A group of adults and students went on a class trip to Washington, DC. The number of male students was 1 more than 7 times the n

umber of adults. The number of female students was half the number of male students. If the total number of people who went on the trip is 82, find the numbers of male students and female students.

X number of male students
Y number of female students
Z number of the adults
X=(1 + 7)Z=8Z
Y= X/2
X +Y +Z = 82
8Z +8Z/2 +Z=82 implies Z=82/26=3.1
so we take Z= 3

X= 24
and Y = 12

Answer:

We can claim with 95% confidence that the proportion of executives that prefer trucks is between 19.2% and 32.8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a sample of executives, of size n=160, and the proportion that prefer trucks is 26%.

We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the proportion.

The sample proportion is p=0.26.

 

The standard error of the proportion is:

\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.26*0.74}{160}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.0012}=0.0347

The critical z-value for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

MOE=z\cdot \sigma_p=1.96 \cdot 0.0347=0.068

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

LL=p-z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.26-0.068=0.192\\\\UL=p+z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.26+0.068=0.328

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.192, 0.328).

We can claim with 95% confidence that the proportion of executives that prefer trucks is between 19.2% and 32.8%.

Devon exercised the same amount of time each day for 5 days last week. e His exercise included walking and swimming. e Each day
prohojiy [21]
I think that Devon swam at least 35 minutes each day for 5 days because if he exercised 225 minutes and each day he walked for 10 minutes then if you divide 225 by 5 you get 45 so every day he exercised 45 minutes and since he walked for 10 minutes you subtract 10 from 45 which gives you 35 so he swam for 35 minutes.

A person died leaving property worth rs.4000.40. His widow get 0.125 of the property and his son got 0.4 of the remainder. What
belka [17]

Answer:

Widow's Share = Rs 500.05

Son's share = Rs 1400.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Property = 4000.40

Widow get share = 0.125

So, Share of Widow = 0.125 * 4000.40

Widow's Share = Rs 500.05

Remaining Property = 4000.40 - 500.05

Remaining Property = 3500.35

Son's share = 0.4 * 3500.35

Son's share = Rs 1400.14
