the cost of an annual tuition at a university increased from 10,500 to 11,300 what is the percent increase in tuition to the nea

Maurinko [17]

Percent increase
find increase first
10500 to 11300
11300-10500=800
so
percent increase
change/original
origianal=10500
change=800
800/10500=8/105=0.0761
percent means parts out of 100
0.0761/1 times 100/100=7.61/100=7.61%

rond 7.61% to tenth or to 7.6%

7.6%

Circle A has been enlarged to create circle A'. The table below shows the circumference of both circles.

stich3 [128]

Answer:

Option (2) 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Rule for the dilation of an image by a scale factor is,

Scale factor = $\frac{\text{Radius of image circle A'}}{\text{Radius of pre-image A}}=\frac{r'}{r}$

= $\frac{(2\pi) r'}{(2\pi) r}$

= $\frac{\text{Circumference of image}}{\text{Circumference of pre-image}}$

= $\frac{10.5}{7}$

= 1.5

Therefore, scale factor was used to create a circle A' = 1.5

Option (2) will be the correct option.

The difference of the square of a number and 40 is equal to 3 times that number. Find the positive solution.

Wewaii [24]

Answer: The answer is 8.

Step-by-step explanation: The first step is to convert the expression into figures. We shall call the unknown number Y. So if we are told “the square of a number,” that means Y squared, or better still, Y^2. Further we are told “the difference between the square of a number and 40” and that can be written as;

Y^2 - 40.

Next we are told that this expression is equal to 3 times that number (that is 3Y). That can now be written out as follows,

Y^2 - 40 = 3Y

If we move all expressions to one side of the equation, what we would have is,

Y^2 - 3Y -40 = 0

(Remember that when a positive value crosses to the other side of an equation it becomes negative and vice versa)

We now have a quadratic equation

Y^2 -3Y - 40 = 0

By factorizing we now have

(Y -8) (Y + 5) = 0

Therefore Y - 8 = 0 or

Y + 5 = 0

Hence, Y = 8 or Y = -5

Since we are asked to calculate the positive solution, Y = 8

If z varies inversely as w, and z= 3 when w=4, find z when w=2.<br> Z=

vivado [14]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse proportion.

z = k/w

z = 3, w = 4

Solve for k constant.

3 = k/4

(4)3 = (4)k/4

12=k

The value of k constant is 12.

z = k/w

Put w as 2 and k as 12 and solve for z.

z = 12/2

z = 6

The value of z when w equals 2 is 6.

The computer that controls a bank's automatic teller machine crashes a mean of 0.6 times per day. What is the probability that,

professor190 [17]

Answer:

0.2103 = 21.03% probability that, in any seven-day week, the computer will crash less than 3 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given interval.

Mean of 0.6 times a day

7 day week, so $\mu = 7*0.6 = 4.2$

What is the probability that, in any seven-day week, the computer will crash less than 3 times? Round your answer to four decimal places.

$P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)$

In which

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-4.2}*(4.2)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0150$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-4.2}*(4.2)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.0630$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-4.2}*(4.2)^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.1323$

So

$P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0150 + 0.0630 + 0.1323 = 0.2103$

0.2103 = 21.03% probability that, in any seven-day week, the computer will crash less than 3 times.
