 why is 0.5%  not equal to 1/2?

Mathematics

It is not equal to 1/2 because .5% is indeed a percent, and therefore a fraction of 100. If you were to rewrite .5% as a fraction, you would write it as 5/100, which simplifies to 1/20, which is nowhere near 1/2. 50% or .5 would be equal to 1/2.

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

h. 36

Step-by-step explanation:

For a 68.26% confidence, z = 1.0.

Standard deviation (s) = 30 minutes

The sample size needed to assure that the sample mean does not differ from the true mean by more than 5 minutes is given by:

5\geq z*\frac{s}{\sqrt n}\\\sqrt n\geq 1*\frac{30}{5}\\n\geq 36

The sample size needed is 36.

f(- 6) = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(- 6) , substitute x = - 6 into f(x)

f(- 6) = 2(- 6)² - 2 = 2(36) - 2 = 72 - 2 = 70

Find (r-s) (t-s) + (s-r) (s-t) for all numbers r, s, and t. (a) 0 (b) 2 (c) 2rt (d) 2(s-r) (t-s) (e) 2(r-s) (t-s)
lyudmila [28]
Notice that the 2 expressions have 2 common terms.

(r-s) is just (s-r) times (-1)

similarly

(t-s) is just (s-t) times (-1)

this means that :

(r-s) (t-s) + (s-r) (s-t)=-(s-r)[-(s-t)]+(s-r) (s-t)

the 2 minuses in the first multiplication cancel each other so we have:

-(s-r)[-(s-t)]+(s-r) (s-t)=(s-r) (s-t)+(s-r) (s-t)=2(s-r) (s-t)

Answer:

d)<span>2(s-r) (t-s) </span>

Making your equation simplified to

1/2 + 1/2

which is equal to 1

1/2 + 1/2 = 1
