Answer:

82.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

60 divided by 340=0.17647058823

Multiply that by 100 and you get 17.647058823

Next, round and you get 17.65

100-17.65=82.35

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

<h2>no real solution</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$-3x^2-4x-4=0\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\3x^2+4x+4=0\\\\\text{use the quadratic formula:}\\\\\text{for}\ ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\\text{if}\ b^2-4ac0,\ \text{then an equation has two solutions:}\ x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\text{We have}\ a=3,\ b=4,\ c=4.\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\b^2-4ac=4^2-4(3)(4)=16-48=-32$

From a group of 12 students, we want to select a random sample of 4 students to serve on a university committee. How many combin

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

495 combinations of 4 students can be selected.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order of the students in the sample is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

How many combination of random samples of 4 students can be selected?

4 from a set of 12. So

$C_{n,x} = \frac{12!}{4!(8)!} = 495$

495 combinations of 4 students can be selected.

PLEASE HELP<br><br> Which of the following is the inverse of f(x)=3-x/5

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

f^-1(x) = 3 - 5x, second option

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the inverse simply interchange the variables and solve for y;

f(x) = 3 - x / 5 -> Interchange the variables

x = 3 - y/5 -> Multiply either side by 5

5x = 3 - y -> Subtract three from either side

- y = 5x - 3 -> Divide either side by - 1

y = - 5x + 3

Your solution is f^-1(x) = 3 - 5x
