Answer:

\$17,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> that month's sales

y----> October earnings

we know that

8\%=8/100=0.08

y=0.08x+1,400 -----> equation A

y=2,800 -----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B and solve for x

2,800=0.08x+1,400

0.08x=2,800-1,400

x=1,400/0.08

x=\$17,500

Give one example of when you would use the friendly numbers strategy to subtract. Explain why.

In the <span>addition process</span> this usually involves:

<span><span>rounding numbers up to the nearest multiple of 10 or 100 </span>subtracting the extras that were added at the end.</span>

In the subtraction process this usually involves subtracting too much and completing the calculation by putting some back.

2^5 over 4 = 2^5 over 2a = 2^b = c What are a b and c
likoan [24]

Answer:

a = 2

b = 3

c = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>2^5/4</em>=<em>2^5/2a</em>=<em>2^b</em>=<em>c</em>

      <em>2^5/4</em>, 2^5 = 32, 32/4 = 8

             so c, being what all of this is equal to, is 8

      <em>2^5/2a</em>, 2*2=4

              so a = 2

      <em>2^b </em>= 8, ∛8 =  3

              so b = 3

Hope my explanation makes sense :)

Eric throws a biased coin 10 times. He gets 3 tails. Sue throw the same coin 50 times. She gets 20 tails. Aadi is going to throw
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

(1) The correct option is (A).

(2) The probability that Aadi will get Tails is \frac{2}{5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that:

  • Eric throws a biased coin 10 times. He gets 3 tails.
  • Sue throw the same coin 50 times. She gets 20 tails.

The probability of tail in both cases is:

  • P(\text{Tail})=\frac{3}{10}
  • P(\text{Tail})=\frac{20}{50}=\frac{2}{5}

(1)

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

In this case we need to compute the proportion of tails.

Then according to the Central limit theorem, Sue's estimate is best because she throws it <em>n = </em>50 > 30 times.

Thus, the correct option is (A).

(2)

As explained in the first part that Sue's estimate is best for getting a tail, the probability that Aadi will get Tails when he tosses the coin once is:

P(\text{Tail})=\frac{20}{50}=\frac{2}{5}

Thus, the probability that Aadi will get Tails is \frac{2}{5}.
