The amount of tax that will be deducted will be A. $14.05

  • Amount given = $562
  • Tax percentage = 2 1/2%

In order to calculate the local tax that will be deducted, we've to multiply the amount that given by the tax percent and this will be:

= $562 × 2 1/2%

= $14.05

Therefore, the amount of tax that will be deducted will be $14.05

In conclusion, the correct option is A.

Simply 2 1/2 divided by 1 1/3
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

15.8 (15/8)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we turn the mixed numbers into fractions by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and this answer into the numerator:

2 1/2=5/2

1 1/3=4/3

now to divide, we keep the first fraction, change the divide to a multiply, and then flip the second fraction:

5/2·3/4

Now, simply multiply:

5/2·3/4=15/8 (15.8 if you need a decimal)

And you have your answer! hope this helped!

Which are factors of x2 – 4x – 5?
Kitty [74]

Answer:

(x-5)(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the highest power of x is 2, u can assume the equation to be (x +/- A) (x +/- B), whereby A and B are unknowns.

Since the coefficient of X^2 is 1, and the number in the equation is - 5, the only possible values for A and B to get - 5 is either - 5 and 1 or 1 and - 5.

Since coefficient of x is - 4 and number in equation is - 5, imagine inserting those numbers in the equation and cross multiplying back. You would realise that the answer should be as listed above.

Suppose that, in the past, 40% of all adults favored capital punishment. Do we have reason to believe that the proportion of adu
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.1469 > 0.05, which means that there is no reason to believe that the proportion of adults favoring capital punishment today has increased, using a 0.05 level of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that, in the past, 40% of all adults favored capital punishment. Test if the proportion has increased:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is still of 40%, that is:

H_0: p = 0.4

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion has increased, that is, is greater than 40%, so:

H_1: p > 0.4

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.4 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 0.4, \sigma = \sqrt{0.4*0.6}

Random sample of 15 adults, 8 favor capital punishment.

This means that n = 15, X = \frac{8}{15} = 0.5333

Value of the test statistic:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{0.5333 - 0.4}{\frac{\sqrt{0.4*0.6}}{\sqrt{15}}}

z = 1.05

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion of 0.5333 or more, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 1.05.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.05 has a p-value of 0.8531.

1 - 0.8531 = 0.1469.

The p-value of the test is 0.1469 > 0.05, which means that there is no reason to believe that the proportion of adults favoring capital punishment today has increased, using a 0.05 level of significance.

Diego and Pablo disagree on whether 0.8759 is a rational number or not. Diego says it is not rational, and Pablo says that it is
mina [271]

Pablo is correct because , the number 0.8759 is rational number because it doesn't go on like pi or the square root of 2 it stops at a certain point and was probably rounded . I'm not sure if its 100% correct.

Hope this helps!
