Answer:

37.5% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a relative percentage you generally follow the rule of part divided by whole.

$100 / $160 = .625 (62.5%)

So $100 is 62.5% of $160

To find the decrease we need to subtract 62.5% from 100%

100 - 62.5 = 37.5

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The sample size is  n  = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample standard deviation is  s =  1.5

  The mean difference of the two groups is  \=x _ 1 - \=x_2 =  1

   The standard error is  SE =  \frac{ \= x_1 - \= x_2}{4}

=>                                      SE =  \frac{1}{4}

Let assume that the confidence level is 95% hence the level of significance is  

   \alpha = (100-95)\%

=> \alpha = 0.05

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

     Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96

Generally the margin of error is mathematically evaluated as

     E =  Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * SE    

   E =  1.96 * \frac{1}{4}

    E = 0.49

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

  n =[ \frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2}  * s^2}}{E}]^2

=> n  = [\frac{1.96 * 1.5}{0.49} ]^2

=> n  = 36

Scilla [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3000 W = 3 kW

3 kW(4hr/day)(30 day/month) = 360 kWh/month

360 kWh/month($0.15 / kWh) = $54

So about $75 when you add all the taxes and other fees that get added to a typical electric bill.
