Answer:

x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the equation as  

x /32 = 5/ 8

Multiply both sides of the equation by 32

32 ⋅ x /32 = 32 ⋅ 5/8

Simplify both sides of the equation.

Cancel the common factor of  

32

Cancel the common factor.

<h3><u>32·</u> x/<u>32</u> · 5/8 </h3>

Rewrite the expression.

x = 32 ⋅ 5/8

Simplify  

32⋅5/8

Cancel the common factor of  

8

Factor  8  out of  32

x = 8 ( 4 ) ⋅ 5/8

Cancel the common factor.

Rewrite the expression.

x = 4 ⋅ 5

Multiply  4  by  5

.A bacteria culture grows at a rate of 20%
Zolol [24]

The number of the specimens would be in the culture after 5 minutes will be 7,962.62.

<h3>What is an exponent?</h3>

Consider the function:

y = a (1 + r) ˣ

Where x is the number of times this growth occurs, a = initial amount, and r = fraction by which this growth occurs.

A bacteria culture grows at a rate of 20% per minute.

If the culture initially has 3,200 bacteria specimens.

Then the equation will be

y = 3200 (1 + 0.2) ˣ

y = 3200 (1.20) ˣ

Then the number of the specimens would be in the culture after 5 minutes will be

y = 3200 (1.20)⁵

y = 7962.62

More about the exponent link is given below.

Suppose that 10% of the undergraduates at a certain university are foreign students, and that 25% of the graduate students are f
Deffense [45]

Answer:

0.6154 = 61.54% probability that the student is an undergraduate

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Foreign

Event B: Undergraduate.

There are four times as many undergraduates as graduate students

So 4/5 = 80% are undergraduate students and 1/5 = 20% are graduate students.

Probability the student is foreign:

10% of 80%

25% of 20%. So

P(A) = 0.1*0.8 + 0.25*0.2 = 0.13

Probability that a student is foreign and undergraduate:

10% of 80%. So

P(A \cap B) = 0.1*0.8 = 0.08

What is the probability that the student is an undergraduate?

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.08}{0.13} = 0.6154

0.6154 = 61.54% probability that the student is an undergraduate

I need help please. Thanks
Agata [3.3K]

Given:

m∠APD = (7x + 1)°

m∠DPC = 90°

m∠CPB = (9x - 7)°

To find:

The measure of arc ACD.

Solution:

<em>Sum of the adjacent angles in a straight line = 180°</em>

m∠APD + m∠DPC + m∠CPB = 180°

7x° + 1° + 90° + 9x° - 7° = 180°

16x° + 84° = 180°

Subtract 84° from both sides.

16x° + 84° - 84° = 180° - 84°

16x° = 96°

Divide by 16° on both sides.

x = 6

m∠APB = 180°

m∠BPD = (9x - 7)° + 90°

             = (9(6) - 7)° + 90°

             = 47° + 90°

m∠BPD = 137°

m∠APD = m∠APB + m∠BPD

             = 180° + 137°

             = 317°

<em>The measure of the central angle is congruent to the measure of the intercepted arc.</em>

m(ar ACD) = m∠APD

m(ar ACD) = 317°

The arc measure of ACD is 317°.

Work out the answers to:<br>a) 7 + (-4)<br>b) (-6) + (-3)<br>c) 2 -(-6)<br>d) (-8) - (-13)​
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

a) 7 + (-4) = 3

b) (-6) + (-3) = -9

c) 2 -(-6) = 8

d) (-8) - (-13) = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 7 + (-4)

= 7 + (-4)

= 3

b) (-6) + (-3)

= -6 - 3

= -9

c) 2 - (-6)

= 2 + 6

= 8

d) (-8) - (-13)

= -8 + 13

= 5
