What is percentage?

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100.

Here, we have,

a number Is decreased by 20% of itself, the result is 24.

let, the number =x

then, we get,

x *80% = 24

i.e. x* 4/5 = 24

so, x= 30.

hence, the number is 30.

Answers

Answer:

(x,y) = (0,  1/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

  [1]    2x + 3y = 1

  [2]    4x - 6y = -2

Graphic Representation of the Equations :

   3y + 2x = 1        -6y + 4x = -2  

Solve by Substitution :

Solve equation [2] for the variable  x  

 [2]    4x = 6y - 2

 [2]    x = 3y/2 - 1/2

Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [1]

  [1]    2•(3y/2-1/2) + 3y = 1

  [1]    6y = 2

Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

  [1]    6y = 2  

  [1]    y = 1/3  

By now we know this much :

   x = 3y/2-1/2

   y = 1/3

Use the  y  value to solve for  x  

   x = (3/2)(1/3)-1/2 = 0

The time that it takes a randomly selected job applicant to perform a certain task has a distribution that can be approximated by a normal distribution with a mean value of 110 sec and a standard deviation of 15 sec. The fastest 10% are to be given advanced training. What task times qualify individuals for such training? (Round the answer to one decimal place.) seconds or less

Answers

Answer:

The task times is  [tex]x =90.77 \ s[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mean is  [tex]\mu  =  110 \ sec[/tex]

   The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma =  15 \  sec[/tex]

 

Generally the task times that qualify individuals for such training is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(X  <  x) =  0.10[/tex]

=>    [tex]P(X  <  x) = P( \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma }  <  \frac{x - 110}{15} )  = 0.10[/tex]

Generally [tex]\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma }   = Z (The  \ standardized \  value  \  of  X )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X  <  x) = P( Z <  \frac{x - 110}{15} )  = 0.10[/tex]

Generally the z -score   of  0.10  from the z-table  is

      [tex]z -score =  -1.282[/tex]  

So

      [tex]\frac{x - 110}{15}   =  -1.282[/tex]

=>    [tex]x =90.77 \ s[/tex]

The annual gas bill for a town household are considered to be normally distributed with a mean of $ 1130 and a standard deviation of $ 150. If one household is randomly selected, what is the probability that the gas bill will be between $900 and $1100?

Answers

Answer:

The probability is  [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = 0.358102[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  population mean is  [tex]\mu = \$ 1130[/tex]

    The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = \$ 150[/tex]

   

Generally the probability that the gas bill will be between $900 and  $1100 is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = P(\frac{900 - 1130 }{150 } < \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } < \frac{1100 - 1130 }{150 } )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = P(-1.533 < \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } < -0.2 )[/tex]

Generally [tex]\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } = Z (The\ standardized \ value \ of \ X)[/tex]

So

    [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = P(-1.533 < Z< -0.2 )[/tex]

   [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = P( Z< -0.2 ) - P(Z < -1.533)[/tex]

From the z  table  

     [tex]P(Z < -0.2 ) = 0.42074[/tex]

and

     [tex]P(Z < -1.533) = 0.062638[/tex]

So

     [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = 0.42074 - 0.062638[/tex]

=> [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = 0.358102[/tex]

A granola bite contains 27 calories. Most of the calories come from grams of carbohydrates. The rest come from other ingredients. One gram of carbohydrate contains 4 calories.The equation represents the relationship between these quantities. List the facts. * 4c + 5 = 27

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression that modeled the relationship between these quantities (calories from grams of carbohydrate and the rest of the ingredients) as

4c+5 = 27

From the equation, the constant value of 5 represents the calories in grams of  the rest of the ingredients present in the bite.

Let us calculate the value of c from the equation

4c+5 = 27

4c + 5- 5 = 27-5

4c = 22

c = 22/4

c = 5.5

This means that the total calories of carbohydrate the granola bite contains is 4(5.5) i.e 21 calories of carbohydrate

Note that 8 cannot be the solution to the equation because for us to eliminate 5 from both sides of the equation, we need to subtract it from both sides not add. If 5 was added to both sides, the value of c would have been (32/4 i.e 8) which would have been wrong.

An online furniture store sells chairs for $100 each and tables for $450 each. Every day, the store can ship a maximum of 24 pieces of furniture and must sell no less than $4500 worth of chairs and tables. If 5 tables were sold, determine all possible values for the number of chairs that the store must sell in order to meet the requirements.

Answers

Answer:

Actually, there is no answer to this problem.

450x5=2250

4500-2250=2250

2250/100=22.5

Technically the "answer" to this would be 23 or more, but the problem is saying the MAXIMUM amount they can ship is 24

23+5=28

28 is larger than 24, meaning there is no answer to the problem.

There is no answer to this problem.

What is inequality?

An inequality compares two values, showing if one is less than, greater than, or simply not equal to another value.

Given that, an online furniture store sells chairs for $100 each and tables for $450 each. Every day, the store can ship a maximum of 24 pieces of furniture and must sell no less than $4500 worth of chairs and tables and  5 tables are sold,

According to question,

450*5 = 2250

4500 - 2250 = 2250

Since, each chair is sold for $100, therefore,

2250/100 = 22.5

≈ 23

Since, 5 tables are already sold,

23 + 5 = 28

This is a contradiction to the given conditions, because the problem is saying the maximum amount they can ship is 24 and 28 is larger than 24.

Hence, there is no answer to the problem.

Complete question :

the original blueprint of a concrete patio has a scale of 2 inches=3 feet. victoria wants to make a new blueprint of the patio with a length of 16.8 inches. original blueprints length is 14 inches and original blueprints width is 12 inches. what is the scale for the new blueprint and what is the width of the blueprint with the new scale?

Answer:

2.5 fts, 14.4 fts

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Scale of original blueprint : 2inches = 3 feets

To make a new blueprint with a length of 16.8 inches, the scale for the new blueprint will be :

Original scale : 2 inches = 3 feets

Original blueprint length = 14 inches

Then,

2 inches = 3 feets

14 inches = d

Cross multiply :

2d = 42

d = 21 feets

Hence, new scale for blueprint :

16.8 inches = 21 feets

2 inches = d

16.8d = 42

d = 2. 5 feets

For the width :

14 inches = 16.8 feets

12 inches = w

14w = 201.6

w = 201.6/14

Width = 14.4feets

It costs a company $20 per box to make pocket-sized stuffed animals. The company also has a fixed manufacturing cost of $2300. The owners are trying to calculate their cost for making boxes of animals. a. Identify the variables in this relationship and indicate which would be the independent variable and which would be the dependent variable.​

Answers

Answer:

We want to write the cost equation for the company.

First, we know that:

It cost $20 per box.

There is a fixed cost of $2300.

Then the only variable will be the number of boxes that they make.

Where the number of boxes is the independent variable (the company can decide the number of boxes that they make) and the dependent variable will be the cost (the cost changes as the number of boxes change).

Then we can write the cost equation as:

C(x) = $20*x + $2300.

Where x is our variable, the number of boxes made by the company.

Answers

Answer: The greatest number of plates Lenin can prepare = 4

and there will be 3 chickens and 4 rolls in each plate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Lenin is preparing dinner plates. He has 12 pieces of chicken and 16 rolls.

To make all the plates identical without any food left over, the greatest number of plates Lenin can prepare = G.C.D.(12,16)=4

The number of pieces of chicken in each plate = [tex]\dfrac{12}{4}=3[/tex]

The number of pieces of rolls in each plate = [tex]\dfrac{16}{4}=4[/tex]

So,  the greatest number of plates Lenin can prepare = 4

and there will be 3 chickens and 4 rolls in each plate.
