Answer:

30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First you can break down the percent and the time into a fraction

You can divide it by 2

so 2%/1   (2% in 1 minute)

Then you find the amount of time it would take to paint the whole bookcase

2 * 100 = 50

So time to paint the whole bookcase would be 50

50 - 20 = 30

Answer:

30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

He paints 40% of the bookcase in 20 minutes.

The rest of the bookcase is 100% - 40% = 60%.

60% of the bookcase still needs painting.

40% is to 20 minutes as 60% is to x minutes

40/20 = 60/x

Reduce the fraction on the left side.

2 = 60/x

Multiply both sides by x.

2x = 60

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 30

Answer: 30 minutes

An educational psychologist wishes to know the mean number of words a third grader can read per minute.
Rama09 [41]

Answer: 208.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the minimum sample size is given by :-

n= (\dfrac{z^*\times \sigma}{E})^2                                    (1)

, where z* = critical z-value (two tailed).                                                                      

\sigma = Standard deviation ( from prior study ) and E = Margin of error.

As per given , we have

Margin of error : E= 0.29

Confidence level = 85%

Significance level =\alpha=1-0.85=0.15

Using z-table , the critical value (two -tailed)=z^*=z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.15/2}=z_{0.075}=1.439

As per previous study , Variance =\sigma^2=8.41

\sigma=\sqrt{8.41}=2.9

Now, the required minimum sample size = n= (\dfrac{(1.439)\times (2.9)}{0.29})^2   [Substitute the values in formula (1)]

n=(14.39)^2

n=207.0721\approx208  [ Round to the next integer]

Hence, the minimum number of third graders that must be included in a sample = 208.

The area of the arrow given in the figure is 610 square cm

<h3>Area of composite figure</h3>

The given figure is made up of rectangle and triangle. The area is expressed as:

Area = Area of rectangle + area of triangle

Substitute the given parameters

Area of the arrow = (15*20) + 0.5(31 * 20)

Area of the arrow = 300 + 310
Area of the arrow = 610 square cm

Hence the area of the arrow given in the figure is 610 square cm
