There was a 66 \frac{2}{3}% increase from Sari's sales from November to December. 

To find the percentage increase in her sales, we must first find the amount her sales increased. We can do that by subtracting the greeting cards sold in November from the number of greeting cards sold in December. Substituting values and simplifying, we get that she sold 200 more greeting cards in December.

To find what percent increase this is, we must find what percent 200 is of the number of greeting cards sold in November. We can do this by dividing 200 by the number of cards sold in November (300), and then multiplying by 100 (to make it a percent). Doing this, we get \frac{2}{3} * 100 which gives us our answer of 66 \frac{2}{3}%.

A scientist need 10 L of a 20% acid solution for an experiment where she had only a 5% solution and a 40% solution to the neares
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Amount of 5% solution = 5.7 Litres

Amount of 40% solution = 4.3 Litres

Step-by-step explanation:

First, of all, let x be the amount of 5% solution used

Since, the scientist needs 10 L of solution, then;

Let 10 - x be the amount of 40% solution used

Now, we are told that she needs 10 L of a 20% acid solution.

This means that;

5%x + 40%(10 - x) = 20%(10).

Simplifying this gives;

0.05x + 0.40(10 - x) = 0.20 × 10

Expanding the bracket gives;

0.05x + 4 - 0.4x = 2

0.4x - 0.05x = 4 - 2

0.35x = 2

x = 2/0.35

x ≈ 5.7 litres

Thus, she will need to mix 5.7 liters of the 5% solution.

Since 10 - x be the amount of 40% solution used , then;

the amount of 40% solution = 10 - 5.7 = 4.3 litres

Uh can someone please help? please get it right and try to explain how
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

From least likely to most likely:

Colorado Bronze wins

I Am Pat wins

Good Legs Lance wins

Step-by-step explanation:

Converting all probabilities to the same type may be easier to visualize and see the chances. Let's convert each chance to percentage:

P(I Am Pat wins) = 3/10 = <u>30%</u>

P(Good Legs Lance wins) = 0.6 = <u>60%</u>

P(Colorado Bronze wins) = 10%= <u>10%</u>

Thus, the desired order is:

Colorado Bronze wins

I Am Pat wins

Good Legs Lance wins

matrenka [14]

Answer:

  (d)  0.8736

Step-by-step explanation:

Unless you have a table of the normal distribution available, this is a calculator problem. Your calculator, or any spreadsheet, can tell you the probability is ...

  P(-1.23 ≤ z ≤ 2.12) ≈ 0.8736
