What's a hundredth?
it's like this:
0.01
so where is the hundred place in this number?
389.9<em>9</em>3
it's the 9 that i made boldface
so to round to this number we delete everything after it, asking ourselves if the number after it is 4 or less? yes! so we can just delete it without changing anyway
389.99
we need help? can somebody answer this question
(x cookies) / (23 students - (12/2) students) = 2 cookies per student
[x / (23 - 6)] cookies per student = 2 cookies per student
23 students * (2 cookies per students) - 12 cookies = x cookies
The "students" unit cancels
46 cookies - 12 cookies = x cookies
x cookies = 34 cookies
Sum is addition, less than is subtraction, equals is is, division is of and multiplication is per
Answer:
No, the on-time rate of 74% is not correct.
Solution:
As per the question:
Sample size, n = 60
The proportion of the population, P' = 74% = 0.74
q' = 1 - 0.74 = 0.26
We need to find the probability that out of 60 trains, 38 or lesser trains arrive on time.
Now,
The proportion of the given sample, p = 
Therefore, the probability is given by:
![P(p\leq 0.634) = [\frac{p - P'}{\sqrt{\frac{P'q'}{n}}}]\leq [\frac{0.634 - 0.74}{\sqrt{\frac{0.74\times 0.26}{60}}}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28p%5Cleq%200.634%29%20%3D%20%5B%5Cfrac%7Bp%20-%20P%27%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7BP%27q%27%7D%7Bn%7D%7D%7D%5D%5Cleq%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B0.634%20-%200.74%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B0.74%5Ctimes%200.26%7D%7B60%7D%7D%7D%5D)
P![(p\leq 0.634) = P[z\leq -1.87188]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28p%5Cleq%200.634%29%20%3D%20P%5Bz%5Cleq%20-1.87188%5D)
P![(p\leq 0.634) = P[z\leq -1.87] = 0.0298](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28p%5Cleq%200.634%29%20%3D%20P%5Bz%5Cleq%20-1.87%5D%20%3D%200.0298)
Therefore, Probability of the 38 or lesser trains out of 60 trains to be on time is 0.0298 or 2.98 %
Thus the on-time rate of 74% is incorrect.
