Answer:
A 95% confidence interval for the population average debt load of graduating students with a bachelor's degree is [$17,022.05, $20,577.94].
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a random sample of 28 students had an average debt load of $18,800. It is believed that the population standard deviation for student debt load is $4800. The α is set to 0.05.
Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population mean is given by;
P.Q. = [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample average debt load = $18,800
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard deviation = $4,800
n = sample of students = 28
[tex]\mu[/tex] = population average debt load
Here for constructing a 95% confidence interval we have used a One-sample z-test statistics because we know about population standard deviation.
So, 95% confidence interval for the population mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is ;
P(-1.96 < N(0,1) < 1.96) = 0.95 {As the critical value of z at 5% level of
significance are -1.96 & 1.96}
P(-1.96 < [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < 1.96) = 0.95
P( [tex]-1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]{\bar X-\mu}[/tex] < [tex]1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95
P( [tex]\bar X-1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\mu[/tex] < [tex]\bar X+1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95
95% confidence interval for [tex]\mu[/tex] = [ [tex]\bar X-1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\bar X+1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ]
= [ [tex]\$18,800-1.96 \times {\frac{\$4,800}{\sqrt{28} } }[/tex] , [tex]\$18,800+1.96 \times {\frac{\$4,800}{\sqrt{28} } }[/tex] ]
= [$17,022.05, $20,577.94]
Therefore, a 95% confidence interval for the population average debt load of graduating students with a bachelor's degree is [$17,022.05, $20,577.94].

1. A test-tube has a diameter of 3cm. How many turns would a piece of thread of length
90.42cm make round the test tube. (Taken= =).
(3marks)
So if we think of a test tube, it looks sort of like a cylinder. This means that its cross-section would be a circle. To find out how many turns a piece of thread would make around the test tube, we need to find the circumference of the test tube, then divide the length of the string by the circumference.
Step 1) Find the circumference
C = pi x diameter
C = 3.14 x 3
C = 9.42
Step 2) Divide the length of the string by the circumference
90.42 / 9.42 = 9.5987
The string would make approximately 9.60 turns around the test tube.

Answer:
x + 2y ≤ 12
x + 2y = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The teachers can not give more than 12 hours of homework so this is the answer. those are the 2 equations you can use. It under 12 hours or equal to 12 hours.
Answer:
Part A: x + 2y ≤ 12.
Part B: y = -1/2x + 6.
Part C: (0, 0).
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A: The total hours of homework have to be 12 hours, and it has to be either 12 hours or less. So, we have ≤ 12.
They take 1 math course with x hours of homework, so in total, that is 1 * x = x hours of math homework.
They take 2 science courses with y hours of homework, so in total, that is 2 * y = 2y hours of science homework.
The inequality would then be x + 2y ≤ 12.
Part B: x + 2y = 12
2y = -x + 12
y = -1/2x + 6
You can use the Math is Fun: Function Grapher and Calculator to find the graph of the line, shown below.
Part C: Since the inequality uses a ≤ symbol, we know that the shading will be underneath the line. An appropriate point below the line includes (0, 0). We will test out whether it works as a point included in the inequality.
x + 2y ≤ 12
0 + 2 * 0 ≤ 12
0 + 0 ≤ 12
0 ≤ 12
Since this is a true statement, (0, 0) holds true for the inequality.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
Micah's solution is wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
Micah solves a linear equation and concludes that x = 0 is the solution. His work is shown below.
(1 – 3x) = 4(– + 2)
0 = x
Which statement is true about Micah’s solution?
Micah’s solution is wrong.
There are no values of x that make the statement true.
Micah’s solution is correct, and the value of x that makes the statement true is 0.
Micah should have divided by .
Micah should have subtracted
Solution
First solve for the value of x
Given
(1 – 3x) = 4(– + 2)
It could mean; (1 – 3x) = 4(+ 2)
or
(1 – 3x) = 4(-2)
In the first option (1 – 3x) = 4(+ 2)
1 – 3x = 4(+ 2)
1-3x= 8
-3x=8-1
-3x=7
x= -7/3
In the second option
(1 – 3x) = 4(-2)
1-3x= -8
-3x= -8-1
-3x = -9
x= 3
x= 3 0r -7/3
The values of x that make the statement true are 3 and -7/3
Micah's solution of x=0 is wrong
Answer:
A. Micah’s solution is wrong. There are no values of x that make the statement true.

Does the problem involve permutations or combinations? Do not solve. From 8 names on a ballot, a committee of 5 will be elected to attend a political national convention. How many different committees are possible?
Answer: Combination
There are 56 committees possible
============================================
Explanation:
The reason why we know we'll use a combination (instead of a permutation) is because order does not matter. There are no ranking positions on a committee. No one person has a special job compared to the other. The ordering of a committee doesn't matter. All that matters is the entire group itself. For instance, if we had people A,B,C then the committee ABC is the same as CBA and BAC. We would have to introduce a different person, say person D, to get a new committee group.
We have n = 8 people overall to choose from and r = 5 slots to fill. Use the combination formula to get
[tex]_n C _r = \frac{n!}{r!*(n-r)!}\\\\_8 C _5 = \frac{8!}{5!*(8-5)!}\\\\_8 C _5 = \frac{8!}{5!*3!}\\\\_8 C _5 = \frac{8*7*6*5!}{5!*3!}\\\\_8 C _5 = \frac{8*7*6}{3!}\\\\_8 C _5 = \frac{8*7*6}{3*2*1}\\\\_8 C _5 = \frac{56*6}{6}\\\\_8 C _5 = 56\\\\[/tex]
We can conclude there are 56 different committees possible.
a sector with a radius of 12cm has an area of 60pi cm what is the central angle in radians
Answer:
5/6π.
Step-by-step explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Radius (r) = 12 cm
Area (A) = 60π cm²
Centre angle in radian (∅) =...?
Since we are to look for the centre angle in radian, the area of the sector will be given by:
A = ½r²∅
Inputting the values of the area, A and radius, r, the centre angle, ∅ can be obtained as follow:
A = ½r²∅
60π = ½ × 12² × ∅
60π = ½ × 144 × ∅
60π = 72 × ∅
Divide both side by 72
∅ = 60π/72
∅ = 5/6π
Therefore, the centre angle measured in radian is 5/6π.
If a circle has a diameter with endpoints of (-3, 0) and (5, 4) then the equation of the circle is?
Answer:
(x - 1)² + (y - 2)² = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a circle in standard form is
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius
Given the endpoints, then the centre is at the midpoint
C = [ [tex]\frac{-3+5}{2}[/tex], [tex]\frac{0+4}{2}[/tex] ] = (1, 2 )
The radius is the distance from the centre to either of the 2 endpoints.
Use the distance formula to find r
r = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 2) and (x₂, y₂ )= (- 3, 0)
r = [tex]\sqrt{(-3-1)^2+(0-2)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{(-4)^2+(-2)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{16+4}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{20}[/tex]
Thus equation of circle is
(x - 1)² + (y - 2)² = ([tex]\sqrt{20}[/tex] )² , that is
(x - 1)² + (y - 2)² = 20

Answer:
The answer to your question is given below.
Step-by-step explanation:
To which of the above expression is a sum or difference of cube, or not a sum or difference of cube, we shall do the following simplification:
Note: The Cube root of a particular number is simply a multiplication of an identical number in three places.
64x³ – 216
64 has a cube root of 4 and 216 has a cube root of 6. Therefore, the above expression can be written as:
4³x³ – 6³
(4x)³ – 6³
64x³ – 216 = (4x)³ – 6³
Therefore, 64x³ – 216 can be expressed as a difference of cube.
8x^9 + 27
8 has a cube root of 2, x^9 has a cube root of x³ and 27 has a
cube root of 3. Therefore, the above expression can be written as:
2³(x³)³ + 3³
(2x³)³ + 3³
8x^9 + 27 = (2x³)³ + 3³
8x^9 + 27 can be expreessed as a sum of cube
x³ + 125
125 has a cube root of 5. Therefore, the above expression can be written as:
x³ + 5³
x³ + 125 = x³ + 5³
x³ + 125 can be expressed as a sum of cube
36x³ + 121
36 and 121 has no cube root. Therefore, the above expression is not a sum or difference of cube.
x^6 – 16
x^6 has a cube root of x² and 16 has no cube root. Therefore, the above expression is not a sum or difference of cube.

A life insurance company sells a $100,000 one year term life insurance policy to a 30-year old male for $475. The probability that the male survives the year is .999172. Find the expected value for the insurance company.
Answer:
The expected value for the insurance company is $392.20.
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected value of a random variable, X is:
[tex]E(X)=x\cdot P(X)[/tex]
It is provided that a life insurance company sells a $100,000 one year term life insurance policy to a 30-year old male for $475.
The probability that the male survives the year is, P(S) = 0.999172.
Then the probability that the male does not survives the year is:
P (S') = 1 - P (S)
= 1 - 0.999172
P (S') = 0.000828
The amount the company owes the male if he survives is, S = $475.
The amount the company owes the male if he does not survives is,
S' = $475 - $100,000 = -$99525.
Compute the expected value for the insurance company as follows:
[tex]E(\text{Insurance Company})=S\cdot P(S)+S'\cdot P(S')[/tex]
[tex]=(475\times 0.999172)+(-99525\times 0.000828)\\=474.6067-82.4067\\=392.20[/tex]
Thus, the expected value for the insurance company is $392.20.
PLEASE HELP! Manufacturers often alter different packages to save money and to grab customers attention. Explain using an example, how changes in the dimensions of common geometric shapes will affect the volume of the following shapes: prisms, cylinders, cones and spheres.
Answer:
An example of a prism could be a an amazon box to represent a rectangular prism. As the height, length, or width of the box increases, the volume increases allowing more items to fit within the box.
An example of a cone would be an ice cream cone. As the height or the radius of the cone increases, the more volume the cone can hold, meaning more ice cream for you.
An example of a cylinder could be a cup. As the height or the radius of the cup increases, the larger the volume. More drink for you.
An example of a sphere would be a soccer ball. As the radius increases, the volume of the ball increases. Hence, larger soccer balls have a bigger radius than smaller soccer balls. This allows for different varients of the ball to be created (i.e., youth, highschool, college, pro).
Note, the volume can also be decreased by simply shrinking the measurements instead of increasing them.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's simply look at the equations of each shape.
Volume of a prism = base * height
Volume of a cone = Pi * r^2 * (height/3)
Volume of a cylinder = Pi * r^2 * height
Volume of a sphere = (4/3) Pi r^3
Notice that the volumes of prisms, cones, and cylinders directly correlate to height. As height increases, the volume increases. The sphere is unique in that the height is 2 * radius; however, the volume is related to the cube of the radius. Consider if you expanded the radius of the sphere, the volume will increase.
Answer:
Increase or decrease the dimensions of objects. See below for an explanation!
Step-by-step explanation:
An amazon box, which is a rectangular prism, is an example of a prism. If you increase the height, length, or width of the box, you can fit more stuff inside.
A cup is an example of a cylinder; by increasing the height or radius of the cup, you can fit more of a drink inside.
An icecream cone is an example of a cone; if the height or radius were increased, you might fit more ice cream inside.
A soccer ball is an example of a sphere; increasing the radius makes it larger, and various sizes are available for different levels.
You may also shrink the dimensions for each of these objects to make them smaller.

An education researcher claims that 58% of college students work year-round. In a random sample of 400 college students, 232 say they work year-round. At alphaequals0.01, is there enough evidence to reject the researcher's claim? Complete parts (a) through (e) below.
Answer:
The proportion of college students who work year-round is 58%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The claim made by the education researcher is that 58% of college students work year-round.
A random sample of 400 college students, 232 say they work year-round.
To test the researcher's claim use a one-proportion z-test.
The hypothesis can be defined as follows:
H₀: The proportion of college students who work year-round is 58%, i.e. p = 0.58.
Hₐ: The proportion of college students who work year-round is 58%, i.e. p ≠ 0.58. C
Compute the sample proportion as follows:
[tex]\hat p=\frac{232}{400}=0.58[/tex]
Compute the test statistic value as follows:
[tex]z=\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}=\frac{0.58-0.58}{\sqrt{\frac{0.58(1-0.58)}{400}}}=0[/tex]
The test statistic value is 0.
Decision rule:
If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level then the null hypothesis will be rejected.
Compute the p-value for the two-tailed test as follows:
[tex]p-value=2\times P(z<0)=2\times 0.5=1[/tex]
*Use a z-table for the probability.
The p-value of the test is 1.
The p-value of the test is very large when compared to the significance level.
The null hypothesis will not be rejected.
Thus, it can be concluded that the proportion of college students who work year-round is 58%.

Subtract 57 from both sides.
[tex] d + 57 - 57 = 180 - 57 [/tex]
[tex] d = 123 [/tex]

Simplify each expression. 6mn3 -mn2 + 3mn3 +15mn2??
Answer:
9m(n)^3 +14m(n)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
6m(n)^3 - m(n)^2 + 3m(n)^3 + 15m(n)^2
=> 6m(n)^3 + 3m(n)^3 + 15m(n)^2 - m(n)^2
=> 9m(n)^3 +14m(n)^2
If you get a penny a day from your uncle and each day he doubles the amount he gave you on the previous day how much would he give you on the twentieth day
Answer: On the 20th day, he will give $5242.88
Step-by-step explanation: This is a geometric series with elements:
initial value ([tex]a_{0}[/tex]) = 0.01
ratio = 2
At the twentieth day means the 20th term, i.e. n = 20.
To determine that term, use the formula: [tex]a_{n} = a_{0}.r^{n-1}[/tex]
Substituing terms:
[tex]a_{20} = 0.01.2^{20-1}[/tex]
[tex]a_{20} = 0.01.2^{19}[/tex]
[tex]a_{20} = 0.01.524288[/tex]
[tex]a_{20} = 5242.88[/tex]
Then, on the 20th day, your uncle gave to you $5242.88
