The answer in this question is 97.
0.20 SD = 1.96 SD / sqrt(n)
n = (1.96 / .200)^2
n = 96.04  
Which is rounded Up to 97
The number of observations within the data set must be greater than or equal to the quantity of 97.

Tickets to a show cost $5.50 for adults and $4.25 for students. A family is purchasing 2 adult tickets and 3 student tickets. If
larisa [96]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of an adult ticket to the show is $5.5

The cost of a student ticket to the show is $4.25

A family is purchasing 2 adult tickets and 3 student tickets. This means that the total cost of 2 adult tickets would be

2 × 5.5 = $11

It also means that the total cost of 3 student tickets would be

3 × 4.25 = $12.75

The total cost of 2 adult tickets and 3 student tickets would be

11 + 12.75 = $23.75

If the family pays $25, the exact amount of change they should receive is

25 - 23.75 = $1.25

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a teacher  gives a test to a large group of students. The results are closely approximated by a normal curve

mu =74 and sigma =8

A grade starts from 100-8 = 92nd percentile

Z score for 92nd percentile = 1.405

X score = 74+8(1.405) = 85.24

--------------------

B cut off is to next 16%

Hence C would start for scores below 100-(8+16) = 76%

76th percentile = 0.705*8+74 =79.64

The newest invention of the 6.431x staff is a three-sided die. On any roll of this die, the result is 1 with probability 1/2, 2
Gwar [14]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 0.23(approx).</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given die is a three sided die, hence, there are only three possibilities of getting the outcomes.

We need to find the probability of getting exactly 3s as the result.

From the sequence of 6 independent rolls, 2 rolls can be chosen in ^6C_2 = \frac{6!}{2!\times4!} = \frac{30}{2} = 15 ways.

The probability of getting two 3 as outcome is \frac{1}{4} \times\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{16}.

In the rest of the 4 sequences, will not be any 3 as outcome.

Probability of not getting a outcome rather than 3 is 1 - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4}.

Hence, the required probability is 15\times\frac{1}{16}(\frac{3}{4})^4 = \frac{1215}{4096}≅0.2966 or, 0.23.

Julian is using a biking app that compares his position to a simulated biker traveling Julian's target speed. When Julian is beh
Gwar [14]

Answer:

11 km/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Simulated speed = 20/km/h

Time = 15 mins = 1/4 hr = 0.25 hr

Distance Covered as per simulated speed = 20\times \frac{1}{4}=5km

Position of Julian according to the app = -2\frac{1}{4}=-2.25.

Actual distance covered by the bike is

Distance= 5 - 2.25 = 2.75km

Formula for speed:

\text{Average Speed}=\frac{Distance}{Time}

\text{Average Speed}=\frac{2.75}{0.25}

\text{Average Speed}=11

Therefore, the average speed of Julian is 11 km/hr.
