You offer senior citizens a 20% discount on their tune-ups at your gas station. Assuming that an average of 50 senior citizens g

et a tune-up monthly at your station and that the average price of a tune-up before discount is $49.95, how much total discount do you give on an average monthly basis?

Percentage of discount given to senior citizens for tune-ups at the gas station = 20%
Average number of senior citizens visiting the gas station per month = 50
Average price of tune-up before discount = $49.95
Total amount that would
have been collected before discount = 49.95 * 50
                                                           = 2497.50 dollars
Total amount of discount given = (20/100) * 2497.50
                                                  = 499.50 dollars
I hope that the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

frutty [35]

Answer:

The correlation coeffcient for this case was provided:

r =0.934

And this coefficient is very near to 1 the maximum possible value, so then we can interpret that the relationship between the entrace exam score and the grade point average are strongly linearly correlated .

We can also find the r^2 who represent the determination coefficient and we got:

r^2 = 0.934^2= 0.872

And the interpretation for this is that a linear model explains appproximately 87.2% of the variability between the two variables

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:  

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}  

The correlation coeffcient for this case was provided:

r =0.934

And this coefficient is very near to 1 the maximum possible value, so then we can interpret that the relationship between the entrace exam score and the grade point average are strongly linearly correlated .

We can also find the r^2 who represent the determination coefficient and we got:

r^2 = 0.934^2= 0.872

And the interpretation for this is that a linear model explains appproximately 87.2% of the variability between the two variables

During the 2015-16 NBA season, J.J. Redick of the Los Angeles Clippers had a free throw shooting percentage of 0.901 . Assume th
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: 0.5898

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  J.J. Redick of the Los Angeles Clippers had a free throw shooting percentage of 0.901 .

We assume that,

The probability that .J. Redick makes any given free throw =0.901  (1)

Free throws are independent.

So it is a binomial distribution .

Using binomial probability formula, the probability of getting success in x trials :

P(X=x)^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

, where n= total trials

p= probability of getting in each trial.

Let x be binomial variable that represents the number of a=makes.

n= 14

p= 0.901     (from (1))

The probability that he makes at least 13 of them will be :-

P(x\geq13)=P(x=13)+P(x=14)

=^{14}C_{13}(0.901)^{13}(1-0.901)^1+^{14}C_{14}(0.901)^{14}(1-0.901)^0\\\\=(14)(0.901)^{13}(0.099)+(1)(0.901)^{14}\ \ [\because\ ^nC_n=1\ \&\ ^nC_{n-1}=n ]\\\\\approx0.3574+0.2324=0.5898

∴ The required probability = 0.5898

There are 3 feet in 1 yard. This is equivalent to 12 feet in 4 yards. Which proportion can be used to represent this?
Troyanec [42]

Proportion which can be used to represent equivalency of 3 feet in 1 yard and 12 feet in 4 yard is 3 : 1 : : 12 : 4

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that

There are 3 feet in one yard  

And there are 12 feet in 4 yard  

Number of feet in one yard = 3 that is feet  : yard = 3 : 1  

Number of feet in 4 yards = 12 that is feet : yard = 12 : 4  

And 3 feet in 1 yard is equivalent to 12 feet in 4 yards means

\frac{3}{1}=\frac{12}{4}

That is 3 : 1 : : 12 : 4

A proportion is statement that two ratios are equal. It can be written in two ways: as two equal fractions a/b = c/d; or using a colon, a : b = c : d

Hence proportion which can be used to represent equivalency of 3 feet in 1 yard and 12 feet in 4 yard is 3 : 1 :: 12 : 4
