First translate the question into an equation.
"What percent" means x/100, "of 40" means times 40, "is 14" equals 14.
So we have (x)(40) = 14 or 40x = 14.
Dividing both sides by 40, we find that x = 0.35.
Now, we want to write our answer as a percent.
So we move the decimal 2 places to the right and we have 35%.
Answer:
Probabilty of not poor= 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
total of 11332 bonds.
7311 are good risk.
1182 are medium risk.
Poor risk
= total risk-(good risk+ medium risk)
= 11332-(7311+1182)
= 11332-8493
= 2839.
Poor risk = 2839
Probabilty that the ball choosen at random is not poor= 1 - probability that the ball is poor
Probability of poor = 2839/11332
Probabilty of poor= 0.2505
Probabilty that the ball choosen at random is not poor= 1- 0.2505
= 0.7495
To two decimal place= 0.75
1/2 (Base x height) = area
1/2 (4*x)=10
2x=10
X=5
The height is 5 units
Multiply the tops and multiply the bottoms
Aka
5*21
-------
7*25
And simplify
So, these are actually pretty simple once you learn the equality used to solve for "x" and when to implement this method. You can use this equality to solve for a segment "x" anytime that two secant lines cutting through a circle come from the same point outside the circle.
Secant: by geometric definition is just a straight line that cuts a curve into multiple pieces.
I did one of them for you hopefully you can use my work for "a" to help you solve for "b".
For a. I got x=7.
