I provided the following answer in a similar question that I answered earlier: 

Not really. Lets say you have 19.8% of x ingredient, 20.7% of y ingredient, 30.6% of m ingredient ad 28.9% of k ingredient. For this medicine, the values would be rounded of to 20%, 21%, 31% and 29%....which adds up to 101%. So by rounding of to he nearest whole percent, you get a total percentage of more than 100%. This would be seen in the other medicines used in 'the table'. The fact that the total percentage for each one would add up to different values each time and not be constant makes the comparison invalid because the conditions being compared would be different. 

You have failed to provide the actual table, so I tried to do my best to come up with example figures to help you answer the question using the figures you have.

Is the sequence geometric? If so, identify the common ratio. 6, 12, 24, 48,
maxonik [38]
Yes
common ratio= r2/r1 or r3/r2 or r4/r3 if it is all the same then it is a geometric sequence, so the common ratio is 2 because 12/6=2, 24/12=2 and 48/24=2

Determine the domain of the function.<br><br> f(x)=4/x^2
harkovskaia [24]
Since x can be any value as long as the denominator equals 0 (it doesn't matter if it's positive or negative), we have to figure out when x^2=0, which is when x=0. Therefore, the domain is (-inf, 0) U (0, inf)

A student measured the dimensions of a table and recorded the length as 103.50cm and the width as 73.75cm. according to the stud
PolarNik [594]
The table is usually the shape of a rectangle. The area is equal to the length times the width. To make sure, let's recalculate the solution.

Area = length × width
Area = 103.50 cm × 73.75 cm
Area = <span>7,633.125 cm</span>²

So, we established that the answer is correct. Now, I'll introduce the concept of significant figures. There are rules regarding significant figures to be applied conventionally in measurements and calculations. This is to increase precision of the data. Significant figures are digits that carry meaning. When you are given data with a specific number of significant figures, the final answer should also contain the same number of significant figures. In convention, the rule says that the zero's after non-zero digits after the decimal point are significant. Also, all non-zero digits are significant. The value 103.50 has 5 significant figures, and 73.75 has 4. When it comes to multiplication, the answer should contain the least significant figures. So, we should have 4 significant figures. Therefore, the final answer to be reported should be 7,633 cm².

According to a study conducted by an​ organization, the proportion of Americans who were afraid to fly in 2006 was 0.10. A rando
krek1111 [17]

Answer: Even is not unusual.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

P = 0.10

n = 1200

x = 132

1. Sample of proportion ( ˆp ) = x/n

= 132/1200

= 0.11

2. Z = ˆp - p / √p ( 1 - p )/ n

= 0.11 - 0.10 / √0.10 ( 1 - 0.10 ) / 132

= 0.01 / 0.02611

= 0.3829

3. Probability

P ( ≥ 132 ) = P( Z > 1.50 ) = 1 - P( Z > 1.50 )

= 1 - 0.9332

= 0.0668

The probability is higher than (0.05). Which makes the event unusual, therefore there is no enough evidence which suggest that the number of Americans who are afraid to fly has increased.

Please Help<br> (f-g)(x)if f(x)=/16x4 and g(x)=3x2-3x-5
Snowcat [4.5K]

The value of the function  (f - g)(x) is x² + 3x + 5

<h3>How to solve functions?</h3>

A function is defined as a relation between a set of inputs having one output each.

In a simpler terms, a function relates input and output.

Therefore, let's solve the function (f - g)(x)

f(x) =  √16x⁴

g(x) = 3x² - 3x - 5

Therefore,

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

(f - g)(x) = √16x⁴ - (3x² - 3x - 5)

(f - g)(x) = √16x⁴ - 3x² + 3x + 5

(f - g)(x) = 4x² - 3x² + 3x + 5

Therefore,

(f - g)(x) = x² + 3x + 5
