If a stereo is sold for $59.99 and Karen pays $64.19 for it when she checks out, what is the sales tax in the area

Okay, so the first thing you need to do is find the difference.

64.19 - 59.99 = 4.20

So the percentage is determined by dividing that difference by the cost of the item originally:

4.20 / 59.99 = about .07

Next, you change this number to a percentage by moving the decimal to the right two spaces, so that would be 7%.

Therefore, the sales tax in the area is 7%.

Liliana used 444 dark power crystals to raise 141414 zombie soldiers. She wants to know how many zombie soldiers (z)(z)left pare
Mariulka [41]

Question is bit incorrect, Correct question is given below.

Liliana used 4 dark power crystals to raise 14 zombie soldiers. She wants to know how many zombie soldiers (z) she can raise with 10 dark power crystals. How many zombie soldiers can Liliana raise with 10 power crystals?

Answer:

Liliana can raise 35 zombie soldiers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of zombie soldiers raised by 10 dark power crystals be 'z'.

Zombie raised by 4 power crystals = 14

Since the number of zombie and power crystals are in direct proportion.

Therefore, we get

\frac{z}{10}=\frac{14}{4}

Multiply 10 on both the sides, we get

z=\frac{14}{4}\times 10 = 35

Hence, Liliana can raise 35 zombie soldiers.

A survey of 225 students showed the mean number of hours spent studying per week was 20.6 and the standard deviations was 2.7
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The margin of error is approximately 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The following information has been provided;

The sample size, n =225 students

The sample mean number of hours spent studying per week = 20.6

The standard deviation = 2.7

The question requires us to determine the margin of error that would be associated with a 90% confidence level. In constructing confidence intervals of the population mean, the margin of error is defined as;

The product of the associated z-score and the standard error of the sample mean. The standard error of the sample mean is calculated as;

\frac{sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

where sigma is the standard deviation and n the sample size. The z-score associated with a 90% confidence level, from the given table, is 1.645.

The margin of error is thus;

1.645*\frac{2.7}{\sqrt{225}}=0.2961

Therefore, the margin of error is approximately 0.3
