lower limit $5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) Upper limit = 7.39

Lower limit = 6.37

Margin of error = 0.51

B)Sample size = 87

C) Upper limit = 2218.50

Lower limit = 1909.50

Margin of error = 154.50

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

x¯ = $6.88 per 100 pounds

σ = $1.98 per 100 pounds

n = 45

A) We want to find a 90% Confidence interval. It means the significance level is; 1 - 0.9 = 0.1

Critical z-value for significance level of 0.1 is z = 1.645

Now, margin of error is;

MOE = zσ/√n

MOE = (1.645 × 1.98)/√40

MOE ≈ 0.51

Confidence interval is;

CI = x¯ ± MOE

CI = 6.88 ± 0.51

CI = ((6.88 + 0.51), (6.88 - 0.51))

CI = (7.39, 6.37)

Upper limit = 7.39

Lower limit = 6.37

B) We are given E = 0.35

Thus;

E = zσ/√n

Rearranging, we have;

n = (zσ/E)²

n = (1.645 × 1.98/0.35)²

n ≈ 87

Sample size = 87

C)We are told that the farm brings 15 tons of watermelon to market.

Also, 1 ton = 2000 pounds

Thus;

15 tons = 15 × 2000 pounds = 30000 pounds

Now this is per 100 pounds.

Thus, we can write as: 30000/100 = 300 pounds

So;

x¯ = 300 × 6.88

x¯ = 2064

σ = 1.98 × 300

σ = 594

Critical z-value for significance level of 0.1 is z = 1.645

Now, margin of error is;

MOE = zσ/√n

MOE = (1.645 × 594)/√40

MOE ≈ 154.50

Confidence interval is;

CI = x¯ ± MOE

CI = 2064 ± 154.50

CI = (2064 + 154.50, 2064 - 154.50)

CI = (2218.5, 1909.5)

Upper limit = 2218.50

Lower limit = 1909.50

The growth of a sample of bacteria can be modeled by the function b(t) =100(1.06)^t where b is the number of bacteria and t is the time in hours. What is the number of total bacteria after 3 hours? Round to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

There are 119 bacteria after 3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be [tex]b(t) = 100\cdot 1.06^{t}[/tex], where [tex]t[/tex] is the time, measured in hours, and [tex]b(t)[/tex] is the number of total bacteria, dimensionless. The number of total bacteria after 3 hours is found after evaluating the function at given function:

[tex]b (3) = 100\cdot 1.06^{3}[/tex]

[tex]b(3) = 119.102[/tex]

We rounded to the nearest preceeding whole number, since number of bacteria represents a discrete set. There are 119 bacteria after 3 hours.

Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary). (-6,5) and (3,-7)​

Now,

D: SQRT ( (X2-X1)^2 + (Y2-Y1)^2) )

= 15

The Answer is 15 Units

The distance between points (-6,5) and (3,-7)​ is 15 units.

How to find the distance between two points?

In the coordinate plane, the points are denoted by coordinate and the distance means the physical distance between them.

Let's consider we have two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) the distance between these two points is given by the formula;

[tex]d = \sqrt {\left( {x_1 - x_2 } \right)^2 + \left( {y_1 - y_2 } \right)^2 }[/tex]

Given the points  (-6,5) and (3,-7)​

Here x₁ = -6 , x₂ = 3

y₁ = 5 and y₂ = -7

So,

[tex]d = \sqrt {\left( {-6 - 3 } \right)^2 + \left( {5 +7 } \right)^2 }[/tex]

d = √225

d = 15 units.

Hence "The distance between points (-6,5) and (3,-7)​ is 15 units".

Answer:

Janisa found that home health care is the fastest-growing occupation and services for the elderly is the fastest growing industry, while Rylan found that elementary and secondary school teaching are the occupations with the highest employment and retail sales is the industry with the highest employment.

Explanation:

We make this conclusion because when we look at all the other options none matches the definition of occupations and industries. However, if Janisa found that home health care is the fastest-growing occupation, and then services for the elderly are the fastest growing industry, it matches what we know an industry and occupation mean.

While, if Rylan found that elementary and secondary school teaching are the occupations with the highest employment, it matches an example of occupation also, and if he discovers that retail sales is the industry with the highest employment it also falls under industry types.

However, the other options mismatched industry examples for occupations.

Because of the relatively high interest rates, most consumers attempt to pay off their credit card bills promptly. However, this is not always possible. An analysis of the amount of interest paid monthly by a bank's Visa cardholders reveals that the amount is normally distributed with a mean of 25 dollars and a standard deviation of 8 dollars. (Round all decimals to at least 3 places.) (a) What proportion of the bank's Visa cardholders pay more than 28 dollars in interest

Answer:

0.354

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve for z score in this question.

The formula is given as:

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = $28

μ is the population mean = $25

σ is the population standard deviation = $8

z= 28 - 25/8

z = 0.375

P-value from Z-Table:

P(x<28) = 0.64617

P(x>28) = 1 - P(x<28)

= 1 - 0.64617

= 0.35383

Approximately to 3 decimal places = 0.354

The proportion of the bank's Visa cardholders pay more than 28 dollars in interest is 0.354.

Step-by-step explanation:

90÷15=6

48÷16=3

3÷2=1.5

Mark me as brainliest if u found it helpful

Using proportional variables, it is found that it will take 1.5 hours for 16 men  to dig a trench 48 m long.

The time needed is direct proportional to the length of the trench, and inverse proportional to the number of men, thus, the equation is:

[tex]t = k\frac{l}{m}[/tex]

In which:

t is the time.k is the constant of proportionality.l is the length of the trench.m is the number of men.

15 men can dig a trench of 90 m long in 3 hours, thus [tex]m = 15, l = 90, t = 3[/tex], this is used to find k.

[tex]t = k\frac{l}{m}[/tex]

[tex]3 = k\frac{90}{15}[/tex]

[tex]6k = 3[/tex]

[tex]k = \frac{3}{6}[/tex]

[tex]k = 0.5[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]t = 0.5\frac{l}{m}[/tex]

16 men, 48m long, thus [tex]l = 48, m = 16[/tex], and the time is:

[tex]t = 0.5\frac{l}{m} = 0.5 \times \frac{48}{16} = 0.5(3) = 1.5[/tex]

It will take 1.5 hours for 16 men  to dig a trench 48 m long.

The mean useful life of car batteries is 48 months. They have a standard deviation of 3. Assume the useful life of batteries is normally distributed. a. Calculate the percent of batteries with a useful life of less than 45 months. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth percent.) b. Calculate the percent of batteries that will last longer than 54 months. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth percent.)

Answers

Answer:

a) 15.9%

b) 2.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

We solving using z score formula. This formula is given as:

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

a. Calculate the percent of batteries with a useful life of less than 45 months. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth percent.)

x = 45, μ = 48, σ = 3

z = 45 - 48/3

= -1

Probability value from Z-Table:

The probability of batteries with a useful life of less than 45 months so

P(x<45) = 0.15866

Converting to percentage

0.15866 × 100 = 15.866

Approximately to the nearest tenth of a percent = 15.9%

b. Calculate the percent of batteries that will last longer than 54 months. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth percent.)

x = 58, μ = 48, σ = 3

z = 58 - 48/3

= 2

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<54) = 0.97725

P(x>54) = 1 - P(x<54)

= 0.02275

The probability of batteries that will last longer than 54 months is 0.02275

Converting to percentage

0.02275 × 100

= 2.275%

Approximately to the nearest tenth of a percentage = 2.3%
