Answer:

a) 3.128

b) Yes, it is an outerlier

Step-by-step explanation:

The standardized z-score for a particular sample can be determined via the following expression:

z_i = {x_i -\bar x}/{s}

Where;

\bar x = sample means

s = sample standard deviation

Given data:

the mean shipment thickness (\bar x) = 0.2731 mm

With the standardized deviation (s) = 0.000959 mm

The standardized z-score for a certain shipment with a diameter x_i= 0.2761 mm can be determined via the following previous expression

z_i = {x_i -\bar x}/{s}

z_i = {0.2761-0.2731}/{ 0.000959}

z_i = 3.128

b)

From the standardized z-score

If [z_i < 2]; it typically implies that the data is unusual

If [z_i > 2]; it means that the data value is an outerlier

However, since our z_i > 3 (I.e it is 3.128), we conclude that it is an outerlier.

2x+5y=11 and 4x+3y=1 solve with elimination
storchak [24]
Multiply you first equation by 2 to get 4x + 10y = 22
Now the x terms can be eliminated and cancelled out using elimination.
4x + 10y = 22
4x + 3y = 1

To eliminate you need to "subtract", so you need to multiply one of the equations by -1. 

4x + 10y = 22
-4x -3y = -1
------------------
0 + 7y = 21
y = 3

Now plug 3 into either one of the equations to get x.

Countering a cost $9.40 per sales tax. After sales tax, it cost $9.87. What is the sales tax rate?
Nady [450]
STEP 1:
find the sales tax (decimal form)

x= sales tax

Cost + (Cost * Sales Tax)= Total
plug in known numbers

$9.40 + ($9.40 * x)= $9.87

9.40 + 9.40x= 9.87
subtract 9.40 from both sides

9.40x= 0.47
divide both sides by 9.40

x= 0.47/9.40

x= 0.05 sales tax decimal form


STEP 2:
find sales tax percentage

= 0.05 * 100
or move decimal to the right two decimal places

= 5% sales tax percent form


ANSWER: The sales tax is 5% (or 0.05 in decimal form)

Hope this helps! :)
