Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of jeans cost $45  before the sale.

The sale is taking $9 off of the original price.

Then

$45 - 100%

$9 - x%

Write a proportion:

\dfrac{45}{9}=\dfrac{100}{x}

Cross multiply:

45\cdot x=9\cdot 100\\ \\45x=900\\ \\x=\dfrac{900}{45}\\ \\x=20\%

you are given an 8-gallon jug filled with water and also two empty jugs: one that holds 5 gallons and other that holds 3 gallons
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use following steps to measure exactly 4 gallons of water with the help of 5 gallons and 3 gallons empty jugs.

1). Fill 3 gallons jug completely.

2). Pour this 3 gallons of water into 5 gallons jug. Now we have 3 gallons of water in 5 gallons jug and 3 gallons jug empty.

We can add 2 gallons of water in the empty space of 5 gallons jug more.

3). Fill the 3 gallons jug with the water again.

4). Pour this water into 5 gallons jug which can hold 2 gallons of water more.

Now we have 5 gallons of jug filled fully and 1 gallon water remaining in the 3 gallons jug.

5). Empty the 5 gallons jug completely.

6). Pour the remaining 1 gallon of remaining water in 3 gallons jug into 5 gallons jug.

7). Fill the 3 gallons jug completely and pour it into 5 gallon jug.

8). Finally we have 4 gallons of water in the 5 gallons jug.

Which of the following sets of data will have the smallest Standard Deviation?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard Deviation σ2 =

Σ(xi - μ)2/N

=(1 - 5.3)2 + ... + (9 - 5.3)2/10

=68.1/10

= 6.81

σ = √6.81

= 2.60959767014

B) σ2 =

Σ(xi - μ)2/N

=(3 - 61.7)2 + ... + (99 - 61.7)2/10

=58414.1/10

= 5841.41

σ = √5841.41

= 76.429117488036

C) (1 - 11.4)2 + ... + (1 - 11.4)2/10

=8758.4/10

= 875.84

σ = √875.84

= 29.59459410095

D) (79 - 79)2 + ... + (79 - 79)2/10

=0/10

= 0

σ = √0

= 0

I hope this helps, mark as Brainliest please.
