Exam​ question: You can buy a 57​-pound bag of flour for ​$ 11 or you can buy a​ 1-pound bag for $ 0.41 Compare the per pound co

st for the large and small bags. Student​ solution: The large bag price is 57 divided by ÷​$ 11 equals =​$ 5.18 per​ pound, which is much more than the 41 cents 41¢ per pound price of the small bag.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

57 lb bag for $ 11  or 1 lb bag for $ 0.41

11/51 = 0.215 .....rounds to 0.22 ......this is the correct way...... the student messed up and divided wrong.

the large bag only charges $ 0.22 per lb, whereas, the small bag charges $ 0.41 per lb.

For the rhombus below, find the measure of angles 1,2,3 and 4.
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

∠1 is 33°

∠2 is 57°

∠3 is 57°

∠4 is 33°

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we already know that ∠2 is 57° because of alternate interior angles.

Second, it's important to know that rhombus' diagonals bisect each other; meaning they form 90° angles in the intersection. Another cool thing is that the diagonals bisect the existing angles in the rhombus. Therefore, 57° is just half of something.

Then, you basically just do some other pain-in-the-butt things after.

Since that ∠2 is just the bisected half from one existing angle, that means that ∠3 is just the other half; meaning that ∠3 is 57°, as well.

Next is to just find the missing angle ∠1. Since we already know ∠3 is 57°, we can just add that to the 90° that the diagonals formed at the intersection.

57° + 90° = 147°

180° - 147° = 33°

∠1 is 33°

Finally, since that ∠4 is just an alternate interior angle of ∠1, ∠4 is 33°, too.

Of all the soft drink consumers in a particular sales region, 30% prefer Brand A and 70% prefer Brand
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Option D -0.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Preference of Brand A =30% ⇒ P(A)=\frac{30}{100}=0.3

Preference of Brand B =70% ⇒ P(B)=\frac{70}{100}=0.7

Prefer Brand A and are Female = 20% ⇒ P(A/F)=\frac{20}{100}=0.2

Prefer Brand B and are Female = 40% ⇒ P(B/F)=\frac{40}{100}=0.4

To find : Selected consumer is female, given that the person prefers Brand A P(F/A)

Solution : Using Bayes' theorem, which state that

P(A/B)=\frac{P(B/A)P(A)}{P(B)}

where, P(A) and P(B) are probabilities of observing A and B.

P(B/A)= is a conditional probability where event B occur and A is true

P(A/B)= also a conditional probability where event A occur and B is true.

Now, applying Bayes' theorem,

P(F/A)=\frac{P(A/F)P(A)}{P(B)P(B/F)+P(A)P(A/F)}

P(F/A)=\frac{(0.2)(0.3)}{(0.7)(0.4)+(0.3)(0.2)}

P(F/A)=\frac{0.6}{0.28+0.6}

P(F/A)=\frac{0.6}{0.88}

P(F/A)=0.68

Therefore, Option D is correct probability that a randomly selected consumer is female, given that the person prefers Brand A -0.67

What percent of 1.60 is 6
JulsSmile [24]
N% x 1.60 = 6   (I turned it from English to math)
Can't move n% back two places to make it a decimal so I will move the number I am multiplying by n% back two places instead.
Here is a sample to show you why it works.    .34 x 57 = 34 x .57

So
.016n = 6   (.016 is 1.60 decimal moved back two places)

Now divide both sides by .016
<u>.016</u>n   = <u>6
</u><u />.016     .016      n = 375%     

Why is the percent over 100% you might ask?

What % of 1.60 is 1.60  (Answer - all of it or 100%)
So What % of 1.60 is 6  - the number 6 being much bigger than 1.60, it is not surprising that the percent is more than 100.

What % of 1.60 is 1.60  - 100%
What %  of 1.60 is 3.20 - 200%   (notice that 3.20 is twice 1.60)
What % of 1.6 is 4.80   - 300%   (notice that 4.80 is three times 1.60)
What % of 1.6 is  6.40   - 400%  (notice that  6.40 is four times 1.60)
6 (the number in the problem) is just a bit less than 6.40  so 375% makes a lot a sense.
Hope you found this helpful.
