Answer:

$6.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of pennies = 10% of the 50 coins = .10(50) = 5

Number of dimes = 34% of the 50 coins = .34(50) = 17

Number of nickels = 7 + no. of pennies = 7 + 5 = 12

Number of quarters = 50 - 5 - 17 - 12 = 16

Each penny is 1 cent, each nickel is 5 cents, each dime is 10 cents, and each quarter is 25 cents.

Amount of money in the bag = 5(1) + 17(10) + 12(5) + 16(25) = 5 + 170 + 60 + 400 = 635 cents = $6.35

Suppose the speeds of vehicles traveling on a highway are normally distributed and have a known population standard deviation of

erik [133]

Answer:

2.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

$\sigma$ = Population standard deviation = 7 miles per hour

Random sample = n = 32 vehicles

Sample mean = $\bar X$ = 64 miles per hour

98% confidence level

Now based on the above information, the alpha is

= 1 - confidence level

= 1 - 0.98

= 0.02

For $\alpha_1_2$ = 0.01

$Z \alpha_1_2$ = 2.326

Now the margin of error is

$= Z \alpha_1_2 \times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$= 2.326 \times \frac{7}{\sqrt{32}}$

= 2.88

hence, the margin of error is 2.88

A rectangle is 36 inches x 48 inches.<br><br> what is the perimeter.?<br><br> what is its area.?

olga nikolaevna [1]

For area, just multiply the length x width
So therefore, multiply 36 inches x 48 inches and there you have it.

Now for the perimeter, it is a little different
You'd have to add the sides up together to get your answer for the perimeter.
So, 36 in + 36 in + 48 in + 48 in = answer
