Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution for What is 8 percent of 1500:

8 percent *1500 =

(8:100)*1500 =

(8*1500):100 =

12000:100 = 120

Now we have: 8 percent of 1500 = 120

Question: What is 8 percent of 1500?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 1500.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with x.

Step 3: From step 1 above, 1500 = 100%

Step 4: Similarly, x = 8%

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

1500 = 100% (1).

x = 8% (2)

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

1500 = 100%

x 8%

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

x = 8

1500 100

x = 120

Therefore, 8% of 1500 is 120

kondaur [170]

Answer:

0.9

0.3012

0.1809

230258.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

μ = 100,000

λ = 1/μ = 1 / 100000 = 0.00001

a. Fails in less than 10,000 hours.

P(X < 10,000) = 1 - e^-λx

x = 10,000

P(X < 10,000) = 1 - e^-(0.00001 * 10000)

= 1 - e^-0.1

= 1 - 0.1

= 0.9

b. Lasts more than 120,000 hours.

X more than 120000

P(X > 120,000) = e^-λx

P(X > 120,000) = e^-(0.00001 * 120000)

P(X > 120,000) = e^-1.2

= 0.3011942 = 0.3012

c. Fails between 60,000 and 100,000 hours of use.

P(X < 60000) = 1 - e^-λx

x = 60000

P(X < 60,000) = 1 - e^-(0.00001 * 60000)

= 1 - e-^-0.6

= 1 - 0.5488116

= 0.4511883

P(X < 100000) = 1 - e^-λx

x = 100000

P(X < 60,000) = 1 - e^-(0.00001 * 100000)

= 1 - e^-1

= 1 - 0.3678794

= 0.6321205

Hence,

0.6321205 - 0.4511883 = 0.1809322

d. Find the 90th percentile. So 10 percent of the TV sets last more than what length of time?

P(x > x) = 10% = 0.1

P(x > x) = e^-λx

0.1 = e^-0.00001 * x

Take the In

−2.302585 = - 0.00001x

2.302585 / 0.00001

= 230258.5

The equation of a circle is given below.

BARSIC [14]

Given:

The equation of the circle is $x^2+(y+4)^2=64$

We need to determine the center and radius of the circle.

Center:

The general form of the equation of the circle is $(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

where (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius.

Let us compare the general form of the equation of the circle with the given equation $x^2+(y+4)^2=64$ to determine the center.

The given equation can be written as,

$(x-0)^2+(y+4)^2=64$

Comparing the two equations, we get;

(h,k) = (0,-4)

Therefore, the center of the circle is (0,-4)

Radius:

Let us compare the general form of the equation of the circle with the given equation $x^2+(y+4)^2=64$ to determine the radius.

Hence, the given equation can be written as,

$x^2+(y+4)^2=8^2$

Comparing the two equation, we get;

$r^2=8^2$

$r=8$

Thus, the radius of the circle is 8

A light bulb consumes 1440 watt-hours per day. How many watt-hours does it consume in 4 days and 18 hours.

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

6840

Step-by-step explanation:

Well we know there's 24 hours in a day so dividing that by 1440 we get 60. Now we know that it consumes 60 watts ever hour. so now we just have to figure out how many hours there are and times that by 60. So there are 96 hours in 4 days plus 28=114. So times that by 60 ( watts) 114×60=6840

So that's your awnser.

Hope this helps!! If so please mark brainliest and rate/heart to help my account if it did!!
