You can set up an equation based off of the information given:

x represents the unknown number

3/5x - 1 = 23

add 1 to both sides to isolate the 3/5x

3/5x = 24

divide both sides by 3/5 to solve for x

x = 120/3

120/3 can be simplified into 40

Final answer: x = 40

The operations manager of a large production plant would like to estimate the mean amount of time a worker takes to assemble a n
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

(15,595, 16,805)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to:

m = 16.2, sd = 3.75, n = 150

m is the mean, sd is the standard deviation and n is the sample size.

the degree of freedom would be:

n - 1 = 150 - 1 = 149

df = 149

at 95% confidence level the t is:

alpha = 1 - 95% = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

alpha / 2 = 0.05 / 2 = 0.025

now well for t alpha / 2 (0.025) and df (149) = t = 1,976

the margin of error = E = t * sd / (n ^ (1/2))

replacing:

E = 1,976 * 3.75 / (150 ^ (1/2))

E = 0.605

The 95% confidence interval estimate of the popilation mean is:

m - E <u <m + E

16.2 - 0.605 <u <16.2 + 0.605

15,595 <u <16,805

5x+18/8 = x/4 <br> Solve for x
ollegr [7]

Answer: x= -9/19

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+18/8=x/4

5x+ 9/4=x/4

5x+9/4-9/4=x/4-9/4

5x= x-9/4

5x(4)=x-9/4(4)

20x=x-9

20x-x=x-9-x

19x=-9

19x/19=-9/19

x=-9/19

How to find 62%of $400​
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

248

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution for What is 400 percent of 62:

400 percent *62 =

(400:100)*62 =

(400*62):100 =

24800:100 = 248

Now we have: 400 percent of 62 = 248

Question: What is 400 percent of 62?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 62.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1 above,$62=100\%.

Step 4: Similarly, x=400\%.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

62=100\%(1).

x=400\%(2).

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

\frac{62}{x}=\frac{100\%}{400\%}

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

\frac{x}{62}=\frac{400}{100}

\Rightarrow x=248

Therefore, 400 of 62 is 248
