Answer:

1.8% or 1.818181%

Step-by-step explanation:

If in a batch of 440 water purifiers, we find 8 to be defective.

Then the probability of the next purifier being defective is 8/440

In percentage = 8/440 * 100

=> 8/44 * 10

=> 8/22 * 5

=> 40/22

=> 20 / 11

20/11 is roughly 1.8181818

Rounding it to the nearest tenth, we get 1.8%

If my answer helped, kindly mark me as the brainliest!!

Thank You!!

99 POINTS PLS HELP Write the equation in slope-intercept form. 4x + 3y = 15
Kisachek [45]

To write in slope intercept form solve the equation for y:

4x + 3y =15

Subtract 4x from both sides:

3y = -4x +15

Now get Y by itself by divide all terms by 3:

y = -4/3x + 5

the city of brice is planning to build a skate park. An architect designed the area shown at the right. in the plan, the perimet
Amiraneli [1.4K]

The actual skate park's perimeter is 130 inches.

Explanation:

Step 1; Assume the initial garden has a width of y inches. It is given that the length is 25 inches. The perimeter of any given rectangle is twice the sum of the length and the width of the same rectangle. The initial perimeter is given as 80 inches.

Perimeter = 2 × (length of the rectange + width of the rectangle).

80 = 2 × (25 + y), 40 = 25 + y, y = 40 - 25 = 15

So the initial park has a width of 15 inches.

Step 2; Now we calculate the actual skate park's perimeter. The length is given as 50 inches and the width was found to be 15 inches.

Perimeter = 2 × (length of the rectange + width of the rectangle).

Perimeter = 2 × (50 + 15) = 2 × 65 = 130 inches.

#8).
The volume of a cone is      (1/3) (pi) (radius of the round end)² (height)

That's the volume of the ice cream cone alone.

The volume of a sphere is    (4/3) (pi) (radius)³

The glob of ice cream on top is 1/2 of a sphere.
The sphere and the cone in this problem both have the same radius.

#9).
The volume of a cylinder is        (pi) (radius of the round end)² (height)

#10).
Another cylinder !
The volume of a cylinder is        (pi) (radius of the round end)² (height)

A rectangle has an area of 240 square meters and a width of 15 meters.
fredd [130]
Area is found by taking the length time width or A=lw

240=L x 15    divide both sides by 15

Length = 16 meters
