Brenna is buying 4.25 feet of ribbon for $1.95 a foot. She determines the product of the two numbers to determine the actual cos

t of the length of ribbon. Which expression will result in the best estimate for Brenna to use to check her multiplication?

Answer:

The correct answer to this question is 2.55 not 0.255 but even though those are the right numbers the 2 and the decimal point is in the wrong place so you just had the right numbers but the wrong

Answer:

4.25 feet of ribbon cost around $ 8.29

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Length of ribbon to be bought by Brenna = 4.25 feet

Cost of 1 foot of ribbon = $1.95

Total or actual cost of the ribbon =

\text{Total length of ribbon}\times \text{Cost per unit length of ribbon}

Cost of ribbon to be purchased by Brenna =

\text{Estimation of cost of ribbon:}

4.25\times 1.95 = 8.2875 \approx \$8.29

Thus, to find the actual cost Brenna should use the product of total length of ribbon to be bought and the unit cost of the ribbon.

Hence, 4.25 feet of ribbon cost around $ 8.29

Test the given claim. Identify the null​ hypothesis, alternative​ hypothesis, test​ statistic, P-value, and then state the concl
never [62]

Answer:

a) Failed to reject the null hypothesis (P-value=0.09).

b) The 95% CI for the difference in proportions is:

-0.0599\leq\pi_1-\pi_2\leq0.0124

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We have to perform a hypothesis test for the difference of proportions.

The null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \pi_1\geq\pi_2\\\\H_1: \pi_1

The significance level is 0.05.

The proportion of the passenger cars owners is:

p_1=\frac{239}{2142} =0.1116

The proportion of commercial truck owners is:

p_2=\frac{54}{399}=0.1353

The weigthed average p is

p=\frac{n_1p_1+n_2p_2}{n_1+n_2}=\frac{239+54}{2142+399}=0.1153

The estimated standard deviation is

s=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\frac{p(1-p)}{n_2}} =\sqrt{\frac{0.1153(1-0.1153)}{2142}+\frac{0.1153(1-0.1153)}{399}} =0.0174

We can calculate the z-value as:

z=\frac{\Delta p}{s}=\frac{0.1116-0.1353}{0.0174}=-1.362

The P-value for z=-1.362 is P=0.0866.

The P-value (0.09) is greater than the significance level (0.05), so it failed to reject the null hypothesis. There is no enough evidence to prove that commercial trucks owners violate laws requiring front license plates at a higher rate than owners of passenger cars.

b) We can construct a 95% CI, according to the significance level of 0.05.

The z-value for this CI is 1.96.

We have to recalculate the standard deviation:

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{p_1(1-p_1)}{n_1} +\frac{p_2(1-p_2)}{n_2}} =\sqrt{\frac{0.1116(1-0.1116)}{2142} +\frac{0.1353(1-0.1353)}{399}} =0.0184

The lower limit is then:

LL=(p_1-p_2)-z*\sigma=(0.1116-0.1353)-1.96*0.0184=-0.0238-0.0361\\\\LL=-0.0599

The upper limit is:

UL=(p_1-p_2)+z*\sigma=(0.1116-0.1353)+1.96*0.0184=-0.0238+0.0361\\\\UL=0.0124

The 95% CI for the difference in proportions is:

-0.0599\leq\pi_1-\pi_2\leq0.0124

In this case, we can conclude that the difference between the proportions, with 95% confidence, can still be equal or greater than zero, meaning that it is possible passenger car owners violate laws more than truck owners.

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data below :

312 2753 2595 6057 7624 6624 6362 6575 7760 7085 7272 5967 5256 6160 6238 6709 7193 5631 6490 6682 7829 7091 6871 6230 7253 5507 5676 6974 6915 4999 5689 6143 7086

The maximum value = 7829

Minimum value = 312

Range (maximum - minimum) = (7829 - 312) = 7517

Mode(most frequently occurring) = all observations occur once

Median = 1/2 (n+1)th term

= 1/2 (33+1) = 1/2 (34) = 17th term = 6490 (after rearranging in ascending order)

Mean(m) = Σ(X) /number of observations (n) = (201608)/33 = 6109.33

Variance = Σ(x - m)² / n = 78234131 / 33 = 2370731.2

Standard deviation = sqrt(variance) = sqrt(2370731.2) = 1539.7179

An aquarium with a square base has no top. There is a metal frame. Glass costs 5 dollars/m2 and the frame costs 2 dollars/m. The
adell [148]

Answer:

C = 420/h + 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be the side of the square base.

Let h be the height

Volume = s*h

20 = s*h

s = 20/h

Cost of glass is

5(20/h) + 5(4* h*20/h)

= 100/h + 400

Cost of frame is

2*4(20/h) + 2*4(20/h)

= 160/h + 160/h

= 320/h

Total cost = C

C = cost of glass + cost of frame

C = 100/h + 400 + 320/h

C = 420/h + 400
