“Find 24% of $240.” I keep trying and getting a different answer each time, please help

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

$57.60

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you want to do is convert 24% to a decimal. To do this you just need to take the current decimal place and move it 2 places to the left. Since this percentage is a whole number the decimal is just after the 4.

(0.24)

Multiply that decimal by the number you want to find the percentage of

$240 * .24 = $57.60

If f(x) is an exponential function where f(-1.5) 26 and

mariarad [96]

Answer:

$f(10) = 1147.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(-1.5) = 26$

$f(5.5) = 7$

Required

f(10)

An exponential function is represented as:

$f(x) = ab^x$

$f(-1.5) = 26$ impleies that:

$26 = ab^{-1.5}$ --- (1)

$f(5.5) = 7$ implies that

$7 = ab^{5.5}$ --- (2)

Divide (2) by (1)

$26/7 = ab^{-1.5}/ab^{5.5}$

$3.71429 = b^{-1.5+5.5}$

$3.71429 = b^{4}$

Take 4th root

$b = 1.39$

Substitute $b = 1.39$ in $26 = ab^{-1.5}$

$26 = a * 1.39^{-1.5}$

$26 = a * 0.6102$

Solve for (a)

$a = 26/0.6102$

$a = 42.61$

f(10) is calculated as:

$f(10) = ab^{10}$

$f(10) = 42.61 * 1.39^{10}$

$f(10) = 1147.25$

A researcher reports a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of Drosophila in a population with mutation Adh-F to be [0.34,

Fantom [35]

Answer:

$0.34 \leq p \leq 0.38$

For this case we can conclude that with 98% of confidence the true proportion of Drosophila in a population would be between 0.34 and 0.38.

But that doesn't means that we have 98% of PROBABILITY that the true proportion would be between 0.34 and 0.38, because we are constructing a confidence interval with sample data and we can't analyze this using probability.

Then the best answer is:

2. False

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have a confidence interval for the proportion of Drosophila in a population with mutation Adh-F to be given by:

$0.34 \leq p \leq 0.38$

For this case we can conclude that with 98% of confidence the true proportion of Drosophila in a population would be between 0.34 and 0.38.

But that doesn't means that we have 98% of PROBABILITY that the true proportion would be between 0.34 and 0.38, because we are constructing a confidence interval with sample data and we can't analyze this using probability.

Then the best answer is:

One warehouse had 185 tons of coal, another one had 237 tons. The first warehouse delivered 15 tons of coal to its clients daily

lianna [129]

Answer:

In 9 days will the second warehouse have 1.5 times more coal than the first one

Step-by-step explanation:

The coal left in warehouses after x days can be found using the equation:

first warehouse: 185 - 15x

second warehouse= 237-18x

Let the second warehouse have 1.5 times more coal than the first one after n days then

1.5 ×(185 - 15n)=237-18n which gives:
277,5-22,5n=237-18n and
40,5=4,5n
9=n
