Answer:

14.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the new cost for Stock A:

2000x0.88=1760

2. Find the new cost for Stock B:

5720x0.85=4862

3. Find total sum of the original stocks:

2000+5720=7720

4. Find total sum of the new stocks:

1760+4862=6622

5. Find the decrease:

7720(1-x)=6622

Solve for x

x=14.2

Angel and Jayden were at track practice. The track is 2/5 kilometers around.  Angel ran 1 lap in 2 minutes.  Jayden ran 3 laps
choli [55]

Answer:

6/25 km in 1 min; or 0.24 km/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The info about Angel is not necessary.

Jayden runs 3 laps in 5 mins

Each lap is 2/5 km, so Jayden runs 3 x (2/5 km) in 5 min = 6/5 km in 5 min.

Distance = rate x time

6/5 km = rate (5 min)

We want to isolate r (rate), so divide both sides by 5 min

6/5 km ÷ 5 min = r

6/5 km (1/5 min) = r

6/25 km/min = r  (notice how the units worked out correctly to km/min)

So, Jayden runs 6/25 km in 1 min.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

see explaination

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the null hypothesis is that the PCB survives against the alternate that the PCB 'does not survive'. The test says that the PCB will survice if it is classified as 'good'; or, it will not survive if it is classifies as 'bad'.

a. The Type II error is the error committed when a PCB which cannot actually survive is classified as 'good'.

b. Therefore P(Type II error) = P(The PCB is classified as 'good' | PCB does not survives) = 0.03.
