Suppose that you want to estimate average income in a population. If the standard deviation of income in the population is $1,00
Alik [6]

Answer:

2401

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we want to estimate average income in a population.

The standard deviation of income in the population is $1,000

We want confidence interval around our estimate to be +/- $40

i.e Margin of error = 40

We know that margin of error = Std error * Z critical for 95%

i.e. 40 = 1.96 * std error

Std error = \frac{std dev}{\sqrt{n} } \\=\frac{1000}{\sqrt{n} }

Together we get

40=1.96(\frac{1000}{\sqrt{n} } )\\\sqrt{n} =\frac{1000*1.96}{40} \\=49\\n=2401\\

Your sister helped you get a dream job at a designer clothing store and one of the perks of the job is that you get 15% off all
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

$197.30 revenue.

Step-by-step explanation:

As long as we realise that 15% = $237.50 total revenue - 15% of that revenue $40.20 and the other 15% was totaled prior and kept to one side as seen as expenditure.

revenue = r  clothing purchase = p

r = (25 x 10 -12.50) - (p15% of e235)

r = (250 - 12.50) -( e235- p23.5 +11.73)

r = (237.50) - (expenditure 235- p35.73)

r = 237.50 -(expenditure 199.27)

r= 237.50

e = 199.27

p = 35.73

Answer with out including expenditure your sister revenue was $237.50

The 15% deduction cannot be confused with the deduction from clothes.

If we were to calculate 15% of $237.50 this would be 23.7+ 16.85 =$40.2

A different  Salary related 15% contribution payments = $40.20

If these were taken from $237.50

Then $237.50- $40.20 = $197.30 revenue, but we do not have to show expenditure in the total only the workings, which is still owed being $199.27- $40.20 already paid towards.

Extension = This means because $40.20 was deducted then expenditure still to be deducted outside of the question would be   e. $199.27 - $40.20 = 159.07 still owed. Saying that the 15% was to pay your sisters contribution to the clothes and not to the state.
