Based on the information given the original size of the bottle is 17.5 ounces.

Using this formula

Original size of the bottle =New bottle size / Percentage increase

Where:

New bottle size=18.4 ounces

Percentage increase=(1+0.05)=1.05

Let plug in the formula

Original size of the bottle=18.4/(1+0.05)

Original size of the bottle=18.4/1.05

Original size of the bottle=17.5 ounces

Inconclusion the original size of the bottle is 17.5 ounces.

A computer can be classified as either cutting dash edge or ancient. Suppose that 99​% of computers are classified as ancient.​(
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a )

probability of a computer being ancient = .99

probability of a computer being cutting-edge =.01

probability of two selected  computer being old

= .99 x .99

= .98 or 98%

b )

probability of 5 selected computers being old

= .99 x .99 x .99 x .99 x .99

= .95 or 95%

c )

probability that at least one of the five selected computers is cutting-edge

= 1 - probability of 5 selected computers being old

= 1 - .95

= .05

5 %

The strength of the association rule is known as _____ and is calculated as the ratio of the confidence of an association rule t
ella [17]

Answer:

Lift

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding patterned and relationship between large sets of data can be obtained using the association rule as it finds insights, relationships and trends within sets of data variables. Lift is a parmater of interest whichbus used when performing analysis on association between variables in datasets. The Lift is literally the ratio of confidence to expected confidence. Where, the confidence of association is divided by the expected confidence (benchmark confidence).

What does g(n) equal
NikAS [45]
We are given the function: 
g(n) = 3 (\frac{7}{5} )^n

We need to find what g(-3) equals. 

What the question is asking is what is the resulting value after you plug in -3 as n to the function. Meaning you replace the n that is in the function with -3. 

g(-3) = 3( \frac{7}{5})^{-3}

Remember back to the order of operations. 

Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

For this problem we can keep the fraction as it is (unless you are permitted to use a calculator... if that is the case then just plug all that into a calculator) and keep going to the exponent. 

Negative exponents make fractions FLIP. So our fraction will look like this: (\frac{7}{5})^{-3} =  (\frac{5}{7})^{3}

Now that we have it without the negative exponent we need to distribute the cubed power to each number in the fraction (which is essentially the same as saying this: \frac{5}{7}* \frac{5}{7}* \frac{5}{7})

\frac{5^{3}}{7^{3}} =  \frac{125}{343}

We ARE NOT done! We still have this left: 
g(-3) = 3 \frac{125}{343}
Multiplying by 3 you get the following: 

\frac{375}{343}

So what does g(-3) equal? This right here: 

\frac{375}{343}

Which value for x makes the sentence true? 1/10 + x = 1/7
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

3/70

Step-by-step explanation:

change 1/10 and 1/7 so the denominator (bottom number) is the same.  1/10= 7/70 and 1/7= 10/70 so you need 3/70 to make the two numbers equal.

Use pascal's triangle to expand the binomial<br> (d-5y)^6<br><br> please show work
Ratling [72]
Pascals triangle to the 6th:
1                                     x^0
1 1                                  x^1
1 2 1                               x^2
1 3 3 1                           x^3
1 4 6 4 1                        x^4
1 5 10 10 5 1                x^5
1 6 15 20 15 6 1          x^6<span>

</span>the problem is to the 6th power so your going to use the 6th row of pascals triangle (don't count the first row). these numbers represent the coefficients of the variables

1(d-5y)^6 + 6(d-5y)^5 + 15(d-5y)^4 + 20(d-5y)^3 + 15(d-5y)^2 + 6(d-5y) + 1
then simplify
