Answer:
560
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the original price
27% off
original price minus discount = new price
x - .27x = new price
.73x = new price
.73x = 409
Divide each side by .73
.73x/.73 = 409/.73
x=560.2739726
To the nearest dollar
x = 560
Scores on the SAT are approximately normally distributed. One year, the average score on the Math SAT was 500 and the standard deviation was 120. What was the score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers
Answer:
The score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers was of 624.44.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
One year, the average score on the Math SAT was 500 and the standard deviation was 120.
This means that [tex]\mu = 500, \sigma = 120[/tex]
What was the score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers?
The 85th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.85, so X when Z = 1.037.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]1.037 = \frac{X - 500}{120}[/tex]
[tex]X - 500 = 1.037*120[/tex]
[tex]X = 624.44[/tex]
The score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers was of 624.44.

Tony invested $9538 in an account at 8% compounded daily. Identify the compound
interest C after 1 years.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
$794.30
Step-by-step explanation:
The account balance for principal P invested at rate r compounded daily for t years is ...
A = P(1 +r/365)^(365t)
We have P=$9538, r=0.08, t=1, and we want the value of P-A, the interest earned.
P-A = P(1 +0.08/365)^365 -1) = $9538(1.08327757 -1) ≈ $794.30
The interest earned in one year is $794.30.
Find the volume of the solid whose base is the region in the first quadrant bounded by y=x^4, y=1 and the y-axis and whose cross-sections perpendicular to the x axis are semicircles.
The base of the solid - call it B - is the set of points
B = {(x, y) : 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 and x ⁴ ≤ y ≤ 1}
Recall the area of a circle with radius r is πr ²; in terms of the diameter d = 2r, the area is π (d/2)² = π/4 d ². Then the area of a semicircle with the same diamater is half of this, π/8 d ².
Cross sections of the solid in question are semicircles arranged perpendicular to the x-axis, which means the diameters of each cross section corresponds to the vertical distance between y = x ⁴ and y = 1 for any given values of x between 0 and 1. So d = 1 - x ⁴, which makes the area of each cross section come out to π/8 (1 - x ⁴)².
Split up the solid into very thin cross sections with "base" area π/8 (1 - x ⁴)² and thickness ∆x. Take the sum of these half-cylinders' volumes, then let ∆x converge to 0. In short, we get the total volume by integrating,
[tex]\displaystyle \int_0^1\frac\pi8(1-x^4)^2\,\mathrm dx = \frac\pi8\int_0^1(1-2x^4+x^8)\,\mathrm dx = \boxed{\frac{4\pi}{45}}[/tex]

The cost of an apple has decreased from $0.50 to $0.40. Work out the decrease cost of an apple as a percentage.
Answer:
Decreased by 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
0.5 x ? = 0.4
? = 0.4/0.5
? = 0.8
1 - 0.8 = 0.2
0.2 = 20%
To check, 20% of 0.5 is 0.1. 0.5 - 0.1 is 0.4. So the answer is correct.

9514 1404 393
Answer:
3 gallons 15%2 gallons 10%Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the quantity of 15% alcohol required. Then (5-x) is the amount of 10% alcohol needed. The amount of alcohol in the mix is ...
0.15x +0.10(5-x) = 0.13(5)
0.05x +0.5 = 0.65 . . . . . . . simplify
0.05x = 0.15 . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.5
x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.05
3 gallons of 15% alcohol and 2 gallons of 10% alcohol should be mixed.
a test has 20 multiple-choice questions with 5 choices each, followed by 35 true/false questions. if a student guesses on each question, how many ways can he answer the questions on the test
Answer
There are 170 ways the student can answer the test.
Explanation
If there are 20 multiple-choice questions with 5 choices each, the student has 100 choices. The first question has 5 choices to pick from. The second has 5 as well. So does the third. Hopefully now you realize that you have to multiply the number of choices by the number of questions.
The same thing goes with the true/false questions. There are 2 choices for each true/false question, and there are 35 of those. 35×2 is 70. There are 70 ways to answer on the true/false questions.
Now combine the number of choices on the first part and the second part; 100+70 is 170.
A student researcher compares the heights of American students and non-American students from the student body of a certain college in order to estimate the difference in their mean heights. A random sample of 12 American students had a mean height of 68.4 inches with a standard deviation of 1.64 inches. A random sample of 17 non-American students had a mean height of 64.9 inches with a standard deviation of 1.75 inches. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the mean height of the American students and the mean height of the non-American students. Assume that the population variances are equal and that the two populations are normally distributed. Find the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval.
Answer:
The point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 3.5.
The 95% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the mean height of the American students and the mean height of the non-American students, in inches, is (2.25, 4.75).
Step-by-step explanation:
Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
American students:
Sample of 12, mean height of 68.4 inches with a standard deviation of 1.64 inches. This means that:
[tex]\mu_A = 68.4[/tex]
[tex]s_A = \frac{1.64}{\sqrt{12}} = 0.4743[/tex]
Non-American students:
Sample of 17, mean height of 64.9 inches with a standard deviation of 1.75 inches. This means that:
[tex]\mu_N = 64.9[/tex]
[tex]s_N = \frac{1.75}{\sqrt{17}} = 0.4244[/tex]
Distribution of the difference:
[tex]\mu = \mu_A - \mu_N = 68.4 - 64.9 = 3.5[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_A^2+s_N^2} = \sqrt{0.4743^2 + 0.4244^2} = 0.6365[/tex]
The point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 3.5.
Confidence interval:
[tex]\mu \pm zs[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].
The lower bound of the interval is:
[tex]\mu - zs = 3.5 - 1.96*0.6365 = 2.25[/tex]
The upper bound of the interval is:
[tex]\mu + zs = 3.5 + 1.96*0.6365 = 4.75[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the mean height of the American students and the mean height of the non-American students, in inches, is (2.25, 4.75).

The ages of a group of 142 randomly selected adult females have a standard deviation of 18.1 years. Assume that the ages of female statistics students have less variation than ages of females in the general population, so let σ=18.1 years for the sample size calculation. How many female statistics student ages must be obtained in order to estimate the mean age of all female statistics students? Assume that we want 99% confidence that the sample mean is within one-half year of the population mean. Does it seem reasonable to assume that the ages of female statistics students have less variation than ages of females in the general population? The required sample size is
Answer:
Start with the formula for Z:
Z = (x-µ)/(σ/√n)
We want the sample mean to be within one-half year of the population mean, so we set x-µ=0.5. We are looking for a 99% confidence interval, so we set Z=2.7578. We are told to use σ=18.1. Plugging those values into the formula, we get:
2.5758 = 0.5(18.1/√n)
We can rearrange to solve for n:
((2.5758-18.1)/0.5)2 = n
Plugging that into our calculator, we get n = 964.003. Since we can't have a fraction of a person in our sample, it would be safest to round up to n=965. (But since .003 is so small, I'd also accept 964 as an answer.)Step-by-step explanation:
The required sample size for the given population distribution is; n = 8696 female ages
We are given;
Standard deviation; σ = 18.1
Confidence level; CL = 99%
Now, formula to find the margin of error is;
E = z(σ/√n)
Where;
E is margin of error
z is critical value at confidence level
σ is standard deviation
n is required sample size
Now we are told that the sample mean is within one-half year of the population mean.
Thus;
E = 0.5
z value at 99% Confidence level is;
z = 2.576
Thus, Making n the subject of the formula is;
n = (zσ/E)²
n = (2.576 × 18.1/0.5)²
n = 8695.78
Approximating to a whole number gives;
n = 8696 female ages

Based on a poll, among adults who regret getting tattoos, 24% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos. Assume that six adults who regret getting tattoos are randomly selected, and find the indicated probability.
a. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
Answer:
a) 0.1927 = 19.27% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
b) 0.3651 = 36.51% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c) 0.5578 = 55.78% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they say they were too young to get tattoos, or they do not say this. The probability of a person saying this is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
24% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos.
This means that [tex]p = 0.24[/tex]
Six adults
This means that [tex]n = 6[/tex]
a. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
This is P(X = 0). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.24)^{0}.(0.76)^{6} = 0.1927[/tex]
0.1927 = 19.27% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
This is P(X = 1). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{6,1}.(0.24)^{1}.(0.76)^{5} = 0.3651[/tex]
0.3651 = 36.51% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
This is:
[tex]p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1927 + 0.3651 = 0.5578[/tex]
0.5578 = 55.78% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

a) A box contains 6 red balls, 4 white balls, and 10 black balls. Two balls are drawn at random from the box (with replacement of the first before the second is drawn). What is the probability of getting a red ball on the first draw and a white ball on the second
Answer:
Red ball=3/10
White ball=1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Red balls=6. And all the balls are equal to 20. So probability of red ball=6/20=3/10.
White balls=4. So probability of white ball=4/20=1/5.
NB: Since the first ball was replaced, there's no need to deduct a ball from the original 20 balls.

Answer:
(i) k = 1
(ii) 4/7
(iii) arctan(4/7) ≈ 29.7°
Step-by-step explanation:
(i) A graph of the given points is helpful. It shows us the slope of AB is ...
mAB = rise/run = 2/1 = 2
so the slope of BC must be the opposite reciprocal, -1/2.
Point C is 6-2 = 4 units to the right of point B, so will be (-1/2)(4) = -2 units from point B in the vertical direction. That is, ...
k = 3 -2
k = 1
__
(ii) The gradient of AC is found from the slope formula:
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (1 -(-3))/(6 -(-1))
mAC = 4/7

(iii) The angle that line AC makes with the +x axis is the arctangent of the slope:
arctan(4/7) ≈ 29.7° . . . angle between AC and +x axis
