A store has clearance items that have been marked down by 55%. They are having a sale advertising an additional 40% off Clarence items what percentage of the original price do you end up paying?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
27%
Step-by-step explanation:
The price multiplier for the first discount is (1 -55%) = 0.45.
The price multiplier for the second discount is (1 -40%) = 0.60.
Then the price multiplier for the two discounts together is ...
(0.45)(0.60) = 0.27
You end up paying 27% of the original price.
A psychologist suspects that heroin addicts have a different assessment of self-worth than others in the general population. On a test designed to measure self-worth, the mean for the general population is 48.6. The psychologist obtains a random sample of 40 test scores produced by heroin addicts and found the sample mean and the sample standard deviations are 45.5 and 8.5, respectively. Do these data indicate the self-worth of heroin addicts is less than that of the general population?
Answer:
The p-value of the test if 0.0131, which is less than the standard significance level of 0.05, meaning that these data indicates that the self-worth of heroin addicts is less than that of the general population.
Step-by-step explanation:
On a test designed to measure self-worth, the mean for the general population is 48.6.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is of 48.6, that is:
[tex]H_0: \mu = 48.6[/tex]
A psychologist suspects that heroin addicts have a different assessment of self-worth than others in the general population. Test if it is lower.
At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the mean is lower, that is:
[tex]H_1: \mu < 48.6[/tex]
The test statistic is:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
48.6 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that [tex]\mu = 48.6[/tex]
The psychologist obtains a random sample of 40 test scores produced by heroin addicts and found the sample mean and the sample standard deviations are 45.5 and 8.5, respectively.
This means that [tex]n = 40, X = 45.5, s = 8.5[/tex]
Value of the test statistic:
[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{45.5 - 48.6}{\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{40}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = -2.31[/tex]
P-value of the test:
The p-value of the test is a one-tailed test(mean lower than a value), with t = -2.31 and 40 - 1 = 39 df.
Using a t-distribution calculator, this p-value is of 0.0131.
The p-value of the test if 0.0131, which is less than the standard significance level of 0.05, meaning that these data indicates that the self-worth of heroin addicts is less than that of the general population.
Blood pressure values are often reported to the nearest 5 mmhg (100, 105, 110, etc.). the actual blood pressure values for nine randomly selected individuals are given below.
108.6 117.4 128.4 120.0 103.7 112.0 98.3 121.5 123.2
Required:
a. What is the median of the reported blood pressure values?
b. Suppose the blood pressure of the second individual is 117.7 rather than 117.4 (a small change in a single value). What is the new median of the reported values?
c. What does this say about the sensitivity of the median to rounding or grouping in the data?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Arranging the data in the ascending order:
108.6 98.3 103.7 112 117.4 120 121.5 123.2 128.4
The median is the middle value of the data set:
a)
Hence,
median = 117.4
b)
When the value of blood pressure is 117.7 instead of 117.4 then the median will be:
Median = 117.7
c)
This indicates that the median of a well sorted set of data is depends upon the middle value of the data set.
Identify the first 4 terms in the arithmetic sequence given by the explicit formula ƒ(n) = 8 + 3(n – 1).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(n) = 8 + 3(n) - 3
f(n) = 5 + 3n
f(1) = 5 + 3(1)
f(1) = 8
f(2) = 5 + 3(2)
f(2) = 5 + 6
f(2) = 11
f(3) = 5 + 3*3
f(3) = 14
f(4) = 5 + 3*4
f(4) = 17

Plan production for the next year. The demand forecast is: spring, 20,600; summer, 9,400; fall, 15,400; winter, 18,400. At the beginning of spring, you have 69 workers and 1,030 units in inventory. The union contract specifies that you may lay off workers only once a year, at the beginning of summer. Also, you may hire new workers only at the end of summer to begin regular work in the fall. The number of workers laid off at the beginning of summer and the number hired at the end of summer should result in planned production levels for summer and fall that equal the demand forecasts for summer and fall, respectively. If demand exceeds supply, use overtime in spring only, which means that backorders could occur in winter. You are given these costs: hiring, $130 per new worker; layoff, $260 per worker laid off; holding, $21 per unit-quarter; backorder cost, $9 per unit; regular time labor, $11 per hour; overtime, $17 per hour. Productivity is 0.5 unit per worker hour, eight hours per day, 50 days per quarter.
Find the total cost of this plan. Note: Hiring expense occurs at beginning of Fall. (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "O" wherever required.)

Find all the zeros of f(x).
f(x) = 2x3 + 7x2 - 28x + 12
Arrange your answers from smallest to largest. If
there is a double root, list it twice.
Plz help!
Answer:
The zeroes are -6, 1/2 and 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x3 + 7x2 - 28x + 12 = 0
From the first and last coefficient 2 and 12, one guess for a zero is x = 2.
So substituting x = 2:
f(2) = 16+ 28 - 56 + 12 = 0
So x = 2 is a zero and x - 2 is a factor of f(x)
Performing long division:
x - 2)2x3 + 7x2 - 28x + 12( 2x2 + 11x - 6 <------- Quotient
2x3 - 4x2
11x2 - 28x
11x2 - 22x
- 6x + 12
-6x + 12
.............
Now we solve
2x2 + 11x - 6 = 0
(2x - 1)(x + 6) = 0
2x - 1 = 0 or x + 6 = 0, so:
x = 1/2, x = -6.
Answer: -6, 1/2, 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
{(x) = 2x3 + 7x2 - 28x + 12 = 0
From the first and last coefficient 2 and 12, one
guess for a zero is x=2.
So substituting x=2:
{(2) = 16+ 28 - 56 + 12 = 0
So x = 2 is a zero and x - 2 is a factor of f(x)
Performing long division:
X - 2)2x3 + 7x2 - 28x + 12(2x2 + 11x - 6 <

1. Define the following: Odds ratio Relative risk 2. Describe how to calculate the Odds ratio and provde the formula. 3. Describe how to calculate the Relative Risk and provide the formula.
Answer and Explanation:
Odds ratio is the odds that an outcome would happen given a level of exposure in comparison to the occurrence of that outcome without exposure. Odds ratio is calculated by dividing odds of event occurring with exposure(the first group) by odds of event(usually disease) occurring without exposure. Odds is different from probability(denoted p/1-p). While probability is the number of favorable events divided by total number of events, odds is number of favorable events/number of unfavorable events.
Relative risk, also measuring relationship between exposure and outcome, is the ratio of the probability that an outcome would occur without exposure and probability that an outcome would occur with exposure.

You have a dog-walking business. You charge $12 per hour. Let's define n as the amount you earn and h as the number of
hours you work. You want to make $30, so you figure you need to work 2.5 hours.
Sort the solution methods by whether they are correct or incorrect methods to solve the problem.
Answer:
[tex]n = 12h[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]r = 12/hr[/tex] --- rate
[tex]h \to hours[/tex]
[tex]n \to amount[/tex]
Required
Determine which solution is correct or incorrect
The solutions are not given. So, I will provide a general explanation
The amount (n) is calculated as:
[tex]n = r * h[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]n = 12 * h[/tex]
[tex]n = 12h[/tex]
The above is the general equation to solve for the amount, given h hours
When h = 2.5, we have:
[tex]n = 12*2.5[/tex]
[tex]n = 30[/tex]

for every 5 people who bought $9.75 tickets to the football game, 3 people bought $14.50 tickets. If each of 35 people bought a $9.75 ticket, how many people bought the more expensive ticket?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
The number who bought expensive tickets is 3/5 of the number who bought cheap tickets.
(3/5)(35) = 21
21 people bought the more expensive ticket.
Answer:
21 people
Step-by-step explanation:
$9.75 $14.50
5 people to 3 people
35 people to ? people
consider the proportions: 5/3 = 35/?
we need the equivalent fraction of 5/3 that has 35 on the denominator
so 5/3 = (5/3)(7/7) because 7/7 =1, and 5*3 =35
5/3 = 5*7/3*7 = 35/21

Sam's monthly bills are normally distributed with mean 2700 and standard deviation 230.9. He receives two paychecks of $1500 each in a month, post taxes and withholdings. What is the probability that his expenses will exceed his income in the following month?Ð) 10%. B) 16%.C) 21%.D) 29%.E) 37%.
Answer:
A) 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Sam's monthly bills are normally distributed with mean 2700 and standard deviation 230.9.
This means that [tex]\mu = 2700, \sigma = 230.9[/tex]
What is the probability that his expenses will exceed his income in the following month?
Expenses above 2*1500 = $3000, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 3000.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{3000 - 2700}{230.9}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.3[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.3[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9032.
1 - 0.9032 = 0.0968 that is, close to 10%, and thus the correct answer is given by option A.

Answer:
(a) 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Each inch is 2.54 cm, so 5.08 cm is ...
x / (5.08 cm) = (1 in) / (2.54 cm)
x = (1 in)(5.08/2.54) = (1 in)(2)
x = 2 in
5.08 cm equals 2 inches.
can you please answer this????

Step-by-step explanation:
I'm taking all bases as b so not typing it
2/3 log 125 = log (125^2/3) = log 25
1/2 log 9 = log (9^1/2) = log 3
So we can rewrite the equation as,
log x = log 25 + log 3 - log 15
or, log x = log (25×3) - log 15
or, log x = log 75 - log 15
or, log x = log (75/15)
or, log x = log 5
or, x = 5

Suppose that the functions and g are defined for all real numbers x as follows.
f(x)=x+6
g(x) = 2x + 6
Write the expressions for (f-g)(x) and (fg)(x) and evaluate (f+g)(1).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given functions are,
f(x) = x + 6
g(x) = 2x + 6
(f - g)(x) = (x + 6) - (2x + 6)
= -x
(f . g)(x) = f(x) × g(x)
= (x + 6)(2x + 6)
= 2x² + 6x + 12x + 36
= 2x² + 18x + 36
(f + g)(x) = (x + 6) + (2x + 6)
= 3x + 12
(f + g)(1) = 3(1) + 12
= 15

The triangles are congruent. Find the length of each hypotenuse.
A. 3
B. 5
C 17
Answer:
Hypothenus = 22
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, we were told that the triangles are congruent (i.e same size). Thus,
AC = EF
BC = DE
To obtain the length of each Hypothenus, we shall determine the value of y and x. This can be obtained as follow:
For y:
AC = y + 3
EF = 2y + 1
AC = EF
y + 3 = 2y + 1
Collect like terms
3 – 1 = 2y – y
2 = y
y = 2
For x:
BC = 5x + 7
DE = 6x + 2y
y = 2
DE = 6x + 2(2)
DE = 6x + 4
BC = DE
5x + 7 = 6x + 4
Collect like terms
7 – 4 = 6x – 5x
3 = x
x = 3
Finally, we shall determine the length of each Hypothenus. This can be obtained as follow:
Hypothenus = BC
Hypothenus = 5x + 7
x = 3
Hypothenus = 5x + 7
Hypothenus = 5(3) + 7
Hypothenus = 15 + 7
Hypothenus = 22
OR
Hypothenus = DE
DE = 6x + 2y
y = 2
x = 3
Hypothenus = 6(3) + 2(2)
Hypothenus = 18 + 4
Hypothenus = 22
