A retiree invests $7,000 in a savings plan that pays 7% per year. What will the account balance be at
the end of the first year?

Answers

Answer:

$6510

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing that should come to mind is: What is 7% of $7000?

Well, if you don't know how to find a percent of something, this is the formula you use:

7000 x 0.07 = 490.

In the first year, they will receive 490 out of the 7000 they've invested.

7000 - 490 = 6510.

Therefore, the account balance at the end of the first year will be 6510.

The account balance at the end of first year will be equal to $6510.

What do you mean by percentage ?

Percentage is the relative value indicating one hundredth part of any quantity.

It is given that a retiree invests $7000 in a savings plan which pays 7% per year.  So , it meant that we need to calculate that what is the value 7% of $7000.

So , 7% of $7000 is :

= 7000 × [tex]\frac{7}{100}[/tex]

= $490

It is known that this amount is paid as per plan per year. So, to find out the account balance at the end of the first year , we need to subtract the invested amount to the amount per year at 7%.

So , the account balance at the end of first year will be :

= 7000 - 490

= $6510

Therefore , the account balance at the end of first year will be equal to $6510.

Median of the given set of price is $4500

What is median?

The median is the value separating the higher half from the lower half of a data sample, a population, or a probability distribution

Given set of data = $7000, $2000, $9000, $3000, $5000, $4000

Order the values from low to high

$2000, $3000, $4000, $5000, $7000, $9000

Find the middle term

Here number of terms = 6

It is even number  

Then find [tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{n}{2}+1[/tex] terms

[tex]\frac{n}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3[/tex]

[tex]\frac{n}{2}+1=3+1=4[/tex]

Median is the mean of the 3rd value and 4th value

Median =[tex]\frac{4000+5000}{2}=4500[/tex]

Hence, the median of the given set of price is $4500

A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 434 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 9 bag sample had a mean of 431 grams with a variance of 144. A level of significance of 0.01 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled

Answers

Answer:

No, there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 434 gram setting.

This means that the null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 434[/tex]

It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags.

This means that the alternate hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{a}: \mu < 434[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

434 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 434[/tex]

A 9 bag sample had a mean of 431 grams with a variance of 144.

This means that [tex]X = 431, n = 9, \sigma = \sqrt{144} = 12[/tex]

Value of the test-statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{431 - 434}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{9}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -0.75[/tex]

P-value of the test:

The pvalue of the test is the pvalue of z = -0.75, which is 0.2266

0.2266 > 0.01, which means that there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled.

in the month of July 3/8 of the shoes that were sold at the Houston of style footwear were sandals and 1/16 were clogs. what fraction of the shoes where either sandals or clogs?​

Answers

Answer:

7/16 of the shoes were either sandals or clogs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find a CD, which is 16.

Because we multiplied the denominator, we multiply the numerator as well.

3/8 becomes 6/16.

Now, because both of the denominators are the same, we are free to add both of the fractions together.

6/16 + 1/16 = 7/16.

Because this fraction isn't reducible, the answer will be 7/16.

(d) State any two(2) properties of a semiconductor material.​

Answers

Answer:

Semiconductors are somewhere in-between conductors and insulators. This means that they are specific when it comes to conducting electricity meaning that their conduction of electricity varies based on their condition at the time.

For instance, they can conduct electricity when heated.

Properties:

    1. Perfect insulator at Absolute Zero.

As mentioned above, semi conductors are better at conducting electricity when they are heated. At Absolute zero - the lowest temperature possible -  therefore, these materials would conduct absolutely no electricity thereby making them perfect insulators.

   2. More resistance than Conductors but less than Insulators

As mentioned above, they have properties in-between those of insulators and conductors. One of those is their resistance. They can resist more than conductors but less than insulators.
