So for a mother ages 28 , there is a chance of 1 in 1000 , but at the age of 38 there is a chance of 1 in 200 . to work out how many times more likely it is for the 38 year old to give birth to a child with down syndrome is to divide 1000 by 200 and this gives us 5 . so the 38 year old is 5 times more likely to give birth to a child with down syndrome than a 28 year old :)
Their total expenses are ...
.. $1.50 +3.00 +1.25 = $5.75
Their profit is the difference between their charge and their cost:
.. $25.00 -5.75 = $19.25
The correct choice is ...
B) $19.25
Answer:
33.34%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The actual price of the shirt = $36
Price on sale = $24
We need to find the percent of the decrease. The formula for the percentage is given by :
Putting all the values,
So, the percentage decrease in the price of the shirt is 33.34%.
Answer:
If m is nonnegative (ie not allowed to be negative), then the answer is m^3
If m is allowed to be negative, then the answer is either |m^3| or |m|^3
==============================
Explanation:
There are two ways to get this answer. The quickest is to simply divide the exponent 6 by 2 to get 6/2 = 3. This value of 3 is the final exponent over the base m. Why do we divide by 2? Because the square root is the same as having an exponent of 1/2 = 0.5, so
sqrt(m^6) = (m^6)^(1/2) = m^(6*1/2) = m^(6/2) = m^3
This assumes that m is nonnegative.
---------------------------
A slightly longer method is to break up the square root into factors of m^2 each and then apply the rule that sqrt(x^2) = x, where x is nonnegative
sqrt(m^6) = sqrt(m^2*m^2*m^2)
sqrt(m^6) = sqrt(m^2)*sqrt(m^2)*sqrt(m^2)
sqrt(m^6) = m*m*m
sqrt(m^6) = m^3
where m is nonnegative
------------------------------
If we allow m to be negative, then the final result would be either |m^3| or |m|^3.
The reason for the absolute value is to ensure that the expression m^3 is nonnegative. Keep in mind that m^6 is always nonnegative, so sqrt(m^6) is also always nonnegative. In order for sqrt(m^6) = m^3 to be true, the right side must be nonnegative.
Example: Let's say m = -2
m^6 = (-2)^6 = 64
sqrt(m^6) = sqrt(64) = 8
m^3 = (-2)^3 = -8
Without the absolute value, sqrt(m^6) = m^3 is false when m = -2
