that before the soccer practice she had 375 milliliters of water left in the water bottle.

After the practice, she drank 1/3 of the remaining water, which means after the practice she drank 1/3 of 375

1/3 of 375 = \frac{1}{3} × 375 = \frac{375}{3} = 125

After the practice she drank 125 milliliters of water from her 375 milliliters water.

The amount of water she have left after the practice will be;

375 milliliters - 125 milliliters = 250 milliliters

Therefore, the amount of water the student have left in the bottle is 250 milliliters

Find each measurement indicated. Round your answers to the nearest tenth.
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Find AB using the Law of Sine:

\frac{AB}{sin(C)} = \frac{AC}{sin(B)}

Thus:

\frac{AB}{sin(40)} = \frac{47}{sin(103)}

Multiply both sides by sin(40)

\frac{AB}{sin(40)}*sin(40) = \frac{47}{sin(103)}*sin(40)

AB = \frac{47*Sin(40)}{sin(103)}

AB = 31.0056916 ≈ 31.0 cm (nearest tenth)
