0.5% or 1/2% of say "x" is 250, whilst "x" is the 100%.

\begin{array}{ccll} \%&amount\\ \cline{1-2} \frac{1}{2}&250\\[1em] 100&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{~~ \frac{1}{2}~~}{100}=\cfrac{250}{x}\implies \cfrac{1}{200}=\cfrac{250}{x}\implies x = 50000

Answer:

1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert that percentage to either fraction or decimal:

0.5

%

=

0.005

2) Simply multiply your result by the total number

which in this case is 250:

0.005

×

250

=

1.25

If the area of a rectangle is 12cm2 what could its length be and its width?
lawyer [7]
Hello, 

We know that th formula for the area of a rectangle is: A=b*h
Now, the problem in this excercise is that there is no restriction on the values that b and h can take, so, they can take any value provided that it meets:  b*h=12 cm^{2}
for example:
lenght=  \frac{12}{3}cm \,\,\,\,\,\,and\,\,\,\,width= 3 cm \\  \\ A=\frac{12}{3}cm*3cm \\ A=12 cm^{2}

But if they can only take intenger values, what we have to do is to descompose 12, and then we can analyze the possible solutions.

12   |  2
  6   |  2
  3   |  3
  1

12= 2 *2*3

first option:
12=4*3

Answer: lenght= 4cm   and   width= 3cm  or vice versa

second option:
12=2*6

Answer: lenght= 6cm   and   width= 2cm  <span>or vice versa</span>

The lifetime of a certain type of battery is normally distributed with mean value 15 hours and standard deviation 1 hour. There
KIM [24]

Answer:

If the lifetime of batteries in the packet is 40.83 hours or more then, it exceeds for 5% of all packages.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 15

Standard Deviation, σ = 1

Sample size = 4

Total lifetime of 4 batteries = 40 hours

We are given that the distribution of lifetime is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Standard error due to sampling:

\displaystyle\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt4} = 0.5

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.05

P(X > x)  = 0.05

P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 40}{0.5})=0.05  

= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 40}{0.5})=0.05  

=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 40}{0.5})=0.95  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

\displaystyle\frac{x - 40}{0.5} = 1.64\\x = 40.825 \approx 40.83  

Hence, if the lifetime of batteries in the packet is 40.83 hours or more then, it exceeds for 5% of all packages.

The perimeter of the triangle below is 10x - 3<br><br> Show how to solve
bezimeni [28]
10x - 3 = x + 2 + 2x - 1
10x - 3 = 3x + 1
-3x on both sides
7x - 3 = 1
-1 on both sides
7x - 4

(Check 7x - 4 by adding them all up to equal 10x - 3)
x + 2 + 2x - 1 + 7x - 4 = 10x - 3
combine liked terms
10x - 3 = 10x - 3

Answer:
D) 7x - 4
