Answer:

Sample mean = 7.1

Margin of error = 0.465

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for confidence interval is;

CI = x¯ ± zE

Where;

x¯ is sample mean

z is critical value at confidence level

E is margin of error.

z for 99% Cl is 2.58

We are told the CI is 5.9 to 8.3.

Thus;

5.9 = x¯ - 2.58E - - - - (1)

8.3 = x¯ + 2.58E - - - - (2)

Add both equations together to get;

14.2 = 2x¯

x¯ = 14.2/2

x¯ = 7.1

Put 7.1 for x¯ in eq 1 to get;

5.9 = 7.1 - 2.58E

7.1 - 5.9 = 2.58E

E = 1.2/2.58

E = 0.465

8000$ is invested in an account the yields 6% interest per year. After how many years will the account worth 13709.60$ if the in
ozzi

Answer:

After 9 years the account will be worth 13709.60$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

We are given the following in the question:

P = $8000

r = 6% = 0.046

n = 12

The compound interest is given by:

A = p\bigg(1+\dfrac{r}{n}\bigg)^{nt}

where A is the amount, p is the principal, r is the interest rate, t is the time in years.

Putting the values, we get,

13709.60 = 8000\bigg(1+\dfrac{0.06}{12}\bigg)^{12t}\\\\\dfrac{13709.60}{8000} = \bigg(1+\dfrac{0.06}{12}\bigg)^{12t}\\\\\Rightarrow 1.7137 = (1.005)^{12t}\\\Rightarrow t \approx 9

Thus, after 9 years the account will be worth 13709.60$

The length of the diagonal of a rectangle is √181 inches. ​ ​Which statement describes the length of the diagonal?
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The correct option is (B).

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the diagonal of a rectangle is \sqrt{181} inches.

Compute the value of \sqrt{181} inches as follows:

The number 181 is not a square of a whole number.

So, the square root of 181 must lie between two whole numbers.

Consider the following squares:

12^{2}=144

13^{2}=169

14^{2}=196

It is quite clear that the 181 lies between the square of 13 and 14.

So, it can be said that the square root of 181 is between the square of 13 and 14.

Thus, the length of the diagonal of a rectangle is between 13 and 14 inches.

The correct option is (B).

In an expression<br>(8/9) squared (-81)+3/5dividedby-9/10
Nitella [24]
If you wanted to calculate it, there it is:
(\frac{8}{9})^2 (-81)+\frac{\frac{3}{5}}{\frac{-9}{10}} = \frac{64}{81}*(-81)+\frac{3}{5}*\frac{10}{-9} = -64+\frac{-2}{3}= \\ =-64-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{-192-2}{3}=\frac{-194}{3}
