First let's set a proportion. 8/100 = 24/x. Cross multiply and your equation is 8x = 2400. Then divide both sides by 8 and your answer is 300.

For which sample size (n) and sample proportion (p) can a normal curve be
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Option c.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the normal curve to approximate a sampling distribution:

For a sample size n and a proportion n, the normal curve can be used if:

np \geq 10 and n(1-p) \geq 10

Option a:

np = 35*0.8 = 28 > 10

n(1-p) = 35*0.2 = 7 < 10

So option a cannot be used.

Option b:

np = 65*0.9 = 58.5 > 10

n(1-p) = 65*0.1 = 6.5 < 10

So option b cannot be used.

Option c:

np = 65*0.8 = 52 > 10

n(1-p) = 65*0.2 = 13 > 10

So option c can be used, and is the answer

Option d:

np = 35*0.9 = 31.5 > 10

n(1-p) = 35*0.1 = 3.5 < 10

So option d cannot be used.

The answer is given by option c.

A person runs 1/8 mile in 1/64 hour.<br> The person's speed is (BLANK) miles per hour.
snow_tiger [21]

Answer: The person's speed is 8 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve we want to convert the \frac{1}{8} and \frac{1}{64} proportionally for the number of miles per hour. We know that multiplying a fraction by its reciprocal will equal 1. So let's do that for the value of the hour.

\frac{1}{64}×\frac{64}{1} =\frac{64}{64} =1

Since we multiplied that to the number of hours we must also do that for the number of miles.

\frac{1}{8}×\frac{64}{1} =\frac{64}{8} =8

The base of a rectangular prism is a square. The height of the prism is half the length of one edge of the base. The volume of t
ki77a [65]

Answer:

The prism is 3 by 3 by 1.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The prism has a length x and a width x. Since it is a square at the base both length and width are the same amount x. The height is "half the length of one edge of the base". Since the base is x, this makes it 1/2x.

The volume's prism is found using V = l*w*h. Substitute and simplify.

13.5 = x*x*1/2x

13.5 = 1/2 x^3

27 = x^3

3 = x

The prism is 3 by 3 by 1.5.
