An article in the san jose mercury news stated that students in the california state university system take 4.5 years, on average, to finish their undergraduate degrees. suppose you believe that the mean time is longer. you conduct a survey of 39 students and obtain a sample mean of 5.1 with a sample standard deviation of 1.2. do the data support your claim at the 1% level? note: if you are using a student's t-distribution for the problem, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (in general, you must first prove that assumption, though.)

the answer is 200

step-by-step explanation:

the way the question is worded, it seems to imply the $264 interest is simple interest, not compound interest.

the simple interest for 2 years is $264; the simple interest for 1 year is $132.

$132 interest on a $600 investment means an interest rate of (132/600)*100 = 22%.

the value of $200 at 22% interest compounded annually for three years is

200%281.22%29%5e3

the amount of interest is that value, minus the original $200.

step-by-step explanation:

because first you have to add the 4x, 9x, and the 7x together and you get 20x and then you add the last numbers up and you get 5and then you put the subtraction sign in there and that's how you get the answer.
