Answer:

11.33

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the markup

8.80 * 25%

8.8 *.25 = 2.20

The new price is 8.80+2.20 = 11

Now find the tax

11*.03

.33

Add the tax to the new price

11+.33

Can someone tell me if im right? PLEASE DONT JUST SAY YES if you don’t know

Answer: You are incorrect, the slope is correct, but the actual y-intercept is 205 ft.

Then the equation is:

y = (-15 ft/min)*x + 205 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, let's solve this.

We know that water is drained from a reservoir, let's assume that we can model this situation with a linear relation:

y = a*x + b

Where x is time, y is the height of the water in the reservoir, a is the slope (in this case represents how much changes the height of the water in the reservoir in one unit of time) and b is the initial height of the water in the reservoir.

We know that for a line that passes through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) the slope is:

a = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

For this particular case we know that after 2 minutes the height of the water is 175 ft, then we have the point (2 min, 175 ft)

and after 5 minutes (so 7 minutes in total), the height of the water is 100ft, then: (7 ft, 100ft)

Then the slope of this:

a = (100 ft - 175 ft)/(7 min - 2 min) = (-75ft/5min) = - 15 ft/min

Then our line is something like:

y = (-15ft/min)*x + b

To find the value of b, we can use the fact that when x = 2 min, y = 175 ft

So if we replace these two values in the equation we get:

175ft = (-15 ft/min)*2 min + b

175 ft = -30 ft + b

175 ft + 30 ft = b                  

(here is your problem, it seems like you subtracted instead of adding in this part)

205 ft = b

Then the equation is:

y = (-15 ft/min)*x + 205 ft

So you are incorrect (but only for a little bit), you computed wrong the y-intercept.

The heights of a random sample of 50 college students showed a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a standard deviation of 6.9 centime
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

For me, the first step to any statistics exercise is to determine what is the variable of interest and it's distribution.

In this example the variable is:

X: height of a college student. (cm)

There is no information about the variable distribution. To estimate the population mean you need a variable with at least a normal distribution since the mean is a parameter of it.

The option you have is to apply the Central Limit Theorem.

The central limit theorem states that if you have a population with probability function f(X;μ,δ²) from which a random sample of size n is selected. Then the distribution of the sample mean tends to the normal distribution with mean μ and variance δ²/n when the sample size tends to infinity.

As a rule, a sample of size greater than or equal to 30 is considered sufficient to apply the theorem and use the approximation.

The sample size in this exercise is n=50 so we can apply the theorem and approximate the distribution of the sample mean to normal:

X[bar]~~N(μ;σ2/n)

Thanks to this approximation you can use an approximation of the standard normal to calculate the confidence interval:

98% CI

1 - α: 0.98

⇒α: 0.02

α/2: 0.01

Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{1-0.01}= Z_{0.99} =2.334

X[bar] ± Z_{1-\alpha /2} * \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }

174.5 ± 2.334* \frac{6.9}{\sqrt{50} }

[172.22; 176.78]

With a confidence level of 98%, you'd expect that the true average height of college students will be contained in the interval [172.22; 176.78].

I hope it helps!
