In January of 2011, the U.S. saw an increase in gas prices. Imagine the average price per gallon was $3.12 with a standard devia

tion of $0.27, according to a source such as AAA (Automobile Association of America) that tracks gas prices. You are on your long mid-semester break, so you and some friends decide to go on a 3000-mile road trip. You record the price of gas each of the 10 times you fill up your tank, and you compute an average price per gallon of $3.16. What percent of other sample means, based on 10 gas stations, would be greater than the one you observed

Answer:

31.92%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Population mean; μ = $3.12

Sample mean; x¯ = $3.16

Sample size; n = 10

Standard deviation; σ = $0.27

Z-score formula is; z = (x¯ - μ)/(σ/√n)

z = (3.16 - 3.12)/(0.27/√10)

z = 0.04/(0.08538)

z ≈ 0.47

Now, the percent of other sample means, based on 10 gas stations, that would be greater than the one observed is;

P(x¯ > 3.12) = 1 - P(z < 0.47)

From z-table attached P(z < 0.47) = 0.68082

Thus;

P(z > 0.47) = 1 - 0.68082

P(z > 0.47) ≈ 0.3192

This expressed in percentage is 31.92%

Noa was walking in the forest and measured the circumference of two trees that he found. The first tree measured 37 5/8 inches a
rodikova [14]

Answer:

Step 4: 44 32/24 - 37 15/24= 8 17/24

<u>Here we can finally find out the mistake done by Noa. The result is 7 17/24 and not 8 17/24.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review carefully all the steps taken by Noa to calculate the difference of the circumferences of the two trees.

Circumference Tree 1 = 37 5/8 inches around

Circumference Tree 2 =  45 1/3 inches around

Step 1: 45 1/3- 37 5/8

The measures are correct, no issues copying them.

Step 2: 45 8/24 - 37 15/24

Noa looked for common denominators

1/3 * 8/8 = 8 /24 is correct; 5/8 * 3/3 = 15/24 is also correct.

Step 3: 44 32/24 - 37 15/24

Noa looked for making the fraction part higher on the left side:

45 8/24 = 44 32/24 is correct because 24/24 = 1

Step 4: 44 32/24 - 37 15/24= 8 17/24

<u>Here we can finally find out the mistake done by Noa. The result is 7 17/24 and not 8 17/24.</u>

8 meters increased by 25% is how many meters.
vampirchik [111]
Since 25% is 1/4 of 100%, then you do 8/4 and you get 2 and then you do 2 + 8 = 10.
