Let's make an equation.

19,000x=24,320

This equation shows the percentage increase, which is x. Once we have x, we need to subtract 1 from it since in the equation the 1 shows that it's increeasing. All we need to do is divide both sides by 19,000.

24,320÷19,000

1,28-1=0.28; we need to multiply by 100 to find the increase.

0.28×100=28

So, the percentage increase is 28%.

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

P(X \geq 1) =1-P(X

And we can use the probability mass function and we got:

P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.72)^0 (1-0.72)^{4-0}=0.00615

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 1) = 1-0.00615 = 0.99385

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest "number of graduates who enroll in college", on this case we now that:  

X \sim Binom(n=4, p=0.72)  

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:  

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}  

We want to find the following probability:

P(X \geq 1)

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

P(X \geq 1) =1-P(X

And we can use the probability mass function and we got:

P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.72)^0 (1-0.72)^{4-0}=0.00615

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 1) = 1-0.00615 = 0.99385

lana [24]
Let wind speed = x mph 

when she rode 2 miles against the wind we have:-
speed = distance / time so
20 - x  = 2 / t -------(1)      where t is the time she took.

when riding with the wind we have 

20 + x = 3 / t--------(2)   adding equations (1) and (2):-

40  =  2/t + 3/t
40 =  5/t
t = 5/40 = 1/8 hr 

x = 20 - 2 / 1/8  = 20 - 16 = 4

Wind speed was 4 mph Answer

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of exponents

a^{m} = \frac{1}{a^{-m} } , then

2 ÷ 10^{4} = 2 ÷ \frac{1}{10^{-4} }

To divide leave first, change ÷ to × , turn second upside down

= 2 × 10^{-4}
