$15 * .06= tax
or $15(.06)= tax

just multiply the price by the decimal form of the sales tax to get the tax amount.

Imagine that you have plotted many data points on an xy-plane. Your points seem to align into a clear best-fit line. Do you thin

sattari [20]

It depends really. If you stay close to the present, then predicting future results isn't too bad. The further you go out, the more unpredictable things get. This is because the points may deviate from the line of best fit (aka regression line) as time wears on. Of course, it also depends on what kind of data we're working with. Some pairs of variables are naturally going to correlate very strongly together. An example would be temperature versus ice cream sales.

We want to estimate the population mean within 5, with a 99% level of confidence. the population standard deviation is estimated

pashok25 [27]

A sample size of 60 is required.

We use the formula
$n=(\frac{z*\sigma}{E})^2$

We first find the z-score associated with this level of confidence:
Convert 99% to a decimal: 99/100 = 0.99
Subtract from 1: 1-0.99 = 0.01
Divide by 2: 0.01/2 = 0.005
Subtract from 1: 1-0.005 = 0.995

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this value is equally distant from 2.57 and 2.58; therefore we will use 2.575:

$n=(\frac{15(2.575)}{5})^2=59.68\approx60$

Bob has some 10 lb weights and some 3 lb weights. Together, all his weights add up to 50 lbs. If x represents the number of 3 lb

Romashka [77]

Total weight = 50 lb
x = number of 3-lb weights
y = number of 10-lb weights

weight of 3-lb weights = 3x
weight of 10-lb weights = 10y
total weight = 3x + 10y

equation
3x + 10y = 50

A cake has a mass of 2.5kg. It contains 275g of fruit. What percentage of fruit is there in the cake

Travka [436]

The answer is: "11 %" .
__________________________________
There is 11% of fruit in the cake.
______________________________
Explanation:
____________________________________

275g is what percent of 2.5 kg?

First, convert "275 g" into "kg".

Note the exact conversion: 1000 g = 1 kg .

So 275 g = (275/1000) kg = 0.275 kg .

0.275 kg = (n/100) * 2.5 kg ;

→ (n/100) * 2.5 = 0.275 ;
____________________________
Divide each side by "(2.5)"
______________________
→ (n/100) = (0.275) / (2.5) ;

→ (n/100) = 0.11 ;

Multiply each side by "100" ;

n = 11 .
________________________________________
The answer is: 11 % .
