Answer: $3.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Laura bought 4 1/3 bushels of apples.

Firs convert this to an improper fraction for easier calculation:

= 13/3 bushels of apples.

If cost $16 altogether, individually they must cost:

= Cost / Quantity purchased

= 16 ÷ 13/3

= 16 * 3/13

= $3.69

<em>Note: You can divide by a fraction by multiplying the inverse of that fraction. </em>

Olegator [25]

Answer:

a) X[bar]₁=  1839.20 cal

b) X[bar]₂= 1779.07 cal

c) S₁= 386.35 cal

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You have two independent samples,

Sample 1: n₁= 15 children that did not eat fast food.

Sample 2: n₂= 15 children that ate fast food.

The study variables are:

X₁: Calorie consumption of a kid that does not eat fast food in one day.

X₂: Calorie consumprion of a kid that eats fast food in one day.

a)

The point estimate of the population mean is the sample mean

X[bar]₁= (∑X₁/n₁) = (27588/15)= 1839.20 cal

b)

X[bar]₂= (∑X₂/n₂)= (26686/15)= 1779.07 cal

c)

To calculate the sample standard deiation, you have to calculate the sample variance first:

S₁²= \frac{1}{n_1-1}[∑X₁² - (( ∑X₁)²/n₁)]= \frac{1}{14} + [52829538 - (\frac{27588^{2} }{15}) = 149263.4571 cal²

S₁= 386.35 cal

I hope it helps!

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

  A. About 4,900 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We want h such that ...

  5 = 10·ln(h) -80

  8.5 = ln(h) . . . . . . . add 80, divide by 10

  e^8.5 = h ≈ 4914.8 . . . . take the antilog

  h ≈ 4900 . . . . feet

A diamond ring increases in value at a rate of 5% per year. If the ring was purchased for $1200, which equation would calculate
Margarita [4]

Answer:

A - y = 1200(1+.05)^30

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, you need to calculate the future value and the formula to calculate that is:

FV=PV*(1+r)^n

FV=future value

PV=present value

r=rate

n=number of periods of time

The present value would be the price of the ring which is $1200. The rate is 5% per year and the number of periods of time is 30 years since you need to find the ring's worth in 30 years. Now, you can replace the values on the formula:

FV=1200*(1+0.05)^30

According to this, the answer is that the equation to calculate how much will it be worth in 30 years is: y = 1200(1+.05)^30.
