If I remember correctly I’m pretty sure you need to subtract
Hi! I'm happy to help!
Our town is composed of 2,000 people. Of those 2,000 people, 4/5 of them are middle class. The word 'of' usually means multiplication when it is in a word problem. So, we will multiply 2,000 by 4/5. When multiplying a whole number, we just multiply it by the numerator (top) and leave the denominator. (bottom)
2,000×4
8,000
8,000/5
Fractions are just a different way of putting division, so we can change this to a division problem:
8,000÷5=
1,600
1,600 of the people are middle class.
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
First you convert the percentage into a decimal. 18% to 0.18, then you multiply that decimal to the price of the item being discounted and bam, you have your price.
The question is asking for the lower bound of the 95% two tailed Confidence interval of the normally distributed population.
95% C.I. is given by 200 + or - 1.96(25) = 200 + or - 49 = (151, 249)
Therefore, the minimum weight of the middle 95% of players is 151 pounds.
