The manager of a major retail store has taken a random sample of 25 customers. The average sale was $52.50. The population stand

Anna35 [415]

Answer:P value = 1 - 0.9793 = 0.0207

Explanation:

we can use Z value and normal distribution to find P value. P value is the area of beyond the value of Z value

sample mean (x.bar) = $52.20

Population mean (U) = $50

Sample Standard deviation (Sd) =$ 6.10

sample (n) = 25

Z = $\frac{(x.bar - U)}{Sd/\sqrt{n} }$ = $\frac{52.50 - 50}{6.10/\sqrt{25} }$

Z = 2.50/1.22 = 2.049280328 = 2.049

area (normal distribution table) = 0.9793

P value = 1 - 0.9793 = 0.0207

During the first two years, Supplies, Inc. drove the company truck 15,000 and 22,000 miles, respectively, to deliver merchandise

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

option (A) $11,000

Explanation:

Given;

Miles drove in first year = 15,000

Miles drove in second year = 22,000

Cost of the truck = $175,000

Residual value = $25,000

Estimated life = 10 years or 300,000 miles

Now,

using the activity based method

Rate of depreciation per mile driven = $\frac{\textup{Cost of truck - Residual value}}{\textup{Estimated life}}$

or

Rate of depreciation per mile driven = $\frac{\textup{175,000 - 25,000}}{\textup{300,000}}$

or

= $0.5 per mile

also,

Number of miles driven in second year = 22,000 miles

Hence,

Depreciation for the second year

= Depreciation rate × Number of miles driven in second year

= 0.5 × 22,000

= $11,000

Hence,

The correct answer is option (A) $11,000

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

A client who has cancer and is receiving TPN. The following lab findings indicate the treatment is effective:

Prealbumin 30 mg/dL

Explanation:

TPN stands for total parental nutrition. It is a method of giving nutrition to a person in which nutrients are given to the vein in order to bypass the gastrointestinal tract because that person is unable to take food through mouth.
The prealbumin blood test is used to check that a person is getting required amount of nutrients and the normal test indicates that prealbumin is 30 mg/dL so that's why the lab finding indicates that the treatment is effective.
