Pioneer Chicken advertises "lite" chicken with 30% fewer calories than standard chicken. When the process for "lite" chicken bre

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

$LL = 420 -3\frac{25}{\sqrt{25}}= 405$ represent the lower limit

$UL = 420 +3\frac{25}{\sqrt{25}}= 435$ represent the Upper limit

So then the limits for this case are (405, 435)

Explanation:

Let's define X as our random variable that represent the "number of calories for a chicken breast", and we have the following data:

$\bar X = 420 , \sigma= 25$

The select a sample of 25 chickens , n = 25. And we want to find the limits for a confidence interval within 3 deviations from the mean with z =3.

We assume that the distribution for X is normal. So then the distribution for the sample mean is also normal.

And for this case the confidence interval would be given by:

$(\bar X -z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} < \mu < \bar X -z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

So the limits are defined as:

$LL = \bar X -z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ represent the lower limit

$UL = \bar X +z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ represent the Upper limit

Since we have all the values given we cn replace like this:

$LL = 420 -3\frac{25}{\sqrt{25}}= 405$ represent the lower limit

$UL = 420 +3\frac{25}{\sqrt{25}}= 435$ represent the Upper limit

So then the limits for this case are (405, 435)

Consider the market for pens. Suppose that a new educational study has proven that the practice of writing, erasing, and rewriti

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer: Quantity of pens fall, Change in price ambiguous

Explanation:

The new educational study has proven that the practice of writing, erasing, and rewriting improves students' ability to process information, leading parents to steer away from pen use in favor of pencils. This will lead to a fall in the demand for pens, shifting its demand curve to the left.

Moreover, the price of plastic, an important input in pen production, has increased considerably. This will increase the cost of production of pens, inducing producers to reduce pen supply in the market. The supply curve shifts up to the left.

Both these shifts lead to a fall in the quantity of pen in the market. However, the effect on price cannot be determined as it depends on the magnitude of the two shifts.

Pete the Pizza Man produced $87,000 worth of pizzas in the past year. He paid $39,000 to employees, paid $11,000 for vegetables

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

$133,000

Explanation:

We can find Pete's total contribution to GDP by adding up the following numbers:

$87,000 worth of pizzas - because finished goods are part of GDP

$39,000 paid to employees - because wages are part of GDP

$5,000 paid in taxes - taxes are part of GDP because they are government revenue

$2,000 of inventories at the end of year - end-of-year inventories are included in GDP

Therefore: $87,000 + $39,000 + $5,000 + $2,000 = $133,000

the $11,000 worth of ingredients are not included in GDP because GDP only accounts for finished goods and services.
