Step-by-step explanation:

7.50= (1 + x/100 ) × 5.50

7.50/ 5.50 = 1+x/100

x/100 = 0.36

x= 36.36%

The graphs below have the same shape. What is the equation of the blue<br> graph?

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

Parent function (in red) graph is represented by,

f(x) = x²

If this function is translated by 'a' units to the right, rule to be followed,

f(x) → f(x - a)

If the parent function is shifted by 4 units to the right (blue graph), the new function will be,

g(x) = f(x - 4)

g(x) = (x - 4)²

Therefore, Option (A) will be the correct option.

Software to detect fraud in consumer phone cards tracks the number of metropolitan areas where calls originate each day. It is f

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

0.999987

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The user is a legitimate one = E₁

The user is a fraudulent one = E₂

The same user originates calls from two metropolitan areas = A

Use Bay's Theorem to solve the problem

P(E₁) = 0.0131% = 0.000131

P(E₂) = 1 - P(E₁) = 0.999869

P(A/E₁) = 3% = 0.03

P(A/E₂) = 30% = 0.3

Given a randomly chosen user originates calls from two or more metropolitan, The probability that the user is fraudulent user is :

$P(E_2/A)=\frac{P(E_2)\times P(A/E_2)}{P(E_1)\times P(A/E_1)+P(E_2)\times P(A/E_2)}$

$=\frac{(0.999869)(0.3)}{(0.000131)(0.03)+(0.999869)(0.3)}$

$\frac{0.2999607}{0.00000393+0.2999607}$

$\frac{0.2999607}{0.29996463}$

= 0.999986898 ≈ 0.999987

Well, I have to write 20 words, so... I think this is enough.

<h3>Answer: Choice D</h3><h3>m = n</h3><h3>b = sqrt(pi)*a</h3>

=====================================================

Explanation:

Each circle has a radius of 'a'. So r = a.

The area of each circle is pi*r^2 = pi*a^2

The area of each square with side length b is b^2

The two stacks have the same volume only when the circle area is equal to the square area, so whenever pi*a^2 = b^2 is true.

Solving for b leads to b = sqrt(pi*a^2) = sqrt(pi)*a

The stacks must also be the same height for the volumes to be the same, so m = n as well.
