So from 1150 to 230 lbs of flour remaining...
The percentage decrease was by
percentage decrease = ((b-a)/b)*100
b is the original value
a is the other value
p= ((1150-230)/1150)*100
p = (920 /1150) * 100
p = (0.8) * 100
p = 80

The percentage decrease is 80% from 1150 to 230 lbs of flour.

Hope this helps :)

What is the area of the figure below?

fgiga [73]

Answer:

Option a 26 inches square

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the picture is a triangle with 3 sides as 10.8 inches, 5 inches and base =10+3 = 13 inches

The altitude for base 13 inches is shown as 4 inches.

We know that for any triangle area

=1/2 * base * height

Here base = 13 and height = 4

Hence area = 1/2 (13)(4) = 26 inches square

Answer is option a

---

This can be done in another way also

There are two triangles one with base 10 inches and height 3 inches and another with base 3 inches and height 4 inches

Area of combined figure = sum of area of two triangles

= 1/2 (10)(4) +1/2(3)(4) =

20+6

=26 square inches

How do I do this? Find the distance between the points given. Simplify all irrational answers.

belka [17]

The formula for finding the distance between points is √(x-x₁)²+(y-y₁)²
x=0, y=6, x₁=5, y₁=12
√(0-5)²+(6-12)²
√(-5)²+(-6)²
√25+36
√61 is irrational
7.81 points(rounded to nearest hundredth) is the distance between those two points.

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1-P(X$

And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function and we got:

$P(X=0) = (30C0) (0.05)^0 (1-0.05)^{30-0} =0.2146$

$P(X=1) = (30C1) (0.05)^1 (1-0.05)^{30-1} = 0.3389$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1-P(X$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=30, p=0.05)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Solution to the problem

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X \geq 2)$

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1-P(X$

And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function and we got:

$P(X=0) = (30C0) (0.05)^0 (1-0.05)^{30-0} =0.2146$

$P(X=1) = (30C1) (0.05)^1 (1-0.05)^{30-1} = 0.3389$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1-P(X$
