Response:

Dimensions of the rectangular fence:

x = 14 ft

w = 7 ft

A = 98 ft²

Detailed explanation:

Dimensions of the rectangular fence:

x = length, and w = width

Then x = 2*w ⇒ w = x/2

Perimeter is

p = 2*x + 2*w

p = 2*x + 2* x/2

p = 2*x + x

3*x = 42

x = 14 ft and w = 14/2  ⇒ w = 7 ft

A major department store chain is interested in estimating the mean amount its credit card customers spent on their first visit
Inessa [9006]

Answer: D) \$50\pm\$11.08

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the provided information, we have

Sample size: n= 15

sample mean: \overline{x}=\$50.50

Sample standard deviation: s= $20

Since the population standard deviation is not known, we utilize a t-test.

For a significance level of 95% confidence: \alpha=1-0.95=0.05

Critical t-value : t_{n-1, \alpha/2}=t_{014,0.025}=2.145  [Using the Student's t-value table]

The required 95% confidence interval yields:-

\overline{x}\pm t_{n-1, \alpha/2}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\ =\$50.50\pm(2.145)\dfrac{\$20}{\sqrt{15}}\\\\\approx \$50\pm\$11.08

Thus, the sought-after 95% confidence interval for the mean amount spent by credit card customers during their initial visit to the new store in the mall, assuming normal distribution of the spending amounts, is:

\$50\pm\$11.08

PIT_PIT [9121]

Answer:

(C) 10% to 70%(

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that at least 40% of the students are learning German, the upper limit of those who might be enrolled in English but not in German is 60%. However, since a minimum of 70% study English, it leads to the conclusion that at least 10% of students must be taking both German and English.

If we consider that at least 30% of students are learning Italian, and assuming that no student is studying all three languages simultaneously, then there is a maximum of 70% of students who could potentially be registered in both English and German.

This means the possible percentage for students enrolled in both English and German ranges from 10% to 70%
