To find the percent of 37 out of 71, you must divide them out and move the decimal two places to the right.

So we can put the expression as so:
37 / 71 = ?

Now, divide the two to get:
37 / 71 = 0.52112

We must move the decimal two places to the right to get the percent:
0.52112 ...now is... 52.112%

Notice the key word <u>about</u>, so this means to round:
52.112% ...now is... 52%

Hope I could help! If I did my math incorrectly, please let me know!
Have a good one.

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

The volume of the gas is $145.45\ cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form $y*x=k$ or $y=k/x$

Let

v------> the volume of a gas in cubic centimeters

p-----> the pressure of the gas in liters per square centimeters

so

$p*v=k$

we have

$v=16\ cm^{3}, p=20\ l/cm^{2}$

substitute and solve for k

$k=16*20=320$

The equation is $p*v=320$

<em>Find the volume of the gas when the pressure is 2.2 L/cm2</em>

so

For $p=2.2\ l/cm^{2}$ Find the value of v

substitute in the equation

$(2.2)*v=320$

$v=320/2.2=145.45\ cm^{3}$

In a random sample of 400 residents of Boston, 320 residents indicated that they voted for Obama in the last presidential electi

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

C.I = 0.7608 ≤ p ≤ 0.8392

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Let consider a random sample n = 400 candidates where 320 residents indicated that they voted for Obama

probability $\hat p = \dfrac{320}{400}$

= 0.8

Level of significance ∝ = 100 -95%

= 5%

= 0.05

The objective is to develop a 95% confidence interval estimate for the proportion of all Boston residents who voted for Obama.

The confidence internal can be computed as:

$=\hat p \pm Z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\dfrac{ p(1-p)}{n } }$

where;

$Z_{0.05/2}$ = $Z_{0.025}$ = 1.960

SO;

$=0.8 \pm 1.960 \sqrt{\dfrac{ 0.8(1-0.8)}{400 } }$

$=0.8 \pm 1.960 \sqrt{\dfrac{ 0.8(0.2)}{400 } }$

$=0.8 \pm 1.960 \sqrt{\dfrac{ 0.16}{400 } }$

$=0.8 \pm 1.960 \sqrt{4 \times 10^{-4}}$

$=0.8 \pm 1.960 \times 0.02}$

$=0.8 \pm 0.0392$

= 0.8 - 0.0392 OR 0.8 + 0.0392

= 0.7608 OR 0.8392

Thus; C.I = 0.7608 ≤ p ≤ 0.8392

What is the slope of the line that contains the points (9,-4) and (1, -5)

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

A. 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

m = rise/run

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-5- - 4)/(1-9)

m = (-5+4)/(-8)

m = (-1)/(-8)

m = 1/8

Two angles are supplementary one angle measure 12 more than the other find the measures

Furkat [3]

We have a + b = 180 and a = 12 + b;
Then, 12 + b + b = 180;
12 + 2b = 180;
2b = 168;
b = 84;
a = 12 + 84;
a = 96;
