Answer:$17.40

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very simple question. First since 70% is the amount of money removed, we do 100-70=30

30% is the price that remains. Change that into a fraction 30/100 and then multiply the original cost

30/100*58=17.4

The answer is $17.40

1/2 the weight of a brick +20= 1/3 the weight of a brick +30. What is the weight of the brick?

prisoha [69]

1/2x+20=1/3x+30
Subtract 20 on both sides
1/2x=1/3x+10
Subtract 1/3x on both sides
1/6x=10
Multiply by 6 on both sides
X=60

About 6% of the population has a particular genetic mutation. 600 people are randomly selected. find the standard deviation for

Rina8888 [55]

Assume a binomial distribution. Then the mean of the distribution is $np$ , where $n$ is the number of people taken in a sample and $p$ is the probability of the mutation occurring in any given person, and the standard deviation is $\sqrt{np(1-p)}$ . Then in this case, the standard deviation is $\sqrt{600(0.06)(0.94)}\approx5.82$ .
