Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

.25x

100% - 75% = 25%

The clearance price is 25% of the price of the lawn mower.

Write 25% as a decimal and multiply.

Answer:

0.25x

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of a lawn mower is x dollars.

The store is having a 75% end of summer clearance sale.

So, clearance rate = 100% - 75 % = 25 %

So,  the clearance price of the mower = 25\% \times x

                                                                = \frac{25}{100} \times x

                                                                = 0.25x

So, expression can be used to find the clearance price of the mower is 0.25x

To make a specific orange color, a painter uses 14 of a can of red paint and 12 of a can of yellow paint. Fill in each statement
Otrada [13]

Answer:  For every 1 can of red paint, the number of yellow paints used by the painter is \frac{6}{7} and

There are approximately 29 cans of yellow paints for 34 cans of red paints.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of cans of red paint = 14

Number of cans of yellow paint = 12

According to question, we have to find that for every 1 can of red paint the painter uses what number of yellow paints;

Since the ratio of red paint to yellow paint is given by

14:12\\\\7:6\\\\1:\frac{6}{7}

So, for every 1 can of red paint, the number of yellow paints used by the painter is \frac{6}{7}

Similarly,

If Number of can of red paint is used = 34

So, Number of cans of yellow paint will be

\frac{6}{7}\times 34\\\\=\frac{6\times 34}{7}\\\\=29\ approx.

Hence, there are approximately 29 cans of yellow paints for 34 cans of red paints.

Out of 100 people sampled, 42 had kids. Based on this, construct a 99% confidence interval for the true population proportion of
maksim [4K]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the true population proportion of people with kids is (0.293, 0.547).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

Out of 100 people sampled, 42 had kids.

This means that n = 100, \pi = \frac{42}{100} = 0.42

99% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.01, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995, so Z = 2.575.  

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.42 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{100}} = 0.293

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.42 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{100}} = 0.547

The 99% confidence interval for the true population proportion of people with kids is (0.293, 0.547).

A town has three roads that form an obtuse triangle. James wants to set up a refreshment stand so that the shortest distance fro
GarryVolchara [31]
He should set up the refreshment stand on the incenter of the obtuse triangle. The incenter of a triangle is described as the intersection between the angle bisectors of a triangle. The inradius are the line segments from the incenter of the triangle to each of the three sides of the triangle which are all equal. The inradius is depicted as the radius of an inscribed circle in the triangle. Therefore, the shortest equal distance from his stand to each road is C. on the incenter.
