Nancy was laid off and applied for unemployment benefits in July. In her state, the weekly unemployment benefit is 55% of the ​2

6-week average of the two highest salaried quarters of the year leading to her application. In April, May, and June, Nancy earned a total of 13,500. In January, Febuary, and March her total income was 12,775. What will Nancy​ weekly benfits be?

Answer:

$277.91

Step-by-step explanation:

"The 26-week average of the two highest-earning quarters prior to her application" is calculated from $13,500 and $12,775, yielding

$13,500 + $12,775

---------------------------- = $13,137.50

2

By dividing this by 26 weeks (which is equivalent to 6 months), the result is $505.29.

Thus, Nancy's weekly unemployment benefit would be 55% of that, equaling $277.91.

Inessa [12570]

Answer:

The value calculated is Z = 2.53, which exceeds 1.96 at a significance level of 0.05

This leads to the rejection of the null hypothesis H₀

Thus, we accept the alternative hypothesis

This implies that individuals participating in Weight Reducers will lose more than 10 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

The size of the random sample 'n' = 50

The new weight-loss program, Weight Reducers International, claims that members will shed an average of 10 pounds within the initial two weeks, with a standard deviation of 2.8 pounds.

Population mean 'μ' = 10 pounds

Population standard deviation 'σ' = 2.8 pounds

Sample mean 'x⁻' = 9

Significance level ∝ = 0.05

Step(ii):-

Null hypothesis: H₀: μ < 10

Alternative hypothesis: H₁: μ > 10

Test statistic calculation

z= \frac{x^{-} - mean}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }

z= \frac{9 - 10}{\frac{2.8}{\sqrt{50} } } = \frac{-1}{0.395} = 2.53

The determined Z value is 2.53

In this case, the critical value Z is 1.96 at the 0.05 significance level

Step(iii):-

Calculated Z value of 2.53 is greater than 1.96 at a significance level of 0.05

Consequently, we reject the null hypothesis H₀

We accept the alternative hypothesis

Conclusion:-

We determine that individuals who sign up for Weight Reducers will experience a weight loss exceeding 10 pounds

A child rides a pony on a circular track whose radius is 5.25 m. a) Find the distance traveled and the displacement after the ch
tester [12383]

Answer:

a) The distance covered halfway = 16.49 [m], while the displacement at that point = 10.5 [m]b)

The distance traveled increases

when the child finishes one lap around the track.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Distance is a scalar measurement

that indicates how much ground an object has traversed in motion. Contrarily, displacement is a vector measurement which describes how far an object is from its original position after moving.

In this scenario, the child travels halfway around the circular track from point 1 to point 2. We know that the circumference or perimeter of a circle can be calculated as 2*PI*radius. Since the child only covers half the distance, we need to divide the circumference by 2, leading to distance = PI*radius

The halfway distance = (PI)*(5.25) = 16.49 [m]
Considering the definition of displacement, it’s clear that the distance from point 1 to point 2 equals one diameter from the starting point:

The halfway displacement = D = 2*radius = 2(5.25) = 10.5 [m]

b) What occurs to the distance after the child completes one full circuit? The distance will increase since the child covers more ground during the full lap:

  • The distance for one circuit = 2*(PI)*radius = 2(PI)(5.25) = 32.99 [m]

32.99 is greater than 16.49, confirming that the distance does indeed increase.
