Answer:
A) Upper limit = 7.39
Lower limit = 6.37
Margin of error = 0.51
B)Sample size = 87
C) Upper limit = 2218.50
Lower limit = 1909.50
Margin of error = 154.50
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
x¯ = $6.88 per 100 pounds
σ = $1.98 per 100 pounds
n = 45
A) We want to find a 90% Confidence interval. It means the significance level is; 1 - 0.9 = 0.1
Critical z-value for significance level of 0.1 is z = 1.645
Now, margin of error is;
MOE = zσ/√n
MOE = (1.645 × 1.98)/√40
MOE ≈ 0.51
Confidence interval is;
CI = x¯ ± MOE
CI = 6.88 ± 0.51
CI = ((6.88 + 0.51), (6.88 - 0.51))
CI = (7.39, 6.37)
Upper limit = 7.39
Lower limit = 6.37
B) We are given E = 0.35
Thus;
E = zσ/√n
Rearranging, we have;
n = (zσ/E)²
n = (1.645 × 1.98/0.35)²
n ≈ 87
Sample size = 87
C)We are told that the farm brings 15 tons of watermelon to market.
Also, 1 ton = 2000 pounds
Thus;
15 tons = 15 × 2000 pounds = 30000 pounds
Now this is per 100 pounds.
Thus, we can write as: 30000/100 = 300 pounds
So;
x¯ = 300 × 6.88
x¯ = 2064
σ = 1.98 × 300
σ = 594
Critical z-value for significance level of 0.1 is z = 1.645
Now, margin of error is;
MOE = zσ/√n
MOE = (1.645 × 594)/√40
MOE ≈ 154.50
Confidence interval is;
CI = x¯ ± MOE
CI = 2064 ± 154.50
CI = (2064 + 154.50, 2064 - 154.50)
CI = (2218.5, 1909.5)
Upper limit = 2218.50
Lower limit = 1909.50
Personal Finance: Cost of a Car The suggested list price of a new car is $24,000. The dealer’s cost is 85% of list. How much will you pay if the dealer is willing to accept $300 over cost for the car?
Answer: $20,700
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
List price of car = $24,000
Dealer's cost = 85% of the list price of the car
Dealer acceptance cost = $300 over the cost
Hence, total amount to be paid :
Dealer's cost + dealer's acceptance cost
Dealer's cost = (0.85 * $24,000) = $21,400
Hence, Total cost :
$20,400 + $300 = $20,700

The table shows the makeup of a New Year’s Eve television show. What fraction of the show will be for the audience to speak?
Table:
Introduction: 10%
Skits: 25%
Guests: 45%
Audience: 20%
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the fraction of the show will be for the audience to speak. Here, the part of the audience is 20%.
We know that, percent means we need to divide the value by 100 i.e.
[tex]20\%=\dfrac{20}{100}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{10}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]
So, the required fraction is 1/5.
Aloma, a university graduate who started a successful business, wants to start an endowment in her name that will provide scholarships to ChE students. She wants the scholarship to provide $13,000 per year and expects the first one to be awarded on the day she fulfills the endowment obligation. If Aloma plans to donate $240,000, what rate of return must the university realize in order to award the annual scholarship forever?
The rate of return that the university must realize in order to award the annual scholarship forever is _____%.
Answer:
5.73%
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculation for the rate of return that the university must realize
Using this formula
Rate of return = Initial payment/(Plan to donate- Initial payment)
Let plug in the formula
Rate of return=$13,000/($240,000-$13,000)
Rate of return=$13,000/$227,000
Rate of return=0.0573*100
Rate of return =5.73%
Therefore The rate of return that the university must realize in order to award the annual scholarship forever is 5.73 %.

What is the percent decrease when the balance in a bank account goes from $300 to $60?
The percent decrease is 20%.
The percent decrease is 25%.
The percent decrease is 80%.
The percent decrease is 87%.
Answer:
according to me I think that the percentage decrease is 80% and this is how I got it I took 60 and subtracted it from 300 to get 240 then I took 240 over 300 * 100% and I got 80%
Step-by-step explanation:
the percent decrease is 87%
Can somebody please help me with this math problem
Answer:
According to the question 25% of the students wore jackets.
Thus 25% of 12 wore jackets
The number of students can be found easily by multipling 12 with 25//100
12*25/100
12*1/4
12/4
thus, 3 students
Therefore, option 3 is correct
.The annual yield per orange tree is fairly constant at 270 pounds per tree when the number of trees per acre is 30 or fewer. For each additional tree over 30, the annual yield per tree for all trees on the acre decreases by 3 pounds due to overcrowding. Find the number of orange trees per acre, x, that maximizes the total yield for an acre, T, in pounds. What is the total maximum yield in pounds of oranges
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the yield per hectare be Y and the number of orange trees per acre, x. For fewer than or 30 trees there is a yield of 270 pounds per tree, therefore:
Y(x) = 270 for x ≤ 30
If it is more than 30 trees the yield decreases by 3 pounds, hence:
Y(x) = 270 - 3(x - 30) = 360 - 3x for x > 30
The total yield T is given as T(x) = x × Y
T(x) = x × 270 = 270x for x ≤ 30
T(x) = x(360 - 3x) = 360x - 3x² for x > 30
The maximum yield is at T'(x) = 0
T'(x) = 360 - 6x
360 - 6x = 0
6x = 360
x = 360/6
x = 60
T(6) = 360(60) - 3(60²) = 10800 pounds

∠A and ∠ B ∠B are vertical angles. If m ∠ A = ( 7 x − 8 ) ∘ ∠A=(7x−8) ∘ and m ∠ B = ( 6 x + 17 ) ∘ ∠B=(6x+17) ∘ , then find the value of x.
Answer:
it adds up to 180º so i think you have to do the varibles that are on the same side and see what you get and then do -8 +17 then you sub or add from 180 then you get your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of x for the given vertical angles is given as 25.
How to write a linear equation?A linear equation for the given case can be written by assuming any variable as the unknown quantity. Then, as per the given data the required operations are done and it is equated to some value.
The pair of vertical angles are given as below,
∠A = (7x - 8)° and ∠B = (6x + 17)°.
Since, pair of vertically opposite angles are equal.
It implies that ∠A = ∠B.
⇒ 7x - 8 = 6x + 17
⇒ 7x - 6x = 17 + 8
⇒ x = 25
Hence, the value of x can be obtained as 25.

The lions and the tigers played a football game the lions scored three more than three times the number of points the tigers scored
This question is incomplete
Complete Question
The lions and the tigers played a football game. The Lions scored three more than three times the number of points the Tigers scored. The total number of points scored by both teams is 31. How many points were scored by each team?
Answer:
The number of points scored by the Lions = 24
The number of points scored by the Tigers = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of points scored by the lion = l
The number of points scored by the tiger = t
The Lions scored three more than three times the number of points the Tigers scored.
l = 3 + 3(t)
The total number of points scored by both teams is 31.
= l + t = 31
3 + 3t + t = 31
4t = 31 - 3
4t = 28
t = 28/4
t = 7 points
Note:
l + t = 31
I = 31 - t
l = 31 - 7
l = 24 points
The number of points scored by the Lions = 24
The number of points scored by the Tigers = 7

A candy company claims that 20% of the candies in its bags are colored green. Steve buys 30 bags of 30 candies, randomly selects one candy from each, and counts the number of green candies. If there are 5, 6, or 7 green candies, Steve will conclude that the company’s claim is correct. What is the probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim? Use a TI-83, TI-83 plus, or TI-84 calculator to find the probability.
Answer:
The probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim is 0.50502.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X denote the number of green candies.
The probability of green candies is, p = 0.20.
Steve buys 30 bags of 30 candies, randomly selects one candy from each, and counts the number of green candies.
So, n = 30 candies are randomly selected.
All the candies are independent of each other.
The random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameter n = 30 and p = 0.20.
It is provided that if there are 5, 6, or 7 green candies, Steve will conclude that the company’s claim is correct.
Compute the probability of 5, 6 and 7 green candies as follows:
[tex]P(X=5)={30\choose 5}(0.20)^{5}(1-0.20)^{30-5}=0.17228\\\\P(X=6)={30\choose 6}(0.20)^{6}(1-0.20)^{30-6}=0.17946\\\\P(X=7)={30\choose 7}(0.20)^{7}(1-0.20)^{30-7}=0.15328[/tex]
Then the probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim is:
P (Accepting the claim) = P (X = 5) + P (X = 6) + P (X = 7)
= 0.17228 + 0.17946 + 0.15328
= 0.50502
Thus, the probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim is 0.50502.
