4.70
x 6 ( lbs)
28.20

4.70 divided by 2 is 2.35

28.20 +2.35 = 30.55

How do I subtract decimals from whole numbers?

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Just use long subtraction by expanding the decimal places of the whole number. This is done by adding a point, and enough zeros to it to match the number of decimal digits in the other number (digits after the decimal point).

12345678

i.e: 5 - 2.48374827, 2.48374827 has 8 decimal digits, so add 8 zeros after the point.

1 1 1 1 1 1 1

5.00000000

2.48374827

7 + 3 = 10, 7 + 2 + 1 = 10, 8 + 1 + 1= 10, 5 + 4 + 1 = 10, 2 + 7 + 1 = 10, 3 + 6 + 1 = 10, 1 + 8 + 1 = 10, 5 + 4 + 1 = 10, 2 + 2 + 1 = 5 : 5.00000000

This is basically borrowing a group of 10s which are the same as 1s in the next decimal place up.

For each digit except the first to the right, let 10 subtract that number from it and minus 1 since the 1 is carried over.

According to The Wedding Report, Inc., the mean cost for a wedding in the United States is $28732 (as of November 2008). Suppose

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given points:

Step-by-step explanation:

$X = \text{cost of wedding}\sim \text{Normal}\ (\mu = 28732, \sigma= 1500)\\\\$

For point a:

$Probability\ = 0.00000359\\\\ \text{(Using Excel function:} =NORMDIST(22000,28732,1500,1)).$

For point b:

$Probability \ = 0.014678\\\\\text{(Using Excel function:} =1-NORMDIST(32000,28732,1500,1))\\\\$

For point c:

$Probability\ = 0.794614436 \\\\$

$\text{(Using Excel function:} \\=NORMDIST (30000,28732,1500,1)-NORMDIST(25000,28732,1500,1))\\\\$

For point d:

$Q_1 = 27720.26537 \\\\\text{(Using Excel function:} =NORMINV(0.25,28732,1500)) \\\\Q_3 = 29743.73463 \\\\\text{(Using Excel function:} =NORMINV(0.75,28732,1500)).$

For point e:

$IQR = Q_3 - Q_1 = 29743.73463 - 27720.26537 = 2023.469251.$

For point f:

$Top\ 10\% = 30654.32735 \\\\\text{(Using Excel function:} =NORMINV(0.9,28732,1500)).$

Find the equation of a line that passes through the point (2,-5) and is perpendicular to the y-axis. Do not put any spaces in yo

Allushta [10]

Answer:

y=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the line

Lines can be expressed in several forms. The slope-intercept form of the line is:

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope of the line and m is the y-intercept.

If the line is perpendicular to the y-axis, then it's a horizontal line. Horizontal lines have slope m=0, thus, the equation is:

y = b

To find the value of b, just substitute the given point:

-5=b

The equation of the line is:

y=-5
