The weekly earnings of students in one age group are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 47 dollars. A researcher

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Option D) 340

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = $47

Margin of error = 5

95% Confidence Interval:

$\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$\text{Margin of error} = z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Putting the values, we get,

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96$

$5 = 1.96(\dfrac{47}{\sqrt{n}} )\\\\\sqrt{n} = \dfrac{47\times 1.96}{5}\\\\n = 339.443776\\\Rightarrow n \approx 340$

Thus, the correct answer is

Option D) 340

Please help with the following question

Alex17521 [72]

P1=(0,0)=(x1,y1)→x1=0, y1=0
P2=(3,-2)=(x2,y2)→x2=3, y2=-2

Slope: m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-2-0)/(3-0)
m=(-2)/3
m=-2/3

Point-slope equation:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-0=(-2/3)(x-0)
y=-(2/3)x

Answer: The equation of the line is: y=-(2/3)x

After a 40% discount an item costs $360. what is the original cost

Reptile [31]

Original Price = Final Price / (100 - Discount)

So...

OP = 360 / 100 - 0.40
OP = 360 / 0.60
OP = 600

The original price is $600.

To check, do 600 - (600 * 0.40) in a calculator. You get 600 - 240 = 360, the discounted cost.
