Answer:
[tex]\frac{17}{100}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage is basically another way of writing a fraction.
If we have a percentage, x%, then it's fraction will be [tex]\frac{x}{100}[/tex].
Since 17 is the percentage here, the fraction is [tex]\frac{17}{100}[/tex].
This can't be simplified any further as 17 is a prime number.

Listed below are the amounts (dollars) it costs for marriage proposal packages at different baseball stadiums. Find the range, variance, and standard deviation for the given sample data. Include appropriate units in the results. Are there any outliers, and are they likely to have much of an effect on the measures of variation?
38, 50, 50, 55, 55, 95, 95, 130, 180, 213, 250, 350, 450, 1750, 3000
Answer:
Question 1
a) Range
= $2962
b) Variance
= $680557.4954
c) Standard Deviation
= $824.9590871
Question 2
Are there any outliers, and are they likely to have much of an effect on the measures of variation?
Yes, there are outliers present I the given sample data.
These outliers are the larger cost for marriage proposals which are: 1750, 3000
These largest costs are much bigger than the rest of the sample data, and they would likely have much of an effect on the measures of variation
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following sample data in dollars
38, 50, 50, 55, 55, 95, 95, 130, 180, 213, 250, 350, 450, 1750, 3000
Question 1
a) Range
This is the difference between the maximum cost and the minimum cost
The minimum cost = $38
The maximum cost = $3000
Range = $3000 - $38
= $2962
b) Variance
Reading the question, we are given sample data.
Hence, we use the formula for Variance of a sample
= (Mean - x)²/N - 1
Step 1
We find the Mean
Mean = Sum of terms/Number of terms
Number of terms = 15
Mean = 38 + 50 + 50 + 55 + 55 + 95 + 95 + 130 + 180 + 213 + 250 + 350 + 450+ 1750 + 3000/15
= $6761/15
= $450.7333333
Step 2
(x - Mean)²/N - 1
N = 15
= $[(38 - 450.7333333)²+ (50 + 450.7333333)²+( 50 +450.7333333)² + (55 +450.7333333)² + (55 +450.7333333)² + (95 + 450.7333333)²+ (95 +450.7333333)²+ (130 +450.7333333)²+ (180 +450.7333333)² + (213 + 450.7333333)²+ (250 +450.7333333)² + (350 + 450.7333333)² + (450 +450.7333333)²+ (1750 +450.7333333)² + (3000 +450.7333333)²]/15 - 1
=$ (- 412.7333333² + -400.7333333² + -400.7333333² + -395.7333333² + -395.7333333² + -355.7333333² + -355.7333333² + -320.7333333² + -270.7333333² + -237.7333333² + -200.7333333² + -100.7333333² + -0.7333333333² + 1299.266667² + 2549.266667²)/15 - 1
= $( 170348.8044+ 160587.2044, 160587.2044+ 156604.8711, 156604.8711+ 126546.2044, 126546.2044+ 102869.8711, 73296.53776+ 56517.13776, 40293.8711+ 10147.20444+ 0.5377777777+ 1688093.872, 6498760.539)/14
= $9527804.935/14
Variance = $680557.4954
c) Standard deviation = √Variance
Standard deviation = √$680557.4954
= $824.9590871
Question 2
Are there any outliers, and are they likely to have much of an effect on the measures of variation?
Yes, there are outliers present in the given sample data.

Find the arc length of ABC .
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the radius of the circle is 12 units, we can calculate the circumference.
2 * pi * r = 2 * pi * 12 = 24 * pi = 24pi.
The arc angle is 240 degrees, and the whole circle would be 360 degrees. So, we can set up an equation.
[tex]\frac{24\pi }{360} =\frac{x}{240}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{24\pi }{6} =\frac{x}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{4\pi }{1} =\frac{x}{4}[/tex]
1 * x = 4 * 4 * pi
x = 16pi
So, your answer is C.

Write an equation for a line parallel to the line y=1/3x-4 through (-3,2)
Answer:
(-4,-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
If a line must be parallel, then its slope must be the same.
Their points can be different, the slope should be same.
So, y = 1/3x - 4
=> We find the slope of the equation:
=> Slope = the number with which "x" is multiplied
=> Slope of this equation = 1/3
So, we need to find the point that makes a slope of 1/3 from (-3, 2)
=> Slope = y/x - y1/x1
=> 1/3 = -3/2 - y1/x1
=> y1/x1 = -3/2 - 1/3
=> y1/x1 = -3-1 / 2-3
=> y1/x1 = -4/-1
So, the point is (-4,-1)

The length of the base of a right-angle triangle ABC is 6 cm and the length of the hypotenuse is 10 cm find the area of the triangle
Answer:
The area of the triangle is 24 [tex]\text{cm}^{2}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the length of the base of a right-angle triangle ABC is 6 cm and the length of the hypotenuse is 10 cm.
And we have to find the area of the triangle.
As we know that the area of the triangle is given by the following formula;
Area of the triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times \text{Base} \times \text{Height}[/tex]
Firstly, we will find the height (perpendicular) of the triangle ABC bu using the Pythagoras Theorem.
[tex]\text{Hypotenuse}^{2} =\text{Perpendicular}^{2} +\text{Base}^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\text{10}^{2} =\text{Perpendicular}^{2} +\text{6}^{2}[/tex]
[tex]100=\text{Perpendicular}^{2} +36[/tex]
[tex]\text{Perpendicular}^{2} =100-36[/tex]
[tex]\text{Perpendicular}^{2} =64[/tex]
[tex]\text{Perpendicular} =\sqrt{64}[/tex] = 8 cm.
Now, the area of the triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times \text{Base} \times \text{Height}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times \text{6} \times \text{8}[/tex]
= 24 [tex]\text{cm}^{2}[/tex]
Hence, the area of the triangle is 24 [tex]\text{cm}^{2}[/tex].
Ella has 164 ounces of lemonade. She fills glasses with
8 ounces of lemonade each until all the lemonade is gone.
The last glass is not full. How much lemonade is in the
last glass?
Answer:
4 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide the 164 ounces by the 8 ounces per glass, you get 20.5 glasses filled. So, half of the last glass would be 4.
Answer:
4 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
We're looking for the remainder of ounces.
To find how many FULL glasses will be made, we divide 8 by 164 and look at the integer part of the number.
[tex]164\div8=20.5[/tex]
So 2 full glasses were made.
To find the remainder, we multiply 20 by 8 and subtract from 164.
[tex]20\cdot8=160\\\\164-160=4[/tex]

Troll Inc. has an outstanding issue of perpetual preferred stock with an annual dividend of $9.50 per share. If the required return on this preferred stock is 6.5%, at what price should the stock sell? * a) $104.27 b) $106.95 c) $109.69 d) $146.15 e) None of the above
Answer:
d) $146.15
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above Question, we are given the following values:
The annual dividend per share of a perpetual preferred stock = $9.50
The required return rate on this preferred stock = 6.5% = 0.06
The selling price of the stock = ??
The formula to calculate the Selling price of the stock =
Annual dividend per share / Required return rate
= $9.5/ 0.065
= $146.15384615
Approximately $146.15
Therefore, the price at which the stock should sell is $146.15.
A man drove 12 mi directly east from his home, made a left turn at an intersection, and then traveled 7 mi north to his place of work. If a road was made directly from his home to his place of work, what would its distance be to the nearest tenth of a mile?
Answer:
13.9 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
If we draw out the way he drove, the drive from his home to the intersection represents the long leg of a right triangle and the short leg can be represented by his drive from the intersection to the workplace.
A road from his home to work would represent the hypotenuse.
Since we know the distances of the legs, we can use the pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse, or the distance of the new road.
Plug in the values:
a² + b² = c²
12² + 7² = c²
193 = c²
13.9 = c
= 13.9 miles

Answer:
The height and width of the interior tile = 3·x + 4 - 4 = 3·x and 2·x + 4 - 4= 2·x
Please see attached diagram
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
The given rectangular floor tile with width = 3·x + 4 and height = 2·x + 4
Where, x is in centimetres
The interior tile maintains a height to width ration of 2:3
The dimension of the trim border = 2 cm
Therefore;
The relationship between the width and height of the interior and exterior tiles is given as follows
Width of exterior tile = Width of interior tile + 2 × The dimension of the trim border
Which gives;
Width of exterior tile = Width of interior tile + 2 × 2 = Width of interior tile + 4
Height of exterior tile = Height of interior tile + 2 × The dimension of the trim border
Height of exterior tile = Height of interior tile + 2 × 2 = Height of interior tile + 4
Where the interior tile maintains a height to width ration of 2:3, we have;
For a unit length x, The height and the width of the interior tiles are 2·x:3·x
Therefore, for a given height 2·x, the width will be 3·x
Given the width of the exterior tile = 3·x + 4
The height of the exterior tile will then be 2·x + 4 and the width of the exterior tile will be 3·x + 4
The sides ratio of the interior tiles remain 2·x:3·x = 2/3
find compound amount annually of p=4000,time=3/2 and rate =10% solve it step wise.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey, there!!
Principal (p) = 4000
Time = 3/2= 1.5 yrs.
rate = 10%
Now, we have formula,
[tex]c.a = p \times {(1 + \frac{r}{100}) }^{t} [/tex]
Putting their values,
[tex]ca = 4000\times {(1 + \frac{10}{100} )}^{1.5} [/tex]
[tex]ca =4000 \times {(1 + 0.1)}^{1.5} [/tex]
[tex]ca = 4000 \times 1.153689[/tex]
Simplifying them we get,
C.A = 4614.75

An apartment complex rents an average of 2.3 new units per week. If the number of apartment rented each week Poisson distributed, then the probability of renting no more than 1 apartment in a week is:_________
Answer:
[tex]P(X\leq 1) = 0.331[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Poisson Distribution;
Average rent in a week = 2.3
Required
Determine the probability of renting no more than 1 apartment
A Poisson distribution is given as;
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{y^xe^{-y}}{x!}[/tex]
Where y represents λ (average)
y = 2.3
Probability of renting no more than 1 apartment = Probability of renting no apartment + Probability of renting 1 apartment
Using probability notations;
[tex]P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)[/tex]
Solving for P(X = 0) [substitute 0 for x and 2.3 for y]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{2.3^0 * e^{-2.3}}{0!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{1 * e^{-2.3}}{1}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = e^{-2.3}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = 0.10025884372[/tex]
Solving for P(X = 1) [substitute 1 for x and 2.3 for y]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3^1 * e^{-2.3}}{1!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3 * e^{-2.3}}{1}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) =2.3 * e^{-2.3}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = 2.3 * 0.10025884372[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = 0.23059534055[/tex]
[tex]P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)[/tex]
[tex]P(X\leq 1) = 0.10025884372 + 0.23059534055[/tex]
[tex]P(X\leq 1) = 0.33085418427[/tex]
[tex]P(X\leq 1) = 0.331[/tex]
Hence, the required probability is 0.331
- 4(-5h-4)=2(10h+8) *
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to solve the given expression for the value of h.
- 4(-5h-4)=2(10h+8)
Opening brackets on both sides of the above equation
+20h+4=20h+16
Taking h terms on the one side and the constants on the another side
20h-20h=16-4
0=20
It means that the value of - 4(-5h-4)=2(10h+8) is equal to 0.

What is the difference between the values of 3, 3.0, and 3.00?
Answer:
There is no difference.
Step-by-step explanation:
When it comes to significant figures, they matter.
However, if you just add zeros, they essentially just become placeholders. 3 already has 0 for decimals, so it is equal to 3.0 and 3.00.
7 apples and 11 bananas cost $1.47. how much do 2 apples and a banana cost?
Answer: $0.27
Step-by-step explanation:
7a + 11b = 1.47
7a = 1.47 - 11b
[tex]a=\dfrac{1.47-11b}{7}[/tex]
Make a table. Choose values for b starting at $0.01 and solve for "a".
The value of "a" must terminate at the hundredths place since we are working with money.
You will discover that a = 0.10 and b = 0.07
The cost of 2 apples and 1 banana is:
2a + b
= 2(0.10) + (0.07)
= 0.20 + 0.07
= 0.27

We have,
The Sum of the three angles is 180 degrees.
33 + 87 + x = 180
x = 180 - 120
x = 60
Now,
x + y = 180
60 + y = 180
y = 180 - 60
y = 120
Thus,
The value of y is 120°.

Answer:
a.) mean = 9.23
ii) The mean represents the centre (A)
b) Median = 9
ii) The median represents the centre (A)
c) Mode = 8
ii) The mode(s) does (do) not represent the center because it(one) is the smallest data value. (D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Arranging the data in ascending order:
8 8 8 8 8 8 9 9 9 10 11 12 12
a) calculating for mean
[tex]\bar x = \frac{sum\ of\ data}{number\ of\ data}\\ \bar x = \frac{8+8+8+8+8+8+9+9+9+10+11+12+12}{13} \\\bar x =\frac{120}{13} \\\bar x = 9.23[/tex]
ii) does the mean represent the centre of the data?
The measure of central tendency/location is a statistical tool used to accurately depict values that are at the central location of the data set
Yes, the mean represents the centre of the data, because there are no outliers in the data set. Outliers are unusual values compared to the rest of the values in the dataset.
b) calculating the median (M)
[tex]M =( \frac{n\ +\ 1}{2})th\ term\\ \\where:\\n = number\ of\ data\ in\ the\ dataset = 13\\\\\therefore M = \frac{13+1}{2}\\ M = \frac{14}{2} \\M= 7th\ term[/tex]
The 7th term after arranging in ascending or descening order, is the median term
8 8 8 8 8 8 9 9 9 10 11 12 12
∴ Median = 9
ii) Yes, the Median represents the center of the data, because it litterally tells the data at the middle of the distribution
c) The mode is the data with the highest number of occurrence in the dataset (highest frequency); 8 8 8 8 8 8 9 9 9 10 11 12 12
The data with the highest number of occurrence is 8, which occurred 6 times.
Mode = 8
ii) The mode does not represent the centre of the data because it is the smallest value in the dataset, hence it doesn't tell the value that is the middle term.
