To answer this question you must find the percentage of the children that read before bed and compare it to the adults bag read before bed’s percentage.
To do this, start by dividing the number of children that read before bed by the total number of children surveyed.
This leaves you with:
6/13= 0.4615

To find the actual percentage, multiply this result by 100.
0.4615 x 100 = 46.15
This percentage rounded is 46%

So, now you can compare the percentages. The percentage of children that read before bed is 46% and the percentage of adults that read before bed is 54%. So, the group with the greatest percentage was the adults.

I hope this helps!

Find the solution set of this system:
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

(−4, 12), (1, −3)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = −3x

x^2 −4 = y

so

x^2 −4 = −3x

x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0

(x + 4)(x - 1) = 0

x + 4 = 0; x = -4

x - 1 = 0; x = 1

when x = 1, y = -3(1) = -3

when x = -4, y = -3(-4) = 12

Answer

(-4 , 12), (1 , -3)

boyakko [2]

Answer:

What is the probability that you will finish this quiz in 23.84 minutes or less?

0.03593

Write your answer as a percentage with 2 decimals

= 3.59%

Step-by-step explanation:

The z score formula is given as:

z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation.

Mean = 26 minutes

Standard deviation = 1.2 minutes.

The probability that you will finish this quiz in 23.84 minutes or less(≤) is calculated as:

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = 23.84 - 26/1.2

z = -1.8

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x ≤ 23.84) = 0.03593

Converting to percentage

0.03593 × 100

= 3.593

Approximately to 2 decimal places = 3.59%
