Answer:

b. 0.055

Step-by-step explanation:

The point estimate of the proportion of people who wear hearing aids is

The number of people in the sample who wear hearing aids divided by the total number of people in the sample.

In this problem, we have that:

Sample of 855.

47 people in the sample had hearing aids.

47/855 = 0.0549

Rounding up

0.055

So the correct answer is:

b. 0.055

The volume of a cone, V, is represented by , where r is the cone’s radius and h its height.
Arlecino [84]
So the height will equal 95.50 inches.

So if you double the height the volume is 1800cm3 and that is double the original volume 

And if you double the height the volume is 3600cm3 and that is the triple the original volume

line pass through the line (-3, -7.5)tahila determined that the equation of line n is y=0.5x explain the error tahila made while
Tasya [4]

The equation of the line will be (assuming the y-intercept equal to zero):

y = 2.5*x

<h3>What is Tahila's mistake?</h3>

We know that we have a linear equation of the form:

y = a*x + b

Such that we know that the line passes through (-3, -7.5), notice that the proposed equation is:

y = 0.5*x

If you evaluate that in -3, you get:

y = 0.5*-3 = -1.5

So this line does not pass through (-3, -7.5).

If we assume that b = 0 in the linear equation, then we can find the value of a as:

-7.5  =  a*-3

a = 7.5/3 = 2.5

Then the linear equation is:

y = 2.5*x

What percent of 99 is 90?
Yuri [45]

Answer:

91%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula \frac{is}{of}=\frac{percent}{100}

  • "is" is 90
  • "of" is 99
  • "percent" is what we are solving for so we will denote it as x

Substituting in our values we get \frac{90}{99}=\frac{x}{100}

  • We will need to cross multiply here to get (90)(100) = (x%)(99)
  • This simplifies to 9000 = 99x%
  • Dividing by 99 on both sides we get 90.9% → x = 91%
