Answer 1

Answer:

The answer closest to 36.10425. So 36.10 or 36.1

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 44.85 ( 1 - 0.195) = 36.10425

If this helps, it would be nice if 5 stars are given, and a brainliest :)

Answer 2

The amount of the bill before adding the amount of tip is evaluated being of $37.53 approx.

How to find the percentage from the total value?

Suppose the value of which a thing is expressed in percentage is "a'

Suppose the percent that considered thing is of "a" is b%

Then since percent shows per 100 (since cent means 100), thus we will first divide the whole part in 100 parts and then we multiply it with b so that we collect b items per 100 items(that is exactly what b per cent means).

Thus, that thing in number is

[tex]\dfrac{a}{100} \times b[/tex]

For this case, we can assume the amount of bill without tip being A.

Then, as given, Payton gave 19.5% tip (tip is given assumingly on A), then:

Total price of the bill = Bill amount before tip + Tip

44.85 = A + (19.5 % of A)

(we don't write symbols like of currency generally in equations, and understand it from context(which is dollars here))

44.85 = A + (19.5 % of A)

or

[tex]44.85 = A + \dfrac{A}{100} \times 19.5\\\\\text{Multiplying 100 on both the sides}\\\\4485 = 100A + 19.5A\\4485 = 119.5A\\\\\text{Dividing both the sides by 119.5}\\\\\dfrac{4485}{119.5} = A\\\\37.53 \approx A\\\\A \approx 37.53 \: \rm \text{(in dollars)}[/tex]

Thus, the amount of the bill before adding the amount of tip is evaluated being of $37.53 approx.

The midpoint of has coordinates of (4, -9). The endpoint A has coordinates (-3, -5). What are the coordinates of B?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (11, -13)

Step-by-step explanation:

If midpoint M is halfway between A and B:

  M = (A +B)/2

Then B is ...

  B = 2M -A

  B = 2(4, -9) -(-3, -5) = (8+3, -18+5)

  B = (11, -13)

Answer:

Use the midpoint formula:

[tex]midpoint=(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})[/tex]

Endpoint A = (x₁, y₁) = (-3, -5)Endpoint B = (x₂, y₂)Midpoint = (4, -9)

Substitute in the values:

[tex](4, -9)=(\frac{-3+x_{2}}{2} +\frac{-5+y_{2}}{2} )[/tex]

[tex]4=\frac{-3+x_{2}}{2} \\4(2)=-3+x_{2}\\8+3=x_{2}\\x_{2}=11[/tex]      [tex]-9=\frac{-5+y_{2}}{2} \\(-9)(2)=-5+y_{2}\\-18+5=y_{2}\\y_{2}=-13[/tex]

A shop sells a particular of video recorder. Assuming that the weekly demand for the video recorder is a Poisson variable with the mean 3, find the probability that the shop sells. . (a) At least 3 in a week. (b) At most 7 in a week. (c) More than 20 in a month (4 weeks).

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.5768 = 57.68% probability that the shop sells at least 3 in a week.

b) 0.988 = 98.8% probability that the shop sells at most 7 in a week.

c) 0.0104 = 1.04% probability that the shop sells more than 20 in a month.

Step-by-step explanation:

For questions a and b, the Poisson distribution is used, while for question c, the normal approximation is used.

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of successes

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

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.

The Poisson distribution can be approximated to the normal with [tex]\mu = \lambda, \sigma = \sqrt{\lambda}[/tex], if [tex]\lambda>10[/tex].

Poisson variable with the mean 3

This means that [tex]\lambda= 3[/tex].

(a) At least 3 in a week.

This is [tex]P(X \geq 3)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0498[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.1494[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2240[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0498 + 0.1494 + 0.2240 = 0.4232[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 1 - 0.4232 = 0.5768[/tex]

0.5768 = 57.68% probability that the shop sells at least 3 in a week.

(b) At most 7 in a week.

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0498[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.1494[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2240[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.2240[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.1680[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{5}}{(5)!} = 0.1008[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{6}}{(6)!} = 0.0504[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{7}}{(7)!} = 0.0216[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \leq 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) = 0.0498 + 0.1494 + 0.2240 + 0.2240 + 0.1680 + 0.1008 + 0.0504 + 0.0216 = 0.988[/tex]

0.988 = 98.8% probability that the shop sells at most 7 in a week.

(c) More than 20 in a month (4 weeks).

4 weeks, so:

[tex]\mu = \lambda = 4(3) = 12[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\lambda} = \sqrt{12}[/tex]

The probability, using continuity correction, is P(X > 20 + 0.5) = P(X > 20.5), which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 20.5.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{20 - 12}{\sqrt{12}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.31[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.31[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9896.

1 - 0.9896 = 0.0104

0.0104 = 1.04% probability that the shop sells more than 20 in a month.

The probability of the selling the video recorders for considered cases are:

P(At least 3 in a week) = 0.5768 approximately.P(At most 7 in a week) = 0.9881 approximately.P( more than 20 in a month) = 0.0839 approximately.

What are some of the properties of Poisson distribution?

Let X ~ Pois(λ)

Then we have:

E(X) = λ = Var(X)

Since standard deviation is square root (positive) of variance,

Thus,

Standard deviation of X = [tex]\sqrt{\lambda}[/tex]

Its probability function is given by

f(k; λ) = Pr(X = k) = [tex]\dfrac{\lambda^{k}e^{-\lambda}}{k!}[/tex]

For this case, let we have:

X = the number of weekly demand of video recorder for the considered shop.

Then, by the given data, we have:

X ~ Pois(λ=3)


Evaluating each event's probability:

Case 1: At least 3 in a week.

[tex]P(X > 3) = 1- P(X \leq 2) = \sum_{i=0}^{2}P(X=i) = \sum_{i=0}^{2} \dfrac{3^ie^{-3}}{i!}\\\\P(X > 3) = 1 - e^{-3} \times \left( 1 + 3 + 9/2\right) \approx 1 - 0.4232 = 0.5768[/tex]

Case 2: At most 7 in a week.

[tex]P(X \leq 7) = \sum_{i=0}^{7}P(X=i) = \sum_{i=0}^{7} \dfrac{3^ie^{-3}}{i!}\\\\P(X \leq 7) = e^{-3} \times \left( 1 + 3 + 9/2 + 27/6 + 81/24 + 243/120 + 729/720 + 2187/5040\right)\\\\P(X \leq 7) \approx 0.9881[/tex]

Case 3: More than 20 in a month(4 weeks)

That means more than 5 in a week on average.

[tex]P(X > 5) = 1- P(X \leq 5) =\sum_{i=0}^{5}P(X=i) = \sum_{i=0}^{5} \dfrac{3^ie^{-3}}{i!}\\\\P(X > 5) = 1- e^{-3}( 1 + 3 + 9/2 + 27/6 + 81/24 + 243/120)\\\\P(X > 5) \approx 1 - 0.9161 \\ P(X > 5) \approx 0.0839[/tex]


Thus, the probability of the selling the video recorders for considered cases are:

P(At least 3 in a week) = 0.5768 approximately.P(At most 7 in a week) = 0.9881 approximately.P( more than 20 in a month) = 0.0839 approximately.

Damaged items are marked down 25% to 40%. A newspaper coupon holder; to an additional 10% markdown of the new price due to the damage. What is the lowest price of a damaged item that was originally marked GHC100?
A GHC 35.60

C. GHC 18.00
D. GHC 40.80
E GHC 23.40​

Answers

Markdown is the difference (at sale) between the price an item is placed at for retail sale, and the actual price the item is sold

The correct option is; B. GHC 50.00

The reason for choosing option B is as follows;

The known parameters

The percentage by which damaged items are marked down = 25% to 40%

The percentage markdown offered by the newspaper coupon = 10%

The original marked price of the item = GHC 100

Strategy:

Apply the damaged items and coupon markdown percentages to the original marked price of GHC100 sum the results to find the total markdown

Solution:

Markdown due to damage:

Given that the item is damaged, to have the lowest price, we apply the largest markdown of 40%;

40% is removed from the price to which the item marked down due to damage, as follows;

The markdown due to damage = 40/100 × GHC 100 = GHC 40

Markdown due to Coupon Holder:

The markdown the coupon holder is to get = 10% off the retail price

Given that the damage is not mentioned in the newspaper, we have;

∴ The markdown the coupon holder is to get = 10/100 × GHC 100 = GHC 10

Total markdown:

The total markdown is therefore equal to GHC 40 + GHC 10 = GHC 50

The Lowest Price of A Damaged Items marked GHC100:

The lowest price of the item = Original price - Maximum markdown

The lowest price of the item = GHC 100 - GHC 50 = GHC 50

NEED HALP!!! Find the ordered pair $(s,t)$ that satisfies the system

Answers

Answer:

(-8/7 ; 5/7)

Step-by-step explanation:

5t + 1/2s = 3 - - - (1)

3t - 6s = 9 - - - - - (2)

Multiply (1) by 12 and (2) by 1

Add the result to eliminate s

60t + 6s = 36

3t - 6s = 9

____________

63t = 45

t = 45 / 63

t = 5/7

Put t = 5/7 in either (1) or (2) to obtain the value of s

3(5/7) - 6s = 9

15/7 - 6s = 9

-6s = 9 - 15/7

-6s = (63 - 15)/7

-6s = 48/7

s = 48/7 * - 1/6

s = - 8/7

A chocolate chip cookie manufacturing company recorded the number of chocolate chips in a sample of 60 cookies. The mean is 22.36 and the standard deviation is2.97 . Construct a ​80% confidence interval estimate of the standard deviation of the numbers of chocolate chips in all such cookies.

Answers

Answer:

2.665 < σ < 3.379

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

s = 2.97

Sample size, n = 60

α = 80%

χ² Critical value (two - tailed), df = (60-1) = 59

χ² = 45.577 ; χ² = 73.279

The 80% confidence interval for the standard deviation :

s * √(n - 1) / χ² critical

2.97 * √(60 - 1) / 73.279 < σ < 2.97 * √(60 - 1) / 45.577

2.665 < σ < 3.379
