Lake Lopez had a water depth at its dam of 515 inches at the beginning of the year. During the rainy season, the water depth inc

reased by 82 inches. Evaporation during a hot summer decreased the depth by 119 inches. What was the water depth at the end of the summer?

Beginning of the year= 515 inches

-

<u>Rain increases the water depth:</u>

After rainy season = 515 + 82 = 597 inches

-

<u>Evaporation decreases the water depth:</u>

After Hot Summer = 597 - 119 = 478 inches

-

Answer: 478 inches

This question states that Lake Lopez began at a depth of 515 inches, then increased by 82 inches, then decreased by 119 inches. To model this, we will use addition for the increase and subtraction for the decrease; this will signify a positive/negative change in the depth. This can be modeled by the expression below:

515 + 82 - 119

597 - 119

478

Therefore, the water depth at the end of the summer was 478 inches.

Hope this helps!

Eight percent of all college graduates hired by companies stay with the same company for more than five years. The probability,
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

0.1662 = 16.62% probability that exactly 2 will stay with the same company for more than five years

Step-by-step explanation:

For each graduate, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they stay for the same company for more than five years, or they do not. Graduates are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

Eight percent of all college graduates hired by companies stay with the same company for more than five years.

This means that p = 0.08

Sample of 11 college graduates:

This means that n = 11

The probability, rounded to four decimal places, that in a random sample of 11 such college graduates hired recently by companies, exactly 2 will stay with the same company for more than five years is: the absolute tolerance is +-0.0001

The tolerance means that the answer is rounded to four decimal places.

The probability is P(X = 2). So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{11,2}.(0.08)^{2}.(0.92)^{11} = 0.1662

0.1662 = 16.62% probability that exactly 2 will stay with the same company for more than five years

Okay, so the open sentence is basically telling you that -2 is less than or equal to n+4, and n+4 is less than or equal to seven. Do you know where to go from there?

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

60% is the answer 60/100

Step-by-step explanation:

30:50 is the ratio

60% is the percentage

as 60/100 is = 30:50

if it was 30% then the gallons held by her car would be 100

because it was 50 we just multiply the top to make a percentage equal to 30 x 2 = 60.

As 50 x 2 =100

= 60/100
