A company manufactures cell phones. In August, a random sample of 125 cell phones was inspected, and 3 phones were found to be d
german

Answer:

192

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many phones are expected to be defective, we need to represent the values in a fraction.

\dfrac{x}{8000}=\dfrac{3}{125}

x = number of defective phones

Now we can solve this using algebra.

To get the value of x we need to multiply both sides by 8000 to leave x alone.

x=\dfrac{3}{125}(8000)

x=0.024(8000)

x=192

So around 192 cell phones are expected to be defective out of 8000 phones.

12-2(n-1)=-18<br><br> aa help plzz
Luda [366]

Answer:

n=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

12−2(n−1)=−18

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

12−2(n−1)=−18

12+(−2)(n)+(−2)(−1)=−18(Distribute)

12+−2n+2=−18

(−2n)+(12+2)=−18(Combine Like Terms)

−2n+14=−18

−2n+14=−18

Step 2: Subtract 14 from both sides.

−2n+14−14=−18−14

−2n=−32

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.

−2n /−2  =  −32 /−2

n=16

Write an equation for this graph please help me I'm begging u
bekas [8.4K]
First, solve for the slope. This can be found by looking at the y and x intercepts. At x = 0, y = 1.5. At x = 2, y = 0.

Slope is defined as Δy/Δx, or the change in y over the change in x. This means that in order to calculate the slope, you must find the difference between the values of y and divide it by the difference in the values of x for the two points to determine the slope between them.

(0 - 1.5)/(2-0) = (-1.5)/2 = -0.75 or -3/4

Now that you have the slope, we can write the equation in slope intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope we calculated and b is the y intercept, 1.5.

y = (-3/4)x + 1.5

12. A carpenter made two tables. The first table is 4 feet
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

a. True

b. True

c. False

d. False

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First Table</u>

Length=10 feet, Width=4 feet

Area =10 X 4=40 Square Feet

<u>Second Table</u>

The second table is half as long  as the first table.

Length =0.5 X 10 =5 feet

Area=5 X Width= 5w

The area of the second table is one  fourth the area of the first table.

Area of Second Table =\frac{1}{4} X Area of first table

5w=\frac{1}{4} X 40

5w=10

Width of the Second table, w=2 feet

The following are true.

(a)The width of the second  table is 2 feet.

(b) The area of the second  table is 10 square feet.
