The Daily News reported that 54% of people surveyed said that they would vote for Larry Salva for mayor. Based on the survey results, if 23,500 people vote in the election, how many people are expected to vote for Mr. Salva?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12,690 people are expected to vote for Mr Salva

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the number of people that is expected to vote for a particular candidate in an election given that 54% of people surveyed had said they would vote for the candidate.

Now to calculate the number of people expected to vote for Mr Salva, what we need to do is to find the number out of 23,000 that actually represents a percentage of 54%

To do this, we find 54% of 23,500

mathematically, we have;

54/100 * 23,500

= 12,690

Answer:

a) One student from the class is chosen at random. What is the probability that the student has a sister?

S/£

b)One of the students who has a brother is chosen at random. What is the probability that this student has a sister?​

BS/£²

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, we are given the following values:

£ represents 29 students in class = Total number of students in the class.

B represents students who have a brother

S represents students who have a sister

The formula for probability = Number of events ÷ Number of possible outcomes.

a) One student from the class is chosen at random. What is the probability that the student has a sister?

Number of events = Number of students that have a sister = S

Number of possible outcomes = £ represents 29 students in class

The probability that the student has a sister = S/£

b)One of the students who has a brother is chosen at random. What is the probability that this student has a sister?​

This is calculated as

The Probability of Students that have a brother and a sister = Probability of students that have a brother × Probability of student that have a sister.

Number of students that have a brother = B

Number of students that have a sister = S

The Probability of Students that have a brother and a sister = B/£ × S/£

= BS/£²

every natural number is a whole number why?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

0 is whole number and 1 is natural number they both end in infinity. So there is only 0 in whole number but not in natural number.thats why every natural number is whole number

Natural numbers are the counting

numbers and they are always positive.

The set of natural numbers begin at 1 and go on indefinitely.

The natural numbers look like {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...}.

When we include 0 in the set of natural numbers, the new set,

{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ...} is called the set of whole numbers.

Notice that all natural numbers are

included within the set of whole numbers.

We can represent the relationship between these

two sets of numbers using a diagram.

The bigger circle below represents the set of whole numbers

and all natural numbers will appear within the set of whole numbers.

In summary, natural numbers are the same as whole numbers except for the fact that whole numbers include 0.

The volume of an oblique pyramid with a square base is V units3 and the height is h units.

(3V – h) units2
(V – 3h) units2
StartFraction V Over 3 h EndFraction units2

Answers

Answer:

StartFraction 3 V Over h EndFraction units2

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of an oblique square pyramid V = 1/3 * b * H where;

b is the base area of the pyramid

H is the height of the pyramid

To determine the expression that represents area of the base of the pyramid, we will make the variable 'b' the subject of the formula from

V = 1/3 bH

[tex]V=\frac{bH}{3}[/tex]

Cross multiplying we have;

[tex]3V = bH\\[/tex]

Dividing both sides by H we have;

[tex]\frac{3V}{H} = \frac{bH}{H} \\b = \frac{3V}{H}units^{2}[/tex]

This gives the correct expression for the base area of the pyramid

4/7 of the students in a classroom are boys. If there are twelve girls in the class, how many total students are there?

Answers

Answer:

28 students total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use a ratio:

boys : girls

 4     :   3

 16    :   12

To find the total, we need to add 16 and 12 which equals 28

Answer:

28 students

Step-by-step explanation:

If 4/7 of the students are boys,

then 1- 4/7 = girls

7/7 -4/7 = 3/7

total students *3/7 = girls

total students * 3/7 = 12

Multiply each side by 7/3

total students * 3/7 *7/3 = 12*7/3

The sale price of ground beef at a local grocery store is $1.49 for the first pound and $1.09 for each additional pound. Which function rule shows how the cost of ground beef, y depends on the number of pounds, x?

Answers

Answer:

y=1.09x+0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that the price of beef stays the same for every pound of beef (the first pound is also $1.09)

Then, the equation would be, it y was the cost, and x was pounds:

y=1.09x

But, the price of beef is not the same for the first pound.

The first pound costs an extra 1.49-1.09=0.4 dollars a pound, so we will add that to the equation.

Angela works 18 hours a week for 12 weeks in the summer at the local swimming pool as a life guard. she earns $13 per hour. her employer takes 15 percent out of her check for federal income tax withholding and 6.2 percent for social security and 1.45 percent for medicare. she will receive 12 paychecks, one for each week she works. calculate angela’s weekly gross pay: calculate the amount taken out of angela’s check for federal income tax withholding: calculate the amount taken out of angela’s check for social security taxes: calculate the amount taken out of angela’s check for medicare taxes: calculate angela’s net paycheck using the calculations above: calculate angela’s total gross pay for all 12 weeks: calculate angela’s total net pay for all 12 weeks:

Answers

Answer:

Gross pay per week = $234

Federal income tax = $421.2

Social security = $174.96

Medicare =$40.71

net pay per week = $181

Total gross pay = $2,808

Total net pay = $2172

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to calculate Angela gross income per week:

18 hours per week x $13 per hour = $234 per week (gross)

234 x 12 =2,808

Amount taken ; multiply weekly gross pay by each percentage discount in decimal form (divided by 100)

Federal income tax = 234 x (15/100) = $35.1  (in 12 weeks = 35.1 x 12 = $421.2)

Social security = 234 x (6.2/100)= $14.508 (in 12 weeks = 14.5 x 12 = $174.96)

Medicare = 234 x (1.45/100)=$3.393  (in 12 weeks = 3.39x 12 = $40.71)

Total amount taken (per week)= 35.1+14.508+3.393=$53.001

Net pay per week = 234-53 = $181

For the total gross pay we have to multiply the weekly gross pay by the number of weeks (12)

Total gross pay = 234 x 12 =$2,808

Total net pay = 181 x 12 = 181 per week x 12 = $2172

Circumference = 2 x 3.14 x radius = 27 (in)

=> radius = 27/(2 x 3.14) = 4.3 (in)

=> Area = 3.14 x radius^2 = 3.14 x 4.3^2 = 58.1 (in2)

Answer:

58 inches^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a circle is [tex]\pi *radius^{2}[/tex]

To work out the area of this circle you would first need to divide the circumference of 27 by pi, this gives you 8.594. This is because the formula for the circumference is: [tex]\pi *diameter\\[/tex] and so by dividing the circumference by pi we are isolating the value of the diameter.

Then now that we have worked out the diameter we can now begin to work out the area, however in order to work out the area we must work out the radius. You can do this by dividing the diameter by 2, which gives you 4.297.

Then to work out the area you would multiply pi by the radius of 4.297 squared, this gives you 58.01 [tex]inches^{2}[/tex].

The next step is to round it to the nearest whole number, this gives you 58.

1) Divide 27 by pi.

[tex]27/\pi =8.594[/tex]

2) Divide 8.594 by 2.

[tex]8.594/2=4.297[/tex]

3) Multiply pi by 4.297 squared.

[tex]\pi *4.297^{2} =58.01[/tex]

4) Round to the nearest whole number.

135 apples are to be packed into boxes.each box can take only 12 apples.find the number of boxes that will be fully packed and the number of boxes that will remain.

Answers

Answer:

11 boxes will be fully packed and .25 will be remaining

Our total amount of apples is 135 apples, and the amount that each box can hold is 12.

So, that means we can make an equation for this.

The equation would be 135 = 12x.

Then, to find x we can divide both sides by 12.

135/12 = 11.25

Next, we take 11 and multiply it by 12 to see how many apples it is.

11 x 12 = 132

So, 135-132 equals 3.

3 is 1/4 of 12.

That means 11 boxes will be fully packed and 1/4 of a box will be filled.

Stir-fry is tony's favorite food to cook, but it always makes a lot of smoke! Tony needs to know the volume of his kitchen so he can buy a fan that is the right size. Tony's kitchen has a floor area of 85 square feet. The height of the ceiling is 8 feet. What is the volume of tony's kitchen?

Answers

Answer:

Volume = 680 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Floor Area = 85 ft²

Height = 8 ft

Required

Volume of the Kitchen

To solve this, it'll be assumed that Tony's kitchen has a regular shape.

Having said that, the volume of Tony's kitchen is calculated as thus.

Volume = Floor Area * Height.

Substitute the values of floor area and height

Volume = 85ft² * 8ft

Volume = 680 ft³

Hence, the volume of Tony's kitchen is 680ft³

Rao's Finance claims that less than 50% of adults in Suva have a will. A will is a legal document that sets forth your wishes regarding the distribution of your property and the care of any minor children. If you die without a will, those wishes may not be carried out. To substantiate the claim, a random sample of 1000 adults showed that 450 of them have a will. A. At the 5% significance level, can you conclude that the percentage of people who have a will is less than 50%? B. What is the Type I error in part A? What is the probability of making this error? C. What would your decision be in part A if the probability of making a Type I error were zero? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

n = sample size = 1000

X = proportion of adults that a will = 450 / 1,000 = 0.45

P-value = 0.5

a = level of significance = 5%, or 0.05

A. At the 5% significance level, can you conclude that the percentage of people who have a will is less than 50%?

Our hypotheses are:

Null hypothesis: u ≥ 0.5

Alternate hypothesis: u < 0.5

Since this indicates a left tailed test, the decision rule is to reject null hypothesis if p-value is less than the level of significance.

[tex]Z = test statistic = \frac{0.45 - 0.5}{0.5/\sqrt{1,000} }[/tex]

Z =  - 0.05 / 0.0158113883008419 = - 3.1623

Using the excel function NORMSDIST(-3.1623), we have:

P- value = 0.000782701129001276, approximately 0.0008

Therefore, null hypothesis is rejected at 5% level of significance since the p-value 0.0008 is less than 5%, or 0.05.

Therefore, there is an enough reason to reject null hypothesis.

B. What is the Type I error in part A? What is the probability of making this error?

Since the probability is greater than 50%, the Type I error is therefore the statement in the question that less than 50% of adults have a will.

Also, the probability of making this Type I error is the 5% level of significance.

C. What would your decision be in part A if the probability of making a Type I error were zero?

The null hypothesis will be rejected if the probability of making a Type I error were zero in part A.

8. Is this relation a function?
{(1, 1)(2, 2)(3, 3)(4,4)}
a) Yes
b) No

Answers

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The inputs in a function should have only one output. In other words, each x value should only be assigned to one y value.

For example, (−2, −1),(1, 0),(1, 5),(2, 0) would not be a function because x value 1 is assigned to both number 0 and number 5.

In (1, 1)(2, 2)(3, 3)(4,4), non of the X values repeat themselves, so it IS a function.

The National Center for Education Statistics surveyed 4400 college graduates about the lengths of time required to earn their bachelor's degrees. The mean was 5.15 years and the standard deviation was 1.68 years. Based on the above information, find the margin of error for a 98% confidence level. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

The margin of error for a 98% confidence level is of 0.06 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1-0.98}{2} = 0.01[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex].

So it is z with a pvalue of [tex]1-0.01 = 0.99[/tex], so [tex]z = 2.327[/tex]

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

In this question:

[tex]\sigma = 1.68, n = 4400[/tex]

So

[tex]M = 2.327*\frac{1.68}{\sqrt{4400}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 0.06[/tex]

The margin of error for a 98% confidence level is of 0.06 years.

The total number of subsets of a set A is 120 more than the total number of subsets of set B. The number of elements in the two sets respectively are
(A) 3, 7 (B) 4, 8 (C) 8, 4 (D) 7, 3

Answers

Answer:

(D) 7, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If a set has 'n' elements, the total number of subsets is (2^n) - 1

So if set A has more subsets than set B, it needs to have more elements, so option (A) and (B) can't be correct.

So, checking option (C), we have:

Set A: number of subsets = 2^8 - 1 = 255

Set A: number of subsets = 2^4 - 1 = 15

Difference: 255 - 15 = 240

The difference is not 120, so this is not the correct option

Option (D):

Set A: number of subsets = 2^7 - 1 = 127

Set A: number of subsets = 2^3 - 1 = 7

Difference: 127 - 7 = 120

Correct option: (D)
