Answer:

x=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Simplify 1/10x to x/10.

x/10 + 9/10 = 1/10

2 Join the denominators.

x+9/10 = 1/10

3 Multiply both sides by 10.

x+9 = 1/10×10

4 Cancel 10.

x+9=1

5 Subtract 9 from both sides.

x=1-9

6 Simplify 1-9 to -8.

x=-8

A map is being reduced to from a pocket sized version. What is the scale factor being used to reduce the map?

Aneli [31]

Answer and explanation:

If a map is being reduced to form a pocket sized version then it is being proportionality reduced a smaller size that is required. Cartographers enlarge and reduce maps proportionally to serve different purposes in their study. The map is still the same but smaller in size.

If on a map 2cm represents 2 meters, that is 0.02/2 which evaluates to 1/100, then we are comparing distance and ensuring they are proportional using scale factor(our scale factor is 1:100 here)

If 6 people want to share a 30 pound bag of beans equally by weight how many pounds of beans should each person get? Between wha

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The 6 people would each get 5lb. of beans. 5 lies between 4 and 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the answer to this problem, all you have to do is divide the total pounds of beans by how many people there are. 30 ÷ 6= 5, so each person would get 5 pounds. Since 5 comes between 4 & 6, you can use that as your answer.

Based on historical data, your manager believes that 37% of the company's orders come from first-time customers. A random sample

fomenos

Answer:

0.6214 = 62.14% probability that the sample proportion is between 0.26 and 0.38

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$
