Answer:

The correct answer is 0.486.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of employees at the home office of Gibraltar Insurance Company is 270 + 340 = 610

Number of employees on flex time are 350, out of which 170 are men and 180 are women.

We need to find the probability that out of the given employees, a randomly chosen one is on flex time and is a man.

Favorable outcomes are 170 and total outcome is 350.

Thus the probability is given by \frac{170}{350} = 0.4857≈ 0.486

~~~~~x^2 -2 = 47\\\\\implies  x^2 = 47 +2 \\\\\implies x^2 = 49\\\\\implies x = \pm\sqrt{49}\\\\\implies x = \pm 7\\\\\text{Hence, }~ x = 7,~~ x = -7

Okay I am trying to help my son. Can someone please help me and explain adding mixed numbers 4 3/10+6 9/10
polet [3.4K]

So when you add mixed numbers, you must convert it into fractions. The four would become part of the fraction and be 43/10 and the six becomes part of the fraction which is 69/10. You can find this by multiplying 4 by the denominator and then adding it to the numerator (4 Times 10 = 40 + 3 = 43/10) and same for the other one. The answer is 112/10, simplify to 11 1/5.

A volleyball of radius 13 inches fits exactly in a cylinder with the same radius. inside the container there is empty space not
asambeis [7]

Volume of Sphere is V=(4/3)*PI*r^3

The radius of the volleyball is 13 inches

<span>So V=(4/3) * 3.14 * 13^3 =  9198 cubic inches</span>

 

Volume of a cylinder is V=pi * r^2 *h

Since they say the ball fits perfectly

The radius is 13 and the height is 26 ( the diameter of the ball)

So V=3.14 * 13^2 * 26 = 13,797 cubic inches

 

13797 – 9198 = 4,599 cubic inches of empty space

if there are 300 calories in 100 g of a certain food, how many calories are there in a 30 g portion of food​
kap26 [50]

Answer:

90 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Calories : quantity of food

there are 300 calories in 100 g of a certain food

300 calories : 100 g food

how many calories are there in a 30 g portion of food​

Let x = number of calories

x calories : 30 g food

Equate both ratios

300 calories : 100 g food = x calories : 30 g food

300/100 = x/30

300 * 30 = 100 * x

9000 = 100x

x = 9000/100

x = 90

x = number of calories = 90 calories
