Answer:

The probability that one of the minority candidates is hired is P;

P = Nm/Nt

P = 2/5 = 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of Candidates on the list Nt= 5

Number of minority candidates on the list Nm= 2

The probability that one of the minority candidates is hired is P;

P = Nm/Nt

P = 2/5 = 0.4

1.06(12.95+x)=31.27 solve for x
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

<h2>x = 16.55</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

1.06(12.95 + x) = 31.27

<u>Multiply the terms in the bracket</u>

That's

13.727 + 1.06x = 31.27

<u>Subtract 13.727 from both sides</u>

That's

13.727 - 13.727 + 1.06x = 31.27 - 13.727

1.06x = 17.543

<u>Divide both sides by 1.06</u>

That's

\frac{1.06x}{1.06}  =  \frac{17.543}{1.06}  \\ x =  \frac{17.543}{1.06}

We have the final answer as

<h3>x = 16.55</h3>

Hope this helps you

One survey estimates that,on average, the retail value of a mid sized car decreases by8% annually.if the retail value of a car i
Scrat [10]
Percentage by which the average value of mid sized car decreases each year = 8%
Retail value of a car today = v dollars
Amount of decrease in the value of the car after 1 year = (8/100) * v
                                                                                         = 2v/25 dollars
Then
The equation that represents the value of the car after 1 year = v - (2v/25) dollars
                                                                                                   = (25v - 2v)/25 dollars
                                                                                                   = 23v/25 dollars
So following this expression the value of the mid sized car can be easily determined after 1 year. I hope this is the answer you were looking for and the procedure is also clear to you.

How would I simplify the equation 5u^6x^2+20wx/15x^4
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The simplified form is 5u^6x^2+\frac{4w x^{-3}}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify the expression given to use, we need to reduce the given expression in its simplest form. There should not be any possibility for the further cancelling out of the division terms, if any.

Now the expression that is given to us is:

5u^6x^2+\frac{20wx}{15x^4}\\

Here we will simplify it, as follows:

5u^6x^2+\frac{20wx}{15x^4}\\=5u^6x^2+\frac{4w}{3x^3}\\=5u^6x^2+\frac{4w x^{-3}}{3}

So this is the required simplified form.
