Jayden needed to get his computer fixed. He took it to the repair store. The technician at the store worked on the computer for

3.75 hours and charged him $60 for parts. The total was $528.75. Write and solve an equation which can be used to determine xx, the cost of the labor per hour.

Answer:

$125 and hour - (528.75 - 60) / 3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the total includes the $60 for the parts, we have to subtract 60 from 528.75. Once we've found the difference (468.75), we can divide by the amount of hours (3.75). That leaves us with the answer, $125.

Helppppppp. Find k if the lines 3x-5y=9 & 2x+ky=11 are a)parallel and b)perpendicular

V125BC [204]

For lines to be parallel, they have to have the same slopes. For the equation given as Ax + By + C = 0, the slope is -A / B. Equating the slopes of the given equations of lines,
- (3 / -5) = - (2 / k)
The value of k is equal to -10/3.

A simple random sample of items resulted in a sample mean of . The population standard deviation is . a. Compute the confidence

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

(a): The 95% confidence interval is (46.4, 53.6)

(b): The 95% confidence interval is (47.9, 52.1)

(c): Larger sample gives a smaller margin of error.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n = 30$ -- sample size

$\bar x = 50$ -- sample mean

$\sigma = 10$ --- sample standard deviation

Solving (a): The confidence interval of the population mean

Calculate the standard error

$\sigma_x = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}$

$\sigma_x = \frac{10}{\sqrt {30}}$

$\sigma_x = \frac{10}{5.478}$

$\sigma_x = 1.825$

The 95% confidence interval for the z value is:

$z = 1.960$

Calculate margin of error (E)

$E = z * \sigma_x$

$E = 1.960 * 1.825$

$E = 3.577$

The confidence bound is:

$Lower = \bar x - E$

$Lower = 50 - 3.577$

$Lower = 46.423$

$Lower = 46.4$ --- approximated

$Upper = \bar x + E$

$Upper = 50 + 3.577$

$Upper = 53.577$

$Upper = 53.6$ --- approximated

<em>So, the 95% confidence interval is (46.4, 53.6)</em>

Solving (b): The confidence interval of the population mean if mean = 90

First, calculate the standard error of the mean

$\sigma_x = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}$

$\sigma_x = \frac{10}{\sqrt {90}}$

$\sigma_x = \frac{10}{9.49}$

$\sigma_x = 1.054$

The 95% confidence interval for the z value is:

$z = 1.960$

Calculate margin of error (E)

$E = z * \sigma_x$

$E = 1.960 * 1.054$

$E = 2.06584$

The confidence bound is:

$Lower = \bar x - E$

$Lower = 50 - 2.06584$

$Lower = 47.93416$

$Lower = 47.9$ --- approximated

$Upper = \bar x + E$

$Upper = 50 + 2.06584$

$Upper = 52.06584$

$Upper = 52.1$ --- approximated

<em>So, the 95% confidence interval is (47.9, 52.1)</em>

Solving (c): Effect of larger sample size on margin of error

In (a), we have:

$n = 30$ $E = 3.577$

In (b), we have:

$n = 90$ $E = 2.06584$

<em>Notice that the margin of error decreases when the sample size increases.</em>

✽ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ~Hello There!~ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ✽

$3 \times 18 + 3 + 4 \div ( 4 - 2)$
