Answer:

14.955 to the nearest hundredth is 14.96

Step-by-step explanation:

The hundredths place in this scenario is 5. If you round it up, you get 10, which means that it would turn into 6 since it comes after 5. In conclusion, the answer is 14.96.

14.955
the 1 in this case is in the TENS place
the 4 is in the ONES place
the 9 is in the TENTHS place
the first 5 is in the HUNDREDTHS place
and the second 5 is in the THOUSANDTHS place
so to round 14.955 to the nearest hundredth you must stop it at the hundredths place (where the first 5 is) but since you are rounding you must look at the number behind it (the second 5 in the thousandths place) to see if you will remain at .95 or round up to .96 since the number behind the hundredths place is a 5 we will then round the whole number up to 14.96 because when the number in the place after the one you are rounding to is 5 or more then you round up if 4 or less u round back down

The population of a city has increased by 27% since it was last measured. If the current population is 38,100, what was the prev

adoni [48]

Answer:

the previous population was 62,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

The current population of a city = 83,700

The population of a city has increased by 35% since it was last measured.

We have to calculate the previous population before increasing 35%.

Let the previous population be p

p +(35% × p) = 83,700

p + 0.35p = 83,700

1.35p = 83,700

p =

p = 62,000

Therefore, the previous population was 62,000.

A student records the repair cost for 22 randomly selected dryers. A sample mean of $98.78 and standard deviation of $15.49 are

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The critical value that should be used is T = 2.0796.

The 95% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the dryers is between $91.912 and $105.648.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 22 - 1 = 21

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 21 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975$ . So we have T = 2.0796, which is the critical value that should be used.
