Answer: 30 percent of 20 is 6.

_______________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

_______________________________________________

(n/100) * 20 = 6 ?

Solve for "n" .

_______________________________________________

Divide each side of the equation by "20" :

{ (n/100) * 20 } / 20 = 6 / 20 ;

to get:

n/100 = 6/20 ;

↔ 6/20 = n/100 ; solve for "n" ;

Look at the denominators:

20 * ? = 100 ?

100/ 20 = ? ;

100/20 = 5 ;

So, 20 * " 5" = 100 ;

Then 6* 5 = "n" (for the numerator, "n"; in : "n /100" ) ;

→ 6 * 5 = 30 ;

→ n = 30 .

Katarina [22]

Answer: Area = 6m²

Smaller number = 16

Hours = 9.6 h

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.

1) w = x m 2) w = x + 1 m

l = x + 5 m l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m

A₁ = A₂

A = w*l

A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x

A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2

A₁ = A₂

x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2

5x - 3x = 2

2x = 2

x = 1

A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²

The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.

2 = x

5 40

5x = 80

x = 80/5 = 16

Two life insurance policies, each with a death benefit of 10,000 and a one-time premium of 500, are sold to a couple, one for ea

Kazeer [188]

Answer:896.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes excess premium over claims

$E\left ( x|husband survives\right )$ , There are two possibilities

(i)Only husband survives

This can be possible with a possibility of 0.01

Claims=10,000

Premium collected $=2\times 500=1000$

Thus x=1000-10,000=-9000

(ii)Both husband and wife survives

This can occur with a probability of 0.96

Here claims will be 0 as both survives

Premium taken=1000

thus x=1000

The probability that the husband survives is the sum of above cases

=0.96+0.01=0.97

Hence the desired conditional Expectation $E\left ( x|Husband survives\right ) =0.01\times \left ( -9000\right )+0.96\times \left ( 1000\right )=896.9$
