Answer:

$27

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent of a number, we can use the formula Px = y.

In this formula, P is the percent we are finding. x and y are the numbers we are given, x being the number we are finding a percentage of and y being the answer.

To substitute a percent into the formula, we have to first convert it into a decimal. Simply remove the % sign and move the decimal point two places to the left. We have 0.55.

Now we can plug in our values.

0.55 · 60 = y

0.55 · 60 = 33

55% of 60 is 33.

The question asks for the price of the item when 55% is taken off of the original price.

So, we have to subtract 33 from 60.

60 - 33 = 27

The sale price, then, is $27.

I hope this helps ^^

Good luck :)

Eric throws a biased coin 10 times. He gets 3 tails. Sue throw the same coin 50 times. She gets 20 tails. Aadi is going to throw
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

(1) The correct option is (A).

(2) The probability that Aadi will get Tails is \frac{2}{5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that:

  • Eric throws a biased coin 10 times. He gets 3 tails.
  • Sue throw the same coin 50 times. She gets 20 tails.

The probability of tail in both cases is:

  • P(\text{Tail})=\frac{3}{10}
  • P(\text{Tail})=\frac{20}{50}=\frac{2}{5}

(1)

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

In this case we need to compute the proportion of tails.

Then according to the Central limit theorem, Sue's estimate is best because she throws it <em>n = </em>50 > 30 times.

Thus, the correct option is (A).

(2)

As explained in the first part that Sue's estimate is best for getting a tail, the probability that Aadi will get Tails when he tosses the coin once is:

P(\text{Tail})=\frac{20}{50}=\frac{2}{5}

Thus, the probability that Aadi will get Tails is \frac{2}{5}.

The Martin’s want to buy a new computer. The regular price is $849. The store is offering a 20% discount and a sales tax of 6% i
kramer

Answer: The total cost of computer would be $719.95

Step-by-step explanation:

I use proportions for these types of problems so we begin with a proportion!

20/100=x/849

100x=16980

x=169.80

Then, after finding how much the discount is, we would subtract it.

849-169.80=679.20

Next, we would find the tax amount with another proportion to find what 6 percent of 679.20 is.

6/100=x/679.20

100x=4075.2

x=40.75

Lastly, we would add the tax, $40.75, plus the total after the discount, $679.20!

Hope this helps! Good luck! (:

What is 70/360 in percentage​
defon

Answer:

About 19.45%

Step-by-step explanation:

First set the fraction equal to x over 100 ———- (70/360)=(x/100)

cross multiply———- 70 * 100 = 7000            360 * x = 360x

solve for x —————- 7000=360x

                                   7000/360= 19.44444444

Round ——- x=19.45

OR

Divide fraction ———— 70/360 = 0.1944444444

Next, convert to percentage by moving decimal 2 places to the right ——

019.44444444

Round ————- = 19.45

A normal curve with mean = 25 has an area of .3531 between 25 and 34. What is the standard deviation for this normal curve?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

The desviation is 8 4/7 or 8.571

Step-by-step explanation:

The conversion for any variable X to a standard z is

Z=\frac{X-\[Mu]}\\{\[Sigma]}

where mu is the mean and sigma de desviation

You can find the value of Z whith the tables of the accumulated probability function. The accumulated probability for the mean is 0.5 .Remenber that the accumlated probability function represent the area at the left of an abscissa. Then

0.5+0.3531=0.8531

Acording to the accumulated probability function table, a Z=1.05 has an area of 0.8531 at its left.

Now it is only solving the equation

\[Sigma]=\frac{X-\[Mu]}{Z}

σ=\frac{34-25}{1.05}

σ=8.571
