State sales tax y is directly proportional to retail price x. An item that sells for 156 dollars has a sales tax of 14.42 dollars. Find a mathematical model that gives the amount of sales tax y in terms of the retail price x .
What is the sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase.
Answer:
The sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase is of $29.6.
Step-by-step explanation:
State sales tax y is directly proportional to retail price x.
This means that:
[tex]y = cx[/tex]
In which c is the constant of proportionality.
An item that sells for 156 dollars has a sales tax of 14.42 dollars.
This means that [tex]x = 156, y = 14.42[/tex]. We use this to find c. So
[tex]y = cx[/tex]
[tex]14.42 = 156c[/tex]
[tex]c = \frac{14.42}{156}[/tex]
[tex]c = 0.0924[/tex]
Then
[tex]y = 0.0924x[/tex]
What is the sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase?
y when [tex]x = 320[/tex]. So
[tex]y = 0.0924(320) = 29.6[/tex]
The sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase is of $29.6.

The CPA Practice Advisor reports that the mean preparation fee for 2017 federal income tax returns was $273. Use this price as the population mean and assume the population standard deviation of preparation fees is $100.A) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?B) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 50 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?C) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 100 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?D) Which, if any of the sample sizes in part (a), (b), and (c) would you recommend to ensure at least a .95 probability that the same mean is withing $16 of the population mean?
Answer:
a) 0.6212 = 62.12% probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.
b) 0.7416 = 74.16% probability that the mean price for a sample of 50 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.
c) 0.8804 = 88.04% probability that the mean price for a sample of 100 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.
d) None of them ensure, that one which comes closer is a sample size of 100 in option c), to guarantee, we need to keep increasing the sample size.
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.
The CPA Practice Advisor reports that the mean preparation fee for 2017 federal income tax returns was $273. Use this price as the population mean and assume the population standard deviation of preparation fees is $100.
This means that [tex]\mu = 273, \sigma = 100[/tex]
A) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?
Sample of 30 means that [tex]n = 30, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{30}}[/tex]
The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 273 + 16 = 289 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 273 - 16 = 257. So
X = 289
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{289 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.88[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.88[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8106
X = 257
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{257 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.88[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.88[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1894
0.8106 - 0.1894 = 0.6212
0.6212 = 62.12% probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.
B) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 50 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?
Sample of 30 means that [tex]n = 50, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{50}}[/tex]
X = 289
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{289 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{50}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.13[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.13[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8708
X = 257
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{257 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{50}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.13[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.13[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1292
0.8708 - 0.1292 = 0.7416
0.7416 = 74.16% probability that the mean price for a sample of 50 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.
C) What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 100 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean?
Sample of 30 means that [tex]n = 100, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}[/tex]
X = 289
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{289 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.6[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.6[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9452
X = 257
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{257 - 273}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.6[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.6[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0648
0.9452 - 0.0648 =
0.8804 = 88.04% probability that the mean price for a sample of 100 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean.
D) Which, if any of the sample sizes in part (a), (b), and (c) would you recommend to ensure at least a .95 probability that the same mean is withing $16 of the population mean?
None of them ensure, that one which comes closer is a sample size of 100 in option c), to guarantee, we need to keep increasing the sample size.
C is actually 0.8904

and positive means that the changes go in the same sign direction. increase => increase. decrease => decrease.
a pie chart is divided into four sectors in fig. 12.42. Each sector represents a percentage of the whole. The two larger sectors are equal and each represents x%. What is the angle subtended by one of those larger sectors ?
Answer:
Angle formed by the sector measuring x% will be 126°.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, sum of all sectors formed in a circle is 100%.
By adding the measures of all the sectors,
x + x + 21 + 9 = 100
2x + 30 = 100
2x = 70
x = 35%
Now we know sum of all the central angles formed at the center of a circle = 360°
Therefore, angle formed by x% = 360° × 35%
= [tex]\frac{360\times 35}{100}[/tex]
= 126°
A box contains 5 white balls, 3 black balls, and 2 red balls.A-What is the probability of drawing a white ball?B- How many white balls must be added to the box so that the probability of drawing a white ball is 3/4?C-How many black balls must be added to the original assortment so that the probability of drawing a white ball is 1/4?
Answer:
[tex](a)\ P(White) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
(b) 10 additional white balls
(c) 10 additional black balls
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]White = 5[/tex]
[tex]Black =3[/tex]
[tex]Red = 2[/tex]
Solving (a): P(White)
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(White) = \frac{White}{Total}[/tex]
[tex]P(White) = \frac{5}{5+3+2}[/tex]
[tex]P(White) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]
[tex]P(White) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Solving (b): Additional white balls, if [tex]P(White) = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Let the additional white balls be x
So:
[tex]P(White) = \frac{White+x}{Total+x}[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]\frac{3}{4} = \frac{5+x}{10+x}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]30+3x = 20 + 4x[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]4x - 3x = 30 - 20[/tex]
[tex]x = 10[/tex]
Hence, 10 additional white balls must be added
Solving (c): Additional black balls, if [tex]P(White) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Let the additional black balls be x
So:
[tex]P(White) = \frac{White}{Total+x}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\frac{1}{4} = \frac{5}{10+x}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]10+x = 5 * 4[/tex]
[tex]10+x = 20[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]x = 20 -10[/tex]
[tex]x = 10[/tex]
Hence, 10 additional black balls must be added

Answer:
[tex]p=2\\q=4[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
One is given the following system of equations,
[tex]3p + 4q = 22\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]
The fastest method to solve a system of equations is the method of elimination. This process is manipulating one of the equations, by multiplying or diving it by a value, such that one of the coefficients variables in the equation is the additive inverse of the like term in the other equation. That way, when one adds the equations, one of the variables cancels out. Then one can solve for the other term. Finally, one can back sovle by substituting the value of the solved variable into one of the equations and simplifying to find the value of the other variable.
[tex]3p + 4q = 22\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]
Manipulate the first equation so that the variable (q) cancels
[tex](3p + 4q = 22) *(-3)\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]
[tex]-9p + -12q = -66\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]
Add the equations,
[tex]-9p + -12q = -66\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]
[tex](10p-9p)+(-12q+12q)=(-66+68)[/tex]
Simplify,
[tex](10p-9p)+(-12q+12q)=(-66+68)[/tex]
[tex]p=2[/tex]
Backsovle for the variable (p). Substitute the values of (p) into one of the original equations. Then simplify and use inverse operations to solve for the variable (q).
[tex]3p+4q=22[/tex]
Substitute,
[tex]3(2)+4q=22[/tex]
Simplify,
[tex]3(2)+4q=22[/tex]
[tex]6+4q=22[/tex]
Inverse operations,
[tex]6+4q=22[/tex]
[tex]4q=16\\q=4[/tex]

An electronic system contains three cooling components that operate independently. The probability of each component's failure is 0.05. The system will overheat if and only if at least two components fail. Calculate the probability that the system will overheat.
Answer:
[tex]Pr= 0.00725[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]p = 0.05[/tex] ---- probability that each component fails
[tex]n = 3[/tex]
Required
[tex]P(System\ Overheats)[/tex]
We understand that the system will overheat if at least 2 component fails; Assume the components are: x, y and z
The events that the system will overheat are: xyz', xy'z, x'yz and xyz
Where ' means that the component did not fail, and the probability is 1 - p (i.e. complement rule)
So, we have:
[tex]xyz' \to 0.05 * 0.05 * (1 - 0.05) = 0.002375[/tex]
[tex]xy'z \to 0.05 * (1 - 0.05)* 0.05 = 0.002375[/tex]
[tex]x'yz \to (1 - 0.05)* 0.05 * 0.05 = 0.002375[/tex]
[tex]xyz \to 0.05 * 0.05 * 0.05 =0.000125[/tex]
So, the required probability is:
[tex]Pr= 0.002375 +0.002375 +0.002375 + 0.000125[/tex]
[tex]Pr= 0.00725[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
At a local community college, 57% of students who enter the college as freshmen go on to graduate. Five freshmen are randomly selected.
a. What is the probability that none of them graduates from the local community college? (Do not round intermediate calculations Round your final answer to 4 decimal places Probability
b. What is the probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 4 decimal places.)
c. What is the expected number that will graduate? (Round your final answer to 2 decimal places)
Answer:
a) 0.0147 = 1.47% probability that none of them graduates from the local community college.
b) 0.9398 = 93.98% probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college.
c) The expected number that will graduate is 2.85.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will graduate, or they will not. The probability of a student graduating is independent of any other student graduating, 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.
57% of students who enter the college as freshmen go on to graduate.
This means that [tex]p = 0.57[/tex]
Five freshmen are randomly selected.
This means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]
a. What is the probability that none of them graduates from the local community college?
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_{5,0}.(0.57)^{0}.(0.43)^{5} = 0.0147[/tex]
0.0147 = 1.47% probability that none of them graduates from the local community college.
b. What is the probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college?
This is:
[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X = 5)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.57)^{5}.(0.43)^{0} = 0.0602[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X = 5) = 1 - 0.0602 = 0.9398[/tex]
0.9398 = 93.98% probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college.
c. What is the expected number that will graduate?
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
In this question:
[tex]E(X) = 5*0.57 = 2.85[/tex]
The expected number that will graduate is 2.85.

Agan Interior Design provides home and office decorating assistance to its customers. In normal operation, an average of 2.5 customers arrive each hour. One design consultant is available to answer customer questions and make product recommendations. The consultant averages 10 minutes with each customer. Compute the operating characteristics of the customer waiting line, assuming Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. Round your answers to four decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Answer:
the operating characteristics have been solved below
Step-by-step explanation:
we have an average of 10 minutes per customers
μ = mean service rate = 60/10 = 6 customers in one hr
the average number of customers that are waiting in line
mean arrival λ = 2.5
μ = 6
[tex]Lq = \frac{2.5^{2} }{6(6-2.5)} \\[/tex]
= 6.25/21
= 0.2976
we calculate the average number of customers that are in the system
[tex]L=Lq+\frac{2.5}{6}[/tex]
= 0.2976+0.4167
= 0.7143
we find the average time that a customer spends in waiting
[tex]Wq=\frac{0.2976}{2.5}[/tex]
= 0.1190 hours
when converted to minutes = 0.1190*60 = 7.1424 minutes
[tex]0.1190+\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
=0.2857
probability that arriving customers would wait for the service
= 2.5÷6 = 0.4167

A rectangular vegetable garden will have a width that is 3 feet less than the length, and an area of 54square feet. If x represents the length, then the length can be found by solving the equation: x(x-3)=54 What is the length, x, of the garden? The length is blank feet.
Answer: 9 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given, we have already been given the equation which is x(x-3)=54. Therefore we will find the value of x which will be:
x(x-3)=54
x² - 3x - 54
x² - 9x + 6x - 54
x(x - 9) + 6(x - 9)
Therefore,
(x - 9) = 0
x = 0 + 9
x = 9
The length is 9 feet
The width will be:
x - 3 = 9 - 3 = 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:
the 9th percentile is equal to a zscore of -1.34
-1.34=(x-50)/9
x=37.94
Can someone help me out here? Not sure how to solve this problem or where to start either?
Answer:
19.3 miles per gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
First, subtract 54,042.8-53,737.7. The answer is 305.1
Then, find the unit rate. 305.1/15.8
You get 19.31012658. The prompt says to round to the nearest tenth, so round, and you get 19.3.
That's your answer!

Sixty percent of all children in a school do not have cavities. The probability, rounded to four decimal places, that in a random sample of 9 children selected from this school, at least 6 do not have cavities is:
Answer:
probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 0.8
Step-by-step explanation
Given:
Number of student do not have cavities = 60%
Number of random sample = 9 children
Find:
Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities]
Computation:
n = 9
p = 60% = 0.6
P(At least 6)
Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 1 - P(Less than 6)
Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 1 - P(Less than or equal to 6)
Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 0.8
