Answer:

2/5x=25

So what you do is because you want to get x by itself you wanna divide the fraction (2/5) over itself and then divide 25/(2/5) which will equal x.

X=25/(2/5)

then you plug in 25/(2/5) and it equals 62.5

or 62 1/2

X=62.5

Answer:

x = - $\frac{125}{2}$ = - 62.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{2}{5}$ x = - 25

Multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction

2x = - 125 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - $\frac{125}{2}$ = - 62.5

A certain motorcycle manufacturer has been building motorcycles for 98 years. Over that period, production has increased steadil

Reika [66]

Answer: The fraction would be 0.53.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

$r(t)=A.(1.05)^t$

where, A is the constant initial production rate

t is the time.

For 98 years, the production rate in motorcycles per year would be

$r(98)=A.(1.05)^{98}\\\\r(98)=A.119.27$

For 13 years, the production rate in motorcycles per year would be

$r(98-13)=r(85)=A.(1.05)^{85}\\\\r(85)=A.63.25$

So, the fraction of their total production was built during the last 13 years would be

$\dfrac{r(85)}{r(98)}=\dfrac{63.25}{119.27}=0.53$

Hence, the fraction would be 0.53.

If the probability that a randomly chosen college student takes statistics is 0.84, then what is the probability that a randomly

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Probability that a randomly chosen college student does not take statistics is 0.16 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that probability that a randomly chosen college student takes statistics is 0.84 .

Let the above probability that a randomly chosen college student takes statistics = P(A) = 0.84

<em> Now, probability that a randomly chosen college student does not take statistics is given by = 1 - Probability that a randomly chosen college student takes statistics = 1 - P(A) </em>

So, required probability = 1 - 0.84 = 0.16 .
