Answer:

Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':

p% = p 'out of one hundred',

p% is read p 'percent',

p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100.

91% = 91/100 = 91 ÷ 100 = 0.91.

100% = 100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 1.

Decrease number by 91% of its value.

Percentage decrease = 91% × 843

New value = 843 - Percentage decrease

Calculate the New Value

New value =

843 - Percentage decrease =

843 - (91% × 843) =

843 - 91% × 843 =

(1 - 91%) × 843 =

(100% - 91%) × 843 =

9% × 843 =

9 ÷ 100 × 843 =

9 × 843 ÷ 100 =

7,587 ÷ 100 =

75.87

Calculate absolute change (actual difference)

Absolute change (actual difference) =

New value - 843 =

75.87 - 843 =

- 767.13

Proof.

Calculate percentage decrease:

Percentage decrease =

91% × 843 =

91 ÷ 100 × 843 =

91 × 843 ÷ 100 =

76,713 ÷ 100 =

767.13

Find the distance between the two numbers on a number line. Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form. - 7/9, - 2/9 The d

Nesterboy [21]

The distance between the two points on the number line is of $\mathbf{\frac{5}{9}}$ units.

-------------------------------------------

The distance between two numbers on the number line is given by the subtraction of the greater by the smaller number.
The greater number is $-\frac{2}{9}$
The smaller is $-\frac{7}{9}$ .
The distance is:

$-\frac{2}{9} - (-\frac{7}{9}) = -\frac{2}{9} + \frac{7}{9} = \frac{-2 + 7}{9} = \frac{5}{9}$

Thus, distance of $\mathbf{\frac{5}{9}}$ units.

Taya2010 [7]

Answer: Elijah would be 42 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:

We all know that Samuel is 48 inches while Elijah is 6 inches shorter.

You subtract 6 from 48 to get 42.

Hopefully, this helped. :D

(02.02 MC) Triangle ABC is shown. A is at negative 2, 1. B is at negative 1, 4. C is at negative 4, 5. If triangle ABC is reflec

Bezzdna [24]

Given:

The vertices of a triangle ABC are A(-2,1), B(-1,4) and C(-4,5).

Triangle ABC is reflected over the x‐axis, reflected over the y‐axis, and rotated 180 degrees.

To find:

The point B'.

Solution:

If a figure reflected over x-axis, then

$(x,y)\to (x,-y)$

$B(-1,4)\to B_1(-1,-4)$

If a figure reflected over y-axis, then

$(x,y)\to (-x,y)$

$B_1(-1,-4)\to B_2(-(-1),-4)$

$B_1(-1,-4)\to B_2(1,-4)$

If a figure rotated 180 degrees about the origin, then

$(x,y)\to (-x,-y)$

$B_2(1,-4)\to B'(-(1),-(-4))$

$B_2(1,-4)\to B'(-1,4)$

So, the coordinate of point B' are (-1,4).

Therefore, the correct option is A.

At an ocean-side nuclear power plant, seawater is used as part of the cooling system. This raises the temperature of the water t

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

(a1) The probability that temperature increase will be less than 20°C is 0.667.

(a2) The probability that temperature increase will be between 20°C and 22°C is 0.133.

(b) The probability that at any point of time the temperature increase is potentially dangerous is 0.467.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = temperature increase.

The random variable X follows a continuous Uniform distribution, distributed over the range [10°C, 25°C].

The probability density function of X is:

$f(X)=\left \{ {{\frac{1}{25-10}=\frac{1}{15};\ x\in [10, 25]} \atop {0;\ otherwise}} \right.$

(a1)

Compute the probability that temperature increase will be less than 20°C as follows:

$P(X$

Thus, the probability that temperature increase will be less than 20°C is 0.667.

(a2)

Compute the probability that temperature increase will be between 20°C and 22°C as follows:

$P(20$

Thus, the probability that temperature increase will be between 20°C and 22°C is 0.133.

(b)

Compute the probability that at any point of time the temperature increase is potentially dangerous as follows:

$P(X>18)=\int\limits^{25}_{18}{\frac{1}{15}}\, dx\\=\frac{1}{15}\int\limits^{25}_{18}{dx}\,\\=\frac{1}{15}[x]^{25}_{18}=\frac{1}{15}[25-18]=\frac{7}{15}\\=0.467$

Thus, the probability that at any point of time the temperature increase is potentially dangerous is 0.467.

(c)

Compute the expected value of the uniform random variable X as follows:

$E(X)=\frac{1}{2}[10+25]=\frac{35}{2}=17.5$

Thus, the expected value of the temperature increase is 17.5°C.
