Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question you should be asking yourself is, "80% of how many doctors is 240?"  Algebraically, 80% is .8, "of" is multiplying, "how many doctors" is our unknown, and "is" means equals.  Putting that all together:

.8x = 240 so

x = 300

Divide the total height by the number of step leading

24/91=0.2637 m/step

step 2

Multiply  0.2637 m/step by 50 step

0.2637(50) = 13.19m

Hope this helps!!! :)

Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population mean μ μ. Find the margin of error M.E. that corresponds to a sample of si
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The margin of error is 30.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size 19(lesser than 30), and we only have the sample standard deviation. So we use the t-distribution.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 19 - 1 = 18

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 18 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 0.995(t_{995}). So we have T = 2.878

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 10.5*2.878 = 30.22

The Sun hits a 30 foot flagpole at a 60° angle and casts an unobstructed 52 foot shadow. If a building is built 32 feet away, wh
aivan3 [116]

Answer: 11.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the shadow of the building = length of the shadow - distance of the building

= 52 - 32

= 20

Let the height the shadow strike the side of the building be h

then by similar shape rule

h / 20 = 30 / 52

52h = 30 x 20

52h = 600

h = 600/52

h = 11.53846154

h ≈ 11.5

200 candies were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Leah would like to earn at least $120 per month. She babysits for $5 per hour and works at an ice cream shop for $8 per hour. Le
Contact [7]

Answer:

A C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Leah wants to earn at least 120 dollars a month and she has two job options. This is written as

5x + 8y > 120

She also can't work more than 20 hours, leading us to the second equation

x + y = 20

First we solve for one variable

y = 20 - x

then substitute it into the first equation

5x + 8(20 - x) = 120

Solve for x

5x + 160 - 8x = 120

3x = 40

     x = 40/3

Then we solve for y

y = 20 - x

     y = 20/3

x < 40/3

y > 20/3

B and D will not work because their x+y is greater than 20.

E will also not work because the value is less than 120
