A CD manufacturer wanted to determine which of two different cover designs for a newly released CD will generate more sales. The manufacturer chose 70 stores to sell the CD. Thirty-five of these stores were randomly assigned to sell CDs with one of the cover designs and the other 35 were assigned to sell the CDs with the other cover design. The manufacturer recorded the number of CDs sold at each of the stores and found a significant difference between the mean number of CDs sold for the two cover designs. Which of the following gives the conclusion that should be made based on the results and provides the best explanation for the conclusion?
A. It is NOT reasonable to conclude that the difference in sales was caused by the different cover designs because this was not an experiment.
B. It is NOT reasonable to conclude that the difference in sales was caused the different cover designs because there was no control group for comparison.
C. It is NOT reasonable to conclude that the difference in sales was caused the different cover designs because the 70 stores were not randomly chosen.
D. It is reasonable to conclude that the difference in sales was caused by the different cover designs because the cover designs were randomly assigned to stores.
E. It is reasonable to conclude that the difference in sales was caused by the different cover designs because the sample size was large.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The statement that gives the best conclusion that should be made based on the results and provides the best explanation for the conclusion is option D;

D. It is reasonable to conclude that the difference in sales was caused by the different cover designs because the cover designs were randomly assigned to stores

Step-by-step explanation:

The data given in the question are presented as follows;

The particulars the CD manufacturer wants to determine = The CD cover design that will generate more sales

The mode of selection of the stores for the test = Random selection

The number of stores in each group of stores, n = 35 stores

The number of sets of stores tested = 2 sets of stores

Let [tex]\overline x_1[/tex] represent the mean number CDs sold at one set of stores and [tex]\overline x_2[/tex] represent the mean number CDs sold at the other set of stores

The null hypothesis, H₀; [tex]\overline x_1[/tex] = [tex]\overline x_2[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis, H₀; [tex]\overline x_1[/tex] ≠ [tex]\overline x_2[/tex]

Given that the statistical analysis shows that the difference in mean between the two sets of randomly selected stores is significant, we therefore should reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis that there is a significant difference in CD sale attributable to the difference in cover design as the CDs having on of two cover design where assigned randomly to the stores.

The members of the soccer team will be selling tickets to the silent auction. A ticket to the silent auction includes chances to win prizes and dinner. The ticket cost is set so that 45 tickets will pay for the cost of the prizes and food.

Build a function that can be used to find the total profit, f(x), the soccer team earns by selling x tickets. Show your work to build this function.

Answers

Answer:69

Step-by-step explanation:

A) $16

B) p(x) = 16x -800

C) 69 ticketsn:

A) The total of expenses is ...

$280 +100 +20 +400 = $800

If this is covered by 50 tickets, then a ticket must provide revenue of ...

$800/50 = $16

The cost per ticket is $16.

__

B) The profit is the difference between revenue and expenses. The revenue from sale of x tickets will be 16x. The expenses are fixed at 800, so the profit is ...

p(x) = 16x -800

__

C) We can find the number of tickets to sell (x) in order for profit to be at least $300 by solving the inequality ...

p(x) ≥ 300

16x -800 ≥ 300 . . . . . use the expression for p(x)

16x ≥ 1100 . . . . . . . . . add 800

x ≥ 68.75 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 16 . . . (the least satisfactory integer is 69)

In order to raise at least $300, the number of tickets sold must be at least 69.

N January, the price of a dozen eggs at a grocery store was $0.89. By June, the price had increased to $0.99. What was the percent of increase in the price, to the nearest tenth of a percent?

Answers

11.236% increase
hope this helped

The initial price of eggs is $0.89 which is then increased to $0.99, so the percentage increase in the price is 11.23%.

What is Percentage?

The Latin term "per centum," which signifies "by the hundredth," was the source of the English word "percentage." Segments with a denominator of 100 are considered percentages. In other terms, it is a relationship where the worth of the entire is always considered to be 100.

As per the given data in the question,

The price of dozen eggs = $0.89

The price increase by June = $0.99

The percentage increase in the price,

% increase = (0.99 - 0.89)/0.89 × 100

% increase = 11.2%

Therefore, the increase is 11.2%.

(The paper this is one is due tmr. Help)

Answers

Answer:

4.49 more yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

If 8 yards of fabric cost $35.60

then let  x yards cost $20

cross multiply

35.60*x= 20*8

35.60*x= 160

x= 160/35.60

x= $4.49

Hence the $20 will purchase 4.49 more yards

Answer:

The surface area of the shape is 292 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the surface area of the cuboidal shape

Mathematically, the area of a cuboid can be calculated using the formula;

A = 2(lb + lh + bh)

where l is the length which is 7 inches

b is the breadth which is 6 cm

h is the height which is 8 cm

Substituting these values, we have

A = 2((8 * 6) + (7 * 6) + (8 * 7))

A = 2(56 + 42 + 48)

A = 2 * 146

A = 292 in^2
