Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you are finding a percent of something, you need to move the decimal over to the left twice in the percentage. Like this:

20% = .20

Then, just multiply that by the number you are trying to find the percent of.

.20 x 120 = 24

Answer: 24

Step-by-step explanation: To find 20% of 120, first write 20% as a decimal by moving the decimal point 2 places to the left to get .20.

Next, the word "of" means multiply, so we multiply .20 by 120.

(.20) (120) = 24

Therefore, 20% of 120 is 24.

Answer:

99% of confidence intervals for mean age of ICU patients

(53.8920 , 61.2079)

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given sample mean $x^{-} = 57.55$

Given standard error is determined by

S.E = $\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} }$

Given data standard error = 1.42

99% of confidence intervals for mean is determined by

$(x^{-} - Z_{0.01} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + Z_{0.01} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } )$

$Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = Z_{\frac{0.01}{2} } = Z_{0.05} = 2.576$

$(x^{-} - 2.576 S.E , x^{-} + 2.576 S.E)$

$(57.55 - 2.576X 1.42 , 57.55+ 2.576 X1.42)$

(53.8920 , 61.2079)

Conclusion:-

99% of confidence intervals for mean is determined by

(53.8920 , 61.2079)

Elena surveyed her classmates to see how many like to make jewelry. When she asked 20 of her classmates, 50 percent said they li

nordsb [41]

10 students of Elena's classmates like to make jewellery.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total no.of classmates who liked the jewellery = x

Here, in the given problem, given she asked her classmates '20'. So, it clearly shows that total number of students/classmates = 20. Also, in that, 50% said like to make jewellery. Now find 'x' as below,

$x = 50 \% \text { of } 20$

$x = \frac{50}{100} \times 20$

$x = 10$

Hence, the total number of classmates who liked to make Jewellery = 10

Write the next whole number after 4444 in the base-five system.

<h3>Answer: 10000 in base 5</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

4+1 = 5 in base 10

But in base 5, the digit "5" does not exist.

The only digits in base five are: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4

This is similar to how in base ten, the digits span from 0 to 9 with the digit "10" not being a thing (rather it's the combination of the digits "1" and "0" put together).

----------------

Anyways let's go back to base 5.

Instead of writing 4+1 = 5, we'd write 4+1 = 10 in base 5. The first digit rolls back to a 0 and we involve a second digit of 1.

Think how 9+1 = 10 in base 10.

Similarly,

44+1 = 100 in base 5

444+1 = 1000 in base 5

4444+1 = 10000 in base 5

and so on.

----------------

Here are the first few numbers in base 5, when counting up by 1 each time.

0, 1, 2, 3, 4,

10, 11, 12, 13, 14,

20, 21, 22, 23, 24,

30, 31, 32, 33, 34,

40, 41, 42, 43, 44,

100, 101, 102, 103, ...

Notice each new row is when the pattern changes from what someone would expect in base 10. This is solely because the digit "5" isn't available in base 5.
