After the store gives 20% off sale, the expression of the item at price p can be written as, p-0.2=0.8p.

Given to us

A store is having a 20% off sale.

The sale price of an item with price p is p – 0. 2p.

<h3>What is the total price of the item?</h3>

We know that for any item the price can be 100%(1.00) of itself, therefore, the price of the item will be p.

<h3>What is the expression is equivalent to?</h3>

We know that for any item the price can be 100%(1), therefore, after giving 20%(0.2) off sale, the price will be 80%(1-0.2 = 0.8) of the original.

Thus, the expression is equivalent to

(100\%)p-(20\%)p  = 80\%p\\\\1p-0.2p = 0.8p\\\\p-0.2p=0.8p

Hence, after the store gives 20% off sale, the expression of the item at price p can be written as, p-0.2=0.8p.

The Earth has a diameter
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

<em>L = 24,873.6 miles</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Length of the Circumference</u>

Given a circle of radius r, the length of the circumference, or line surrounding the shape is:

L =2\pi\cdot r

The Earth has a diameter of 7,917.5 miles. The radius is half the diameter:

r=7,917.5/2=3,958.75 miles

Assuming a plane flies around the equator at ground level, the distance it would travel is:

L =2\pi\cdot 3,958.75\ miles

L = 24,873.6 miles

Human body temperatures have a mean of 98.20° F and a standard deviation of 0.62° F. Sally's temperature can be described by z =
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Sally's temperature is 97.27 °F.

Step-by-step explanation:

All the information given in the question tells us that the human body temperatures are normally distributed with a population's mean = 98.20°F and a standard deviation = 0.62°F.

The question gives us Sally's temperature in a <em>z-score</em>. We have to remember that the <em>standard normal distribution</em> is a particular case of a <em>normal distribution</em> where the mean = 0 and the standard deviation = 1.

Using <em>the standard normal distribution,</em> we can determine every probability associated with a normal distribution "transforming" the raw scores, coming from normally distributed data, into z-scores.

A z-score gives us the distance from the population's mean and is in standard deviation units. So, a z = 1.5 tells us that the value is 1.5 standard deviations <em>above the mean</em>. Conversely, a z = -1.5 tells us that the raw score is also 1.5 standard deviation from the mean, but in the opposite direction, that is, <em>below the mean</em>.

The formula for a z-score is as follows:

\\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} (1)

Where

\\ x\;is\;the\;raw\;score.

\\ \mu\;is\;the\;population\;mean.

\\ \sigma\;is\;the\;population\;standard\;deviation.

Then to find <em>x </em>(or the raw score, that is, Sally's temperature), we need to solve the formula (1) for it to finally solve the question.

Then

\\ \mu = 98.20^\circF °F

\\ \sigma = 0.62^\circF °F

\\ z = -1.5

Thus (with no units)

\\ -1.5 = \frac{x - 98.20}{0.62}

\\ (-1.5*0.62) = x - 98.20

\\ (-1.5*0.62) + 98.20 = x

\\ x = (-1.5*0.62) + 98.20

\\ -0.93 + 98.20

\\ x = 97.27°F

Thus, Sally's temperature is \\ x = 97.27°F (rounding the answer to the nearest hundredth).
