Explain how to use proportional reasoning to find 35% of 600

1 answer:

8 0

$\frac{35}{100} = \frac{x}{600}$

This is the equation we would use for this problem.

Now when we cross multiply, we get:
35(600)=100x

Simplify:
21000=100x

Divide each side by 100 to get x b itself:
210=x

So, as you can see, 210 is 35% of 600

How can I create a word problem with the following expressions 15+2d 200-4m

Alenkasestr [34]

For the first expression
15 + 2d
A possible word problem would be this:
A person saves $2 per day of money. Before he started saving, he had $15 dollars set aside. Look for the expression that expresses the total amount of money saved in terms of the number of days passed

The second expression is
200 - 2m
A possible word problem would be this:
The distance from school to the park is 200m. A kid riding a bike is traveling at a speed of 2m/s from the school to the park. Write an expression for the distance remaining between the park and the kid.

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Probability of a sample that contains exactly two defective parts is .0037 or .37%

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know if P is the probability of achieving k results in n trials then probability formula is P = $\binom{n}{k}p^{K}q^{n-k}$
