Answer:

-20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Regular price = $600

Current sale price = $480

To find the percentage decrease in this case, use percentage change formula;

Percentage change = \frac{Current price - Regular price}{Regular price}*100

Next, plug in the numbers into the formula ;

Percentage change = \frac{(480 -600)}{600}*100 \\ \\ =\frac{-120}{600} *100\\ \\ =-0.2*100\\ \\ =-20%

Therefore, the percentage decrease is -20%

Answer:

Without them, there would have been no United States of America.

The Founding Fathers, a group of predominantly wealthy plantation owners and businessmen, united 13 disparate colonies.

They fought for independence from Britain and penned a series of influential governing documents that steer the country to this day.

All the Founding Fathers, including the first four U.S. presidents, at one point considered themselves British subjects.

But they revolted against the restrictive rule of King George III outlining their grievances in the Declaration of Independence, a powerful call for freedom and equality.

They won a stunning military victory over what was then the world’s preeminent superpower.

An electrical firm manufactures light bulbs that have a length of life that is approximately normally distributed, with mean equ
kompoz [17]

Answer:

0.62% probability that a random sample of 16 bulbs will have an average life of less than 775 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Normal probability distribution.

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 800, \sigma = 40, n = 16, s = \frac{40}{\sqrt{16}} = 10

Find the probability that a random sample of 16 bulbs will have an average life of less than 775 hours.

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 775. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{775 - 800}{10}

Z = -2.5

Z = -2.5 has a pvalue of 0.0062. So there is a 0.62% probability that a random sample of 16 bulbs will have an average life of less than 775 hours.
