Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
You're nearly there. Just some more steps.
557 * x = 594 tells us
x = 594 / 557 (divide both sides by 557)
x ≈ 1.066427
When we've found this number we must realise the following:
the '1' in this answer is the 100% the car fixing costs (without taxes)
the '0.66427' stands for the tax rate.
To find the tax rate we multiply 0.66427 by 100, which gives us:
0.66427 * 100 = 6.6427 ≈ 7
So, rounded to the nearest %, the tax rate is 7%
<span>The median would be preferred over the mean in such scenarios because the median will lessen the impact of the outliers that fall within the "tail" of the skew. Therefore, if a curve is normally distributed, that is to say that data is normally distributed, there will be two tails, each with approximately equal proportions of outliers. Outliers in this case being more extreme numbers, and are based on your determination depending on how you are using the data. If data is skewed there is one tail, and therefore it may be an inaccurate measure of central tendency if you use the mean of the numbers. Thinking of this visually. In positively skewed data where there is a "tail" towards the right and a "peak" towards the left, the median will be placed more in the "peak", whereas the mean will be placed more towards the "tail", making it a poorer measure of central tendency, or the center of the data.</span>
The answer is 7.76 because the fraction written as a decimal would be 7.76 and not any of the other choices they want you to find which number is equal to the fraction number
Answer:
A) x = 2, x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 14 = 9x
Subtract 9x from each side
x^2-9x + 14 = 9x-9x
x^2-9x + 14 = 0
What 2 numbers multiply to 14 and add to -9
-7*-2 = 14
-7+-2 = -9
(x-7)(x-2) = 0
Using the zero product property
x-7 = 0 x-2 =0
x=7 x=2
