The answer to your question would be 216.

If 54 makes up 25 percent, then x makes up 100 percent. Using this phrase we can write a proportion or use equivalent fractions.

54/25= x/100


A whole is 100 percent and we know 25 percent. Then it is simple to go from 25 percent to 100 percent. Simply multiply 25 times 4 to get 100 percent. Since we multiplied the denominator by four, then we have to multiply the numerator (54) by 4. 54 times 4 is 216.

25% is 1/4.

This means that 1/4 of the books in the library is 54, so just multiply 54 by 4, which gives you 100%, or all of the books. 54 times 4 is equal to 216, so there are 216 books in the library.

A small business owner estimates his mean daily profit as $970 with a standard deviation of $129. His shop is open 102 days a ye
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The probability that the shopkeeper's annual profit will not exceed $100,000 is 0.2090.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have a population with mean <em>μ</em> and standard deviation <em>σ</em> and we select appropriately huge random samples (<em>n</em> ≥ 30) from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sum of values of <em>X</em>, i.e ∑<em>X</em>, will be approximately normally distributed.  

Then, the mean of the distribution of the sum of values of X is given by,  

 \mu_{x}=n\mu

And the standard deviation of the distribution of the sum of values of X is given by,  

 \sigma_{x}=\sqrt{n}\sigma

The information provided is:

<em>μ</em> = $970

<em>σ</em> = $129

<em>n</em> = 102

Since the sample size is quite large, i.e. <em>n</em> = 102 > 30, the Central Limit Theorem can be used to approximate the distribution of the shopkeeper's annual profit.

Then,

\sum X\sim N(\mu_{x}=98940,\ \sigma_{x}=1302.84)

Compute the probability that the shopkeeper's annual profit will not exceed $100,000 as follows:

P (\sum X \leq  100,000) =P(\frac{\sum X-\mu_{x}}{\sigma_{x}}

                              =P(Z

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that the shopkeeper's annual profit will not exceed $100,000 is 0.2090.

Answer:

The equation for the volume of a rectangular prism is V=whl or width x height x length. The width is 7/2, the height is 7/5, and the length is 5. Multiply all of these numbers to get 49/2 or 24.5.

One angle of a triangle is 50 degrees greater than the smallest​ angle, and the third angle is 10 degrees less than twice the sm
tia_tia [17]
All 3 angles of a triangle must equal to 180. You can simply set up an equation to solve this and set it equal to 180.

Angle 1 - 50 + x
Angle 2 - x
Angle 3 - 2x -10

50+x+x+2x-10=180
4x+40=180
4x=140
x=35

Angle 1 = 50+35= 85
Angle 2 = 35
Angle 3 = 2(35) - 10 = 60

60+35+85=180
