Answer:

80% of the people picked chocolate cake

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add the people (Not including her) up in the party, you will get 50 people in which both include chocolate cake and coconut cake. We can see that 40 people picked chocolate and 10 for coconut. 40 of 50 is 80% because 10% of 50 is 5 so 40/5 = 8, thus making it 80%. Hope this helps!

A certain identification number is a sequence of five digits. (a) How many identification numbers are possible? Incorrect: Your
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

100,000

200

65,610

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Identification number = 5 digits

A.) number of identification numbers possible :

Possible digits : 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

Total digits possible = 10

Each digit can be any of the 10;

Hence,

10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 = 100,000 possibilities

B.) How many of them begin with either 023 or 003

023 or 003

0 or 0 = 1 option

2 or 0 = 2 options

3 or 3 = 1 option

Other digits will have any of the 10 options :

1 * 2 * 1 * 10 * 10 = 200

3.) if no two digits that follow each other are the same, then only the first digit has 10 options with the other 4 each having 9

10 * 9 * 9 * 9 * 9 = 65,610

1. A newspaper headline claims: "Apple spends far less on Research & Development
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

The mistaken assumption is that Apple spends "far less" on Research and Development than any of its rivals.

b)

The assumption is incorrect because it took cognizance of the percentage used, and not the actual money spent. In truth, Apple generates far more income than the other two rivals. With Apple generating over $100bn in the said time span, and Google generating $37bn. At the end of the day, Apple spends $2.1bn on Research and Development, while Google spends $5.3bn on the same. This is quite close than the quoted distance of 14% - 2%

c)

Yes, I think so. But only when the 3 companies generate almost the same revenue.

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The answer is 31/100

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the decimal number to a fraction by placing the decimal number over a power of ten. Since there are  2  numbers to the right of the decimal point, place the decimal number over  10 2 ( 100 ) . Next, add the whole number to the left of the decimal.

Kaitlin will donate up to $460 to charity. The money will be divided between two charities: the City Youth Fund and the Educatio
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The question states "up to $460" in charity, which means it can be less than or equal to 460, but not any higher. Then,

$460 to charity (max)

$160+ to Educational (160 being the minimum)

Education is 3x (or higher) than City.

If we denote x to City, and y to Educational, then,

x + y = 460 . And we know that y >= 3x

x + 3x = 4x = 460

x = 115. This means when she donates $115 to City, she will donate 3x (or $345) to Educational. These are the max values; she will not donate higher than $460.

A minimum requirement was placed on Educational earlier. When y = 160, x will be y/3, or $53.34. (This isn't very meaningful, but: This means she donated 213.34, which is still less than $460)

Therefore, x (which is City) can be the range of $53-ish dollars (depending on your region/graph) but no higher than $115.

y (which is Educational) will be as low as $160, but no higher than $345.

Hope this helps

Scott took 4 2/5 hours to clean the bathroom. He took 2 1/4 hours to clean the den. How much longer did it take Scott to clean t
Anit [1.1K]
Find the difference between the two times

= 4 2/5 - 2 1/4
convert each mixed number to an improper fraction

= 22/5 - 9/4
change to common denominator (20)

= 88/20 - 45/20
subtract numerators only

= 43/20
change back to mixed number

= 2 3/20


ANSWER: It took 2 3/20 hours longer to clean the bathroom.

Hope this helps! :)
