60 is x% of 12. Find the value of x.

Liula [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a percentage proportion to find the value of x.

$\frac{12}{x} = \frac{60}{100}$

Now we cross multiply:

$100\cdot12=1200\\\\1200\div60=20$

Hope this helped!

In two hours Holden completed 3/4 of his race how long will it take Holden to complete the entire race?

vivado [14]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}$ = 50 Minutes

Whole Race Time : 2 Hour and 50 Minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

so 2 Hour = $\frac{3}{4}$ Race completed

we need to find what 1/4 Race = x Hours

so 200 divided by 4 because $\frac{3}{4}$ Race is done.

we need to find how long to finish the whole race also known as $\frac{4}{4}$ .

200 divided by 4 = 50

so Holden still need 50 Minutes to finish the race.

If a light bulb manufacturing company wants to estimate, with 99% confidence, the mean life of compact fluorescent light bulb

Reptile [31]

Answer:

We need at least 217 compact fluorescent light bulbs

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.99}{2} = 0.005$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.005 = 0.995$ , so $z = 2.575$

Now, find M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

How many compact fluorescent light bulbs need to be selected?

We need at least n bulbs, in which n is found when $M = 175, \sigma = 1000$

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$175 = 2.575*\frac{1000}{\sqrt{n}}$

$175\sqrt{n} = 2575$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2575}{175}$

$\sqrt{n} = 14.71$

$\sqrt{n}^{2} = (14.71)^{2}$

$n = 216.5$

We need at least 217 compact fluorescent light bulbs

A bear loves visiting his friend, the piglet. The distance between their houses is 300m , and the bear always walks from his hou

stira [4]

Answer:

10mins

Step-by-step explanation:

you can draw a rtd chart for this problem

rate (m/min)| time (mins) | distance (m )

regular: (300/x) | x | 300m

fist 1/4 : (300/x) | 75: (300/x) | 75m

last 3/4: | (300/x)+15 | 225:(300/x + 15) | 225m

then, make an equation for the times:

x= (75: (300/x)) + (225: ( (300/x)+15) + 2.5 = x

// get the 2.5 mins from the stop for honey, and we know that regular speed is equal to the one with a stop

solve equation to get x=-20/3 , x=10, because speed is positive, x=10 is the most reasonable answer
