Okay what you could do is type 400 divided by 2/3 into a calculator, but on paper you would do 400 divided by 3, which is 150, then multiply 150 by 2 since it’s “2/3’s” of 400.
400 / 3 = 150,
150 x 2 = 300, so 300 is correct.

Use the figure to the right to find the value of PT. T is the midpoint of PQ.
o-na [289]

Answer:

PT = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Since T is the midpoint of PQ, then

PT = TQ , substitute values

4x + 5 = 8x - 7 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

5 = 4x - 7 ( add 7 to both sides )

12 = 4x ( divide both sides by 4 )

3 = x

Thus

PT = 4x + 5 = 4(3) + 5 = 12 + 5 = 17

liberstina [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

6)

k =  \frac{6}{4}  \\ k =  \frac{3}{2}

7)

\frac{ab}{mn}  =  \frac{bc}{no}  =  \frac{cd}{op}  =  \frac{da}{pm}

8)

y = 8 ( \frac{3}{2} ) \\ y = 12

z = 6 ( \frac{3}{2} ) \\ z = 9

9)

5k = 8 \\ k =  \frac{8}{5}  \\ x( \frac{8}{5}) = 32 \\ x = 20ft

The time that it takes a randomly selected job applicant to perform a certain task has a distribution that can be approximated b
storchak [24]

Answer:

A task time of 177.125s qualify individuals for such training.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

A distribution that can be approximated by a normal distribution with a mean value of 145 sec and a standard deviation of 25 sec, so \mu = 145, \sigma = 25.

The fastest 10% are to be given advanced training. What task times qualify individuals for such training?

This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.90.

Z has a pvalue of 0.90 when it is between 1.28 and 1.29. So we want to find X when Z = 1.285.

So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

1.285 = \frac{X - 145}{25}

X - 145 = 32.125

X = 177.125

A task time of 177.125s qualify individuals for such training.
