the campus bookshop sells exercise books and textbooks, where, the total cost of 10 exercise books and 2 textbooks is $1400.00. One also finds the total cost of 3 textbooks and 30 exercise books is $3000. Then determine the price of 1 exercise book?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The price of 1 exercise book is $122.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the price of one exercise book.

y is the price of one textbook.

Total cost of 10 exercise books and 2 textbooks is $1400.00.

This means that:

[tex]10x + 2y = 1400[/tex]

Since we want x:

[tex]2y = 1400 - 10x[/tex]

[tex]y = 700 - 5x[/tex]

One also finds the total cost of 3 textbooks and 30 exercise books is $3000.

This means that:

[tex]3x + 30y = 3000[/tex]

Since [tex]y = 700 - 5x[/tex]

[tex]3x + 30(700 - 5x) = 3000[/tex]

[tex]3x + 21000 - 150x = 3000[/tex]

[tex]147x = 18000[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{18000}{147}[/tex]

[tex]x = 122.45[/tex]

The price of 1 exercise book is $122.45.

Suppose that you are interested in determining the average height of a person in a large city. You begin by collecting the heights of a random sample of 196 people from the city. The average height of your sample is 68 inches, while the standard deviation of the heights in your sample is 7 inches. The standard error of your estimate of the average height in the city is

Answers

Answer:

The standard error of your estimate of the average height in the city is 0.5 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

You begin by collecting the heights of a random sample of 196 people from the city.

This means that [tex]n = 196[/tex]

The standard deviation of the heights in your sample is 7 inches.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 7[/tex]

The standard error of your estimate of the average height in the city is

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{7}{\sqrt{196}} = 0.5[/tex]

The standard error of your estimate of the average height in the city is 0.5 inches.

y = 64/3

x = -119/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3х + 6у = 9 => 5*3x+5*6у = 9*5 => 15x+30у=45 (1)

5х + 7y = -49 => 3*5x + 3*7y = -49*3 => 15x+21y=-147 (2)

The original price of a set lunch was 30 dollars. It is now sold at a 20%
discount. There is an extra discount of 10% for students. How much
should a student pay to order a set lunch?

Answers

Find out the total discount percentage that students receive.

20% + 10% = 30%

30/100 x 30 = 9 dollars

30 - 9 = 21 dollars (Final answer)
20% of $30 = $6
30 - 6 = $24
10% of $24 = $2.40
24 - 2.40 = $21.60 cost of student lunch

You have to do each percent separate to get the cost.
If you just take 30% off from the original cost of $30 it will be the wrong answer.

The attached table

Required

The type of variation

First, we check for direct variation using:

[tex]k = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

Pick corresponding points on the table

[tex](x,y) = (-2,-5)[/tex]

So:

[tex]k = \frac{-5}{-2} = 2.5[/tex]

[tex](x,y) = (4,10)[/tex]

So:

[tex]k = \frac{10}{4} = 2.5[/tex]

[tex](x,y) = (6,15)[/tex]

So:

[tex]k = \frac{15}{6} = 2.5[/tex]

Hence, the table shows direct variation with [tex]k = 2.5[/tex]
