Answer:

The correct option is;

d. 24.2 to 25.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have a sample with unknown population standard deviation, we therefore apply the student t distribution at 64 - 1 degrees of freedom

Therefore, we have

CI=\bar{x}\pm t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

Where:

\bar x = Mean = 25

σ = Standard deviation = 2

n = Sample size = 64

t = T value at 98% = \pm 2.387

Which gives

CI=25\pm t_{63}\frac{2}{\sqrt{64}}

That is the value is from

24.40325 to 25.59675 which gives,by rounding to one decimal place, is

24.4 to 25.6.

Bentley is working two summer jobs, making $18 per hour lifeguarding and making $8 per hour clearing tables. In a given week, he
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find how much Bentley gets from clearing tables.

5 hours • $8 per hour = $40 total

We can take $40 off his $180 total, leaving the rest for when we figure out how much he needs to work lifeguarding.

$180 needed - $40 earned = $140 left to earn

We know that Bentley makes $18 an hour lifeguarding, so in order to get the number of hours he would need to work in order to make $140, we can divide it by $18.

$140 needed ÷ $18 per hour = 7.77...

We need to convert this to a whole number because we're talking about hours worked, so Bentley would need to work 8 hours lifeguarding to make $140 more. He can only work 15 hours total, so let's check if this exceeds his limit.

5 hours clearing tables + 8 hours lifeguarding = 13 hours < 15 hours max

It is possible to make $180 total from this work schedule, so your answer would be 8 hours.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Groceries is 625 a month

Step-by-step explanation:

25 percent of 2500 is 625. To get this answer take the percent and go back 2 decimal places this will turn 25% into 0.25 then multiply 2500 by 0.25 and the answer is 625. This also is the same with the other values. 0.30 0.15 etc.

a woman is looking for a bigger square office. she finds an office twice the area of her square office. if the perimeter is 88ft
UNO [17]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of current office = 88 ft

We have perimeter = 4a , where a is the side of square.

Equating

4a = 88

a = 22 sqft

Area of current office = a x a = 22 x 22 = 484 square feet.

Area of new office is twice the area of current office.

Area of new office = 2 x 484 = 968 square feet.

Option C is the correct answer.
