The equivalent expression by combining like terms is 0.57b

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Paul received a coupon for 43% off one item  at a clothing store

Let "b" be the original price of item

Given expression is:

New price of item = b - 0.43b

We have to equivalent expression by combining like terms

We can combine the terms with same variable "b"

Therefore,

New price of item = b - 0.43b

Combine b and -0.43b

New price of item = 0.57b

Thus the equivalent expression by combining like terms is 0.57b

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: 15 ounces


Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a company claims the average cereal in boxes of breakfast cereal = 15 ounces

And we know that the mean amount is nothing but the average amount of any data.

Mean is synonym word of average .

The statistical mean is the mean or average that is used to find the central tendency of the data in any question.

Thus, the expected mean amount of cereal per box = 15 ounces.

A student has to take two quizzes tomorrow. He has only enough time to study for one of them. The history quiz has 5 true or fal
nalin [4]

Answer:

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Miguel should study for the Science quiz as he will do worse in that quiz by guessing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Miguel has to take two quizzes

1) 4 true or false questions on History with a 0.5 chance of acing the quiz

Expected number of correct questions = np

n = number of questions

p = probability of acing the test

Expected number of correct questions = 4 × 0.5 = 2

2) 3 multiple choice questions on Science with a 0.2 chance of acing the quiz.

Expected number of correct questions = 0.2 × 3 = 0.6

It is evident that guessing would yield a worse result in the Science quiz with less than 1 question expected to be correct than history, where he is still expected to get 2 questions correctly by guessing.

A survey on healthy choices was given to gym members at Work It Out. The results
irina [24]

Answer:

The correct option is 4) 0.72.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let us consider that there are 100 members.

(Note: you can take any number the answer will remain the same.)

90% of its members drank protein shakes and of the members who drank  protein shakes.

90% of 100 is 90.

Thus, 90 members drank protein shake.

Of the members who drank   protein shakes, 30% took weight-loss medication.

30% of 90 is 27.

That means 27 out of 90 took weight loss medication.

Out of 100 members 90 drank protein shakes that means 10 members does not take protein shakes.

Only 10% of members  who did not drink protein shakes took weight-loss medication.

10% of 10 is 1, that means 1 member out of 10 took weight loss medication.

Thus the required table is:

                                        Medication   Not Medication      Total

Drank shakes                       27                   63                      90

Doesn't Drank shakes          1                      9                        10

Total                                      28                   72                     100

Now we need to find the probability that a gym member does not take weight-loss medication.

72 out of 100 members does not take weight-loss medication.

Therefore, the required probability is: \frac{72}{100}=0.72

Hence, the correct option is 4) 0.72.

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval would be given by (0.326;0.354)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Notation and definitions

X=63 number of people who live within 20 miles of the coast in high hurricane risk counties of eight southern states

n=6138 random sample taken

\hat p=0.34 estimated proportion of people who live within 20 miles of the coast in high hurricane risk counties of eight southern states

p true population proportion of people who live within 20 miles of the coast in high hurricane risk counties of eight southern states

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The population proportion have the following distribution

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

2) Confidence interval

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 98% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.98=0.02 and \alpha/2 =0.01. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-2.33, z_{1-\alpha/2}=2.33

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}

If we replace the values obtained we got:

0.34 - 2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.34(1-0.34)}{6138}}=0.326

0.34 + 2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.34(1-0.34)}{6138}}=0.354

The 98% confidence interval would be given by (0.326;0.354)
