Answer: 25

Step-by-step explanation: Reading through the problem, we have 60% which can be written as the fraction 60/100, "of" means multiply, "what number" which we can call X, "is 15" equals 15.

$(\frac{60}{100}) (X) = 15$

If we simplify on the left side of the equation, we can reduce 60/100 to 3/5 so we now have as followed.

$\frac{3}{5}x = 15$

We can multiply both sides of the equation by 5 to get rid of the fraction and we have 3x = 75.

3x = 75

÷3 ÷3 ← divide both sides by 3

X = 25

Therefore, 60%of 25 is 15.

Hi there!

15 × 100 ÷ 60 = 25

So, 60% of 25 is 15.

Hope this helps!

Suppose that we will randomly select a sample of 106 measurements from a population having a mean equal to 19 and a standard dev

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

$z =\frac{18.45-19}{\frac{7}{\sqrt{106}}}= -0.809$

And if we use the normal standard distribution or excel we got:

$P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

$\mu = 19$ represent the mean

$\sigma = 7$ represent the standard deviation

$n = 106$ represent the sample size

The distribution for the sample size if we use the central limit theorem (n>30) is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu , \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

And for this case we want to find the following probability:

$P(\bar X< 18.45)$

And for this case we can use the z score formula given by:

$z =\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

And replacing we got:

$z =\frac{18.45-19}{\frac{7}{\sqrt{106}}}= -0.809$

And if we use the normal standard distribution or excel we got:

$P(z$

Whats the answer to x^3 y^0 z^-2

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

$\frac{x^3}{z^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

There are no given values, therefore we can't determine a definite answer. However, we are able to simplify the expression.

As we all know that any variable or number to the power of 0 is equal to 1. This means that $y^0 = 1$ .

We also know that a negative power can bring the variable down and make it a fraction. This means that $z^-^2=\frac{1}{z^2}$

Now that we got these two sorted we are able to write it in a simplified form.

Answer: $\frac{x^3}{z^2}$
