Step-by-step explanation:
The “fun size” of a Snickers bar is supposed to weigh 20 grams. Because the penalty for selling Snickers candy bars that weigh less than 20 grams is so severe, the manufacturer calibrates the machine so that the mean weight is 20.2 grams. The quality control manager at the candy company is concerned that the candy produced does not weigh 20.2 grams. She obtains a random sample of 64 candy bars and weighs them. She finds that the mean weight of this sample is 20.05 grams with standard deviation 0.72. By answering the following questions, test the claim that the Snickers bars have a mean weight less than 20.2 grams at the level of α = 0.01.
1. Select from the following list all the requirements that are met in this problem scenario for this test: (circle your choice(s))
a. The population is approximately normal.
b. The population standard deviation is known.
c. The sample taken is a random sample.
d. The population standard deviation is unknown. e
. The degrees of freedom is 0.01.
f. The sample size is greater than 30.
2. Which of the following statements is correct?
a) Parameters describe sample characteristics.
b) Statistics describe population characteristics.
c) We use statistics to estimate the value of parameters.
d) We use parameters to estimate the value of statistics
Expert Answer
The percent of Snickers bars which have a mass more than 21.5 grams is equal to 2.28%.
To find the percentage of Snickers bars with a mass more than 21.5 grams,
use the concept of standard normal distribution.
Calculate the z-score for 21.5 grams.
The z-score is a measure of how many standard deviations a particular value is away from the mean. It can be calculated using the formula:
z = (x - μ) / σ
where x is the value we want to find the z-score for, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation.
Here
x = 21.5 grams
μ = 20.1 grams (mean)
σ = 0.7 grams (standard deviation)
z = (21.5 - 20.1) / 0.7
z = 1.4 / 0.7
z = 2
The percentage of values greater than the z-score in the standard normal distribution calculator.
The percentage of values greater than 2 standard deviations from the mean is approximately 2.28%.
Therefore, approximately 2.28 percent of Snickers bars have a mass more than 21.5 grams.

It takes 1.5 gallons of paint to cover the walls in 3 rooms. Write an equation relating the number of rooms r to the number of gallons g. How many rooms can be painted using 9 gallons of paint?
Answer:
18 rooms.
Step-by-step explanation:
Because it takes 1.5 gallons of paint to cover the walls in 3 rooms, if we divide on 3 on each side, we will get 0.5 gallons of paint per room.
The equation is r = 0.5g.
If we apply this formula, and multiply both sides by 18, we will get 18r = 9g.
The answer is 18 rooms.

the meal cost 54.65 the sales tax is 8% of the meal the tip was 18% of the meal and tax there are 5 people in the holcombe family what was the cost per person for the meal
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
total meal cost = meal cost + tax cost + tip cost
[tex]\frac{8}{100} *54.65 = cost of sales tax\\\frac{18}{100} * 54.65 = tip cost\\cost of sales tax = .08 * 54.65 = 4.372\\tip cost = .18 * 54.65 = 9.837\\\\total cost = 54.65 + 4.372 + 9.837 = 68.859\\\\since we have 5 members\\\\individual cost = total cost / 5\\=68.859/5\\=13.7718[/tex]

Which shows how to solve the equation 3/4x = -6 for x in one step?
Answer:
The first option 3/4(4/3)x=-6(4/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide by 3/4 (so multiply 3/4 by 4/3) to cancel out the 3/4 so that only x is on that side.
You are thinking of withdrawing all your funds; $45,000 from your 401 (k) at age 54. The normal tax rate for you would be 28%. The rules for withdrawing funds before the age of 59 1/2 is a 10% penalty. How much would you save if you waited until age 59 1/2?
Until the age of [tex]59.5[/tex] years, the amount saved from the withdrawal of funds is [tex]\$3,600.[/tex]
Used the concept of tax which states that,
A tax is an obligatory payment made by the taxpayer to the government in respect of the income earned in the previous year.
Given values:
Amount of funds: [tex]\$45,000[/tex]
Normal tax rate: [tex]20\%[/tex]
Penalty rate at [tex]59.5[/tex] years: [tex]10\%[/tex]
Step-1; Computation of after-tax amount paid at 54 years:
[tex]A_1= \text{Amount of funds} \times (1 - \text{Tax rate})[/tex]
[tex]= \$45,000 \times (1 - 0.2)[/tex]
[tex]= \$36,000[/tex]
Step-2; Computation of after-tax amount paid at 59.5 years:
[tex]A_2 = \text{Amount of funds} \times (1 - \text{Tax rate}) (1 - \text{Penalty rate})[/tex]
[tex]= \$45,000 \times (1 - 0.20) \times (1 - 0.10)[/tex]
[tex]= \$32,400[/tex]
Step-3; Computation of the amount saved;
[tex]\text{Amount saved} = A_1 - A_2\\= \$36,000 - \$32,400\\= \$3,600[/tex]
Therefore, the amount [tex]\$3,600.[/tex] was saved with the amount of [tex]\$36,000[/tex] paid-in [tex]54[/tex] years and the amount of [tex]\$32,400[/tex] paid-at [tex]59.5[/tex] years.

I took a test with a question like that
My son, Garrett, is 11 years old and has a piggy bank that he wants to fill. He started with 5 one dollar bills. Every Saturday he earns 3 more dollar bills for chores he’s completed. How many one dollar bills will he have by the end of 10 weeks?
1. Write a function model, M(x), that represents the total number of one dollar bills garret will have in one dollar bills, x
2. Identify the independent and dependent quantity.
3. The domain and range are represented as discrete or continuous?
4.What is a reasonable domain and range for this scenario?
Thanks for the help!
Answer:
1) M(x) = 5 + 3x
2) Dependent variable; 3 dollar bills
Independent variable: chores
3) Range is continuous
Domain is discrete
4) Range: 0 ≤ x ≤ 10
Domain: 5 ≤ M ≤ 35
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told he started with 5 number of $1 dollar bills and that every Saturday, he earns 3 more $1 dollar bill.
Thus, total number of $1 bills earned after x number of Saturdays(weekly) is;
M(x) = 5 + 3x
After 10 weeks, total number is;
M(10) = 5 + 3(10)
M(10) = 35
The dependent variable is the 3 more dollar bills earned each Saturday because it depends on chores he completed. While the independent variable is the chores because it doesn't depend on anything.
After 10 weeks, the range and domain will be;
Range: 0 ≤ x ≤ 10
For the; Domain:
For x = 1, M(0) = 5 + 3(0) = 5
M(10) = 35
Thus;
Domain: 5 ≤ M ≤ 35
The range could be all numbers in the interval from 0 to 10. Thus, it is continuous.
Whereas, the domain doesn't contain all the numbers in the interval from 5 to 35. Thus it is Discrete.

Answer:
1. n=11 2. n=5 3. n=15 4. n=4 5. n=4 6. n=27
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Subtract 2 from 13 to get your answer of 11
2. Divide 15 by 3 to get your answer of 5
3. Multiply both sides by 3 to cancel out the division of 3 and you'll get 30, then divide both sides by 2 to get your answer of 15
4. Add 5 to both sides to cancel out the negative 5 and you'll get 4
5. Subtract 3 from both sides to cancel out the 3 and you'll end up with 2n=8, then you wanna divide both sides by 2 to get your final answer of 4
6. Add 2 to both sides to cancel out the negative 2 and you'll be left with 1/3n=9, next you wanna multiply both sides by 3 to cancel out the 1/3 and you'll get your final answer of 27

A ball is thrown directly upward from a height of 3 ft with an initial velocity of 20 ft/sec. The function s(t)=−16t2+20t+3 gives the height of the ball, in feet, t seconds after it has been thrown. Determine the time at which the ball reaches its maximum height and find the maximum height.
Answer:
[tex]t=\frac{5}{8}s[/tex] and [tex]s(\frac{5}{8})=\frac{37}{4}ft[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
There are different approaches you can take to solve this problem. You can look at it from the geometric approach or the calculus approach. I will us the geometric approach.
When we analyze the given function for the height of the ball:
[tex]s(t)=-16t^2+20t+3[/tex]
we can see that we are dealing with a quadratic function. This means that the graph will be an inverted parabola, just like the one in the attached picture.
so the idea is to find the vertex of the parabola to find the highest the ball gets to be and the time it gets to be at that height.
In order to do so, we can use the vertex formula, which looks like this:
[tex]t=-\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]
this is use when you have a function with the form:
[tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex]
in this case:
a=-16, b=20 and c=3, so the formula then turns to:
[tex]t=-\frac{20}{2(-16)}[/tex]
which yields:
[tex]t=\frac{5}{8} s[/tex]
which is our first answer. So we can then use this to find the maximum height of the ball, just by substituting t into the original function:
[tex]s(\frac{5}{8})=-16(\frac{5}{8})^2+20(\frac{5}{8})+3[/tex]
which yields:
[tex]s(\frac{5}{8})=\frac{37}{4} ft[/tex]
which is our second answer.
A 2-pound bag of sugar contains 227 one-teaspoon servings and costs $2.49. A batch of muffins uses 1 2 cup of sugar. How many whole batches can you make if you use as much of the sugar as possible? What is the cost of sugar for each batch? (1 cup = 48 teaspoons; do not consider leftover sugar in the cost calculation.) You can make a total of batches at $ per batch.
Answer:
a) 9 whole batches can be made
b) The cost of sugar for each batch = $0.26
Step-by-step explanation:
A 2-pound bag of sugar contains 227 one-teaspoon servings and costs $2.49.
This means:
2 pound bag of sugar = 227 teaspoon servings
2 pounds bag of sugar cost $2.49
We are told that:
A batch of muffins uses 1/2 cup of sugar.
a).How many whole batches can you make if you use as much of the sugar as possible?
(1 cup = 48 teaspoons)
Hence, A batch of muffins = 1/2 cups of sugar = 48 teaspoons of sugar ÷ 2
= 24 teaspoons of sugar
Hence:
24 teaspoons of sugar = 1 batch of muffins
227 teaspoons of sugar = x
Cross Multiply
24 × x = 1 × 227
x = 227/24
x = 9.4583333333 batches of muffins
We are asked to name the number of whole batches that can be made.
Therefore, 9 whole batches of muffins can be made
b) What is the cost of sugar for each batch? (do not consider leftover sugar in the cost calculation.) You can make a total of batches at $ per batch.
Since we are not to consider the leftover sugar in the cost calculation,
1 batch = 24 teaspoons of sugar
9 whole batches =
9 × 24 teaspoons = 216 teaspoons of sugar was used
The left over = 227 - 216 = 11 teaspoons of sugar is left
We know that:
227 teaspoons of sugar = $2.49
216 teaspoons of sugar = x
Cross Multiply
= 216 × $2.49/227
= $2.369339207
24 teaspoons of sugar = 1 batch of muffins
Therefore,
216 teaspoons of sugar =
$2.369339207
24 teaspoons of sugar =
24 × $2.369339207/ 216
= $0.2632599119
Approximately = $0.26
Therefore, the cost of sugar for each batch = $0.26
