Given that a:b=8:5 b:c=3:4 find the ratio a:b:c

1 answer:

4 0

A:b = 8:5 b:c = 3:4
since both sides have b. make b the same. multiply the left by the right side b value of 3 and multiply the right by the left side b value of 5.
3(a:b) and 5(b:c)
3 (8:5) and 5(3:4)
24:15 15:20
now that both sides have the same b value
a:b:c = 24:15:20

Find the value of 40% of 1KM (in m)

labwork [276]

40% of 1 km in meters is 400 meters

<h3>What is percentage :</h3>

Percentage simply means per 100. Percentage can be express as decimal or fraction.

For example 25% of 80 can be found as follows:

25 / 100 × 80 = 2000 / 100 = 20

From the example, 25% of 80 is 20 .

Therefore, 40% of 1 km(m) can be found as follows:

Let's convert km to metres.

1000m = 1km

40% of 1000

40 / 100 × 1000 = 40000 / 100 = 400metres

Therefore, 40% of 1 km in meters is 400 meters

What's the circumference of a<br> circle with a diameter of 9 inches?<br> Use 3.14 for n.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

28.26 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius = (1/2) diameter

Radius = (1/2)(9)

Radius = 4.5 in

Circumference = 2πr

Circumference = 2(3.14)(4.5)

Circumference = 28.26 in

According to the 2011 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation, there were over 71 million wildif

suter [353]

Answer:

The probability that between 79% and 81%of the 500 sampled wildlife watchers actively observed mammals in 2011 is P=0.412.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the population proportion π=0.8, according to the 2011 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation.

If we take a sample from this population, and assuming the proportion is correct, it is expected that the sample's proportion to be equal to the population's proportion.

The standard deviation of the sample is equal to:

$\sigma_s=\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{N}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.8*0.2}{500}}=0.018$

With the mean and the standard deviaion of the sample, we can calculate the z-value for 0.79 and 0.81:

$z=\frac{p-\pi}{\sigma}=\frac{0.79-0.80}{0.018} =\frac{-0.01}{0.018} = -0.55\\\\z=\frac{p-\pi}{\sigma}=\frac{0.81-0.80}{0.018} =\frac{0.01}{0.018} = 0.55$

Then, the probability that between 79% and 81%of the 500 sampled wildlife watchers actively observed mammals in 2011 is:

$P(0.79$
