Answer:

500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Y represent the number of parts in the shipment.

Number of Defective parts found in the shipment= 15

Percentage (%) of known Defective parts in the shipment = 3%

3% = 3/100

Therefore,

(3 ÷ 100) × Y = 15

We have

3Y ÷ 100 = 15

Cross multiply

3Y = 15 × 100

3Y = 1500

Y = 1500 ÷ 3

Y = 500

Therefore, the number of parts in the shipment is 500.

If 3% out of 100% are defective it would be 3 out of every 100, and 3 multiplied by 5 is 15. Then you multiply 100 by 5 and its 500 so out of 500 parts 15 would be defective

( $\frac{x1+x2}{2} , \frac{y1+y2}{2}$ )we need 3 equations
1. midpoint equation which is ( $\frac{x1+x2}{2} , \frac{y1+y2}{2}$ ) when you have 2 points

2. distance formula which is D= $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+(y2-y1)^{2}}$

3. area of trapezoid formula whhic is (b1+b2) times 1/2 times height

so

x is midpoint of B and C
B=11,10
c=19,6
x1=11
y1=10
x2=19
y2=6
midpoint=( $\frac{11+19}{2} , \frac{10+6}{2}$ )
midpoint=( $\frac{30}{2} , \frac{16}{2}$ )
midpoint= (15,8)

point x=(15,8)

y is midpoint of A and D
A=5,8
D=21,0
x1=5
y1=8
x2=21
y2=0
midpoint=( $\frac{5+21}{2} , \frac{8+0}{2}$ )
midpoint=( $\frac{26}{2} , \frac{8}{2}$ )
midpoint=(13,4)

Y=(13,4)

legnths of BC and XY
B=(11,10)
C=(19,6)
x1=11
y1=10
x2=19
y2=6
D= $\sqrt{(19-11)^{2}+(6-10)^{2}}$
D= $\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}$
D= $\sqrt{64+16}$
D= $\sqrt{80}$
D= $4 \sqrt{5}$
BC= $4 \sqrt{5}$

X=15,8
Y=(13,4)
x1=15
y1=8
x2=13
y2=4
D= $\sqrt{(13-15)^{2}+(4-8)^{2}}$
D= $\sqrt{(-2)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}$
D= $\sqrt{4+16}$
D= $\sqrt{20}$
D= $2 \sqrt{5}$
XY= $2 \sqrt{5}$

the thingummy is a trapezoid
we need to find AD and BC and XY
we already know that BC= $4 \sqrt{5}$ and XY= $2 \sqrt{5}$

AD distance
A=5,8
D=21,0
x1=5
y1=8
x2=21
y2=0
D= $\sqrt{(21-5)^{2}+(0-8)^{2}}$
D= $\sqrt{(16)^{2}+(-8)^{2}}$
D= $\sqrt{256+64}$
D= $\sqrt{320}$
D= $4 \sqrt{2}$
AD= $4 \sqrt{2}$

so we have
AD= $4 \sqrt{2}$
BC= $4 \sqrt{5}$
XY= $2 \sqrt{5}$

AD and BC are base1 and base 2
XY=height
so
(b1+b2) times 1/2 times height
( $4 \sqrt{2}+4 \sqrt{5}$ ) times 1/2 times $2 \sqrt{5}$ =
( $4 \sqrt{2}+4 \sqrt{5}$ ) times \sqrt{5} [/tex] =
$4 \sqrt{10}+4*5$ = $4 \sqrt{10}+20$ =80 $\sqrt{10}$ =252.982

X=(15,8)
Y=(13,4)
BC= $4 \sqrt{5}$
XY= $2 \sqrt{5}$
Area=80 $\sqrt{10}$ square unit or 252.982 square units

I need help. Anyone knows?

So first, find out the total amount of money you make in 3 months.

If you make 1200 dollars a month, then in 3 months, you can make 3600 dollars. This is because 1 month salary + 1 month salary + 1 month salary = 3 month salary, and 1 month salary = 1200. So 1200 + 1200 + 1200 = 3600.

Since you're saving 2/5 of that, the simplest method to do this is to divide by 5, to find 1/5 of 3600, then multiply by 2 to find 2/5.

3600/5 = 720

720 * 2 = 1440

So you can save $1440 in three months.
