According to a 2009 Reader's Digest article, people throw away approximately 90% of what they buy at the grocery store. Assume this is the true proportion and you plan to randomly survey 100 grocery shoppers to investigate their behavior.

Required:
What is the probability that the sample proportion exceeds 0.84?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.9495

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Population proportion; p = 90% = 0.9

Sample size; n = 100

Sample Proportion; p^ = 0.84

Formula to find the probability that sample proportion exceeds 0.84 is;

Z = P(p^ > 0.84) = (p - p^)/√(p^(1 - p^)/n)

Z = (0.84 - 0.9)/√(0.84(1 - 0.84)/100)

Z = -0.06/0.03666

Z = -1.64

From online z-score calculator attached, the probability is;

P(x>Z) = 0.9495

Find the present value of an annuity due that pays $4000 at the beginning of each quarter for the next 7 years. Assume that money is worth 6.2%, compounded quarterly. If $90,000 is invested in an annuity that earns 5.4%, compounded quarterly, what payments will it provide at the end of each quarter for the next 7 1/2 years?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the first question:

We are to find PV of the annuity.

Using the formula:

Present value of Annuity  = Annuity Amount × Present Value Annuity Factor i.e. PVAF (n , r)

Where , Annuity Amount = $4,000            

n = No. of periods = 7 years × 4 quarters per year = 28 periods but since the first payment is at beginning of the quarter, Then, n = 27 when considered for PVAF

r  = 6.2% / 4 quarters = 1.55%,

PVAF(n0,r) when first payment is at beginning of n i.e. n0 = 1 + { [1-(1+r)^ -n0 ]/r }

= 1 + { [1-(1+0.0155)^ {-27}]/0.0155 }

= 1 + [ (1 - 0.66015 ) ] / 0.0155]

= 1 + 21.926

= 22.926

PVAF(28,1.55%) = 22.926

Thus , Present Value of Annuity = $4,000 × 22.926  = $91704.00

2. Present value of Annuity due = Annuity Amount × Present Value Annuity Factor i.e. PVAF (n , r)

Present Value of Annuity  = $90,000

n = No. of periods = 7.5 years × 4 quarters per year = 30 periods

r  = 5.4% / 4 quarters = 1.35%,

PVAF(n,r) = [1-(1+r)^-n]/r

PVAF(n,r) = [1-(1+0.0135)^ -30]/0.0135

PVAF(30,1.35%) = (1 - 0.6688)/0.0135

PVAF(30,1.35%) = 0.3312/0.0135

PVAF(30,1.35%) = 24.53

Hence ;

$90,000 = Annuity Amount × 24.53

Annuity amount = $90,000/24.53 = $3,668.48

(3) Differentiating both sides of

[tex]2x^{3/2} + y^{3/2} = 29[/tex]

with respect to x gives

[tex]3x^{1/2} + \dfrac32 y^{1/2} \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 0[/tex]

Solve for dy/dx :

[tex]\dfrac32 y^{1/2} \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = -3x^{1/2} \\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{-3x^{1/2}}{\frac32y^{1/2}} = \dfrac{-2x^{1/2}}{y^{1/2}} = -2\sqrt{\dfrac xy}[/tex]

Then the slope of the tangent line to the curve at (1, 9) is

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = -2\sqrt{\dfrac19} = -\dfrac23[/tex]

The equation of the tangent line would then be

y - 9 = -2/3 (x - 1)   ==>   y = -2/3 x + 29/3

(4) The slope of the tangent line to

[tex]y=\dfrac{ax+1}{x-2}[/tex]

at a point (x, y) on the curve is

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{a(x-2)-(ax+1)}{(x-2)^2} = -\dfrac{2a+1}{(x-2)^2}[/tex]

When x = -1, we have a slope of 2/3, so

-(2a + 1)/(-1 - 2)² = 2/3

Solve for a :

-(2a + 1)/9 = 2/3

2a + 1 = -18/3 = -6

2a = -7

a = -7/2

At a toy store, Colton can buy a package of 6 mini footballs for $7.50, or a package of 8 mini footballs for $9.60. Which option has the lesser price?

Answers

Answer:

The 8-pack is better value

Step-by-step explanation:

$7.50/6 = $1.25 per ball

$9.60/8 = $1.20 per ball

The 8-pack is a better value if the toy store, Colton can buy a package of 6 mini footballs for $7.50, or a package of 8 mini footballs for $9.60.

What is a fraction?

Fraction number consists of two parts, one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.

It is given that:

At a toy store, Colton can buy a package of 6 mini footballs for $7.50, or a package of 8 mini footballs for $9.60.

For:

At a toy store, Colton can buy a package of 6 mini footballs for $7.50

Each ball price

$7.50/6 = $1.25 per ball

Each ball price

$9.60/8 = $1.20 per ball

The 8-pack is a better value

Thus, the 8-pack is a better value if the toy store, Colton can buy a package of 6 mini footballs for $7.50, or a package of 8 mini footballs for $9.60.

The entrance for the amusement park is $40, visitors purchase additional $2
tickets for rides, games and food. How many tickets can you buy if you
brought $100 to spend at the park?

Answers

Answer:

2 tickets because round

Step-by-step explanation:

make an equation: 100=40x+2 and solve

2.45 tickets so only two

40+40 =80

100-80=20

but 100-2=98 so there is only 18$ left so not enough for another ticket

Answer:

30 Tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, it said that $40 is the entrance fee. Then, it said that visitors purchase additional tickets for rides, games, and food. This means that EACH ticket is 2 dollars.

Hence, $40 (entrance fee) + $2 (each ticket price) x (the number of tickets spent) = 100 (total amount of money).

So, the equation should be 40 + 2x = 100, which means x = 30.

100 - 40 = 60

60/2 = 30

30 tickets can be purchased

below, wiere x represents the number of years after 1986, and y represents the number of bald eagle breeding pairs. Interpret the y-

intercept

y = 1.772 +334x

Answer:

B. There were approximately 1.772 eagle breeding pairs in 1986

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the regression equation : y = 1.772 +334x

Recall the general form of a linear regression equation :

y = mx + c

y = predicted variable ; x = predictor Variable ; c = intercept ; m = slope

x = number of years after 1986 ; y = number of bald eagle pairs.

The intercept is a constant value at time t = 0

For x to be 0, on a graph, this this the value on the y axis where the regression line crosses the y - axis. That is in 1986; the number of y when in 1986 when x = 0 is 1.772

An auto mechanic earns $498.75 in 35 hours during the week. His pay is 2.50 more per hour on the weekends. If he works 6 hours on the weekend in addition to 35 hours during the week,hiw much does he earn

Answers

Answer:

Total pay= $599.25

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the unitary pay per hour:

Unitary pay= 498.75/35

Unitary pay= $14.25

Now, we can determine the total earn of 35 regular hours and 6 weekend hours:

Total pay= 498.75 + (14.25 + 2.5)*6

Total pay= 498.75 + 100.5

Total pay= $599.25

Three friends each have some ribbon. Carol has 90 inches of ribbon, Tino has 7.5 feet of ribbon, and Baxter has 3.5 yards of ribbon. Express the total length of ribbon the three friends have in inches, feet, and yards.

Answers

Answer: 306 inches or 25.5 feet or 8.5 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Carol has 90 inches of ribbon, Tino has 7.5 feet of ribbon, and Baxter has 3.5 yards of ribbon.

1 feet = 12 inches

length of ribbon Tino has = 12 x 7.5 = 90 inches

1 yard = 36 inches

length of ribbon Baxter has = 3.5 x 36 = 126 inches

Total ribbon they have = (length of ribbon Carol has) + (length of ribbon Tino has) + (length of ribbon Baxter has)

= (90+90+126) inches

= 306 inches

In feet , Total ribbon = [tex]\dfrac{306}{12}\text{ feet}[/tex]   [tex][\text{ 1 inch}=\dfrac{1}{12}\text{ feet}][/tex]

[tex]=\text{25.5 feet}[/tex]

In yards, Total ribbon =[tex]\dfrac{25.5}{3}\text{ yards}[/tex]    [tex][\text{1 feet}=\dfrac{1}{3}\text{ yard}][/tex]

[tex]=\text{ 8.5 yards}[/tex]

Hence, the total length of ribbon the three friends have is 306 inches or 25.5 feet or 8.5 yards.
