Jacob is a plumber. Due to increased material costs, he puts all his prices up by 7%. He now chargers R320 per hour for her serv

ices. What did he charge before he put his prices up?​

Answer:

R290.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = charge before he put his prices up

New charge = R320

Percentage increase in price = 7%

x + 7% of x = 320

x + 0.07 * x = 320

x + 0.07x = 320

1.07x = 320

x = 320/1.07

x = 299.06542056074

Approximately

x = R290.1

Charge before he put his prices up = R290.1

There are 5 green jelly beans, 7 red jelly beans and 8 yellow jelly beans. What percent of the jelly beans are red?
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

8 + 5 + 7 = 20

50% = 10

25% = 5

10% = 2

5% = 1

25% + 10% = 5+2

35% = 7

To decrease the impact on the environment, factory chimneys must be high enough to allow pollutants to dissipate over a larger a
Komok [63]

Answer:

The probability hat the sample mean height for the 40 chimneys is greater than 102 meters is 0.1469.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable <em>X</em> be defined as the height of chimneys in factories.

The mean height is, <em>μ</em> = 100 meters.

The standard deviation of heights is, <em>σ</em> = 12 meters.

It is provided that a random sample of <em>n</em> = 40 chimney heights is obtained.

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have an unknown population with mean <em>μ</em> and standard deviation <em>σ</em> and appropriately huge random samples (<em>n</em> > 30) are selected from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed.

Then, the mean of the distribution of sample means is given by,

\mu_{\bar x}=\mu

And the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means is given by,

\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Since the sample selected is quite large, i.e. <em>n</em> = 40 > 30, the central limit theorem can be used to approximate the sampling distribution of sample mean heights of chimneys.

\bar X\sim N(\mu_{\bar x},\ \sigma^{2}_{\bar x})

Compute the probability hat the sample mean height for the 40 chimneys is greater than 102 meters as follows:

P(\bar X>102)=P(\frac{\bar X-\mu_{\bar x}}{\sigma_{\bar x}})>\frac{102-100}{12/\sqrt{40}})

                    =P(Z>1.05)\\=1-P(Z

*Use a <em>z</em>-table fr the probability.

Thus, the probability hat the sample mean height for the 40 chimneys is greater than 102 meters is 0.1469.

PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
DanielleElmas [232]

Option A:

(x-5)^{2}+(y-3)^{2}=16

Solution:

Given data:

Center of the circle is (5, 3).

Radius of the circle = 4

To find the equation of the circle:

The general form of the equation of a circle in centre-radius format is

(x-h)^{2}+(y-k)^{2}=r^{2}

where (h, k) is the centre of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

Substitute the given values in the equation of a circle formula:

(x-5)^{2}+(y-3)^{2}=4^{2}

(x-5)^{2}+(y-3)^{2}=16

The equation of the given circle is (x-5)^{2}+(y-3)^{2}=16.

Hence Option A is the correct answer.
