Answer:

Will is 34% taller than Wanda, so Will's height is 134% of Wanda's height.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Will is 34% of Wanda's height, we can conclude that he has all of Wanda's height plus 34% of that height. All the height of Wanda represents 100% as it is referring to a complete system. From this we can conclude that Will is 100% more 34% of Wanda's height. Thus we can conclude that if Will is 34% higher than Wanda, then Will's height is 134% (100% + 34%) of Wanda's height.

The easiest way for me to do this is too set their heights to actual numbers. Say Wanda is 100 feet tall (which I know isn’t a thing, but 100 is always an easy number for percentages.) If will is 34% taller than 100 feet, 1% is 1 foot, so Will is 134 feet tall. 134 / 100 is 134%, so will’s height is 134% of Wanda/s height. Hope this helps!

A roll of steel is manufactured on a processing line. The anticipated number of defects in a 10-foot segment of this roll is two

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

the probability of no defects in 10 feet of steel = 0.1353

Step-by-step explanation:

GIven that:

A roll of steel is manufactured on a processing line. The anticipated number of defects in a 10-foot segment of this roll is two.

Let consider β to be the average value for defecting

So;

β = 2

Assuming Y to be the random variable which signifies the anticipated number of defects in a 10-foot segment of this roll.

Thus, y follows a poisson distribution as number of defect is infinite with the average value of β = 2

i.e

$Y \sim P( \beta = 2)$

the probability mass function can be represented as follows:

$\mathtt{P(y) = \dfrac{e^{- \beta} \ \beta^ \ y}{y!}}$

where;

y = 0,1,2,3 ...

Hence, the probability of no defects in 10 feet of steel

y = 0

$\mathtt{P(y =0) = \dfrac{e^{- 2} \ 2^ \ 0}{0!}}$

$\mathtt{P(y =0) = \dfrac{0.1353 \times 1}{1}}$

P(y =0) = 0.1353

At a sale, suits were sold for $116 each. This price was 58% of a suit's original price. How much did a suit originally cost?

Fudgin [204]

To find the original price first put the % into decimal form.

58% is 0.58.

Then divide the discounted price ($116) by the % in decimal form:

116 / 0.58

Original price is $200.00
