Answer:

Number of trout caught by Bill = 16 trout

Number of trout caught by Steve = 30 trout

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of trout caught = 46

Number of trout caught by Steve = Number of trout caught by Bill + 14

Find:

Number of trout caught by Steve

Number of trout caught by Bill

Computation:

Assume;

Number of trout caught by Bill = a

Number of trout caught by Steve = a + 14

So,

Number of trout caught by Steve + Number of trout caught by Bill = Total number of trout caught

a + a + 14 = 46

2a = 46 - 14

2a = 32

a = 16

Number of trout caught by Bill = 16 trout

Number of trout caught by Steve = a + 14

Number of trout caught by Steve = 16 + 14

Number of trout caught by Steve = 30 trout

100% - 20% = 80%

$26.95 * 80% = $21.56

You multiply by 80% because you are taking 20% off and now want to know what 80% of the price will be.

Out of 100 people sampled, 42 had kids. Based on this, construct a 99% confidence interval for the true population proportion of
maksim [4K]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the true population proportion of people with kids is (0.293, 0.547).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

Out of 100 people sampled, 42 had kids.

This means that n = 100, \pi = \frac{42}{100} = 0.42

99% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.01, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995, so Z = 2.575.  

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.42 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{100}} = 0.293

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.42 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{100}} = 0.547

The 99% confidence interval for the true population proportion of people with kids is (0.293, 0.547).

I NEED HELP WITH ME MATH
ruslelena [56]

ok so lets start of with the fact that the whole thing is 21 units.

So we do 21-9=12 so then we now know that the rectangle is 12 so then we do 12*8 units which is= 96 . Now the triangles. so the first one we know that its 8*3 and times it by 1/2 because two triangles is equal to a rectangle so the first triangle is 12 and now the second. its 9-3= 6 then its 6*8*1/2 which is equal to 24 so now the final answer is

96+12+24 which is equal to 132 so i'm guessing it 132 square units
