Answer: a. $128.125

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard error of the mean is given by :

SE=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} , where \sigma = population standard deviation , n= sample size.

Given: \sigma=\$2,050

n= 256

Then, the standard error of the mean:-

SE=\dfrac{2050}{\sqrt{256}}\\\\=\dfrac{2050}{16}=\$128.125

Hence, option a. is correct.

Estimate the square root to the nearest integer and tenth square root of 8

Explanation:

Note that:

Hence the (positive) square root of  

8

is somewhere between  

2

and  

3

. Since  

8

is much closer to  

9

=

2

than  

4

=

2

, we can deduce that the closest integer to the square root is  

3

.

We can use this proximity of the square root of  

8

to  

3

to derive an efficient method for finding approximations.

Consider a quadratic with zeros

From this quadratic, we can define a sequence of integers recursively as follows:

The ratio between successive terms will tend very quickly towards

So:

Rani deposited AED 12000 for 3 years at the rate of 5 percent per annum. Calculate the simple interest and amount at the end of
Luda [366]

Answer:

the principal and the amount is 1,800 and 13,800 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the simple interest and amount for the end of the 3rd year is shown below:

Simple interest is

= Principal × rate of interest × time period

= 12,000 × 5% × 3 years

= 1,800

Now the amount is

= 12,000 + 1,800

= 13,800

hence, the principal and the amount is 1,800 and 13,800 respectively
