9% decrease because 145-132=13
13=9% of 145

Hello,

What LacyMarie answered is right.

First Method :

145 pounds --> 100%
132 pounds --> x %

So x = 132*100/145 = 91 %

Now you just have to do 100 - 91 = 9 % decrease from 145 pounds to 132 pounds.

Second method :

145 - 132 = 13 right ?

145 pounds --> 100 %
13 pounds --> x %

So x = 13*100/145 = 9 %

The answer is 9 % decrease from 145 to 132.

I gave you 2 methods, do as you wish now !

Hope this helps !

Given:

The frequency distribution table.

To find:

The mean average score on a test.

Solution:

The frequency distribution table is

Marks (x_i)                   Frequency(f_i)                  f_ix_i

     x                                     a                               xa

     y                                     b                               yb

     z                                     c                               zc

  Sum                              a+b+c                          xa+yb+zc

Now, the mean average score on the test is

Mean=\dfrac{\sum f_ix_i}{\sum f_i}

Mean=\dfrac{xa+yb+zc}{a+b+c}

Therefore, the mean average score on the test is \dfrac{xa+yb+zc}{a+b+c}.

Compute the exact interest on $5,870 at 12% if the money is borrowed from June to December of the same year.
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The exact interest on $5,870 at 12% is $410.9

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information provided we know that

Principal amount: $5,870

Interest rate: 12% -> 0.12

Time: 7 months (From June to December)

When you know the principal amount, the rate, and the time, the amount of interest can be calculated by using the formula:

I=P\cdot r\cdot t

where P is principal, r is the rate of interest and t is the time in years.

We need to convert the 7 months into 1 year.

7 \>months \cdot \frac{1 year}{12 months} = \frac{7}{12} year

Now we can use the above formula

I=P\cdot r\cdot t=5870\cdot 0.12 \cdot \frac{7}{12} \\I = 0.12\cdot \frac{7\cdot \:5870}{12}\\I = 0.12\cdot \frac{20545}{6}\\I = \frac{2465.4}{6}\\I = 410.9

Therefore the exact interest on $5,870 at 12% is $410.9

A factory worker productivity is normally distributed. one worker produces an average of 75 units per day with a standard deviat
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Let Xi be the random variable representing the number of units the first worker produces in day i.
Define X = X1 + X2 + X3 + X4 + X5 as the random variable representing the number of units the
first worker produces during the entire week. It is easy to prove that X is normally distributed with mean µx = 5·75 = 375 and standard deviation σx = 20√5.
Similarly, define random variables Y1, Y2,...,Y5 representing the number of units produces by
the second worker during each of the five days and define Y = Y1 + Y2 + Y3 + Y4 + Y5. Again, Y is normally distributed with mean µy = 5·65 = 325 and standard deviation σy = 25√5. Of course, we assume that X and Y are independent. The problem asks for P(X > Y ) or in other words for P(X −Y > 0). It is a quite surprising fact that the random variable U = X−Y , the difference between X and Y , is also normally distributed with mean µU = µx−µy = 375−325 = 50 and standard deviation σU, where σ2 U = σ2 x+σ2 y = 400·5+625·5 = 1025·5 = 5125. It follows that σU = √5125. A reference to the above fact can be found online at http://mathworld.wolfram.com/NormalDifferenceDistribution.html.
Now everything reduces to finding P(U > 0) P(U > 0) = P(U −50 √5125 > − 50 √5125)≈ P(Z > −0.69843) ≈ 0.757546   .
