Answer:

0.3

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

To write 15/50 as a percent, you have to multiply the fraction by 100

\frac{15}{50} x 100

dividing 100 by 50 gives 2

15 x 2 = 30%

to convert 15/50 to a decimal, first simply the fraction.

Both the numerator and denominator can be divided by 5

3/10

the next step is to divide the numerator by the denominator

3/10 = 0.3

16. From past experience, a company has found that in cartons of transistors, 92% contain no defective transistors, 3% contain o
Lynna [10]

Answer:

E(x)=0.15

V(x)=0.3075

S(x)=0.5545

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a discrete variable is calculated as:

E(x)=x_1*p(x_1)+x_2*p(x_2)+...+x_n*p(n)

where x_1,x_2,...,x_n are the values that the variable can take and p(x_1),p(x_2),...,p(x_n) are their respective probabilities.

So, if we call x the number of defective transistors in cartons, we can calculate the mean E(x) as:

E(x)=(0*0.92)+(1*0.03)+(2*0.03)+(3*0.02)=0.15

Because there are 0 defective transistor with a probability of 0.92, 1 defective transistor with a probability of 0.03, 2 defective transistors with a probability of 0.03 and 3 defective transistors with a probability of 0.01.

At the same way, the variance V(x) is calculated as:

V(x)=E(x^2)-(E(x))^2

Where E(x^2)=x_1^2*p(x_1)+x_2^2*p(x_2)+...+x_n^2*p(n)

So, the variance V(x) is equal to:

E(x^2)=(0^2*0.92)+(1^2*0.03)+(2^2*0.03)+(3^2*0.02)=0.33\\V(x)=0.33-(0.15)^2\\V(x)=0.3075

Finally, the standard deviation is calculated as:

S(x)=\sqrt{V(x)} \\S(x)=\sqrt{0.3075} \\S(x)=0.5545

What is slope when talking about math
dolphi86 [110]
When graphing, its how much you rise and run
thats the formula when u have a graph and the question is asking for the slope.
you chose a point, and go down or up however many times it goes to the next point, and you run to the left however many times it gets you to get to that point.
if the line goes downward the slope is therefore negative, and if the line goes upward, the slope is therefore, positive.
m in math is meant to be slope, so m= \frac{rise}{run}

9x-y=5<br> 7x-6y=5<br> Solve the system by the substitution method
qwelly [4]
  9x - y = 5
7x - 6y = 5

Solve both equations for one variable. I'll solve for y.

9x - y = 5            Subtract 9x from both sides
      -y = -9x + 5   Divide both sides by -1
       y = 9x - 5

7x - 6y = 5   Subtract 7x from both sides
      -6y = -7x + 5   Divide both sides by -6
          y = \frac{7}{6}x - \frac{5}{6}

Since both equations equal y, you can set them equal to each other and solve for x.

9x - 5 =<span> \frac{7}{6}x - \frac{5}{6}   Multiply both sides by 6 to eliminate the fractions
54x - 30 = 7x - 5    Subtract 7x from both sides
47x - 30 = -5          Add 30 to both sides
       47x = 25          Divide both sides by 47
           x = </span>\frac{25}{47}

Now, plug that x-value into the x of either equation. I'll plug it into 9x - y = 5.

9x - y = 5   Plug in the x-value
9(<span>\frac{25}{47}) - y = 5   Multiply
</span>\frac{225}{47} - y = 5   Subtract <span>\frac{225}{47} from both sides
</span>-y = <span>0.21276595744 (I had to convert it to a decimal)   Divide both sides by -1
 y = -</span><span>0.21276595744

So, the answer to the system is (</span>0.53191489361, -<span>0.21276595744)</span>

Yo i have no idea what this is. please help
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

X=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply:

4 * 6 = x * 3

Simplifying

4 * 6 = x * 3

Multiply 4 * 6

24 = x * 3

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

24 = 3x

Solving

24 = 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

24 + -3x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

24 + -3x = 0

Add '-24' to each side of the equation.

24 + -24 + -3x = 0 + -24

Combine like terms: 24 + -24 = 0

0 + -3x = 0 + -24

-3x = 0 + -24

Combine like terms: 0 + -24 = -24

-3x = -24

Divide each side by '-3'.

x = 8

Simplifying

x = 8
