Income tax returns show that the mean income of self-employed persons in a particular year was £15,000, with a standard deviation of £975. A random sample of 169 returns from people in the clothing industry gave a mean income of £14,500. Did this indicate that income from self-employment in the clothing industry was significantly different?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, There is significant difference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Null Hypothesis , H0 : Mean income = 15000

Alternate Hypothesis , H1 : Mean income  ≠  15000

t = (x - u) / ( s / √n)

x = sample mean = 14500 here, u = population mean = 15000 here ,             s = standard deviation =  975 here  , n = sample size

t = (14500 - 15000) / (975 / √169)

-500 / 75 = - 6.66

As  calculated t value in absolute terms is > 1.96 , ie tabulated value at 95% significance level (two sided). So we reject the null hypothesis in favor of alternate hypothesis. Hence, we state that 'Mean Income ≠  15000'

A number, x, is 4 times another number, y. The difference
between the two numbers is 18. What is the value of the
larger number?

Answers

Answer:

The value of the larger number is

[tex]x=24[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A number, x, is 4 times another number, y.

[tex]x=4y[/tex] --------- (1)

The difference between the two numbers is 18.

[tex]x-y=18[/tex] -------(2)

Re-arranging equation (2) yields

[tex]-y=18-x\\y=x-18[/tex]------------- (3)

Substitute y=x-18 in equation (1)

[tex]x=4 (x-18)[/tex]

[tex]x=4x-72\\x-4x=-72[/tex]

[tex]-3x=-72\\x=\frac{72}{3}\\x=24[/tex]

Substitute x=24 in equation (3)

1.2^a x 2^5 =2^0

a=?

Answers

Answer:

One thing that is unclear here is whether the "1." at the start is part of the number "1.2" or if it is an enumeration of the question, and the base raised to the exponent is in fact 2.

The rest of the equation seems to indicate the latter, so we'll solve both:

If 1.2ᵃ ₓ 2⁵ = 2⁰, then a is approximately equal to -19.009.

If as I'm guessing is the correct question, 2ᵃ ₓ 2⁵ = 2⁰, then a is equal to -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Interpretation #1:

[tex]1.2^a \times 2^5 = 2^0\\1.2^a \times 32 = 1\\1.2^a = \frac{1}{32}\\log_{1.2} \frac{1}{32} = a\\a \approx -19.009[/tex]

Interpretation #2:

Here the question is much simpler, as we need only add the exponents when adding and dividing:

[tex]2^a \times 2^5 = 2^0\\2^a = 2^0 \div2^5\\2^a = 2^{-5}\\a = -5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Classroom A has n students.

Since Classroom B has 4 less students, they have (n - 4) students.

Also Classroom C has double the students in B, so they have 2(n - 4) students.

We have A + B + C = 40.

=> n + (n - 4) + 2(n - 4) = 40

=> n + n - 4 + 2n - 8 = 40

=> 4n - 12 = 40

=> 4n = 52, n = 13.

Hence there are 13 students in Classroom A.

Answer: x = 4 and y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 4y = -4

2x = -4 - 4y

x = -2 - 2y

Now that we have solved the first equation for x, we plug (-2 - 2y) into the other equation in place of x and then solve for y.

3(-2 -2y) + 5y = -3

-6 - 6y + 5y = -3

-y = 3

y = -3

Now that we know y, we plug it into the original equation and solve for x.

2x + 4(-3) = -4

2x + -12 = -4

2x = 8

x = 4

You can check the answer by plugging both x and y into either of the original equations.

Answers

Answer:

140

Step-by-step explanation:

7- Cranberry

2:Grape = 40 so 40/2 = 1

1= 20 juices

7+2+3 is 12

20 x 12 is 140

40/2=a factor of 20

7+2+3=12, so multiply that by a factor of 20.

20*12=240 total juice bottles is the answer
