x            40

------ = --------

955    100


Cross multiply

955x40=38200

38200÷100=382

u get 382

955 -382= 573

$573

<h2>Steps</h2>

So here are the rules with change by percentage (m = percentage in decimal form, n = original, and r = new):

  • If <em>increase</em>: (1 + m)n = r
  • If <em>decrease</em>: (1 - m)n = r

Since this is a price <em>reduction</em>, we will be following the second rule. In this case:

40\%=0.4\\\\(1-0.4)*955=r\\0.6*955=r\\573=r

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>In short, the reduced price of the computer is $573.</u>

Hey can someone help me?
ddd [48]
Y + 4x < 8
y < -4x + 8
2 points that satisfy this are (0,8) and (2,0)....and those happen to be ur x and y intercepts (where the line crosses the x and y axis)

graph...so go ahead and plot ur x and y intercepts (0,8) and (2,0).....ur slope is - 4.....so start at ur y int (0,8) and go down 4 spaces, and to the right 1...plot that point, then go down 4 spaces and to the right 1, then plot that point...keep doing this and u will have ur line...u should have crossed the x axis at (0,2)......ur line will be a dashed line since the problem has no equal sign.... the shading will go below the line because it is less then.

y - 3 > = 1/2x
y > = 1/2x + 3
2 points that satisfy this are : (0,3) and (-6,0)...ur x and y intercepts

graph : plot ur intercepts (0,3) and (-6,0)....u have a slope of 1/2...so start at ur x intercept (-6,0) and go up 1 space, and to the right 2 spaces, plot that point...then go up 1 and to the right 2, plot that point...keep doing this and u will cross the y axis at (0,3)....this line will be a solid line....the shading will go above the line.

Jane is trying to estimate the average electric bill amount of people who live in Las Cruces in summer time. She randomly select
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The estimated average electric cost amount of all residents in Las Cruces = 182.9

Step-by-step explanation:

The bill amounts from the electric company for the month of July for 10 randomly selected houses from the map was obtained to be

135 265 215 103 156 203 125 156 230 241

Using the Central Limit theory, the mean of a sample extracted randomly from an independent distribution is approximately equal to the population mean of the independent distribution.

This means that the sample mean of a random sample extracted from the population is a good estimate of the population mean.

Sample mean ≈ Population mean

μₓ = μ

Mean = = (Σx)/N

The mean is the sum of variables divided by the number of variables

x = each variable

N = Sample size = 10

Σx = (135+265+215+103+156+203+125+156+230+241) = 1,829

Sample mean = (1,829/10) = 182.9

Population mean ≈ sample mean

Population mean ≈ 182.9

Hope this Helps!!!

You would add 10.3 and 5.9 which would equal 16.2, and subtract that from 20 and change that decimal into a fraction, which would be 19/50
