Correct question;

A national military bureau for a certain country collects data on active members in the military. Results are published in a national journal. According to the​ document, 77.1​% of military members are in the reserves and 11.9​% of military members are Black and in the reserves. What percentage of military members in the reserves are​ Black

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

77.1% of military members are in the reserves

11.9% of military members are Black and in the reserves.

Let x represent the total number of military members, y represent the number of military members that are in the reserves and z represent the number of military members that are black and in the reserves.

y = 77.1% of x

y = 0.771x

z = 11.9% of x

z = 0.119x

The percentage of military members in the reserves that are Black can be written as;

P = z/y × 100%

Substituting the values of z and y, we have.

P = 0.119x/0.771x × 100%

P = 0.154 × 100%

P = 15.4%

Answer:

9.193259%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to obtain the percentage of military members in the reserves who are​ Black, we will have to multiply the percentage of Black military members in the reserve by the percentage of military members in the reserve. This is calculated as follows:

Military members in the reserves who are​ Black (%) = 77.1771​% × 11.9119​%

                                                                                      = 9.193259%

Therefore, he percentage of military members in the reserves who are​ Black is 9.193259% .

Example

For example, let assume the total number of active members in the military is 100.

To obtain the number of military members who are in the reserves, we multiply 77.1771​% by 100. This gives us 78 approximately.

To obtain the number of military members in the reserves who are​ Black, we multiply 11.9119​% by 78 we got above who are active military members in the reserves. This gives us 9 members approximately.

I wish you the best.

Find the complete factorization of the expression. 48x + 56xy A) 8x(6 + 7y) B) 8x(7 + 6y) C) 8xy(6 + 7) D) 8xy(13)
mel-nik [20]
Hello there!

The expression:48x+ 56xy

We know we can't add them together since 56 is being multiplied by y. We aren't going to combine 48x and 56xy. They will remain separate terms. 

We know that "C" and "D" are not the answers. 

However, we can check the following expressions to see if they match the given expression.

8x(6+7y)= 8x*6= 48x  8x*7y= 56xy <=== "A" is correct

"A" is the correct answer. 

I hope this helps!

The answer is D.  The grand total for 12th graders is 68.  Divide the 28 students in 12th grade who prefer math by the grand total to get you a rounded answer of 0.412.
