Blababa [14]3 years ago

Answer:

$24 and $16

Step-by-step explanation:

well let’s go through this step by step.

we have $40 which is the regular price, but not only do you want to find what 60% of 40 is, but you want to find out how big the difference is between the 2, in dollars. But i believe we can do that.

So let’s just think. Do you know how to get a percent of something? If so, ignore this next part.  If not, all you want to do is take 40 x 0.60. or whatever number you need. if it’s out of 100, that’s what you would do.

So now that we know how to get a percent of something, let’s find 60% of 40.

40 x 0.60 gives us 24, or in this case it’d be $24.

Great! we found the discount! now all we need to do is find out the difference.

All we need to do from here is take 40 - 24. what is 40 - 24?

16!

Now you’re done! the discount brings it down to $24 and the difference between the starting price and the discount price is 16 dollars.

i hope this was able to help you!

mart [117]

Answer:

Sampling bias

Step-by-step explanation:

Bias refers a prominent problem in statistical analysis whereby one or more analytical factor are favored than the other during an analysis which should be made random. The problem. With Graham's dissertation study is the fact that he failed to randomlyvplace his subjects or observation in the study groups, favoring a particular group with non random subset. When randomization is ejected or missing from an analysis or study, it becomes less and less representative. Here, allotting early Arrivals Into the treatment group has introduced a sampling bias as those who came later, this will also leads to less reproducibility of experiment.

Simplify the expression, only odds 9-17
Elodia [21]

All exercises involve the same concept, so I'll show you how to do the first, then you can apply the exact same logic to all the others.

The first thing you need to know is that, when a certain quantity multiplies a parenthesis, you can distribute that number to every element in the parenthesis. This means that

a(b+c) = ab+ac

So, a is multiplying the parenthesis involving b and c, and we distributed it: a multiplies both  b and c in the final result.

Secondly, you have to know how to recognize like terms, because they are the only terms you can sum. Two terms can be summed if they have the same literal expression. So, for example, you cannot sum 3x+2y, and neither 5x^2-4x exponents count.

But you can su, for example,

5x-3x = (5-3)x = 2x

or

23xy^2z^6 - 17xy^2z^6 = 6xy^2z^6

So, take for example exercise 9:

1.2(7x-5y) - (10y-4.3x)

We distribute the 1.2 through the first parenthesis:

1.2(7x-5y) = 1.2 \cdot 7x - 1.2 \cdot 5y = 8.4x-6y

And you can distribute the negative sign through the second parenthesis (it counts as a -1 to distribute):

- (10y-4.3x) = -10y+4.3x

So, the expression becomes

8.4x-6y-10y+4.3x

Now sum like terms:

(8.4+4.3)x + (-6-10)y = 12.7x - 16y
