Julie bought $8.64 worth of 57-cent stamps and 30-cent stamps. The number of 30-cent stamps was 6 less than the number of 57-cent stamps. Solve the equation 0.57 s + 0.3 ( s − 6 ) = 8.64 for s , to find the number of 57-cent stamps that Julie bought.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of 57-cent stamps that Julie bought is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation

0.57 s + 0.3 ( s − 6 ) = 8.64

Open bracket

0.57s + 0.3s - 1.8 = 8.64

Collect like terms

0.87s = 8.64 + 1.8

0.87s = 10.44

Divide both sides by 0.87

s = 12

The number of 57-cent stamps that Julie bought is 12

The stemplot shows the number of magazines sold by students in a band. One data value was inadvertently omitted from the stemplot. A stemplot titled magazines sold has values 8, 9, 12, 12, 13, 15, 16, 16, 16, 18, 21, 22, 23, 27, 28, 32, 34, 40. Which statement is true? If the missing data value was 55, the range of the data would change significantly. If the missing data value was 55, the interquartile range of the data would change significantly. If the missing data value was 22, the range of the data would change significantly. If the missing data value was 22, the interquartile range of the data would change significantly.

Answers

Answer:

If the missing data value was 55, the range of the data would change significantly

If the missing data value was 22, the interquartile range of the data would change significantly

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data

8, 9, 12, 12, 13, 15, 16, 16, 16, 18, 21, 22, 23, 27, 28, 32, 34,40

The range of the data is the difference between the highest value and the lowest value of the data.

Highest value = 40

Lowest value = 8

Range = 40-8

Range = 32

If 55 was missing, we need yo find the range of the data if 55 was included.

Highest value will be 55

Lowest value = 8

Range in this case = 55-8

Range = 47

Difference in range = 47-32= 15

This means that if 55 was missing, it will significantly affect the value of the range.

- Interquartile range = Q3-Q1

Q3 is the median value of the other half of the data.

Q1 is the median value of the first half of the data.

If 55 wasn't included, the first part of the data:

8, 9, 12, 12), 13, (15, 16, 16, 16

Q1 = 13 (median value of the extracted data)

The second part of the data if 55 wasn't included:

18, 21, 22, 23), 27, (28, 32, 34, 40

Q3 = 27 (median value of the second part of the data)

IQR = Q3-Q1

IQR = 27-13

IQR = 14

If 55 was included, the data will be;

8, 9, 12, 12, 13, 15, 16, 16, 16, 18, 21, 22, 23, 27, 28, 32, 34, 40,55

Q1 = N+1/4 the value

N is the sample size = 19

Q1 = 19+1/4

Q1 = 20/4

Q1 = 5th value

The 5th value in the data is 13, hence Q1 is 13

Q3 = 3(N+1)/4th value

Q3 = 3(19+1)/4

Q3 = 60/4

Q3 is the 15th value in the dataset. Since the 15th value is 28, Q3 is 28

IQR = 28-13

IQR = 15 (if 55 was included)

Difference in IQR = 15-14 = 1

This means that if 55 was the missing data, the IQR will not change significantly.

Note that the range of the data will not change if the missing value is 22 because, the 22 is a value lower than the highest value of the dataset, hence the range will remain the same (40-8 = 32) irrespective of 22 missing or not.

For the Interquartile range

If 22 was in

Q3 = 3(N+1)/4th value

Q3 = 3(19+1)/4

Q3 = 60/4

Q3 is the 15th value in the dataset. Since the 15th value is 28, Q3 is 28

IQR = 28-13

IQR = 15 (if 55 was included)

Difference in IQR = 15-14 = 1

This means that if 55 was the missing data, the IQR will not change significantly.

Based on the calculation, the correct options are:

- If the missing data value was 55, the range of the data would change significantly

- If the missing data value was 22, the interquartile range of the data would change significantly

The probability that a truck will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin is about 75%. Suppose a random sample of five trucks are observed on this stretch of I-77. a. Find the mean of this probability distribution. Show the formula and your work. b. Interpret the mean in the context of the problem. c. Find the standard deviation of this probability distribution. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. d. Find the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding. e. Find the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding.

Answers

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of trucks that will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin.

The probability of X is, p = 0.75.

A random sample of n = 5 trucks are observed on this stretch of I-77.

The random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameters n = 5 and p = 0.75.

(a)

Compute the mean as follows:

[tex]\mu=n\times p=5\times 0.75=3.75[/tex]

The mean of this probability distribution is 3.75.

(b)

The mean of 3.75 implies that on average 3.75 trucks that will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin.

(c)

Compute the standard deviation as follows:

[tex]\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{5\times 0.75\times (1-0.75)}=0.968[/tex]

Thus, the standard deviation of this probability distribution is 0.97.

(d)

Compute the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding as follows:

[tex]P(X=3)={5\choose 3}(0.75)^{3}(1-0.75)^{5-3}\\\\=10\times 0.421875\times 0.0625\\\\=0.263671875\\\\\approx 0.2637[/tex]

Thus, the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding is 0.2637.

(e)

Compute the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding as follows:

[tex]P(X<3)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)\\\\=\sum\limits^{2}_{x=0}{{5\choose x}(0.75)^{x}(1-0.75)^{5-x}}\\\\=0.0009765625+0.0146484375+0.087890625\\\\=0.103515625\\\\\approx 0.1035[/tex]

Thus, the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding is 0.1035.

Answers

Answer: 4.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

Percentage error = Actual value - expected value / expected value * 100

= 36 - 34.6 / 34.6 * 100

= 1.4/34.6 * 100

of flour in the bag. What is the percent of decrease in the amount of flour? Round the percent to the nearest tenth if necessary?

The answer is not 32 or 43.4.

Answers

Answer:

56.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate percent decrease, you first subtract the original number with the final number.

2.26 - 0.98 = 1.28

Then, you divide your answer by the original number.

1.28/2.26 = 0.56637168141

Finally, you multiply your answer by 100 and round as necessary.

0.56637168141 x 100 = 56.637168141
