A TV report conducted a survey of 947 people in New York City and found that 35% of the population believe that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year. In the accompanying dialogue, the reporter states, we are 97% confident that the true proportion of people in New York City who believe that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year lies between 28% and 42% . What does 35% represent in the report
Answer:
[tex]35\%[/tex] represents the sample proportion of the population
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 947
The proportion of the population that believes that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year is [tex]k = 35\% = 0.35[/tex]
From the question we are told the confidence level is 97%
The lower limit of the confidence level is a = 28%
The upper limit of the b = 42%
Generally the sample proportion of this population is mathematically represented as
[tex]\^ p = \frac{a+ b}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]\^ p = \frac{28 + 42 }{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]\^ p = 35\%[/tex]
Hence [tex]35\%[/tex] represents the sample proportion
MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER Jack has decided to advertise the sale of his car by placing flyers in the student union and the dining hall of the college. He estimates that there is a probability of 0.4 that a potential buyer will read the advertisement and that, if it is read, the probability that the reader will buy his car will be 0.1. Using these estimates, find the probability that a potential buyer will read the ad and will buy Jack's car.
Answer:
The probability that a potential buyer will read the advert and will buy Jack's car is 0.04
Step-by-step explanation:
Estimate 1: There's a 0.4 probability that a potential buyer will read the advert.
Estimate 2: There's a 0.1 probability that whoever reads the advert will buy his car.
- As you can see, the probability of success of this event decreases; from the point of Jack placing an advert, to the point of someone purchasing his car.
- That someone reads the advert does not mean that he or she would be interested in or capable of purchasing the car.
- That someone has the capacity to buy the car (potential buyer) does not mean they'll eventually buy it.
- So altogether, there is a low probability of each reader purchasing the car, and that's 0.1
In the calculation of probability, "and" represents multiplication. Hence,
0.4 × 0.1 = 0.04

The total driving distance from El Paso, TX to Corpus Christi, TX is 699 miles or 1 125 kilometers.
Answer:
1 inch
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 inch = 0.5 inch
0.5/300 = n/600
0.5 * 600 = n * 300

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
abc=80, abm= 100
acb= 40, acn= 140
angle a = 60
x=80, y=40
Answer:
x = 80° y = 40°
Step-by-step explanation:
ABC = 80° ACB = 40°
ABC+ACB+A = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle = 180°)
80+40+A = 180°
A = 60° (sum of angles in a triangle = 180°)
X = 80° (ALTERNATE ANGLES, angles x is alternate to angle ABC = 80° )
y = 40° (alternate angles, angle y is alternate to angle ACB = 40°)
to cross-check : sum of angles on a straight line = 180°
x+ y + A = 180sum of angles on a straight line = 180°
80+40+60 = 180°
ABM = 100° = (sum of angles on a straight line = 180°)
80° + 100° = 180°
ACN = 140° (sum of angles on a straight line = 180°)
40° + 140° = 180°

Find the cost of tiling a rectangular plot of land 300 m long and 150 m wide at the rate of $6 per square m.
Answer:
$270,000
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the area of the plot using the formula A = lw
A = lw
A = (300)(150)
A = 45,000
Then, multiply this by 6 to find the total cost:
45,000(6)
= 270,000
So, the cost to tile the plot is $270,000
Answer:
2700
Step-by-step explanation:
Length= 300m
width= 150 m
Area = Lx W = 300 x 150= 4500 sq m
rate per 100 sq meter= 6
so total cost = 4500/ 100 x 6
= 2700

Answer:
y = 64
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles are supplementary, that is sum to 180° , thus
2(x + 6) + y = 180 ← substitute x = 52
2(52 + 6) + y = 180
2(58) + y = 180
116 + y = 180 ( subtract 116 from both sides )
y = 64

Find x and y, there is no given info, and the line that is 8 units long is not a midsegment, but it is parallel to the line that is ten units long
Answer:
y = 1.75
x = 1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles have equal angles, you can use ratios to solve for x and y.
For y:
[tex]\frac{8}{10} =\frac{7}{a} \\8a=70\\a=8.75[/tex]
Subtract 7 from a to find y.
y = 8.75 - 7
y = 1.75
For x:
[tex]\frac{8}{10} =\frac{5}{b} \\8b=50\\b=6.25[/tex]
Subtract 5 from b to find x.
x = 6.25 - 5
x = 1.25

To do this, we make use of sine law. This is as follows:
[tex]\frac{a}{\sin\ A} = \frac{b}{\sin\ B} = \frac{c}{\sin\ C}[/tex]
In this case:
[tex]\frac{4}{\sin(45)} = \frac{XY}{\sin(60)}[/tex]
Cross Multiply
[tex]XY * \sin(45) = 4 * \sin(60)[/tex]
[tex]XY * 0.7071 = 4 * 0.8660[/tex]
Make XY the subject
[tex]XY = \frac{4 * 0.8660}{0.7071}[/tex]
[tex]XY = \frac{3.4640}{0.7071}[/tex]
[tex]XY = 4.89888276057[/tex]
[tex]XY = 4.9[/tex] -- approximated

Reid's Hardware discounts all riding lawnmowers 9% to customers paying in cash. If Trey paid $1,390.49 in cash for a riding lawnmower, which of the following equations can be used to determine the original price of the lawnmower?
Answer:
The original price of the lawnmower is $ 1,528.
Step-by-step explanation:
If Reid's Hardware makes a 9% discount on cash payments, and Trey paid $ 1,390.49 for his lawnmower, to determine the initial cost of the same, the following calculation must be performed:
100 - 9 = 91
91 = 1,390.49
100 = X
(100 x 1,390.49) / 91 = X
139.049 / 91 = X
1.528 = X
Thus, the original price of the lawnmower is $ 1,528.
Lydia receives a $2,000 gift and wants to open a savings account. Which bank interest would be the best for her if the current inflation rate is 3.5%?
Answer:
the best interest rate would be a minimum of 3.5% annual interest
Step-by-step explanation:
An inflation rate of 3.5% would mean that the buying power of Lydia's money would decrease by 3.5% every single year. Therefore, the best interest rate would be a minimum of 3.5% annual interest. That way she would at least maintain the same buying power with her money as the day that she first placed it in the account. Any interest rate higher than 3.5% would be even better as Lydia will begin to make a profit from her savings.

Aden started with 6 cups of water. Throughout the day he drank the following amounts: 1 1/3 cups, 1 1/2 cups, 1 2/3 cups, and 3/4 cup. How many cups of water are left?
A. 2/3
B. 3/4
C. 1 1/3
D. 1/4
Answer:
B. 3/4 cup of water
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/3 + 1 1/2 + 1 2/3 + 3/4 = 5 1/4
6 - 5 1/4 = 3/4
Answer: B or 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
ok first add all the amounts he drank together
1 1/3 + 1 1/2 + 1 2/3 + 3/4
because the denominators are all different, you have to change them to a common denominator, which is 12. i've also changed them to improper fractions.
1 1/3 = 4/3 = 16/12 1 1/2 = 3/2= 18/12 1 2/3 = 5/3= 20/12 3/4 = 9/12
now add them all together
16/12 + 18/12 + 20/12 + 9/12 = 63/12
now convert the original 6 cups to an improper fraction with the denominator of 12
6 = 72/12
now subtract 63/12 (the amount he drank) from 72/12 (the amount he started with)
72/12 - 63/12 = 9/12
9/12 is able to be simplified to 3/4
so the correct answer is B, or 3/4
