Answer:

0.572

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

We have

n = 1090 of US adults

x = 623 selected from this population at random who consider the occupation to be one of great prestige

So we have that

The probability of X = x/n

= 623/1090

= 0.572

We conclude that 0.572 is the probability that a US adult selected at random thinks the occupation has great prestige.

Which number is one hundred thousand times larger than 5.6 x 102 ? A) 5.6 x 106 B) 5.6 x 107 C) 5.6 x 108 D) 5.6 x 109
Vladimir [108]
Hello! I believe you are referencing to powers of 10. In this case 10^2 is 100. 5.6 * 100 = 560. Okay. We are looking for the expression that will give the solution that is 100,000 times greater than 560. Okay. 100,000 * 560 is 56,000,000. That is 56 million. In this case, 10^7 is equivalent to 10,000,000, because there are 7 zeros behind the 1. 5.6 * 10^7 is 56,000,000. There. 56 million is 100,000x greater than 560. The answer is B.

One truck delivered 3 4/5 tons of potatoes to a warehouse while another truck delivered 1/2 ton less. How many tons of potatoes
Savatey [412]
3 4/5 + (3 4/5 - 1/2) =
19/5 + (19/5 - 1/2) =
19/5 + (38/10 - 5/10) =
19/5 + 33/10 =
38/10 + 33/10 =
71/10 which equals 7 1/10 tons <==
