Do the ratios 4/5 and 12/20 form a proportion?

Mathematics

7 0

Answer:

No. They are not in proportion

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf \dfrac{4}{5} \ \text{is in the simplest form}

\sf \text{Simplest form of $\dfrac{12}{20}$} = \dfrac{12 \div 4}{20 \div 4}=\dfrac{3}{5}

So, they are not in proportion

The company’s cost of manufacturing a single 1-inch binder is $0.25. What is the expected profit (in dollars) that the company w
pav-90 [236]

It should be noted that the mean and the standard deviation of the data given in will be 4.26 and 1.1011 respectively.

<h3>How to solve the mean.</h3>

From the complete information, the mean will be calculated as:

= (0.02 × 1) + (0.09 × 2) + (0.12 × 3) + (0.15 × 4) + (0.62 × 5)

E(X) = 4.26

The standard deviation will be calculated thus:

E(X²) = (0.02 × 1²) + (0.09 × 2²) + (0.12 × 3²) + (0.15 × 4²) + (0.62 × 5²)

E(X²) = 19.36

The standard deviation will then be the difference between the square root of 19.36 and 4.26². This will be 1.1011.

The expected profit of the company will be:

= 0.75 × E(X)

= 0.75 × 4.26

= $3.20

The mean of the total number of binders purchased will be:

= 4.26 + 2.74 = 7

The standard deviation will be 1.6658.

Lastly, the total expected profit will be:

= 0.75E(X) + 1.45E(Y)

= 0.75(4.26) + 1.45(2.74)

= 3.195 + 3.973

= 71.68

In 1994, the General Social Survey had a question that asked its participants (that currently smoked) if they had ever tried to
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

0.8239 is the population proportion of participants that tried quitting smoking.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 142

Participants that tried quitting smoking = 117

Parameter:

  • A parameter is a numerical value that describes a population.

Population proportion can be calculated as:

p = \dfrac{x}{n} \\\\p= \dfrac{117}{142} \\\\p= 0.8239

0.8239 is the population proportion of participants that tried quitting smoking.

50x+30y= 550 what is x and y
melomori [17]

Answer:

<u>x = 8 and y = 5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as following:

what is x and y for the following system of equations:

50x + 30 y = 550 ⇒ (1)

44x + 36 y = 532 ⇒ (2)

Subtract (1) - (2)

∴ 6x - 6y = 18

Divide both sides by 6

∴ x - y = 3

∴ x = 3 + y  ⇒ (3)

Substitute with the value of x at (1)

50(3+y) + 30y = 550

Solve for y

150 + 50y + 30y = 550

80y = 550 - 150 = 400

∴ y = 400/80 = 5

Substitute with the value of y at (3)

∴ x = 3 + y = 3 + 5 = 8

<u>So, x = 8 and y = 5</u>

Write an inequality to represent the graph below.
Yanka [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter C

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

1.- Find two points of the line

A ( 0, -3)   B ( 2, 2)

2.- Find the slope of the line

    m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{2 + 3}{2 - 0}

    m = \frac{5}{2}

3.- Find the equation of the line

    y - y1 = m(x - x1)

    y + 3 = 5/2(x - 0)

    y + 3 = 5/2 x

    y = 5/2 x - 3

4.- Convert the line to an inequality, we want the upper area so use ">"

    y > 5/2 x - 3
