What is 1 and 1/2% of 400?

1 answer:

3 0

$\bf {{ a}}\%\ of\ b \implies \cfrac{{{ a}}}{100}\cdot b\implies {{ a}}\div 100\cdot b\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
thus
\\\\

\begin{cases}
{{ 1}}\%\ of\ 400 \implies \cfrac{{{ 1}}}{100}\cdot 400\implies {{1}}\div 100\cdot 400\\
--------------\\
{{ \frac{1}{2}}}\%\ of\ 400 \implies \cfrac{{{ \frac{1}{2}}}}{100}\cdot 400\implies {{\frac{1}{2}}}\div 100\cdot 400
\end{cases}$

Your equation is: P + 0.05P + 0.15P = 18

1.2P = 18

18/1.2 = $15

P = $15

Mean absolute deviation of 75, 89, 145, 85, 80, 92, 104, 90, 100?

Mama L [17]

First, compute the mean: $m=\frac{75+89+145+85+80+92+104+90+100}9=\frac{860}9=95.555$

Next compute the absolute deviations for each datapoint:
|75-95.555|=20.555
|89-95.555|=6.555
|145-95.555|=49.445
|85-95.555|=10.555
|80-95.555|=15.555
|92-95.555|=3.555
|104-95.555|=8.445
|90-95.555|=5.555
|100-95.555|=4.445

Next we'll take the mean of these deviations: $\frac{20.555+6.555+49.445+10.555+15.555+3.555+8.445+5.555+4.445}9=\frac{124.665}9=13.8517$

The mean absolute deviation of your data is 13.8517

Imagine you had 40 one-metre sections of fencing.

Darya [45]

Answer: If I’m not mistaken, the largest area is 75 m2 and the smallest is 2 m2

Step-by-step explanation:

For both : since they are asking for the area, you should calculate the perimeter.

So for the largest area, since you know that you have 40 fences, and each are 1 meter long, and they’re also asking for the largest rectangular area, this means that only the opposite sides will have the same length, so in order to divide the rectangle with the 40 one-meter fences, the biggest sides have to be 15 meters long (so for both : 15x2=30 meters). Then you deduct from 40, 30 : 40-30 = 10 which then you can devide by 2 and find 5 + 5 and that means that the 2 smallest sides will be 5 meters long each. Then finally to calculate the perimeter you should do the biggest side multiplied by the smallest side : 15 x 5 and you find 75 m2 (squaremeters), if I’m not mistaken.

And for the smallest area you take the smallest possibilities knowing that only the opposite sides should have the same length and not all of them, so you do 1 x 2 and you find 2 m2.

What do we call a polynomial with 5 terms

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

You call an expression with a single term a monimial, an expression with two terms is a binomial and an expression with three terms is a trinomial. An expression with more than three terms is named simply by it's number of terms. For example a polynomial with five terms is called a five-term polynomial.
