The largest possible value for the decimal $a. B + c. D$ us:
9.7 + 8.6 which results to 18.3.
Given that a, b, c, and d are different numbers (from 1 to 9), we are to find the largest possible value of a.b + c.d.
This problem can be answered by trial and error and with some logic. Clearly, a to d cannot be at the lower end of the values (1 to 5). Since the digits must be different, it can be a combination of digits from 6 to 9.
It is rather tempting to say that the 9.8 + 7.6 would yield the highest possible sum (=17.4) but this is incorrect. Since it is the sum of two numbers with a decimal, we have to maximize on the ones digit first before maximizing the tenths digit. Therefore: the combination of numbers must then be:
9.7 + 8.6 which results to 18.3
9.6 + 8.7 yields 18.3 as well.
Hence we get the required answer,

A department store buys 200 shirts at a cost of $1400 and sells them at a selling price of $10 each. Find the percent markup.
The percent markup price is equivalent to 42.86%.
What is a expression? What is a mathematical equation? What is Equation Modelling?
A mathematical expression is made up of terms (constants and variables) separated by mathematical operators. A mathematical equation is used to equate two expressions. Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis, observations and results of the given problem.
We have a department store buys 200 shirts at a cost of $1400 and sells them at a selling price of $10 each
Cost price of 200 shirts = C.P. = $1400
Selling price of 200 shirts = S.P = $(10 x 200) = $2000
Percentage markup = [(2000 - 1400)/1400] x 100 = (600/1400) x 100 = 600/14 = 42.86%.
Therefore, the percent markup price is equivalent to 42.86%.

Probability - The answer to the problem is P(Y = 4) = 3/32
What is Probability?
Probability is an area of mathematics that deals with numerical representations of how probable an event is to occur or how likely a statement is to be true. The probability of an occurrence is a number between 0 and 1, where 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 represents certainty.
Solution:
Mean = 120
Standard Deviation = 5
Z = (X - Mean)/Standard Deviation
Z = 1/2
(i) P(Y = 4) = 6/4 * (1/2)^2 * (1-1/2)^6-4
P(Y = 4) = 3/2 * 1/4 * 1/4
P(Y = 4) = 3/32
(ii)P(X > 500) = 1 - P(X ≤ 500)
= 1 - Φ(500; 480, 10)

HELP ME ASAP What is the best estimate of the solution to the system?
Answer:
(-3.4,2.7)
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason it's asking for an estimate, is because the intersection point is not on exact integer coordinates.
Start with the x-value of the intersection point. All options contain either -3.4 or -3.7. The x-value of the intersection point is closer to -3 than -4, so -3.4 is a better estimate.
Do the same with the y-value. Since the intersection point is closer to 3 than 2, 2.7 is the best estimate here.
Answer:
Last choice: (-3.4, 2.7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, you could actually solve the two line equations and arrive at the answer but that is not the intent of the question.
The solution of the two line equations is the point at which the two lines intersect
At this point the x value is closer to -3 than to -4. So the x value from the choices would be -3.4 rather than -3.7
We can eliminate 1st and 3rd choices
The y value is closer to 3 than it is to 2 so the y-value estimate would be 2.7
Correct choice: (-3.4, 2.7)

Explanation:
Let's see if 2/6 is equivalent to 1/2. For now, let's assume they are equal fractions. If so, then,
2/6 = 1/2
2*2 = 6*1 ... cross multiplying
4 = 6
The last equation is of course false, which then causes a domino effect to make the first equation false as well. This means 2/6 is not equivalent to 1/2.
You can use a calculator to find that
2/6 = 0.3333 approximately1/2 = 0.5 exactlyWhich is another way to see how the fractions aren't the same.
----------------
Let's check to see if 2/6 is equivalent to 3/9.
2/6 = 3/9
2*9 = 6*3 ... cross multiplying
18 = 18
We get the same thing on both sides, which means the third equation is true. By extension, the first equation is true as well. We have shown that 2/6 and 3/9 are equivalent.
Take note how both of those fractions reduce to 1/3, which is another way to see how they are equivalent.
Yet another way is to use a calculator to find that
2/6 = 0.3333...3/9 = 0.3333...Both approximate decimal values involve '3's going on forever.

You roll two dice, one red and one green. Losing combinations are doubles (both dice showing the same number) and outcomes in which the green die shows an odd number and the red die shows an even number. The other combinations are winning ones. E is the event that you roll a winning combination.
The likelihood that an event will occur—is determined. The most basic illustration is a coin toss. There are only two outcomes when you flip a coin: either it comes up heads or tails.
Here,
If the first die is red and the second one is green, then the sample space S is the following:
S=
(1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5), (1,6), (2, 1), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (2,5), (2,6), (3, 1), (3,2), (3,3), (3,4), (3,5), (3,6), (4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5), (4,6), (5, 1), (5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (5,6), (6, 1), (6, 2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)
Hence n(S)=36.
Let's list the losing combinations:
E={(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4), (5, 5), (6, 6), (2, 1),
(2, 3), (2, 5), (4, 1), (4, 3), (4, 5), (6, 1), (6, 3), (6,5)}
n(E)=15
There are 36 total possiblities.
Out of which, winning probability is 21.
=21/36
=7/12
Given that the winning combination is 21 and the total combination is 36, the chance of rolling a winning combination is 7/12.

A researcher wishes to calculate the height of patients suffering from a heart disease. From patient records, the mean was computed to be 156cm, with a standard deviation of 5cm. Further investigation reveals that the scale was misaligned, and that all readings are 2cm too large, for example, a patient whose height is really 180cm was measured as 182 cm. Furthermore, the researcher would like to work with statistics based on meters (1 meter= 100 centimeters). What would be the revised values for the mean and standard deviation of the patients’ height?
The revised values of the mean and standard deviation are respectively; 154 cm and 5 cm
What is the mean and standard deviation?Let us assume that the number of Patients is denoted as P. We are given;
Mean = 156 cm
We know that mean here is gotten from the formula;
Mean = Total height/number of patients
Thus;
Total Height = 156P cm
We are told that each height was measured 2 cm more. Thus;
Total height reduction = 2P cm
Thus;
Actual Total Height = 156P - 2P = 154P cm
Mean = 154P/P = 154 cm
Therefore, as each reading and mean both have shifted by 2 then Standard deviation will remain same as 5cm

what is the probability that headway is within 1 standard deviation of the mean value? (round your answer to three decimal places.)
The probability that headway is within 1 standard deviation of the mean value is 0.890.
What is mean value?
By dividing the sum of the given numbers by the entire number of numbers, the mean—the average of the given numbers—is determined.
The mean of a discrete probability distribution of a random variable X is equal to the sum over all possible values weighted by the likelihood of each value. To calculate the mean, one must multiply each potential value of X by its probability P(x), then add all of these products.
Given mean value is P( 0.995 ≤ x ≤ 1.445) = F(1.445) - F(0.995).
The cdf for the distribution is
[tex]F(x)=\left \{ {{1 -\frac{1}{x^6} ,x > 1} \atop {0,x\le 1}} \right.[/tex]
Now calculate the value of F(1.445) and F(0.995).
F(1.445) = 1 - (1/(1.445)⁶)
F(0.995) = 0
Now putting the value of F(1.445) and F(0.995) in P( 0.995 ≤ x ≤ 1.445) = F(1.445) - F(0.995):
P( 0.995 ≤ x ≤ 1.445)

Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
8 * (1.0 - .25) = 6
Answer: 6
Step-by-step explanation: 8 - 4 is equivalent to 8 - 50%, cut 4 in half which gives 2, 2 is 25% of 8, so 8 - 2 = 6
which relationships describe angles 1 and 2? select each correct answer. responses complementary angles complementary angles adjacent angles adjacent angles vertical angles vertical angles supplementary angles supplementary angles a line goes left to right with a ray in the middle creating a right angle and another ray between the right angle with a one labeling the left angle and a two labeling the right angle
Angles 1 and 2 are neighboring, hence the fourth choice is accurate. Angles 1 and 2 are adjacent.
The term "Angle" refers to the separation between line segments or rays that converge at a single point.
The following may be said about angles 1 & 2:
In a line that proceeds from left to right, there is a ray in the middle that forms a right angle, a second ray between the two right angles, and one light that labels both the left angle and the right angle.
We can draw just as in the image.
Angles 1 and 2 are neighboring because they share a vertex, as seen in the image.
Angle 2 equals 90 degrees
Angle 1 equals 45 degrees
Angles 1 and 2 are adjacent, so option 4 is correct because it describes the relationship between them.

Pentagon PQRST is a scale drawing of pentagon ABCDE.
In the scale drawing of the 2 pentagons the value of x is 3
How to find the value of xTo find the value of x in the pentagon, the scale factor is first determined
The scale factor is solved for as follows
AB * r = PQ
in the figure AB = 5 and PQ =2.5
5r = 2.5
r = 2.5 / 5
r = 0.5
Using the scale factor r = 0.5
6 * r = x
6 * 0.5 = x
3 = x
x = 3

In an all boys school, the heights of the student body are normally distributed with a mean of 68 inches and a standard deviation of 4. 5 inches. Using the empirical rule, what percentage of the boys are between 54. 5 and 81. 5 inches tall?.
According to the empirical law of statistics, 99.7% of the males are between 54.5" and 81.5" tall.
What is empirical rule?The 68-95-99.7 rule, also known as the empirical rule, indicates where most of the values in a normal distribution are distributed: The majority of values—about 68%—fall within the range of the mean. The average value is within two standard deviations for about 95% of the data. Almost all values, 99.7% of them, fall within a 3 standard deviation range.
Here,
mean=68 inch
standard deviation=4.5 inch
The first part of the empirical rule states that 68% of the data values will fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean. To calculate "within 1 standard deviation," you need to subtract 1 standard deviation from the mean, then add 1 standard deviation to the mean. That will give you the range for 68% of the data values.
68−4.5=63.5
68+4.5=72.5
The range of numbers is 63.5 to 72.5
The second part of the empirical rule states that 95% of the data values will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean. To calculate "within 2 standard deviations," you need to subtract 2 standard deviations from the mean, then add 2 standard deviations to the mean. That will give you the range for 95% of the data values.
68−2⋅4.5=59
68+2⋅4.5=77
The range of numbers is 59 to 77
Finally, the last part of the empirical rule states that 99.7% of the data values will fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean. To calculate "within 3 standard deviations," you need to subtract 3 standard deviations from the mean, then add 3 standard deviations to the mean. That will give you the range for 99.7% of the data values.
68−3⋅4.5=54.5
68+3⋅4.5=81.5
The range of numbers is 54.5 to 81.5
99.7% of the boys are between 54. 5 and 81. 5 inches tall using the empirical rule of statistics.
