If you would like to know what was the percent decrease in price, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x% of $299.99 is $180.55
x% * 299.99 = 180.55
x/100 * 299.99 = 180.55
x = 180.55 * 100 / 299.99
x = 60.19%

100% - 60.19% = 39.81%

The correct result would be 39.81%.

A) y=1/2(2.5)^t/6 is the only growth function, the other two are for decay as the multipliers in the brackets are less than 1, thus indicating decay
C) 20(1.2)^4= 41 views
D) A and C as the multipliers in the brackets are less than 1, thus indicating decay

the monthly budget for the front of the house is $18,000. you spent 9% of the budget on fresh flowers. How much did you spend on
Kipish [7]

To find how much was spent on fresh flowers, we just multiply 9% to the monthly budget, which is $18,000.

To multiply a percent to a number, we must first turn the percent into a decimal. Just divide the percent by 100 to get the decimal form. 9% is 0.09.

0.09 \times 18000 = 1620

$1620 was spent on fresh flowers (that's quite a lot of money!)

he weight of male babies less than months old in the United States is normally distributed with mean pounds and standard deviati
Degger [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is

X: Weight of a male baby (pounds)

X~N(μ;σ²)

μ= 11.5 pounds

σ= 2.7 pounds

a) Find the 81st percentile of the baby weights.

This percentile is the value that separates the bottom 81% of the distribution from the top 19%

P(X≤x₁)= 0.81

For this you have to use the standard normal distribution. First you have to look the 81st percentile under the Z distribution and then "translate" it to a value of the variable X using the formula Z= (X- μ)/σ

P(Z≤z₁)= 0.81

z₁= 0.878

z₁= (x₁- μ)/σ

z₁*σ= x₁- μ

(z₁*σ) + μ= x₁

x₁= (z₁*σ) + μ

x₁= (2.7*0.878)+11.5

x₁= 13.8706 pounds

b) Find the 10th percentile of the baby weights.

P(X≤x₂)= 0.10

P(Z≤z₂)= 0.10

z₂= -1.282

z₂= (x₂- μ)/σ

z₂*σ= x₂- μ

(z₂*σ) + μ= x₂

x₂= (z₂*σ) + μ

x₂= (2.7*-1.282)+11.5

x₂= 8.0386 pounds

c) Find the first quartile of the baby weights.

P(X≤x₃)= 0.25

P(Z≤z₃)= 0.25

z₃= -0.674

z₃= (x₃- μ)/σ

z₃*σ= x₃- μ

(z₃*σ) + μ= x₃

x₃= (z₃*σ) + μ

x₃= (2.7*-0.674)+11.5

x₃= 9.6802 pounds

I hope this helps!
