Multiply 120 by .2 to get 24

20% of 120 is 24.

To find this answer, you need to use the percentage formula (is over of equals the percentage over 100, is/of = p/100).

Plug in the known numbers. You know you need 20%, so plug 20 into the percentage place.

is/of = 20/100

You know the "of," which is 120, so plug that in.

is/120 = 20/100

You don't know the "is," so to find it you need to multiply cross multiply 120 by 20. Then you need to divide your answer by 100 to find your missing value (is).

120 * 20 = 2,400
2,400 / 100 = 24

DENIUS [597]
Let BS be the event that the patient survives bypass surgery. Let H be the event that the heart damage will heal. Then P(BS) = 0.60, and also we have a conditional probability: GIVEN that the patient survives, the probability that the heart damage will heal is 0.5, that is P(H|BS) = 0.5 We want to know P(BS and H). Using the formula of the conditional probability: P(H and BS) = P(H|BS)·P(BS) = (0.6)(0.5) = 0.3

The sum of two numbers is "-1" One number is 12 more than the other one. Find the numbers.
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

x = 5.5

y = - 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one of the numbers = x

Let the other number = y

x + y = - 1

x = y + 12    Put the second equation into the first one

y + 12 + y = - 1       Subtract 12 from both sides

y + y = - 1 - 12        Combine both left and right sides

2y = - 13                Divide by 2

2y/2 = - 13/1

y = - 6.5

x + y = - 1

x - 6.5 = - 1            Add 6.5 to both sides

x = 5.5

What is the order pair for y=1/3x
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y is always (1/3) of x.

Thus, if x = 0, y = 0; if x = 1, y = (1/3)(1) = 1/3, and so on.  The corresponding ordered pairs are (0, 0), (1, 1/3), (-2, -2/3)
