You want to know about the dining habits of college students in the US. Since you do not have resources to survey all college st

udents in the nation, you take a random sample of 1501. You learn that, on average, they eat out 4 times per week. Also, these sample data are generally distributed about the average of 4 times, by 1.5 times per week. 1. What is the average times per week that college students across the nation eat out

Answer:

the average times per week that college students across the nation eat out lies within these 95% confidence interval

      3.938  <  \mu < 4.062

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The sample size is n =  1501

    The sample mean  is  \= x =  4

      The standard deviation is  \sigma  =  1.5

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.05

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  \frac{\alpha }{2} is  

   Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }

=>   E = 1.96  *  \frac{1.5 }{\sqrt{1501} }

=>   E = 0.06196

Generally the estimate for average times per week that college students across the nation eat out at a 95% confidence is  mathematically represented as

      \= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E

      4  -0.06196  <  \mu < 4  + 0.06196

=>   3.938  <  \mu < 4.062

Hence the true average times per week that college students across the nation eat out lies within this interval

How could you change the equation from 5x+2=5x+5 so it has infinitely many solutions?
Ganezh [65]

I'm working on the same thing right now and I'm using every resource in my hands right now to find a solution. I will edit this post when I have more. If you need any more help I have completed the previous activity and most of this one.

EDIT:

Ok so I checked with somebody who is pretty good with math and they said that 5x=5x would be right. Not too sure but that's what I'm putting.

I put EVERYTHING for this assignment in comments down below. Geez all of this for 5 freakin points.

Suppose you had D dollars in your bank account. you spent $22 but have at least $28 left. how much money did you have initially?
nalin [4]

Answer:

Answer:

d--22→ 28

d→ 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d dollars be the initial amount in your bank account.

We have been given that you spent $22, so the amount left after spending $22 will be: .

We are also told that after spending $22, you have at least $28. This means that the amount left after spending $22 will be greater than or equal to $28.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

Therefore, the inequality represents the initial amount of money you had.

Now let us solve for d by adding 22 to both sides of our inequality.

Therefore, initially you had at least $50.
