Answer:

37.5% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a relative percentage you generally follow the rule of part divided by whole.

$100 / $160 = .625 (62.5%)

So $100 is 62.5% of $160

To find the decrease we need to subtract 62.5% from 100%

100 - 62.5 = 37.5

How to solve question 10
Over [174]

Answer:

Option E x=x^2-10x+21

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

x-5=\sqrt{x+4}

we know that

For x> 5 both sides of the equation will be positive

Squared both sides

(x-5)^2=(\sqrt{x+4})^2

(x-5)^2=(x+4)

x^2-10x+25=(x+4)

Subtract 4 both sides

x^2-10x+25-4=(x+4)-4

x^2-10x+21=x

Rewrite

x=x^2-10x+21

labwork [276]

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, draw a normal distribution plot to use for the analysis of the data. Starting at the mean in the centre. Add one standard deviation for each interval to the right, and subtract one standard deviation for each interval to the right. See attached image. According to the empirical rule, 68% of data lies within one standard deviation of the mean, 95 % of the data is within two st. dev. and 99.7% of the data is within 3 st. dev. of the mean.

From the graph it can be deducted that half of the data will lie below 50, which makes it 50%.

An easier way of determining the answer is to use the definition of a mean. A mean is the number that,when all the data is placed in ascending order, lies right in the middle of all the data.
