Hello there!
First, we need to admit that math is a hard subject. So, how do we handle hard stuff? We find an easy way. Right?
Well same goes here. They give the fractions to drive us crazy. Let's find the easiest way...
The easiest way is to turn them into decimals.
1 3/7 = 1.42 which is the amount of pages he reads
2/3 = 0.67 minute.
The are asking us how many pages does he reads per minute.
So we gonna say:
Charlie reads 1.42 pages ......> 0.67
Charlie reads x pages.............> 1minute
Cross multiply
0.67 * x = 1 * 1.42
0.67x = 1.42
x = 1.42/0.67
x = 2.11
So, Charlie reads 2.11 pages in 1 minute.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have questions about the answer.
Thanks!
Answer: Verizon is less expensive than the S&P 500 on both a P/E and dividend yield basis.
Step-by-step explanation:
When a <em>Price to Earnings ratio is relatively high</em> this means that the <em>Price of the security is high </em>because investors believe the company has good prospects.
When a Dividend Yield is relatively low, this means that the dividends being declared are quite lower than the price because Dividend yield is dividends as a percentage of security price. <em>Lower Dividend Yields therefore mean high security prices</em>.
Looking at the Verizon Chart and the S&P 500 you see that Verizon P/E ratio is 11.71 while S&P is 19.01.
This means that the price of Verizon's is less than S&P 500.
Also notice that Verizon's Dividend yield is 4.09% while S&P 500's is 1.91% again signifying that Verizon is cheaper.
I have attached the full question.
Answer:
c) t-test of population mean
Explanation:
The t-test statistic is used in hypothesis testing. Here we would use a one sample t test to test our hypothesis. The one sample t test measures the statistical difference between the hypothesized mean and the sample mean. In a one sample t test or single sample t test, a test variable is measured against a test value.
Example we compare our test variable to the hypothesized mean value $75 above.
The t test is used instead of z score when standard deviation is unknown.
Using the t test, we either accept or reject the null hypothesis given alternative hypothesis.
Answer:
8 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the statement we have that they first made two identical square pyramids, each with a base area of 100 square inches.
Ab = s ^ 2 = 100
Therefore each side would be:
s = (100) ^ (1/2)
s = 10
So, side of the square base = 10 inches
Then they tell us that they glued the bases of the pyramids together to form the precious stone. The surface area of the gemstone is 520 square inches, so for a single pyramid it would be:
Ap = 520/2 = 260
For an area of the square pyramid we have the following equation:
Ap = 2 * x * s + s ^ 2
Where x is the height of each triangular surface and s is the side of the square base
Replacing we have:
260 = 2 * x * 10 + 10 ^ 2
20 * x + 100 = 260
20 * x = 160
x = 160/20
x = 8
Therefore, the value of x is 8 inches.
