What is the value of 0.1561 rounded to the nearest tenth?

Ainat [17]

We have to round the value of 0.1561 to the nearest tenth.

The number after decimal is the number at tenth place. Consider the number to the right of the tenths place and use the number to determine if you will round up or stay the same. Notice that the number to the right of tenth place is more than or equal to 5 or less than 5. If that number is greater than or equal to 5, then the number will round up but if that number is less than 5, then the number will not round up. It will remain same.

Let us consider the given number 0.1561

The number at tenths place is 1

The number after the tenths place is 5 (which is either greater than or equal to 5)

So, the number will round up to 0.2

Solve the equation below. 1.2m+0.65=5

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

m = 3.625

Step-by-step explanation:

1.2m + 0.65 = 5

~Subtract 0.65 to both sides

1.2m = 4.35

~Divide 1.2 to both sides

m = 3.625

Best of Luck!

Simplify this expression

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

After simplifying, the exponent of x is 33 and the exponent of y is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

For us to simplify, we bring the x base together and the y base together

Recall from the law of indices;

x^a/x^b = x^(a-b)

and x^a * x^b = x^(a + b)

We shall be applying these here

Let us bring the x terms together

we have these as;

x^8/x^14 * 1/x^-39 = x^( 8 - 14 -(-39))

= x^(8 + 39-14) = x^33

for y, we have it that;

y^-26/y^-5 * 1/y^-21

= y^(-26 -(-5) - (-21)

= y^-26 + 5 + 21 = y^0

In 1943, an organization surveyed 1100 adults and asked, "Are you a total abstainer from, or do you on occasion consume, alc

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

We conclude that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has changed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in 1943, an organization surveyed 1100 adults and asked, "Are you a total abstainer from, or do you on occasion consume, alcoholic beverages?"

Of the 1100 adults surveyed, 429 indicated that they were total abstainers. In a recent survey, the same question was asked of 1100 adults and 352 in

Let p = proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol.

where, p = $\frac{429}{1100}$ = 0.39

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : p = 39% {means that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has not changed}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : p $\neq$ 39% {means that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has changed}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z proportion statistics;

T.S. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol = $\frac{352}{1100}$ = 0.32

n = sample of adults surveyed = 1100

So, test statistics = $\frac{0.32-0.39}{\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{1100} } }$

= -4.976

The value of z test statistics is -4.976.

Now, at 0.10 significance level the z table gives critical values of -1.645 and 1.645 for two-tailed test.

Since our test statistics doesn't lie within the range of critical values of z, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the proportion of adults who totally abstain from alcohol has changed.
