Approximately 9 out of every 50 people who saw a movie this week say they watched it on Netflix. Suppose we want to find the pro

bability that a randomly selected movie-goer saw a movie on Netflix this weekend. Express that probability in three ways: As a fraction, a proportion, and a percentage.

Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>1. As a fraction: 9/50</u>
  • <u>2. As a proportion: x/1 = 9/50</u>
  • <u>3. As a percentage: 18%</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

<u>1. As a fraction:</u>

Depart from the definition of probability: probability is the number of favoragle outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes:

  • Probability = number of movie-goers who say they watched a movie on Netflix this week / number of movie-goers that saw a movie this week

  • Probability = 9 / 50

<u>2. As a proportion:</u>

A proportion is the equality of two ratios. In this case you must set the ratio of people who say they watched it on Netflx, x, per every people who saw a movie this week, 1, equal to the ration 9 /50.

Hence, the proportion that shows the probability is:

  • x / 1 = 9 / 50

Where x is the probability.

<u>3. As a percentage</u>

You just have to multiply the probability by 100:

  • (9/50) × 100 = 18%

An individual needs a daily supplement of at least 420 units of vitamin C and 170 units of vitamin E and agrees to obtain this s
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

To obtain equivalent amount from both foods we can eat 10 ounces of Food I and 5 Ounces of food II

To obtain minimum cholesterol, the individual should eat only 21 ounces of food II and zero ounce of food for the daily supplement of the individual

Step-by-step explanation:

Food I contains 32×C + 10×E per ounce

Food II contains 20×C + 14×E  

Here we have X × (Food I) + Y × (Food II) = 420 C + 170 E

32·X + 20·Y = 420 C

10·X + 14·Y = 170 E

Therefore

X = 10 and Y = 5

To minimize the cholesterol, we can increase amount of Food II to get

21 ounces of food II gives

420 units of vitamin E and 294 units of vitamin E with 273 units of cholesterol.

I need help finishing a question. I used the explanation function on the program, but it didn't specify what to do to get the fi
leva [86]

I would compute sqrt(1 + 160pi^2) first to get approximately 39.75093337

Add this to 1 and we have 40.75093337

Then divide over 2pi to get a final approximate result of 6.48571248

So x = 6.48571248 is one approximate solution

In short, I computed \frac{1+\sqrt{1+160\pi^2}}{2\pi} only focusing on the plus for now.

----------------------

If you were to compute \frac{1-\sqrt{1+160\pi^2}}{2\pi} you should get roughly -6.167402596 as your other solution. Each solution can then be plugged into the original equation to check if you get 0 or not. You likely won't land exactly on 0 but you'll get close enough.
