A sandwich decrease from $8 to $6 what is the percentage decrease

Mathematics
1 answer:
kati45 [8]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the difference in price= $8-$6 = $2

Now, find percentage decrease in the price of sandwich.

Percentage decrease= (difference in price/ original price) *100

                                   = \frac{2}{8} *100

                                   =\frac{200}{8}

Percentage decrease=25%

Find the distance between the points (0,-2) and (-8,-8)
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Distance between the points = 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points:

(0,-2) and (-8,-8)

To find the distance between the two points.

Solution:

Applying distance formula to find the distance between the points.

For points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) the distance is given as:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Plugging in the given points in the formula.

d=\sqrt{(-8-0)^2+(-8-(-2))^2}

d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-8+2))^2}

d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-6)^2}

d=\sqrt{64+36}

d=\sqrt{100}

d=\pm10

Since distance is always positive. So d=10 units.

Simplify (2x + 1) (3.1 – 6)using the Distributive Property or the Area Method.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer: -5.8x-2.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this we will use the distributive property:

The distributive property allows to multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

(2x + 1) (3.1 – 6)

(2x [3.1]) +(2x[-6])+ (1 [3.1])+ (1 [-6])

6.2x-12x+3.1-6

-5.8x-2.9

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

A newspaper published an article about a study in which researchers subjected laboratory gloves to stress. Among 225 vinyl? glov
romanna [79]

Answer:

a)

H₀: ρ₁ ≤ ρ₂

H₁: ρ₁ > ρ₂

b)

Z= \frac{('p_{1} - 'p_{2}) - (p_{1} - p_{2})}{\sqrt{'p(1-'p)[\frac{1}{n_1} + \frac{1}{n_2} ]} } ≈ N(0;1)

c)

p-value < .00001

d)

Reject the null hypothesis.

The population proportion vinyl gloves that leak viruses is greater than the population proportion of latex gloves that leak viruses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective is to test if the population proportion of vinyl gloves that leak viruses (population 1) is greater then the population proportion of latex gloves that leak viruses (population 2).

Sample 1 (Vinyl)

n₁= 225

Sample proportion 'ρ₁= 0.60

Sample 2 (Latex)

n₂= 225

Sample proportion 'ρ₂= 0.09

Pooled proportion: 'ρ= (x₁+x₂)/(n₁+n₂)= ( 'ρ₁ + 'ρ₂)/2= (0.60 + 0.09)/2= 0.345 ≅0.35

The hypothesis is:

H₀: ρ₁ ≤ ρ₂

H₁: ρ₁ > ρ₂

α: 0.05

The statistic to use is a pooled Z

Z= \frac{('p_{1} - 'p_{2}) - (p_{1} - p_{2})}{\sqrt{'p(1-'p)[\frac{1}{n_1} + \frac{1}{n_2} ]} } ≈ N(0;1)

The critical region is one-tailed to the right (positive), the critical value is:

Z_{1-\alpha } = Z_{0.95} = 1.64

If Z ≥ 1.64, you will reject the null hypothesis.

If Z < 1.64, you will not reject the null hypothesis.

Z= \frac{(0.6 - 0.09) - (0}{\sqrt{0.35(1-0.35)[\frac{1}{225} + \frac{1}{225} ]} } = 11.34

Since the calculated Z- value is greater than the critical value, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis. The population proportion vinyl gloves that leak viruses is greater than the population proportion of latex gloves that leak viruses.

P-value approach:

p-value < .00001

If you compare with the level of signification, you reach the same decision.

I hope it helps!
