a) Decimals
b) Fractions
c) Percentages
d) Digits

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c) Percentages

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages can be used to compare changes from one period to another.

In calculating a percentage change, either a percentage increase or percentage decrease, we must have both the new and old measurement of the specific quantity.

For example, let's find percentage increase of the number of students that joined a book club using the parameters below;

Original number of students = 32

New number of students = 36

We will calculate the increase using;

[tex] Increase = original \; number - new \; number [/tex]

Substituting the values, we have;

Increase = 36 - 32 = 4

[tex] Percentage \; increase = \frac{increase}{original \; number} * 100[/tex]

[tex] Percentage \; increase = \frac{4}{32} * 100[/tex]

[tex] Percentage \; increase = 0.125 * 100[/tex]

Percentage increase = 12.5%

Therefore, the number of students in the school club increased by 12.5%.

With a coupon, you can get a pair of shoes that normally cost $84 for only $72. What percentage was the discount. Please give the step by step explanation!

Answers

Answer:

14.28%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

You can get a pair of shoes that normally cost $84 for only $72.

We need to find the discount percentage. So, it can be calculated as follows :

[tex]\%=\dfrac{84-72}{84}\times 100\\\\\%=14.28\%[/tex]

So, the required percentage is 14.28%.

A clock gains time at a steady rate. It is set to the correct time at
10: 00 AM. When the clock shows 2 : 00 PM, the correct time is
1: 36 PM. How many minutes fast will the clock be the next time the
correct time is 5 : 30 PM?

Answers

Answer:

The clock will be 50 minutes fast

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

It's known a clock gains time at a steady state, or constant rate.

At 10:00 AM the clock is set at the correct time and at 1:36 PM the clock shows 2:00 PM. This means in that period of time, it has gained 24 minutes.

From 10:00 AM to 1:36 PM there are 3 hours and 36 minutes, or equivalently, 3*60+36 = 216 minutes

Our clock gains time at a rate of 24 minutes each 216 minutes. This gives the ratio 24:216 = 1:9.

When the new correct time is 5:30 PM, there will have passed 7 hours and 30 minutes since 10:00 AM, or equivalently, 7*60+30 = 450 minutes.

Since the clock gains time at a ratio 1:9, the time gained is 450/9=50 minutes.

The clock will show 50 minutes more than the correct time of 5:30 PM, that is, 6:20 PM.

The clock will be 50 minutes fast

Suppose that f (x) = 1.5x2 for -1 < x < 1 and f (x) = 0 otherwise. Determine the following probabilities.

a. P(0 < X)
b. P(0.5 < X)
c. P(-0.5 = X = 0.5)
d. P(X<-2)
e. P(X < 0 or X>-0.5)
f. Determine x such that P(x < X) = 0.05.

Answers

Answer:

a) P(0 < X) = 0.5

b) P(0.5 < X) = 0.4375

c) P(-0.5 = X = 0.5) = 0.125

d) P(X< -2) = 0

e) P(X < 0 or X>-0.5) = 1

f) value of x is -0.9654

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

f(x) = 1.5x²

Now. the probabilities would be the integral of the given function from (-1 to 1)

a) P(0 < X)

P(X > 0)

⇒ Integral from 0 to 1 of f(x)

= (1/2)x³

= 1/2 - 0

= 0.5

Therefore; P(0 < X) = 0.5

b) P(0.5 < X)

P(X > 0.5)

this will also be done in the same way except that, the limits changes to { 0.5 to 1]

= (1)³/2 - (0.5)³ /2  

= 0.4375

Therefore; P(0.5 < X) = 0.4375

c) P(-0.5 = X = 0.5)

The limits become [-0.5 , 0.5]

= (0.5)³/2 - (-0.5)³/2

= 0.125

Therefore; P(-0.5 = X = 0.5) = 0.125

d) P(X<-2)

since value of f(x) = 0 in that region

Therefore P(X< -2) = 0

e) P(X < 0 or X>-0.5)

= P(X < 0) + P(X > -0.5) - P( -0.5 < X < 0 )

= 0.5 + 0.5625 - 0.0625  

= 1

Therefore; P(X < 0 or X>-0.5) = 1

f) Determine x such that P(x < X) = 0.05.

Let the value be 'a'

Then, integral from -1 to a will = 0.05

a³ - (-1)³ = 0.05 × 2

a³ + 1 = 0.10

a³ = 0.10 - 1

a³ = -0.9

a = ∛-0.9  

a = -0.9654

Therefore, value of x is -0.9654

a) P(0 < X) = 0.5

b) P(0.5 < X) = 0.4375

c) P(-0.5 = X = 0.5) = 0.125

d) P(X< -2) = 0

e) P(X < 0 or X>-0.5) = 1

f) value of x is -0.9654

Determine the following probabilities:

a) P(0 < X)

P(X > 0)

⇒ Integral from 0 to 1 of f(x)

[tex]= (1\div 2)x^3\\\\= 1\div2 - 0[/tex]

= 0.5

So; P(0 < X) = 0.5

b) P(0.5 < X)

P(X > 0.5)

Now

[tex]= (1)^3\div 2 - (0.5)^3 \div2[/tex]

= 0.4375

Therefore; P(0.5 < X) = 0.4375

c) P(-0.5 = X = 0.5)

The limits become [-0.5 , 0.5]

[tex]= (0.5)^3\div 2 - (-0.5)^3\div 2[/tex]

= 0.125

Therefore; P(-0.5 = X = 0.5) = 0.125

d) P(X<-2)

since value of f(x) = 0 in that region

Therefore P(X< -2) = 0

e) P(X < 0 or X>-0.5)

= P(X < 0) + P(X > -0.5) - P( -0.5 < X < 0 )

= 0.5 + 0.5625 - 0.0625  

= 1

Therefore; P(X < 0 or X>-0.5) = 1

f) Determine x such that P(x < X) = 0.05.

Let us assume the value be 'a'

So, integral from -1 to a will = 0.05

[tex]a^3 - (-1)^3 = 0.05 \times 2\\\\a^3 + 1 = 0.10\\\\a^3 = 0.10 - 1\\\\a^3 = -0.9\\\\a = \sqrt[3]{-0.9}[/tex]

a = -0.9654

Therefore, the value of x is -0.9654

1/6x = 45x = $270

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 friends total and for them to make $45 each, you would need to multiply 6 to 45.  The only way you could do this is if you have a fraction supporting the variable.

1/6x = 45

~Multiply 6 to both sides

x = 270

Best of Luck!

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\$ 270}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can break this problem down to understand it.

Chad and his friend make an unknown amount of money while selling t-shirts. We'll assign this to a variable, [tex]x[/tex].

After splitting it amongst him and his 5 friends, he wants everyone to have $45.

Therefore, we can multiply the profit per person by the number of people to find how much money has to be made in total.

Chad + 5 people = 6 people

We can write an equation for this problem.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{6}x=45[/tex]

To solve this, we multiply both sides by 6 to cancel out the [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] (as [tex]\frac{1}{6} \cdot 6 = 1[/tex]).

[tex]45 \cdot 6 = 270[/tex]

A 6 foot man measured his shadow at13 feet 9 inches. Then he measured the

shadow of a flagpole at 125 feet. How tall is the flagpole?(Round to the

nearest tenth)

Answers

Answer:

The flagpole is 54.5 inches tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using proportions, by rule of three.

Each feet has 12 inches. So

A 6 foot man measured his shadow at13 feet 9 inches.

So when the real height is of 6 feet, the shadow is of 13 feet + (9/12) feet = 13.75 feet.

When the shadow is of 125 feet, the height is x. So

6 feet - 13.75 feet

x feet - 125 feet

Applying cross multiplication

[tex]13.75x = 6*125[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{6*125}{13.75}[/tex]

[tex]x = 54.5[/tex]

The flagpole is 54.5 inches tall.

The mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution is equal to the population mean and standard deviation respectively.  The only difference is that the population mean and standard deviation are parameters or fixed values calculated from every individual in the population, while the sample mean and standard deviation are statistics.  Statistics are calculated from only some of the individuals in a population.  They are meant to represent or approximate the population parameters.
