Answer: the smallest number of people required for the sample to meet the conditions for performing inference is 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

36% of US population has never been married

32% are divorced

27% are married

5% are widowed

Taking a simple random sample of individuals to test this claim;

we need expected count in each cell to be at least 5, here the smallest proportion is 5% = 0.05

so we only need to satisfy condition for its expected count;

n × 0.05 ≥ 5

n = 5 / 0.05 = 100

Therefore the smallest number of people required for the sample to meet the conditions for performing inference is 100

A couple is required by their lender to have a down payment of 20% of the purchase price of the home they want to buy. If the co
Stella [2.4K]

Down payment is 20% of the price of the home. Since the couple saved $35,000, and assuming they will pay the whole money as down payment, the highest priced home they can get is a price whose 20% is $35,000.

We can setup an equation in x (being the price of home) to get the price of the most expensive home they can buy.

<em>Which number (x) , multiplied by 20%, is equal to $35,000?</em>

<em>x(0.2)=35,000\\x=\frac{35,000}{0.2} \\x=175,000</em>

So, the most expensive house they can buy is worth $175,000.


ANSWER: $175,000

A long distance phone service charges $0.30 for the first 10 minutes and $0.05 for each additional minute or fraction thereof. U
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: Our Cost function is discontinuous at every integer after x>10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

For the first 10 minutes , the service charges = $0.30

Let the number of additional minute be 't'.

Amount charge for each additional minute = $0.05

Using the greatest integer function:

So, Cost C of a call in terms of time 't' minutes would be

C=0.03+0.05\left \lceil t-10 \right \rceil

As we know that Greatest integer is discontinuous at every integer.

So, our Cost function is discontinuous at every integer after x>10.
