Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)/Let x represent the amount of money earned by the World Issues club for all their fundraising activities this year.

Let y represent the revenue generated for the foundation.

b) The World Issues club has decided to donate 60% of all their fundraising activities this year to Stephen Lewis Foundation. Therefore, an equation that will determine the amount of money the foundation will receive is

60/100 × x = y

0.6x = y

You plan to work for 40 years and then retire using a 25-year annuity. You want to arrange a retirement income of $4000 per mont
Molodets [167]

Answer:

  $311.74

Step-by-step explanation:

A financial calculator computes the payment amount to be $311.74.

___

Your graphing calculator may have the capability to do this. Certainly, such calculators are available in spreadsheet programs and on the web.

___

The appropriate formula is the one for the sum of terms of a geometric series.

  Sn = a1·((1+r)^n -1)/(r) . . . . . where r is the monthly interest rate (0.005) and n is the number of payments (480). Filling in the given numbers, you have ...

  $620827.46 = a1·(1.005^480 -1)/.005 = 1991.4907·a1

Then ...

  $620827.46/1991.4907 = a1 ≈ $311.74

The Acme Candy Company claims that​ 60% of the jawbreakers it produces weigh more than 0.4 ounces. Suppose that 800 jawbreakers
vichka [17]

Answer:

Yes, it would be statistically significant

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given are;

The percentage of jawbreakers it produces that weigh more than 0.4 ounces = 60%

Number of jawbreakers in the sample, n = 800

The mean proportion of jawbreakers that weigh more than 0.4 = 60% = 0.6 = \mu _ {\hat p} =p

The formula for the standard deviation of a proportion is \sigma  _{\hat p} =\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n} }

Solving for the standard deviation gives;

\sigma  _{\hat p} =\sqrt{\dfrac{0.6 \cdot (1-0.6)}{800} } = 0.0173

Given that the mean proportion is 0.6, the expected value of jawbreakers that weigh more than 0.4  in the sample of 800 = 800*0.6 = 480

For statistical significance the difference from the mean = 2×\sigma _{\hat p} = 2*0.0173 = 0.0346 the equivalent number of Jaw breakers = 800*0.0346 = 27.7

The z-score of 494 jawbreakers is given as follows;

Z=\dfrac{x-\mu _{\hat p} }{\sigma _{\hat p}  }

Z=\dfrac{494-480 }{0.0173  } = 230.94

Therefore, the z-score more than 2 ×\sigma _{\hat p} which is significant.

What is the fifth term of the geometric sequence?<br> a1 = 120, a2 = 36, a3 = 10.8, a6 = 0.2916
Alisiya [41]
R = a2/a1 = 36/120 = 0.2

a5 = a1 * r^4 = 120 * 0.2^4 = 120 * 0.0016 = 0.192


Hope it helps!

What are the solutions to the equation 0 = x2 – x –6? Select two options
KatRina [158]

Answer:

x=3 or x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is factorable.

The leading coefficient is 1.

Since this is a quadratic all we have to do is find two numbers that multiply to be c and add up to be b to factor the expression that is to the left of the equal sign.

By the way a quadratic expression looks like ax^2+bx+c.

So we want to find two numbers that multiply to be -6 and add up to be -1.

Those numbers are -3 and 2 since (-3)(2)=-6 and -3+2=-1.

So the factored form is:

(x-3)(x+2)=0.

Since we have a product is zero then at least one of the factors need to be zero in order for the equation to hold.

So this means we have the following two equations to solve:

x-3=0 or x+2=0

First equation we will add 3 on both sides.

Second equation we will subtract 2 on both sides.

x=3 or x=-2
