Answer: It's 65.9

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>decreased by 7.5%</h3>

<h3>means 100% - 7.5% = 92.5%</h3>

<h3>92.5% * x = 61</h3>

<h3>x= 61 / 92.5%</h3>

<h3>x = 65.9459</h3>

<h3>to the nearest tenth :</h3>

<h3>original number is 65.9</h3><h3>Hope this helps have a awesome day/night❤️✨</h3>

Out of 100 employees at a company, 92 employees either work part time or work 5 days each week. There are 14 employees who work
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer: 0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

OpenStudy (judygreeneyes):

Hi - If you are working on this kind of problem, you probably know the formula for the probability of a union of two events. Let's call working part time Event A, and let's call working 5 days a week Event B. Let's look at the information we are given. We are told that 14 people work part time, so that is P(A) = 14/100 - 0.14 . We are told that 80 employees work 5 days a week, so P(B) = 80/100 = .80 . We are given the union (there are 92 employees who work either one or the other), which is the union, P(A U B) = 92/100 = .92 .. The question is asking for the probability of someone working both part time and fll time, which is the intersection of events A and B, or P(A and B). If you recall the formula for the probability of the union, it is

P(A U B) = P(A) +P(B) - P(A and B).

The problem has given us each of these pieces except the intersection, so we can solve for it,

If you plug in P(A U B) = 0.92 and P(A) = 0.14, and P(B) = 0.80, you can solve for P(A and B), which will give you the answer.

I hope this helps you.

Which graph shows the solution of the inequality −|x − 2| + 9 &gt; 6?
mariarad [96]

answer is -1 < x < 5

-|x - 2|+ 9 > 6

Rearrange the terms

-|x - 2| > 6 - 9

-|x - 2| > - 3

then divide both sides of the inequality by the co- efficient of variable

|x - 2| < 3

convert the absolute inequality to standard inequality

-3 <x - 2 < 3

separate compound inequalities into system of inequality

{x - 2}> -3

{x - 2 < 3}

Rearrange variable to the left side of the equation

x > -3 + 2                    

calculate the sum or difference

x > -1

x -2 < 3

Rearrange variable to the left side of the equation

x < 3 + 2

calculate the sum or difference

x < 5

x > -1 and x < 5

Find intersection

-1 < x < 5

Equations and inequalities are both mathematical sentences formed by relating two expressions to each other. In an equation, the two expressions are deemed equal which is shown by the symbol =. Where as in an inequality, the two expressions are not necessarily equal which is indicated by the symbols: >, <, ≤ or ≥.

Lily is a lilypad in a small pond. Lily doubles in size each day. On the 20th day she covers the whole pond. On what day was Lil
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

19th day

Step-by-step explanation:

So say Lily was 1 when Lily was planted

First day Lily is 2

Second day Lily is 4

Third day Lily is 8

etc...

See the pattern?

The pattern is 2^x

On the 20th day, Lily was 2^20

So when Lily was half, Lily was 2^20 / 2

2^x = 2^20 / 2

2^x = 2^19

On the 19th day, Lily was half.
