A recent survey of 8,000 high school students found that the mean price of a prom dress was $195.00 with a standard deviation of

$12.00. Alyssa thinks that her school is more fashion conscious and spent more than $195.00. She collected data from 20 people in her high school and found that the average price spent on a prom dress was $208.00. Which of the following is the correct z-statistic for this situation?

To calculate the z-statistic, we must first calculate the standard error.

Standard error is standard deviation divided by the square root of the population. In this case, it is equal to 2.68.

The z-score is defined the distance from the sample to the population mean in units of standard error.

z = (195 – 208)/2.68 = -4.86

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

[x(x - 1)(x - 4)]/(2(x + 4))

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find;

[(x² - 16)/(2x + 8)] * [(x³ - 2x² + x)/(x² + 3x - 4)]

Now,

x² - 16 can be factorized as;

(x + 4)(x - 4)

Also, 2x + 8 can be factorized as;

2(x + 4)

Also, (x³ - 2x² + x) can factorized as;

x[x² - 2x + 1] = x[(x - 1)(x - 1)]

Also,(x² + 3x - 4) can be factorized out as; (x - 1)(x + 4)

So plugging in these factorized forms into the equation in the question, we have;

[(x + 4)(x - 4)/(2(x + 4))] * [x[(x - 1)(x - 1)] /((x - 1)(x + 4))

This gives;

((x - 4)/2) * x(x - 1)/(x +4)

This gives;

[x(x - 1)(x - 4)]/(2(x + 4))

Two percent of the customers of a store buy cigars. Half of the customers who buy cigars buy beer. 25 percent who buy beer buy c
enyata [817]

Answer:

0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the probability that a customer neither buys beer nor buys cigars is given below;

Given that, the probabilities are

The customers who purchased cigars be 0.02

The customers who purchased cigars + beer 0.50

And, the customers who purchased beer + cigars be 0.25

Now the probabilities where the customer purchased both

= 0.05 × 0.02

= 0.10

The probability where the customer purchased beer is

= 0.01 ÷ 0.25

= 0.04

Now the probability where a customer neither buys beer nor buys cigars is

= 1 - 0.02 + 0.04 - 0.01

= 0.95

The formula used to find the length of a line segment is the same formula as the Pythagoras theorem.

We take CD as the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle and the distance between the x-coordinates and y-coordinates as the length of two short sides.

We can write the formula as
CD = \sqrt{( x_{1}- x_{0})  ^{2}+ ( y_{1}- y_{0})  ^{2}  }
CD = \sqrt{(a-0)^{2}+ (b-b)^{2}  }

Izumi is running on a quarter-mile oval track. After running 110 yards, his coach records his time as 16 seconds.
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

14.04 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is asking for Izumi's speed. The formula of speed is:

  • s = \frac{d}{t} , where "s" means speed, "d" means distance and "t" means time.

The problem is also asking for the unit<u> miles per hou</u>r (\frac{miles}{hour}) so, this means that we have to know how many miles Izumi ran, given that the problem only mentioned<u> yards (110 yards).</u>

Let's convert 110 yards to miles, provided that he Izumi ran 1,760 yards in a mile.

  • 110 yards ÷ 1760 \frac{yards}{mile} = 0.0625 miles (this is the distance covered by Izumi in miles)

Let's go back again to the formula: s = \frac{d}{t}

s = \frac{0.0625 miles}{16 seconds} = 0.0039 \frac{miles}{sec}

Since, the we arrived at a miles per second unit, we have to convert it to miles per hour.

So, if a minute has 60 seconds, then an hour has 3,600 seconds.

Thus, 0.0039 \frac{miles}{sec} × 3,600 \frac{seconds}{hour} = 14.04 miles per hour (the answer)
