Let y be the total money earned in a day and x be the pairs of shoes sold.
y = 4.5x + 40

Putting y = 112

112 = 4.5x + 40
x = 16 pairs of shoes must be sold to meet the requirement.

A standard weight known to weigh 10 grams. Some suspect bias in weights due to manufacturing process. To assess the accuracy of
notsponge [240]

Answer:

a) The 98% confidence interval for the mean weight is between 10.00409 grams and 10.00471 grams

b) 49 measurements are needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.01

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a pvalue of 1 - 0.01 = 0.99, so Z = 2.327.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 2.327\frac{0.0003}{\sqrt{5}} = 0.00031

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 10.0044 - 0.00031 = 10.00409 grams

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 10 + 0.00031 = 10.00471 grams

The 98% confidence interval for the mean weight is between 10.00409 grams and 10.00471 grams.

(b) How many measurements must be averaged to get a margin of error of +/- 0.0001 with 98% confidence?

We have to find n for which M = 0.0001. So

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

0.0001 = 2.327\frac{0.0003}{\sqrt{n}}

0.0001\sqrt{n} = 2.327*0.0003

\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327*0.0003}{0.0001}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.327*0.0003}{0.0001})^2

n = 48.73

Rounding up

49 measurements are needed.

Three orders are placed at a pizza shop. two small pizzas, a liter of soda, and a salad cost $14; one small pizza, a liter of so
mojhsa [17]
To determine the cost of each item, we need to set up equations. From the problem statement, we have three unknowns so we need three equations. We set up equations as follows:

let x cost of small pizzas
     y cost of soda
     z cost of salad
 
two small pizzas, a liter of soda, and a salad cost $14
2x + y + z = 14

one small pizza, a liter of soda, and three salads cost $15

x + y + 3z = 15

three small pizzas, a liter of soda, and two salads cost $22
3x + y + 2z = 22

Solving for x, y and z, we will have:

x = $ 5
y = $ 1
z = $ 3

Three Rivers publishes a catalog each year, last year it had 198 pages back and front. We
Mama L [17]

Answer:

$222

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find how many ream was used in the printing forts, to determine how much the College spent.

The catalog is 198 pages, back and front, which means, 1 leaf will take 2 pages. Therefore, 99 pages were used in printing 1 copy of the catalog.

No of pages that were used in printing 150 copies = 150*99 = 14,850 pages.

If 500 pages = 1 realm, therefore,

14,850 pages = 14,850/500 = 29.7.

Since, it's a full team that is sold, let's approximate the number of reams bought to be 30 reams.

If 1 ream costs $7.40, therefore,

30 reams = 30*7.40 = $222
