Last month, Curtis bought a new mountain bike for $250. In a store advertisement, the mountain bike is on sale for $210. What is the percent of the decrease in the value of the mountain bike?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16%

Step-by-step explanation:

say the percent decrease = x. Then

x/100 x 250 = 210.

x/2 x 5 = 210

x/2 = 210/5

x/2 = 42

x = 42 x 2

x = 84.....

BUT this is not the answer. We need 100-84=16 for the answer.

So the bike dropped 16%. Thank me later :)

Answer 2

If Curtis bought a new mountain bike for $250. In a store advertisement, the mountain bike is on sale for $210. Then 16%  of the decrease in the value of the mountain bike

What is Percentage?

percentage, a relative value indicating hundredth parts of any quantity

Given,

Curtis bought a new mountain bike for $250.

the mountain bike is on sale for $210.

We need to find the percent of the decrease in the value of the mountain bike.

Let the  percent decrease be x.

x/100 x 250 = 210.

5x/2= 210

Divide both sides by five

x/2 = 210/5

x by two equal to two ten by 5, we get x by two equal to forty two

x/2 = 42

Apply cross multiplication

x = 42 x 2

x = 84.

We need 100-84=16.

Hence 16  percent of the decrease in the value of the mountain bike

Marine biologists have been studying the effects of acidification of the oceans on weights of male baluga whales in the Arctic Ocean. One of the studies involves a random sample of 16 baluga whales. The researchers want to create a 95% confidence interval to estimate the true mean weight of male baluga whales. Their data follow a normal distribution. The population standard deviation of weights of male baluga whales is ????=125 kg, and the researchers feel comfortable using this standard deviation for their confidence interval.
Assuming the relevant requirements are met, calculate the margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean.
a. 15.31 kg
b. 51.40 kg
c. 61.25 kg
d. 80.49 kg

Answers

Answer:

c. 61.25 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean.

a. 15.31 kg

b. 51.40 kg

c. 61.25 kg

d. 80.49 kg

Margin of Error Formula= z × Standard deviation/√n

95% confidence interval = 1.96

Standard deviation = 125kg

n = 16 samples

Margin of error= 1.96 × 125/√16

= 1.96 × 125/4

= 245/4

= 61.25kg

The margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean is 61.25kg

We are using the z score formula when random samples

This is given as:

z = (x-μ)/σ/√n

where x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

n is the random number of samples

a.If 100 SAT scores are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean less than 1500.

For x = 1500, n = 100

z = 1500 - 1518/325/√100

z = -18/325/10

z = -18/32.5

z = -0.55385

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<1500) = 0.28984

Approximately = 0.2898

b. If 64 SAT scores are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean greater than 1600

For x = 1600, n = 64

= z = 1600 - 1518/325/√64.

z= 1600 - 1518 /325/8

z = 2.01846

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<1600) = 0.97823

P(x>1600) = 1 - P(x<1600) = 0.021772

Approximately = 0.0218

c. If 25 SAT scores are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean between 1550 and 1575

For x = 1550, n = 25

z = 1550 - 1518/325/√25

z = 1550 - 1518/325/5

z = 1550 - 1518/65

= 0.49231

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 1550) = 0.68875

For x = 1575 , n = 25

z = 1575 - 1518/325/√25

z = 1575 - 1518/325/5

z = 1575 - 1518/65

z = 0.87692

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x=1575) = 0.80974

The probability that they have a mean between 1550 and 1575

P(x = 1575) - P(x = 1550)

= 0.80974 - 0.68875

= 0.12099

Approximately = 0.1210

d. If 16 SAT scores are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean between 1440 and 1480

For x = 1440, n = 16

z = 1440 - 1518/325/√16

= -0.96

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 1440) = 0.16853

For x = 1480, n = 16

z = 1480 - 1518/325/√16

=-0.46769

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 1480) = 0.32

The probability that they have a mean between 1440 and 1480

P(x = 1480) - P(x = 1440)

= 0.32 - 0.16853

= 0.15147

Approximately = 0.1515

e. In part c and part d, why can the central limit theorem be used even though the sample size does not exceed 30?

The central theorem can be used even though the sample size does not exceed 30 because the population is normally distributed.

A can of paint will cover 400 square feet. What is the length of the edge of the largest square that can be painted with this can of paint?

Answers

For the area of a circle is πr² as you stated so all you do is set 400 equal to πr² and solve for r.

400=πr²/π
127.32=r²
√127.32)= r
r=11.3

Same thing for this except you use 800 instead of 400 so.

800=πr²
254.64=r²
√254.64)= r
r=15.9 or 16.0 for rounding purposes.

Daniel bought a package of 12 water bottles for $6. Write an equation that relates the cost, c, of a package of water bottles to the number of bottles, b, in the package?

Answers

Answer:

c = 2b

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the cost of one water bottle by dividing the total cost by the number of water bottles:

12/6

= 2

Then, set up an equation.

2b, where b is the number of bottles, represents the cost of the package of water bottles.

Set this equal to c, the cost, to create the equation.

c = 2b is the equation relating the cost to the number of bottles

What is the measure of an angle if the measures of its two adjacent supplementary angles add up to 100°?

The answer is not 80 btw

Answers

Answer:  130

Explanation:

Let x be the unknown angle we want to find.

Let y be adjacent and supplementary to x. This means x+y = 180

Let z also be adjacent and supplementary to x. So x+z = 180 also

Subtracting the two equations leads to y-z = 0 and y = z. So effectively we've proven the vertical angle theorem.

Since the supplementary angles to x add to 100, we know that y+z = 100. Plug in y = z and solve for z

y+z = 100

z+z = 100

2z = 100

z = 100/2

z = 50

Therefore,

x+z = 180

x+50 = 180

x = 180-50

x = 130

Answer:

130°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown angle we want to find.

Let y be adjacent and supplementary to x. This means x+y = 180

Let z also be adjacent and supplementary to x. So x+z = 180 also

Subtracting the two equations leads to y-z = 0 and y = z. So effectively we've proven the vertical angle theorem.

Since the supplementary angles to x add to 100, we know that y+z = 100. Plug in y = z and solve for z

y+z = 100

z+z = 100

2z = 100

z = 100/2

z = 50

Therefore,

x+z = 180

x+50 = 180

x = 180-50

x = 130

The following is a set of hypotheses, some information from one or more samples, and a standard error from a randomization distribution. Test H0 : p=0.28 vs Ha : p<0.28 when the sample has n=800, and p^=0.217 with SE=0.01.

Answer:

Z = -6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]\mathbf{H_o :p= 0.28}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{H_o :p < 0.28}[/tex]

Since the alternative hypothesis is less than 0.28, then this is a left-tailed hypothesis.

Sample sixe n = 800

[tex]\hat p[/tex] = 0.217

The standard error [tex]S.E(p) = \sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]S.E(p) = \sqrt{\dfrac{0.28(1-0.28)}{800}}[/tex]

[tex]S.E(p) \simeq0.015[/tex]

Since this is a single proportional test, the test statistics can be computed as:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{\hat p - p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{0.217- 0.28}{0.01}[/tex]

Z = -6.3
