Answer:

Please see the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Now we define the question in this approach

P= # of houses with patio only.

Q= # of houses with pool only.

R= # of houses with patio & pool.

S= # of houses with no patio & no pool.

Given P+Q+R+S=75

& P+R=48

What is Q+R? (1)

Solving the first two equations

Q+S+48=75

Q+S=27 (2)

Now let's look at the statements

Statement 1

P=38 unnecessary and insufficient.

Statement 2

R=S

Substituting in (1)

Q+S?

We know form (2) that Q+S=27

hence sufficient.

zzz [600]

Answer:

  B. 10 months

Step-by-step explanation:

The balance on the loan will be ...

  b = 1600 - 80t . . . . . . where t is the number of months of payments

The balance in the savings account will be ...

  s = 500 + 25t

The savings account balance will be at least as much as the loan balance when ...

  s ≥ b

  500 +25t ≥ 1600 -80t . . . substitute the account balance expressions

  105t ≥ 1100 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 80t -500

  t ≥ 1100/105 ≈ 10.48 ≈ 10

It will take Josh 10 months to have enough savings to pay the loan in full.

_____

<em>Comment on rounding</em>

IMO, it makes no sense to round down, as Josh will NOT have enough in 10 months. He will have enough after he makes one more payment of $80. At 10 months, the loan balance is $50 more than the savings balance. It will be 11 months before there is enough savings to pay off the loan.

"nine times out of ten" means we have 9/10 = 0.90 = 90% confidence interval. 

The center of each interval is 0.80 as this is the mean test score. The margin of error is 0.06 from the statement "within 6% of...". Put another way, the teacher is basically saying that they are 90% confident to find a test score between 74% and 86%

This is because
0.8 - 0.06 = 0.74
0.8 + 0.06 = 0.86

So that's why the confidence interval is (0.74, 0.86)

Nady [450]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The given statement is false. The histograms or bar charts are used when one is given discrete data for a certain value or the interval of a certain range but for the continuous data plotting, we need continuous frequency curves line graphs. Since the ALT levels fall on a continuum, representing them on a bar chart will not make any sense. they should be plotted on some continuous curve distribution lines like smoot line graphs (curves).
