In a recent survey of 288 people, 72 said that their favorite color of car was white. What percent of the people surveyed liked white cars?

Answers

Answer 1
if you translate this problem literally, it is saying, “72 is what percent of 288?”. And the equational translation of that is 72 = (x/100) • 288
[ “is” means equal to (=) // “what” means x or another variable // “percent” means divided by 100” // “of” means multiplication. ]
Then you solve that equation.
(you can check it by googling what is 25% of 288. )
In A Recent Survey Of 288 People, 72 Said That Their Favorite Color Of Car Was White. What Percent Of
Answer 2

Based on the number of people who were surveyed in total and the number of people who had their favorite car as white, the percentage is 25%.

There were 288 people surveyed. 72 people preferred a white car color out of all these. The percent is:

= Number if people who prefer white / Number of people surveyed x 100%

Solving gives:

= 72 / 288 x 100%

= 0.25 x 100%

= 25%

In conclusion, the percent of people who liked white cars was 25%.

For every left-handed person, there are about 4-right handed people. If there are 30 students in a class, predict the number of students who are right-handed.

Answers

Answer:

There are 24 right handed students

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a ratio question so it would be represented as 1:4.

First you would do 1 + 4 which is 5.

Then do 30 ÷ 5 which is 6.

Finally multiply 6 by 4 and 1.

So 6 × 4 × 1 is 24.

So there are 24 students who are right handed.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is a. Amy’s balance would be greater than Hank’s in the end.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Amy invested $500 per month in a 401k that earned 6% annual return for 40 years. Hank invested $1,000 per month in a 401k that also earned 6% annual return, but for 20 years. Which of the following would be true?

a. Amy’s balance would be greater than Hank’s in the end.

b. Amy’s balance is $5,142 and Hank’s balance is $3,207.

c. Hank’s balance would be greater than Amy’s in the end.

d. The investment and balance would be the same.

e. None of these are true

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

The balance in the end for each can be determined using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:

FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (1)

Where;

For Amy:

FV = Future value or balance in the end = ?

M = Monthly investment = $500

r = Monthly interest rate = 6% / 12 = 0.06 / 12 = 0.005

n = number of months the investment will be made = 40 years * 12 months = 480

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

FV = $500 * (((1 + 0.005)^480 - 1) / 0.005)

FV = $500 * 1,991.49

FV = $995,745.37

Therefore, Amy’s balance would be $995,745.37 in the end.

For Hank:

FV = Future value or balance in the end = ?

M = Monthly investment = $1,000

r = Monthly interest rate = 6% / 12 = 0.06 / 12 = 0.005

n = number of months the investment will be made = 20 years * 12 months = 240

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

FV = $1,000 * (((1 + 0.005)^240 - 1) / 0.005)

FV = $1,000 * 462.04

FV = $462,040.90

Therefore, Hank’s balance would be $462,040.90 in the end.

Conclusion

Since Amy’s balance of $995,745.37 is greater than Hank’s balance $462,040.90, it therefore implies that the correct option is a. Amy’s balance would be greater than Hank’s in the end.

Use Newton's method to approximate the given number correct to eight decimal places. 4√73

Answers

Answer:34.17601498.

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton's method of approximation is used to approximate values.

The value of [tex]\mathbf{4\sqrt{73}}[/tex] is 34.17601498

Let the number be x.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x = 4\sqrt{73}}[/tex]

Square both sides

[tex]\mathbf{x^2 = 1168}[/tex]

Subtract 1168 from both sides

[tex]\mathbf{x^2 - 1168 = 0}[/tex]

Express as a function

[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = x^2 - 1168 }[/tex]

Set x1 to 73/2.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x_1 = \frac{73}{2} = 36.5}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]\mathbf{x_{n+1} = x_n- \frac{x_n^2-1168}{2x_n}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x_{1+1} = x_1- \frac{x_1^2-1168}{2x_1}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{2} = x_1- \frac{x_1^2-1168}{2x_1}}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\mathbf{x_{2} = 36.5- \frac{36.5^2-1168}{2 \times 36.5}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{2} = 34.25}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{3} = x_2- \frac{x_2^2-1168}{2x_2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{3} = 34.25- \frac{34.25^2-1168}{2 \times 34.25}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{3} = 34.1760948905}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{4} = x_3- \frac{x_3^2-1168}{2x_3}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{4} = 34.1760948905- \frac{34.1760948905^2-1168}{2\times 34.1760948905}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{4} = 34.1760149814}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{5} = x_4- \frac{x_4^2-1168}{2x_4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{5} = 34.1760149814- \frac{34.1760149814^2-1168}{2\times 34.1760149814}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{5} = 34.1760149813}[/tex]

The values of x4 and x5 are the same up till the 8th decimal place.

Hence, the value of [tex]\mathbf{4\sqrt{73}}[/tex] is 34.17601498

Computer use.
A random sample of 197 12th-grade students from across the United States was surveyed, and it was observed that these students spent an average of 23.5 hours on the computer per week, with a standard deviation of 8.7 hours. If we plan to use these data to construct a 99% confident interval, the margin of error will be approximately.

(a.) 0.07
(b.) 0.62
(c.) 1.6
(d.) 8.7

Answers

Answer:

The margin of error will be approximately =

(c.) 1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample of 12th-grade students = 197

Average hours spent on computer per week = 23.5 hours

Total hours spent = 4,625 (197 * 23.5) hours

Standard deviation = 8.7 hours

Confidence interval = 99%

Square root of sample size = [tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex] = 14.04

Standard deviation/square root of sample size = 8.7/14.04 = 0.6196

Z value at 99% confidence = 2.58

Margin of error = 0.6196 * 2.58

= 1.59857

= 1.6

This question can be determined by the  concept of standard deviation. The margin of 1.6 error will be approximately.

 

Given:

Random sample of 12th-grade students = 197

Average hours spent on computer per week = 23.5 hours

Therefore,

Total hours spent by 12th grade students  = [tex]\bold{(197 \times23.5=4629.5)hours}[/tex]  

Standard deviation = 8.7 hours (Given)

Confidence Interval =99% (Given)

 

Square root of  random sample size =  = 14.04

[tex]\bold{\dfrac{Standard\: deviation}{Square\: root\: of\: sample\: size} =\dfrac{8.7}{14.04 } = 0.6196}[/tex]

 

Therefore,

Z value at 99% confidence = 2.58

Margin of error = [tex]0.6196 \times2.58[/tex]  

                          = 1.59857 error

                          = 1.6 error

Thus, the correct option is (c) 1.6 error.

Graph a line with a slope of 4 that contains the point (3,0).

Answers

Hi there!

Recall that slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

Where m = slope

In this instance, we are given a slope of 4, therefore:

y = 4x + b

Substitute in the x and y coordinates of the point given:

0 = 4(3) + b

0 = 12 + b

Subtract 12 from both sides:

-12 = b

Therefore, the equation would be:

y = 4x - 12

Graph the equation by finding x and y values or using a calculator:

x = 0, y = 4(0) - 12 = 12            (0, 12)  

x = 1, y = 4(1) - 12 = -8               (1, -8)

x = 2, y = 4(2) - 12 = -4             (2, -4)

x = 3, y = 4(3) - 12 = 0              (3, 0)

And so forth:

To graph a line passing through a point (3, 0) and slope 4, we will find the equation of the line first.

Since, equation of a line passing through a point (h, k) and slope 'm' is given by,

y - k = m(x - h)

Therefore, equation of a line passing through (3, 0) and slope 4 will be,

y - 0 = 4(x - 3)

y = 4x - 12

For y-intercept put x = 0 in the equation,

y = 4(0) - 12

y = -12

For x-intercept put y = 0 in the equation,

0 = 4x - 12

x = 3

Therefore, line will intersect x-axis at (3, 0) and y-axis at (0, -12).

              By joining these points we can find the graph of the line passing through (3, 0) and having slope = 4.
