Answer:
(a) The standard deviation of the amount spent is $3229.18.
(b) The probability that a household spends between $4000 and $6000 is 0.2283.
(c) The range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is $12382.86 or more.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the average annual amount American households spend on daily transportation is $6312 (Money, August 2001). Assume that the amount spent is normally distributed.
(a) It is stated that 5% of American households spend less than $1000 for daily transportation.
Let X = the amount spent on daily transportation
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = average annual amount American households spend on daily transportation = $6,312
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation
Now, 5% of American households spend less than $1000 on daily transportation means that;
P(X < $1,000) = 0.05
P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma}[/tex] ) = 0.05
P(Z < [tex]\frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma}[/tex] ) = 0.05
In the z-table, the critical value of z which represents the area of below 5% is given as -1.645, this means;
[tex]\frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma}=-1.645[/tex]
[tex]\sigma=\frac{-\$5312}{-1.645}[/tex] = 3229.18
So, the standard deviation of the amount spent is $3229.18.
(b) The probability that a household spends between $4000 and $6000 is given by = P($4000 < X < $6000)
P($4000 < X < $6000) = P(X < $6000) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] $4000)
P(X < $6000) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{\$6000-\$6312}{\$3229.18}[/tex] ) = P(Z < -0.09) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.09)
= 1 - 0.5359 = 0.4641
P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] $4000) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{\$4000-\$6312}{\$3229.18}[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] -0.72) = 1 - P(Z < 0.72)
= 1 - 0.7642 = 0.2358
Therefore, P($4000 < X < $6000) = 0.4641 - 0.2358 = 0.2283.
(c) The range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is given by;
P(X > x) = 0.03 {where x is the required range}
P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18}[/tex] ) = 0.03
P(Z > [tex]\frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18}[/tex] ) = 0.03
In the z-table, the critical value of z which represents the area of top 3% is given as 1.88, this means;
[tex]\frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18}=1.88[/tex]
[tex]{x-\$6312}=1.88\times 3229.18[/tex]
x = $6312 + 6070.86 = $12382.86
So, the range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is $12382.86 or more.

Joshua remembered he had a coupon in his pocket that would take and additional 30%off the price of the shirts. Calculate the new total cost of the shirts including a sales tax of 6.5%
Answer:
New cost of the shirt=$39.028416
Step-by-step explanation:
Target is having a Back to School sale where all polo shirts are discounted by 20%. Joshua wants to buy five shirts: two cost $10.98 each, one costs $11.50, and two others cost $15.99 each. Joshua remembered he had a coupon in his pocket that would take an additional 30% of the shirts. Which choice represents the new total cost of the shirts including the sales tax of 6.5%
Solution
Two shirts cost=$10.98 each
One shirt cost=$11.50
Two shirts cost=$15.99 each
Total cost of shirts=(2*$10.98 + $11.50 + 2*$15.99)
=$21.96 + $11.50 + $31.98
=$65.44
All polo shirts are discounted by 20%
It means he would pay 100%-20% of the total cost
100%-20%=80%
Discounted price=$65.44 * 80%
=$65.44 * 0.8
=$52.352
He has a coupon of 30% off the shirt
100% -30%=70%
=$52.352*70%
=$52.352 * 0.7
=$36.6464
Plus Sales tax of 6.5%
6.5% of $36.6464
=0.065* $36.6464
=$2.382016
New cost of the shirt=$36.6464 + $2.382016
=$39.028416

charges $). 15 per cubic meter of water
used now, much will it cost to fill the pool?
Complete question :
A pool holds 1440 cubic feet of water, the city charges $1.75 per cubic meter of water used.
How much will it cost to fill the pool?
Answer:
$71.36
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount charged per cubic meter = $1. 75
Total volume of pool = 1440 ft^3
Using the conversion unit chart :
1 cubic meter = 35.3147 cubic foot
Then we can express the capacity of water held by the pool in cubic metre.
If 1 cubic meter = 35.3147 cubic foot
Then ;
y cubic meter = 1440 cubic foot
y = 1440/35.3147
y = 40.776220 cubic meter
Thus;
Cost of filling the pool will be;
$1.75 × 40.776220
= $71.358386
= $71.36

what is the x intercept for y=(2x(x-3))/(x-1). ?
my answer sheet says it is supposed to be -0.5
Answer:
( 0,0) and (3,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
y=(2x(x-3))/(x-1)
Set y = 0
0 =(2x(x-3))/(x-1)
Multiply each side by x-1, which makes x not equal to 1
0 =(2x(x-3))
Using the zero product property
2x=0 x-3 =0
x=0 x= 3
The x intercepts are x=0 x= 3
( 0,0) and (3,0)
13. If x + y + z-0 then x+y+z'is equal to:
(a) 3xyz
(b) - 3xyz
(c) xy
(d)-2xy
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
(x³ + y³ +z³) - 3xyz = (x + y + z )(x² +y² +z² - xy -yz - zx)
If x +y + z = 0, then
(x³ + y³ +z³) - 3xyz = 0 *(x² +y² +z² - xy -yz - zx)
(x³ + y³ +z³) - 3xyz = 0
(x³ + y³ +z³) = 3xyz
The straight line PQ with a gradient -2 passing through point (-3, 10). Find the y-intercept of the straight line PQ . Please help me and explain it . Thank you so much
Answer:
y- intercept = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope( gradient ) and c the y- intercept )
Here m = - 2 , thus
y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (- 3, 10) into the partial equation
10 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 10 - 6 = 4
Thus y- intercept c = 4

Jeanette purchased a concert ticket on a web site. The original price of the ticket was $75.
She used a coupon code to receive a 20% discount. The website applied a 10% service fee
to the discounted price. Jeannette's ticket was less than the original price by what percent?
Answer:
Jeannette's ticket was less than the original pice by 30%
Step-by-step explanation:
original price = $75
percentage discount = 20% of original price = 20% of $75
discounted price = [tex]\frac{20}{100} \times\ 75\ =\ 15[/tex]
discounted price = $15
website service fee = 10% of original price
website service fee = [tex]\frac{10}{100}\times 75 = \$7.5[/tex]
New discounted price = discount price + website service fee
= 15 + 7.5 = $22.5
Next, let us calculate what percentage of the original price that will give the new discount price.
Let the percentage of the original price = x%
x% of 75 = $22.5
[tex]\frac{x}{100} \times\ 75\ = 22.5\\\\\frac{75x}{100} = 22.5\\\\75x = 2250\\\\x = \frac{2250}{75} \\\\x = 30[/tex]
Therefore, Jeannette's ticket was less than the original pice by 30%

Answer:
Julie buy [tex]5\frac{5}{7}[/tex] pounds of turnips.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Julie bought a bag of parsnips that weighed ([tex]4\frac{2}{7}[/tex]) pounds. She also bought a bag of turnips that weighed ([tex]1\frac{1}{3}[/tex]) times as much as the parsnips.
We have to find how many pounds of turnips did Julie buy.
Firstly, the weight of a bag of parsnips that Julie bought = [tex]4\frac{2}{7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{30}{7}[/tex] pounds
Now, it is stated that she bought a bag of turnips that weighed ([tex]1\frac{1}{3}[/tex]) times as much as the parsnips, that means;
Weight turnips bag = [tex]\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{30}{7}[/tex]

Soda Tak claims that Diet Tak has 40mg of sodium per can. You work for a consumer organization that tests such claims. You take a random sample of 60 cans and find that the mean amount of sodium in the sample is 41.9mg. The population standard deviation in all cans is 5.2mg. You suspect that there is more than 40mg of sodium per can. Find the z-score.
Answer:
Z - score = 2.83
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Number of samples (N) = 60
Sample mean (x) = 41.9mg
Population mean (μ) = 40mg
Population standard deviation (sd) = 5.2
Using the relation :
Z = (x - μ) / (sd / √N)
Z = (41.9 - 40) / (5.2 / √60)
Z = 1.9 / (5.2 / 7.7459666)
Z = 1.9 / 0.6713171
Z = 2.8302570
Therefore, the z-score = 2.83
Isabelle bought some stationery.1/3 of them. Were pencils.5/8 of the remainder were erasers and the rest were rulers.The table shows the cost of each stationery,Pencil:$1.20,Eraser:$1,Ruler:$0.50. She spent a total of $169.50 on all the stationery. a)What fraction of the stationery bought was rulers? b)How much more did she spend one erasers than rulers?
Answer:
1/4 ; $28.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Cost of stationeries:
Pencil:$1.20
Eraser:$1
Ruler:$0.50
Total : $169.50
Let total Stationeries purchased = t
Fraction of pencils = 1/3t
Remainder = t - 1/3 = 2/3t
Fraction of eraser = 5/8 of remainder
Thus ;
Fraction of eraser = 5/8 * (2/3)t= 10/24 = (5/12)t
Rest were ruler ;
(2/3)t - (5/12)t= (8 - 5)/12
= 3 / 12 = 1/4t
Fraction of rulers = 1/4
Amount spent on erasers:
(5/12) of the total cost of stationery
(5/12) * 169.50 = $70.625
B.) How much more did she spend on erasers than rulers
Amount spent on rulers :
(1/4) * $169.50 = $42.375
Take the difference :
$(70.625 - 42.375) = $28.25

Answer:
The equation
[tex]4\,x^2-5=2\,(x+1)^2-7[/tex]
can be solved by first expanding all indicated operations, and later when the constant terms disappear, by factoring out 2x , leaving the equation as a product of two factors equal zero, from which it is easy to extract the roots. See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
When solving for x in the following expression, and using factoring to apply at the end the zero product theorem:
[tex]4\,x^2-5=2\,(x+1)^2-7\\4\,x^2-5=2\,(x^2+2x+1)-7\\4\,x^2-5=2\,x^2+4\,x+2-7\\4\,x^2-5=2\.x^2+4\,x-5\\4\,x^2=2\,x^2+4\,x\\4\,x^2-2\,x^2-4\,x=0\\2\,x^2-4\,x=0\\2\,x\,(x-2)=0[/tex]
We observe that for the last product, to get a zero, x has to be zero (making the first factor zero), or x has to be "2" making the binomial factor zero.

This is because they are relative references and they behave on a relative position.
This implies that, when the formula is in cell C5, the formula considers cells A2 and C2 when executing the formula;
However, C6 will consider cells A3 and C3, respectively.
Find the missing probability. P(A)=15,P(A∪B)=1225,P(A∩B)=7100 ,P(B)=?
Answer:
p(B) = 8310Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the addition rule of probability of two events to solve the question. According to the rule given two events A and B;
p(A∪B) = p(A)+p(B) - p(A∩B) where;
A∪B is the union of the two sets A and B
A∩B is the intersection between two sets A and B
Given parameters
P(A)=15
P(A∪B)=1225
P(A∩B)=7100
Required
Probability of event B i.e P(B)
Using the expression above to calculate p(B), we will have;
p(A∪B) = p(A)+p(B) - p(A∩B)
1225 = 15+p(B)-7100
p(B) = 1225-15+7100
p(B) = 8310
Hence the missing probability p(B) is 8310.
