Explain how you would compare the numbers 0.4 and 3/8

Andrew earned $125.00 last year on his investment of $10,000.00

Artemon [7]

Answer:

1,25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Aby policzyć stopę procentową należy wykorzystać podzielić otrzymany zarobek (125$) przez kwotę zainwestowaną (10.000$) a następnie pomnożyć przez 100, aby otrzymać wartość wyrażoną w procentach.

I tak mamy

$\frac{125}{10000}$ x 100 [%] = 1,25%

The function = 3describes the volume of a cube, , in cubic inches, whose length, width, and height each measure inches. Find the

kolezko [41]

The correct structure of the question is as follows:

The function f(x) = x^3 describes a cube's volume, f(x) in cubic inches, whose length, width, and height each measures x inches. If x is changing, find the (instantaneous) rate of change of the volume with respect to x at the moment when x = 3 inches.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

f(x) = x^3

Then;

V = x^3

The rate whereby V is changing with respect to time is can be determined by taking the differentiation of V

dV/dx = 3x^2

Now, at the moment when x = 3;

dV/dx = 3(3)^2

dV/dx = 3(9)

dV/dx = 27 cubic inch per inch

Suppose it is at the moment when x = 9

Then;

dV/dx = 3(9)^2

dV/dx = 3(81)

dV/dx = 243 cubic inch per inch

Assume that a randomly selected subject is given a bone density test. Those test scores are normally distributed with a mean of

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The "probability that a given score is less than negative 0.84" is $\\ P(z$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have:

The random variable is normally distributed according to a standard normal distribution, that is, a normal distribution with $\\ \mu = 0$ and $\\ \sigma = 1$ .
We are provided with a z-score of -0.84 or $\\ z = -0.84$ .

Preliminaries

A z-score is a standardized value, i.e., one that we can obtain using the next formula:

$\\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ [1]

Where

x is the raw value coming from a normal distribution that we want to standardize.
And we already know that $\\ \mu$ and $\\ \sigma$ are the mean and the standard deviation, respectively, of the normal distribution.

A z-score represents the distance from $\\ \mu$ in standard deviations units. When the value for z is negative, it "tells us" that the raw score is below $\\ \mu$ . Conversely, when the z-score is positive, the standardized raw score, x, is above the mean, $\\ \mu$ .

Solving the question

We already know that $\\ z = -0.84$ or that the standardized value for a raw score, x, is below $\\ \mu$ in 0.84 standard deviations.

The values for probabilities of the standard normal distribution are tabulated in the standard normal table, which is available in Statistics books or on the Internet and is generally in cumulative probabilities from negative infinity, - $\\ \infty$ , to the z-score of interest.

Well, to solve the question, we need to consult the standard normal table for $\\ z = -0.84$ . For this:

Find the cumulative standard normal table.
In the first column of the table, use -0.8 as an entry.
Then, using the first row of the table, find -0.04 (which determines the second decimal place for the z-score.)
The intersection of these two numbers "gives us" the cumulative probability for z or $\\ P(z$ .

Therefore, we obtain $\\ P(z$ for this z-score, or a slightly more than 20% (20.045%) for the "probability that a given score is less than negative 0.84".

This represent the area under the standard normal distribution, $\\ N(0,1)$ , at the left of z = -0.84.

To "draw a sketch of the region", we need to draw a normal distribution (symmetrical bell-shaped distribution), with mean that equals 0 at the middle of the distribution, $\\ \mu = 0$ , and a standard deviation that equals 1, $\\ \sigma = 1$ .

Then, divide the abscissas axis (horizontal axis) into equal parts of one standard deviation from the mean to the left (negative z-scores), and from the mean to the right (positive z-scores).

Find the place where z = -0.84 (i.e, below the mean and near to negative one standard deviation, $\\ -\sigma$ , from it). All the area to the left of this value must be shaded because it represents $\\ P(z$ and that is it.

The below graph shows the shaded area (in blue) for $\\ P(z$ for $\\ N(0,1)$ .

Worth 48 points!!!! plz help me.

Mrac [35]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The inverse means take the not of both sides

If it is Saturday, then there is no school.

Inverse If it is not Saturday, then there is school.

The converse flips the then and the if

If there is no school, then it is Saturday.

2.) The first given part is the if, what will happen is the then part

If you are a freshman, then you are required to attend orientation.

3.)

Given: 3x+1=-14 Prove: x=-5

Statements Reasons

1. 3x+1=-14 Given

2. 3x=-15 Subtraction Property of equality ( since we subtract 1 from each side)

3. X=-5 Division Property ( since we divide each side by 3)

Explain why is 1/5 bigger than 0.15

Nitella [24]

1/5 is greater because it equals 0.2

0.2 has an imaginary 0 at the end, to make it 0.20

.20 > 0.15

Therefore, 1/5 is greater than 0.15
