Answer
a. The backpack is $4.50
b. The sweatshirt is $2.70
Step-by-step explanation:
a. 30 x 0.15 = 4.50 (The 0.15 is from the price you are actually paying for the item. Because the item is 85% off, you are paying for 15% of the usual price. 15% as a decimal is 0.15 so you multiply that to the original price to find the amount u will pay.)
b. 18 x 0.15 = 2.70
Answer:
Kyle would save more using his 15% off of $1000 coupon.
Explanation:
15 ÷ 100 • 1000 = 150
1000 - 150 = $850
$150 is the amount the 15% coupon took off.
$850 is the amount Kyle will pay.
vs.
1000 - 80 = $920
Answer:
The total length of rebar used is 21.66 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Ivan had cut a reinforcing bar in 19 pieces and length of each bar is 1.14 meters.
Number of pieces = 19
Length of each piece = 1.14
We need to find the total length of reinforcing bar.
To calculate the total length we will multiply number of pieces with length of each piece.
Hence,
Total length of rebar = Number of pieces × Length of each piece = 
Rounding to nearest hundred = 21.66 m
Hence the total length of reinforcing bar is 21.66 meters.
Answer:
19.77% of average city temperatures are higher than that of Cairo
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:

What percentage of average city temperatures are higher than that of Cairo?
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 21.4.



has a pvalue of 0.8023
1 - 0.8023 = 0.1977
19.77% of average city temperatures are higher than that of Cairo
