There are 60 new houses being built in a neighborhood. Last month, 1/4 of them were sold. This month, 1/5 of the remaining houses were sold. How many houses are left to be sold.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of new houses  = 60

Number of houses sold last month = (1/4) of 60

                                                          [tex]= \frac{1}{4}*60[/tex]

                                                          = 15

Remaining houses  = 60 - 15 = 45

Number of houses sold this month = (1/5) of 45

                                                          [tex]=\frac{1}{5}*45\\\\= 9[/tex]

Number of houses that are left = 45 - 9 = 36

The time taken by artisans A. B and C to do an
embroidery job is 15 hours, 18 hours, and 15 hours.
respectively. A, B, and C begin working together but
after 3 hours B is put on another job. How long will A
and C take to finish the embroidery job?​

Answers

Answer:

3 hours 15mins

Step-by-step explanation:

in 1 hours time, A will complete 1/15 of the job, B will complete 1/18 and C 1/15.

After 3 hours, A completed 3/15 (aka 1/5) of the job, B 3/18 (aka 1/6) and C being the same as A.

total job done after 3 hrs is 1/5 + 1/6 + 1/5 which is 17/30 of the job

left: 13/30

in 1 hr, A and C will do 2/15 of the job (4/30)

therefore, no. of hours needed: 13/4 hours = 3.25 hours (3 hours 15mins)

In a clinical trial of oxycodone, 16 subjects experience headaches among the 227 subjects treated with oxycodone. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of treated subjects who experience headaches. Provide both probabilistic and practical interpretations. (Hint: this is proportion problem).

Answers

Answer:

95% Confidence Interval = (0.037, 0.104)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Confidence Interval if a proportion is:

p ± z × √p(1 - p)/n

z = z score of a 95% confidence interval = 1.96

p = proportion = x/n

x = 16, n = 227

p = 16/227

p = 0.0704845815

≈ 0.0705

Confidence Interval

= 0.0705 ± 1.96 × √0.0705(1 - 0.0705)/227

= 0.0705 ± 1.96 × √0.0002886773

= 0.0705 ± 0.0333013921

Confidence Interval

= 0.0705 - 0.0333013921

= 0.0371986079

≈ 0.037

= 0.0705 + 0.0333013921

= 0.1038013921

≈ 0.104

Hence, 95% Confidence Interval = (0.037, 0.104)

The population of a certain town is growing at a constant rate. Suppose the population is 1900 initially, and after 4 years the population is 2212. Which of these expresses the rate at which the population is increasing?

Answers

Answer:

The rate of change relates the change in population to the change in time.  The population increased by 2212−1900=312 people over the four-years.  To find the rate of change, divide the change in the number of people by the number of years.

2212−19004=3124

3124/4 =78

So the population increased by 78 people per year.

Because we are told that the population increased, we would expect the slope to be positive.  This positive slope we calculated is therefore reasonable.

Sara took 3 hours to hike 12 miles if, on the first day of camp, Sara hiked 20 miles in 5 hours and the rate is 4 miles per hour.

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:

On the first day of camp, Sara hiked 20 miles in 5 hours.

The rate = 20/5 = 4 miles per hour

Let x be the time taken by Sara to hike 12 miles

As its rate of speed of Sara is 4 miles per hour

x = 12/4

The arithmetic operation can be defined as the operation in which we do the addition of numbers, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

x = 3 hours

Thus, Sara took 3 hours to hike 12 miles if, on the first day of camp, Sara hiked 20 miles in 5 hours and the rate is 4 miles per hour.

Suppose 52R% of the population has a college degree. If a random sample of size 808808 is selected, what is the probability that the proportion of persons with a college degree will be less than 54T%

Answers

Answer:

The probability is  [tex]P( p < 435.82 ) = 0.54094[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population proportion is  p =  54% = 0.54

    The sample size is  n  =  808

Generally the distribution of the population with college degree follows a binomial distribution  

i.e  

         [tex]X  \~ \ \ \  B(n , p)[/tex]

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

       [tex]\mu = n * p[/tex]

=>    [tex]\mu = 808 * 0.52[/tex]

=>    [tex]\mu = 420.16[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

        [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{np(1- p )}[/tex]

=>      [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{808 * 0.52(1- 0.52 )}[/tex]    

=>      [tex]\sigma = 14.2[/tex]

Generally 54% of the population proportion is

         [tex]\^ p = 0.54 * 808[/tex]

=>     [tex]\^ p = 436.32[/tex]

Generally by normal approximation of the binomial distribution the probability that the proportion of persons with a college degree will be less than 54% is mathematically evaluated as

      [tex]P(p < \^ p ) = P(\frac{p - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{\^ p - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]

[tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma }  =  Z (The  \ standardized \  value\  of  \ X )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(p < 436.32 ) = P( Z < \frac{436.32 - 420.16 }{14.20 } )[/tex]

applying continuity correction

      [tex]P(p < (436.32-0.5) ) = P( Z < \frac{(436.32-0.5) - 420.16 }{14.20 } )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(p < (435.82 ) = P( Z < \frac{435.82 - 420.16 }{14.20 } )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(p < (435.82 ) = P( Z < 0.1028 )[/tex]

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to 0.1028  is

   [tex]P( Z < 0.1028 ) = 0.54094[/tex]

=> [tex]P( p < 435.82 ) = 0.54094[/tex]

Answer:

1. Rational Number

2. Irrational Number

3. Terminating Decimal

4. Repeating Decimal

Step-by-step explanation:

A Rational Number can be written as a ratio of two integers. For example, as a simple fraction. That leaves us for the answer to the second one as irrational. To terminate means to end, so a terminating decimal is a decimal that does not go on forever. Whereas, a repeating decimal continues repeating forever (or indefinitely).

Recidivism occurs when a person continues to commit criminal behavior even after having been punished. A prison official wants to estimate the proportion of cases of recidivism.

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)  [0.2574 , 0.2626]

Step-by-step explanation:

Of 250 convicts, there are 65 cases of recidivism.

- Construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of cases of recidivism.

This calls for first finding the proportion of cases of recidivism. This will be 65/250  = 0.26

You are 100% confident that the proportion of cases of recidivism is 0.26

You will be 99% confident that the recidivism cases are between:

99% of 0.26  = 0.2574

1% of 0.26  = 0.0026

[0.26 - 0.0026] , [0.26 + 0.0026]  = [0.2574 , 0.2626]

This should be OPTION C, as that option is missing in the list of options.
