Multiplying 0.7 by the original price will work...
If you divide the cost by 100, subtract 30 from 100, you will be left with 70% times the 1/100
70% is also expressed as 0.7, since 7/10=70/100
Hope this helps!
9:4:5.....added together = 18
9/18 (72) = 648/18 = 36
4/18 (72) = 288/18 = 16
5/18 (72) = 360/18 = 20
so we have 36:16:20
Answer:
option (a) It will be closer to 30 than to 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
For sample 1:
n₁ = 10
variance, s₁² = 20
For sample 2:
n₂ = 15
variance, s₂² = 30
Now,
The pooled variance is calculated using the formula,

on substituting the given respective values, we get

or
= 26.0869
Hence,
the pooled variance will be closer to 30 than to 20
Therefore,
The correct answer is option (a) It will be closer to 30 than to 20
