The price of the computer program is 50 dollars.Since, it is on sale, the current price is now 37.50 dollars.Base on the given choices or options, let's find out which is correct.But, first let's solve this to be able to identify which one is the correct answer:=> 37.50 dollars / 50 dollars = 0.75=> 0.75 * 100% = 75%=> 100% - 75% = 25%.<span>Thus, the discount percentage is 25% and the current price is 75%.</span>

If you would like to know what is the percent decrease, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x% of $50 is $37.50
x% * 50 = 37.50
x/100 * 50 = 37.50     /*100/50
x = 37.50 * 100 / 50
x = 75%

100% - 75% = 25%

The correct result would be D. 25%.

A recent survey showed that in a sample of 100 elementary school teachers, 15 were single. In a sample of 180 high school teache
trapecia [35]

Answer:

By using hypothesis test at α = 0.01, we cannot conclude that the proportion of high school teachers who were single greater than the proportion of elementary teachers who were single

Step-by-step explanation:

let p1  be the proportion of elementary teachers who were single

let p2 be the proportion of high school teachers who were single

Then, the null and alternative hypotheses are:

H_{0}: p2=p1

H_{a}: p2>p1

We need to calculate the test statistic of the sample proportion for elementary teachers who were single.

It can be calculated as follows:

\frac{p(s)-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{N} } } where

  • p(s) is the sample proportion of high school teachers who were single (\frac{36}{180} =0.2)
  • p is the proportion of elementary teachers who were single (\frac{15}{100} =0.15)
  • N is the sample size (180)

Using the numbers, we get

\frac{0.2-0.15}{\sqrt{\frac{0.15*0.85}{180} } } ≈ 1.88

Using z-table, corresponding  P-Value is ≈0.03

Since 0.03>0.01 we fail to reject the null hypothesis. (The result is not significant at α = 0.01)

Rationalize the denominator of the fraction: √5/√8 - √3
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The editor must have brackets put around the denominator when there are 2 terms.

That means I think the question is (√5) / (√8 - √3). If this is incorrect, leave a note.

To rationalize the denominator, you must multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate  (√8 + √3).

Solution

√5 *  (√8 - √3) /  ( (√8 - √3) *  (√8 + √3)  )  

I don't think there is any point in removing the brackets in the numerator. Just leave it.

The denominator is a different matter.

denominator = ( (√8 - √3) *  (√8 + √3)  )

√8 * √8 = 8

√8 * √3 = √24

- √3 * √8 = - √24

-√3 * √3 = - 3

Take a close look at the 2 middle terms. They cancel out because one of them is plus and the other minus.

What you are left with is 8 - 3 = 5

So the final answer is

√5 *  (√8 - √3)

The prime factorization of 236
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The prime factors are: 2 x 2 x 59

or Written in exponential form: 2^2 x 59^1

Step-by-step explanation:

236 ÷ 2 = 118 - No remainder! 2 is one of the factors

118 ÷ 2 = 59 - No remainder! 2 is one of the factors

59 ÷ 59 = 1 - No remainder! 59 is one of the factors

together we have the factors 2 x 2 x 59 = 236
