Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the difference in price= $8-$6 = $2
Now, find percentage decrease in the price of sandwich.
Percentage decrease= (difference in price/ original price) *100
=
*100
=
Percentage decrease=25%
(a) Average time to get to school
Average time (minutes) = Summation of the two means = mean time to walk to bus stop + mean time for the bust to get to school = 8+20 = 28 minutes
(b) Standard deviation of the whole trip to school
Standard deviation for the whole trip = Sqrt (Summation of variances)
Variance = Standard deviation ^2
Therefore,
Standard deviation for the whole trip = Sqrt (2^2+4^2) = Sqrt (20) = 4.47 minutes
(c) Probability that it will take more than 30 minutes to get to school
P(x>30) = 1-P(x=30)
Z(x=30) = (mean-30)/SD = (28-30)/4.47 ≈ -0.45
Now, P(x=30) = P(Z=-0.45) = 0.3264
Therefore,
P(X>30) = 1-P(X=30) = 1-0.3264 = 0.6736 = 67.36%
With actual average time to walk to the bus stop being 10 minutes;
(d) Average time to get to school
Actual average time to get to school = 10+20 = 30 minutes
(e) Standard deviation to get to school
Actual standard deviation = Previous standard deviation = 4.47 minutes. This is due to the fact that there are no changes with individual standard deviations.
(f) Probability that it will take more than 30 minutes to get to school
Z(x=30) = (mean - 30)/Sd = (30-30)/4.47 = 0/4.47 = 0
From Z table, P(x=30) = 0.5
And therefore, P(x>30) = 1- P(X=30) = 1- P(Z=0.0) = 1-0.5 = 0.5 = 50%
This is the concept of algebra, to solve the expression we proceed as follows;
cos 2x-cosx=0
cos 2x=cosx
but:
cos 2x+1=2(cos^2x)
thereore;
from:
cos 2x=cos x
adding 1 on both sides we get:
cos 2x+1=cos x+1
2(cos^2x)=cosx+1
suppose;
cos x=a
thus;
2a^2=a+1
a^2-1/2a-1/2=0
solving the above quadratic we get:
a=-0.5 and a=1
when a=-0.5
cosx=-0.5
x=120=2/3π
when x=1
cos x=1
x=0
the answer is:
x=0 or x=2/3π
