<span>the sale price is 10%

so you pay 90% of the actual price...</span><span>90% = .9

.9*(actual) = .9 *(3.99) = $3.59 </span><span>sale price is 3.99 -0.40 = $3.59 </span>

Answer:

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a high school degree as their highest educational level, or they do not. The probability of an adult having it is independent of any other adult. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

30.4% of U.S. adults 25 years old or older have a high school degree as their highest educational level.

This means that $p = 0.304$

100 such adults

This means that $n = 100$

Determine the probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is a. Exactly 32

This is P(X = 32).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 32) = C_{100,32}.(0.304)^{32}.(0.696)^{68} = 0.0803$

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.

Can someone help with this?

Bumek [7]

4.5/3 = x/5

then:

x = 5 * 4.5 / 3 = 15/2 = 7.5

What is the square root of 864

skelet666 [1.2K]

There are two ways to evaluate the square root of 864: using a calculator, and simplifying the root.

The first method is simplifying the root. While this doesn't give you an exact value, it reduces the number inside the root.

Find the prime factorization of 864:

$\sqrt{864} = \sqrt{2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 3}$

Take any number that is repeated twice in the square root, and move it outside of the root:

$\sqrt{864} = \sqrt{(2 \cdot 2) \cdot (2 \cdot 2) \cdot 2 \cdot (3 \cdot 3) \cdot 3}$

$\sqrt{2 \cdot 2} = \sqrt{4} = 2$

$\sqrt{3 \cdot 3} = \sqrt{9} = 3$

$\sqrt{(2 \cdot 2) \cdot (2 \cdot 2) \cdot 2 \cdot (3 \cdot 3) \cdot 3} = \sqrt{(4) \cdot (4) \cdot 2 \cdot (9) \cdot 3}$

$\sqrt{(4) \cdot (4) \cdot 2 \cdot (9) \cdot 3} = (2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3) \sqrt{2 \cdot 3} = \boxed{12 \sqrt{6}}$

The simplified form of √864 will be 12√6.

The second method is evaluating the root. Using a calculator, we can find the exact value of √864.

Plugged into a calculator and rounded to the nearest hundredths value, √864 is equal to 29.39. Because square roots can be negative or positive when evaluated, this means that √864 is equal to ±29.39.
