During the last year the value of your house decreased by 30%. If the value of your house is $235,000 today, what was the value of your house last year? Round your answer to the nearest cent, if necessary .
Answer:
The value of the house last year was of $335,714.29.
Step-by-step explanation:
Last year:
Last year the value of the house was x.
During the last year the value of your house decreased by 30%.
100 - 30 = 70%, and thus, the current value of the house is 70% of last year, that is, 0.7x.
$235,000 today, what was the value of your house last year?
Thus:
[tex]0.7x = 235000[/tex]
We solve for x, so:
[tex]x = \frac{235000}{0.7} = 335714.29[/tex]
The value of the house last year was of $335,714.29.

A paint manufacturer knows that ultraviolet light can degrade many types of paint. It wants to know which paint composition has the least amount of degradation under ultraviolet light. Three different paint compositions were tested. A wall in a windowed hallway of a paint manufacturing plant was divided into 18 sections, and each of the sections was randomly assigned to one of the three paint compositions. The wall sections were painted and then left to be exposed to sunlight. After 18 months of sunlight exposure, the walls were analyzed to determine the degree of change in pigment of the paint, and the results were compared between paint compositions. What are the individuals in this experiment?
This question uses the experimental study concept.
Doing this, we have that the walls analyzed are the individuals.
First, the concept of experimental study is presented:
Experimental study: In an experimental study, there is an intervention in the individuals, and it's effect is studied.In this question:
There is an intervention in the walls, they are painted, using three different paint compositions, and then they are exposed to sunlight, and after that the walls were analyzed, to study the degree of change in pigment of the paint, being compared between different paint compositions.
Thus, since the intervention was in the walls, they are the individuals in this experiment.

One of the problems encountered by corporations in America is finding an adequate number of employees who want to move into management. Recent surveys of workers in America taken by the Department of Labor in Washington D. C. revealed that only 20% of employees would like to move into management and be the boss. Suppose that a random sample of 75 U.S. workers was taken and each person was asked whether or not they would like to move into management. Find the probability that at least 18 of the 75 sampled employees would like to move into management.
Answer:
0.2358 = 23.58% probability that at least 18 of the 75 sampled employees would like to move into management.
Step-by-step explanation:
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.
Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]
Normal probability distribution
Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].
20% of employees would like to move into management and be the boss.
This means that [tex]p = 0.2[/tex]
Sample of 75:
This means that [tex]n = 75[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 75(0.2) = 15[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{75*0.2*0.8} = 3.4641[/tex]
Find the probability that at least 18 of the 75 sampled employees would like to move into management.
Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \geq 18 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 17.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of X = 17.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{17.5 - 15}{3.4641}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.72[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.72[/tex] has a p-value of 0.7642.
1 - 0.7642 = 0.2358
0.2358 = 23.58% probability that at least 18 of the 75 sampled employees would like to move into management.

One year the ACT had a mean score of 21.2 and a standard deviation of 5.1. That same year, the SAT had a mean score of 1498 and a standard deviation of 347. Suppose that a scholarship committee is considering two students, one who scored 26 on the ACT and another who scored 1,800 on the SAT. Both are pretty good scores, but which one is better? Find the z-score for the ACT
Answer:
ACT Score performed better.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
ACT :
Mean score, μ = 21.2
Standard deviation, σ = 5.1
Score, x = 26
SAT :
Mean score, μ = 1498
Standard deviation, σ = 347
Score, x = 1800
To know which score is better, we obtain the standardized, Z score of the two examination :
Zscore = (x - μ) / σ
ACT Zscore :
(26 - 21.2) / 5.1
Zscore = 4.8 / 5.1 = 0.941
ACT Zscore = 0.941
SAT Zscore :
(1800 - 1498) / 347
Zscore = 302 / 347 = 0.870
SAT Zscore = 0.870
The student with the higher Zscore performed better :
ACT Zscore > SAT Zscore
The time for a visitor to read health instructions on a Web site is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 10 minutes and a standard deviation of 2 minutes. Suppose 64 visitors independently view the site. Determine the following: a. The expected value and the variance of the mean time of the visitors. b. The probability that the mean time of the visitors is within 15 seconds of 10 minutes c. The value exceeded by the mean time of the visitors with probability 0.01.
Answer:
a) The mean is 10 and the variance is 0.0625.
b) 0.6826 = 68.26% probability that the mean time of the visitors is within 15 seconds of 10 minutes.
c) 10.58 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
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.
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.
Normally distributed with a mean of 10 minutes and a standard deviation of 2 minutes.
This means that [tex]\mu = 10, \sigma = 2[/tex]
Suppose 64 visitors independently view the site.
This means that [tex]n = 64, = \frac{2}{\sqrt{64}} = 0.25[/tex]
a. The expected value and the variance of the mean time of the visitors.
Using the Central Limit Theorem, mean of 10 and variance of (0.25)^2 = 0.0625.
b. The probability that the mean time of the visitors is within 15 seconds of 10 minutes.
15 seconds = 15/60 = 0.25 minutes, so between 9.75 and 10.25 seconds, which is the p-value of Z when X = 10.25 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 9.75.
X = 10.25
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{10.25 - 10}{0.25}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8413.
X = 9.75
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{9.75 - 10}{0.25}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1587.
0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6826.
0.6826 = 68.26% probability that the mean time of the visitors is within 15 seconds of 10 minutes.
c. The value exceeded by the mean time of the visitors with probability 0.01.
The 100 - 1 = 99th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.99, so X when Z = 2.327.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]2.327 = \frac{X - 10}{0.25}[/tex]
[tex]X - 10 = 2.327*0.25[/tex]
[tex]X = 10.58[/tex]
So 10.58 minutes.

Find f(0) and then find the equation of the given linear function.
x 1 2 3 4
f(x) 6 10 14 18
f(0) =
f(x) =
Answer:
f(0) = 2
f(x) = 4x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You can see that the consecutive x-values are producing y-values that increase by 4 each time. Since the change in y is the same every time, we know this is a linear graph because in a continuous linear graph the slope does not change.
We can use the equation for a line: y = mx + b,
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
The slope [m] is calculated by [change in y]/[change in x]. The y-values are increasing by 4 each time x increases by 1. m = 4/1 = 4.
Once we have found the slope, we can find the value for f(0). The line graph has a positive slope, so to find the value at x=0, we would subtract 4, moving backwards along the line.
6-4 = 2
The y-intercept on a line is the y-value for which x = 0. In this case we have already solved for the y-intercept, f(0) = 2.
Now plug the values into the formula.
y = mx + b
The value of f(0) is 2.
The equation of this linear function is y = 4x + 2
What is a function?A function is defined as a relation between a set of inputs having one output each.
The inputs are called domain of the function.
The outputs are called the range of the function.
We have,
x = 1, 2, 3, 4
f(x) = 6, 10, 14, 18
The f(x) values are the values we get when we substitute x values.
There is a difference of 4 in the f(x) values.
10 - 6 = 4
14 - 10 = 4
18 - 14 = 4
Since the difference between the values of f(x) is same, the given function is a linear function.
The equation of this linear function will be in the form of:
y = mx + c
m = slope
c = y-intercept
Find m.
Choose any two points as: (1, 6) and (2, 10)
m = 10-6 / 2-1 = 4/1= 4
Find c.
x = 0 in y-intercept and choosing any point = (1, 6)
So,
6 = 4 + c
c = 6 - 4 = 2
Now,
The equation of this linear function:
y = 4x + 2
f(0) = 4 x 0 + 2 = 0 + 2 = 2
Thus,
The value of f(0) is 2.
The equation of this linear function is y = 4x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
Point-slope form: [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex] where [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] is a point and [tex]m[/tex] is the slope
1) Determine the slope
[tex]m=\frac{\displaystyle y_2-y_1}{\displaystyle x_2-x_2}[/tex] where two given points are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]
Plug in the given points (-2, 6) and (3,-2):
[tex]m=\frac{\displaystyle -2-6}{\displaystyle 3-(-2)}\\\\m=\frac{\displaystyle -8}{\displaystyle 3+2}\\\\m=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}[/tex]
Therefore, the slope of the line is [tex]-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}[/tex]. Plug this into [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]:
[tex]y-y_1=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-x_1)[/tex]
2) Plug in a point [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex]
[tex]y-y_1=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-x_1)[/tex]
We're given two points, (-2, 6) and (3,-2), so there are two ways we can write this equation:
[tex]y-6=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-(-2))\\\\y-6=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x+2)[/tex]
OR
[tex]y-(-2)=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-3)\\y+2=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-3)[/tex]

Hari earns Rs 4300 per month. He spends 80% from his income. How much amount does he save in a year?
Answer:
Hari saves $ 10,320 in a year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Hari earns $ 4300 per month, and he spends 80% from his income, to determine how much amount does he save in a year, the following calculation must be performed:
100 - 80 = 20
4300 x 0.20 x 12 = X
860 x 12 = X
10320 = X
Therefore, Hari saves $ 10,320 in a year.
