Based on the information given the original size of the bottle is 17.5 ounces.

Using this formula

Original size of the bottle =New bottle size / Percentage increase

Where:

New bottle size=18.4 ounces

Percentage increase=(1+0.05)=1.05

Let plug in the formula

Original size of the bottle=18.4/(1+0.05)

Original size of the bottle=18.4/1.05

Original size of the bottle=17.5 ounces

Inconclusion the original size of the bottle is 17.5 ounces.

The cost of printing a catalog of the products that your company distributes is a flat rate of $52 plus $0.20 per copy. Let C re
yanalaym [24]
Given:
Cost of printing a catalog: flat rate of $52 and $0.20 per copy.

C = 52 + 0.20x

C is the total cost of printing x number of copies.

x = 500
C = 52 + 0.20(500) = 52 + 100 = 152

x = 1000
C = 52 + 0.20(1000) = 52 + 200 = 252

x = 1500
C = 52 + 0.20(1500) = 52 + 300 = 352

x = 2000
C = 52 + 0.20(2000) = 52 + 400 = 452

x = 2500
C = 52 + 0.20(2500) = 52 + 500 = 552

You measure 25 turtles' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 31 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 12.8
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Margin of error = 4.21 ounces  

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

  • Given That, You measure 25 turtles' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 31 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 12.8 ounces

Therefore, Sample mean = 31 ounces  ,  Sample size(n) = 25 , Alpha(α) = 0.10 & Population standard deviation(σ) = 12.8 ounces

  • Thus, Margin of error  = Z_{critical} × σ / √n  (Z_{critical} at α=.010 is 1.645)

Putting The Values, We get

1.645 × (12.8 / √25 ) ⇒ 4.2112 ≈ 4.21

Thus, the maximum margin of error associated with a 90% confidence interval for the true population mean turtle weight is 4.21 ounces

Answer:

\boxed{\sf{4}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a slope form.

<u>Slope:</u>

\sf{\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{rise}{run}  }

y₂ = (17)

y₁ = (1)

x₂ = (2)

x₁ = (-2)

Then, rewrite the problem.

Solve.

\sf{\dfrac{17-1}{2-(-2)}=\dfrac{16}{4}=\dfrac{16\div4}{4\div4}=\dfrac{4}{1}=\boxed{\sf{4}    }

Therefore, the slope is 4, which is our answer.

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.
