Answer:

The standard unemployment rate is of 0.0794 = 7.94%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard unemployment rate, as a proportion, is the number of unemployed people divided by the size of the labor force.

In this question:

Labor force: 189 million

Number of unemployed people: 15 million

What is the standard unemployment rate?

15/189 = 0.0794

The standard unemployment rate is of 0.0794 = 7.94%.

A company has made a rubber ball for $0. 02 per square foot. The company wants to spend a maximum of $1 each on a new ball.
Misha Larkins [42]

The diameter of the new rubber ball, to the nearest foot, must be D =  4.0 ft (in the case of the maximum cost).

<h3>How to find the diameter of the ball?</h3>

Remember that for a sphere of diameter D, the surface area is:

A = 4*pi*(D/2)^2

In this case, the cost is $0.02 per square foot, and the company wants to expend (at maximum) $1 per ball, so first we need to solve:

$0.02*A = $1

A = $1/$0.02 = 50

So the surface of the ball must be 50 square feet.

Then we solve:

50ft^2 = 4*3.14*(D/2)^2

D = 2*√(50 ft^2/(4*3.14)) = 4.0 ft

Assume that Santa has to deliver presents to almost 22 million kids an hour on the night before Christmas. What is his delivery
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

It's about 6,111 kids per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

60*60=3600

1 hour = 3600

hourly rate -> 22,000,000 kids/hr

secondly rate -> 22,000,000/3600 ≈ 6,111

secondly rate -> 6,111 kids/second

PLEASEE HELPP!!!<br> What is the mistake in setting up the quadratic formula?
timama [110]

Answer:

First, we bring the equation to the form ax²+bx+c=0, where a, b, and c are coefficients. Then, we plug these coefficients in the formula: (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a) . See examples of using the formula to solve a variety of equations.

What is the simplified value of the expression below?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

I dont know the experssion but I will give you steps to figure it out!

Step-by-step explanation:

Before you evaluate an algebraic expression, you need to simplify it. This will make all your calculations much easier. Here are the basic steps to follow to simplify an algebraic expression:

remove parentheses by multiplying factors

use exponent rules to remove parentheses in terms with exponents

combine like terms by adding coefficients

combine the constants

When simplifying an expression, the first thing to look for is whether you can clear any parentheses. Often, you can use the distributive property to clear parentheses, by multiplying the factors times the terms inside the parentheses. In this expression, we can use the distributive property to get rid of the first two sets of parentheses.

Now we can get rid of the parentheses in the term with the exponents by using the exponent rules we learned earlier. When a term with an exponent is raised to a power, we multiply the exponents For example, (x2)2 becomes x4.

The next step in simplifying is to look for like terms and combine them. The terms 5x and 15x are like terms, because they have the same variable raised to the same power

Finally, we look for any constants that we can combine.

Now our expression is simplified. Just one more thing -- usually we write an algebraic expression in a certain order. We start with the terms that have the largest exponents and work our way down to the constants. Using the commutative property of addition, we can rearrange the terms and put this expression in correct order, like this.
