Answer:

The percent increase was 48.7.

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>absolute</em> increase in enrollment is 1084 - 729 = 355. This corresponds to a <em>relative</em> increase of 355/729=0.487 (relative to Aug 2017). The proportion 0.487, expressed in percent: 48.7%

Depending on your current method to exercise, you could solve this using the proportionality method: 355/729 = x/100, then cross-multiply and solve for x. Same thing.

The high school football team has a fundraiser selling t-shirts. It cost the team an initial $150 for the shirt order plus an ad
Alchen [17]

Answer:

P(x)=8x-150

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the number of shirts

we know that

The equation of the cost is equal to

C(x)=2x+150

The equation of the sell is equal to

S(x)=10x

The equation of the profit is equal to

P(x)=S(x)-C(x)

substitute the values

P(x)=10x-(2x+150)=8x-150

A battery has a lifetime that is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 600 hours and a standard deviation of 50 hour
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

A. Your battery is likely defective since such poor performance is extremely unlikely.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

If X is more than two standard deviations from the mean, it is considered an unlikely outcome.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 600, \sigma = 50

Which of the following conclusions is the most appropriate given this information?

Lasted 400 hours, so X = 400.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{400 - 600}{50}

Z = -4

4 standard deviations from the mean, so unlikely.

So the correct answer is:

A. Your battery is likely defective since such poor performance is extremely unlikely.
