For this case we must find an expression to find 40% of 25. So, we make a rule of three:

25 -----------> 100%

x -------------> 40%

Where "x" represents the amount that determines 40% of 25.

x = \frac {40 * 25} {100}\\x = 10

40% of 25 is 10. And an expression to find it is:

x = \frac {40 * 25} {100}

Answer:

x = \frac {40 * 25} {100}

<u>Answer:</u>

\frac {40} {100} * 25

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are asked to find an expression for 40% of 25.

Per-cent, as the name suggests, means one part in every hundred. To find 40%, we will divide the number 40 by 100. While the word 'of', in the mathematical context, means to multiply.

So the expression for 40% of 25 will be:

\frac {40} {100} * 25

In a certain​ chemical, the ratio of zinc to copper is 3 to 11. A jar of the chemical contains 385 grams of copper. How many gra
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

35 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of zinc to copper is 3 to 11

A jar of chemical contains 385 grams if copper

Therefore the number of grams of zinc it contains can be calculated as follows

3/11= x/385

11x= 385

x= 385/11

= 35 grams

Hence the chemical contains 35 grams of zinc

The FBI wants to determine the effectiveness of their 10 Most Wanted list. To do so, they need to find out the fraction of peopl
koban [17]

Answer:

<em>98% of confidence intervals for the Population proportion of people who captured after appearing on the 10 most wanted list</em>

(0.3583 , 0.4579)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Explanation</u>:-

<em>Given sample size 'n' = 517</em>

Given data Suppose a sample of 517 suspected criminals is drawn. Of these people, 211 were captured.

'x' =211

<em>The sample proportion</em>

                                   p^{-}  = \frac{x}{n} = \frac{211}{517} =0.4081

                                  q^{-} = 1-p^{-} = 1- 0.4081 = 0.5919

<em>98% of confidence intervals for the Population proportion of people who captured after appearing on the 10 most wanted list</em>

(p^{-}  - Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2}  } \sqrt{\frac{p^{-} (1-p^{-} )}{n} } , p^{-} + Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \sqrt{\frac{p^{-} (1-p^{-} }{n} } )

(0.4081  - 2.326   \sqrt{\frac{0.4081 (0.5919 )}{517} } , 0.4081+ 2.326\sqrt{\frac{0.4081(0.5919 }{517} } )

(0.4081-0.0498 , 0.4081 +0.0498)

(0.3583 , 0.4579)

<u><em>Conclusion</em></u>:-

<em>98% of confidence intervals for the Population proportion of people who captured after appearing on the 10 most wanted list</em>

(0.3583 , 0.4579)

hat is the value of the discriminant for the quadratic equation 0 = x + 2 + x2? Discriminant = b2 – 4ac –9 –7 7 9
Dovator [93]
For the general quadratic equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0 the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac.

So, for x^2 + x + 2 = 0, a = 1, b = 1, and c = 2, therefore

b^2 - 4ac = 1^2 - 4(1)(2) = 1 - 8 = - 7.

Answer: - 7

A girl can sweep the garage in 20 minutes, while her brother needs 30 minutes to do the same job. How many minutes will it take
Scrat [10]

I'm not sure your question has enough information to be answered properly, but I'll try to help:

Assuming each of them are sweeping 1/2 of the garge, we're gonna cut each of their times in half.

Now the girl needs 10 minutes for half the garage and her brother needs 15 minutes.

So, if they work together, the first ten minutes will overlap each other while the girls brother gets left behind to finish up for an extra five minutes.

So, when working together, the boy and the girl need 15 minutes to sweep the garage.
