A fraction is a short way to write a division problem. When you see a fraction, it means "the top number divided by the bottom number".
When you actually DO the division, the answer is the decimal that's equal to the fraction.
There will be 1.078x students next year and equation is number of students in next year = x + 7.8% of x
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given, There are "x" number of students at helms.
The number of students increases by 7.8% each year which means if there "x" number of students in present year, then the number of students in next year will be x + 7.8% of x
Number of students in next year = number of students in present year + increased number of students.
Thus there will be 1.078x students in next year
Answer:
0.082 = 8.2× 10^-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the decimal number 0.082, the expanded form using the power of 10 can be gotten by writing the decimal number in standard format(writing as a multiple of 10).
To do that we will shift the decimal point to the front up to the front of digit 8. This shows that the decimal point will be shifted 2times to the front. Since of is shifted 2times to the front, our power of 10 will be -2.
0.082 = 8.2× 10^-2
This gives the required answer.
Note that, the power of 10 is positive when decimals are shifted to the back and negative when shifted to the front(in this case).
240,000 written as a
whole number multiplied by a power of ten:
In the provided number
240,000 if we want to multiply this number by a power of ten then it would be
like 240,000 raised to the power of 10
<span><span>1. </span>In which clearly stating
that 240,000 shall multiply itself by 10 times in 240,000.
</span>
<span><span>2. </span>Hence 240, 000^10 in
numerical form</span>
<span><span>
3. </span>The result is 6.340338097x10^53</span>
<span><span>
4. </span>It seems like the
product is a lot bigger and capsized itself to a smaller scientific reading but
its still big in value because of the its current 53 power.</span>
Hope this helps!
Answer:
option (b) 0.0228
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Sample size, n = 100
Sample mean, μ = $20
Standard deviation, s = $5
Confidence interval = between $19 and $21
Now,
Confidence interval = μ ± 
thus,
Upper limit of the Confidence interval = μ +
or
$21 = $20 + 
or
z = 2
Now,
P(z = 2) = 0.02275 [From standard z vs p value table]
or
P(z = 2) ≈ 0.0228
Hence,
the correct answer is option (b) 0.0228
