The number 18 is decreased to 16. What is the percentage by which the number was
decreased, to the nearest tenth of a percent?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

11.1 %

Step-by-step explanation:

2/18 = 11.1%

Answer 2

The percentage of the number decreased is 11.1%.

What is a percentage?

The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value by the total value and multiplying by 100.

Example:

Required percentage value = a

total value = b

Percentage = a/b x 100

Example:

50% = 50/100 = 1/2

25% = 25/100 = 1/4

20% = 20/100 = 1/5

10% = 10/100 = 1/10

We have,

Initial number = 18

Final number = 16

The change in the value of the number.

= 18  - 16

= 2

The percentage decreased.

= (Change in the number / Initial number) x 100

= 2/18 x 100

= 200/18

= 11.11%

= 11.1 %

Thus,

The percentage decreased is 11.1%.

Lindsey made a map of her town which place in Lindsey's town is located at 4,5

Answers

Answer:

the school

Step-by-step explanation:

the point given is (4,5) so let's try to hone in on that so to speak-

with that in mind, the way that i find the easiest to answer this is by using rise over run or the crawl before you walk method

seeing as how both are practically the same i'll just go with the craw before you walk method-

so we will 'crawl' to 4 along the x axis then we'll 'walk' and stop once we reach (4,5) and at (4,5) there is the school building and since her town is also located at the same point the school building is the correct answer

good luck :)

Alfredo purchased the following for breakfast:

5 bacons at $.55 each

2 eggs for $1.24

1 apple juice at $1.50 each

What was the total price in dollars and cents Alfredo paid for his breakfast?

Answers

Answer:

$6.73

Step-by-step explanation:

1 bacon = $0.55

5 x $0.55 = $2.75

1 egg = $1.24

2 x $1.24 = $2.48

1 apple juice = $1.50

  $2.75

  $2.48

+ $1.50

————

  $6.73

Therefore, your answer is $6.73.

Answer:

In total, Alfredo paid $6.73 for his meal.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost of all of the food products, multiply the quantity of the food by the prices. So, for example:

Bacon: 5 x $. 55= $2.75

Eggs: 2 x $1.24 = $2.48

Apple Juice: 1 x $1.50 = $1.50.

Now, add.

$2.75+$2.48+$1.50= $6.73

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

SO right off the bat it cannot be c, for they do definatly change.

Next, lets find out how much they change by.

The median would now be 120. Since adding 1 more number would make it just 120. Instead of it being 120+130/2.

This is a decrease of 5. Because we can just subtract normal number by new number: 125-120=5.

Now, the mean is already 500/4. This equals 125.

So lets add 0 to that. So now we must divide it by 1 more number, 4+1=5.

That is 500/5. This equals 100.

This is a decrease of 25. Because we can again subtrasct the normal number by the new number: 125-100=25

That is 5x more of a decrease than the mean.

SO it must be A, since the mean decreased more than the median.

Emi computes the mean and variance for the population data set 87, 46, 90, 78, and 89. She finds the mean is 78. Her steps for finding the variance are shown below.

What is the first error she made in computing the variance?
A.) Emi failed to find the difference of 89 - 78 correctly.
B.) Emi divided by N - 1 instead of N.
C.) Emi evaluated (46 - 78)2 as -(32)2.
D.) Emi forgot to take the square root of -135.6.

Answers

Answer: Choice C) Emi evaluated (46-78)^2 as -(32)^2

Explanation:

The "46-78" is inside the parenthesis, so the result must also stay in the parenthesis. This means (46-78)^2 would become (-32)^2. The negative must be inside the parenthesis as well. Squaring the "-32" leads to a positive result, so every item being added is positive after the squaring operations are applied.

O Two events are independent if the outcome of the first event affects the outcome of the second event.

Answers

Answer:

Two events are independent if the outcome of the first event does not affect the outcome of the second event.

Step-by-step explanation:

two events are independent if the occurrence or outcome of the  first event does not affect the outcome or occurrence of the second event.

for example, if you flip a coin the first time and the outcome is a head and you flip a second time and you get a tail. the occurrence of these two event are independent of each other. Thus they are independent events

two outcomes are dependent if the outcome one event is determined by the outcome of the first event.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of line passing through [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] is given by,

m = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

From the graph attached,

Slope of the line passing through (-3, 0) and (0, 5) = [tex]\frac{5-0}{-3-0}[/tex]

                                                                                    = [tex]-\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

Line passing through a point (h, k) and slope 'm' will be,

y - h = m(x - k)

Since, line passing through (11, 0) is parallel to the line given in the graph,

Slope of the parallel line will be same as [tex]-\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

Equation of a line passing through (11, 0) and slope = [tex]-\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

y - 0 = [tex]-\frac{5}{3}(x-11)[/tex]

y = [tex]-\frac{5}{3}(x-11)[/tex]

Now satisfy this equation with the points given in the options,

Option (1)

For (1.67, -15.59),

-15.59 = [tex]-\frac{5}{3}(1.67-11)[/tex]

-15.59 = -15.55

False.

Therefore, given point doesn't lie on the line.

Option (2)

For (-0.33, -13.59)

-13.59 = [tex]-\frac{5}{3}(-0.33-11)[/tex]

-13.59 = -18.88

False

Option (3)

For (0.67, -18.59),

-18.59 = [tex]-\frac{5}{3}(0.67-11)[/tex]

-18.59 = 17.22

False

Option (4)

For (1.67, -15.59)

-15.59 = [tex]-\frac{5}{3}(1.67-11)[/tex]

-15.59 = -15.55

False.

Therefore, none of the points given in the options are lying on the line.

From the question;
