there are 248 students in a large-lecture history course. on the first exam, 12% got an A, 28% a B, 41% a C, 11% a D, and the rest failed. Based on these results, whats the probability that a randomly selected student will (a) Get better than a C on the second test? (b) Fail the second test? (c) Not get an A on the second test

Answers

Answer 1

Assuming that the scores on the first exam are a representation for the ones in the second exam, we will see that the probabilities are:

a) P = 40%b) P = 8%c) P = 88%How to get the probabilities?

First we want to get the probability that a randomly selected student gets better than a C on the second test.

We assume the percentages for the first test can be applied for the second, so, the ones that got better than a C on the first exam are:

A: 12%

B: 28%

Then the probability is:

P( more than a C) = 12% + 28% = 40% (or 0.40 in actual probability notation)

b) Now we want to find the probability of fail.

The percentage that failed the first test is:

100% - 12% - 28% - 41% - 11% = 8%

So 8% of the students failed the first exam, this means that the probability that a randomly selected student fails the second exam is:

P = 8% or 0.8 in decimal notation.

C) 12% of the students tgot an A, so the probability that a randomly selected student does not get an A is:

P = 100% - 12%  =88%

or 0.88 in decimal notation.

provide the correct reason for the statement in line 3. (please help)

Answers

The property that completes the proof is the segment addition postulate

How to determine the statement that represents the reason in the proof?

The given parameters in the question are:

The point C is the midpoint of AE

BC = CD

The above implies that

AC = CE

And it also means that:

The line segment BC and the line segment CD have equal lengths

Using the above as a guide, we have the following equations

AB + BC = AC

CD + DE = CE

The above equations are true because of the segment addition postulate

This postulate states that:

For any two points (A and C) located on a line segment and a third point (b) between the initial points. The lengths between the points can be represented as AB + BC = AC

Hence, the statement that represents the reason 3 in the proof is (b) segment addition postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

the waiters at a restaurant have agreed to give one third of their tips to the kitchen staff if a waiter collects 72$ how much does he end up keeping

Answers

Answer:

48

Since they are giving one third of it to the staff, they are keeping 2 thirds of it for themselves. Two thirds of 72 is 48.

Answer:

He keeps $48.

Step-by-step explanation:

If he gives away 1/3, he keeps 2/3 so that's what we need to calculate.

First find 1/3 of 72 by dividing by 3: 72/3=24

Now to find 2/3, multiply by 2: 24*2=48

(72/3)*2= $48

Based on the domain, the equation of the function f(x) is F(x - h) = x^2 - 2xh + h^2 + 2

What is the domain of a function?

The domain of the function is the set of input values of the graph

How to determine the solution of the function f(x)?

The equation of the function is given as

F(x) = x^2 + 2

The required function is given as

F(x - h)

The above means that the value of x in the function F(x) = x^2 + 2 is x - h

i.e.

x = x - h

So, we substitute x - h for x in the equation F(x) = x^2 + 2

This gives

F(x - h) = (x - h)^2 + 2

Evaluate the exponent

So, we have

F(x - h) = x^2 - 2xh + h^2 + 2

The above equation cannot be further simplified

Hence, the solution of the function f(x) at the given domain is F(x - h) = x^2 - 2xh + h^2 + 2

You make an investment of $2250.00 with an absolute change of ―$350.00. What is your investment now

Answers

1. The investment of $2,250 with an absolute change of -$350 is now worth $1,900.

2. The percentage change in the worth of the investment is -15.56%.

What is a percentage change?

A percentage change refers to the percentage difference between the initial value and the current value.

To compute the percentage change, use the absolute change and divide by the initial value, then multiply by 100.

For this investment of $2,250 which is now worth $1,900, there was a percentage change of -15.56%, implying that it has drastically reduced in value.

Initial Investment Cost = $2,250.00

Absolute change in investment value = $350

Current value of investment = $1,900 ($2,250 + $350)

The percentage change = -15.56% (-$350/$2,250 x 100)

Thus, the investment is currently valued at $1,900, having lost $350 in value, which in percentage terms, is -15.56%.

Rate of Return = [?] %
Give your answer as a percent rounded to the

Answers

Answer:

  24.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the rate of return if 10 shares of stock purchased at $30 per share are sold for $380 with a commission on the sale of $6.

Return

The net proceeds from the sale will be ...

  $380 -6 = $374

Rate of return

The percentage change in stock value is ...

  % change = (proceeds/cost -1) × 100%

  % change = (374/300 -1) × 100% ≈ 24.7%

The rate of return on the stock is about 24.7%.

Blank 1:

Answers

The an equation (slope-intercept form) of the line is 2y = 5x + 108.

What is described as the slope-intercept form?A line's equation can be written in a variety of ways, each of which is valid. The slope-intercept form of such a line is a way of writing a line's equation so that the slope and y-intercept are easily recognizable. The slope of the line is its steepness, and the y-intercept is the point where line intersects the y-axis.

For the given question;

The equation of the perpendicular line is given as 2x + 5y = 10.

The passing points of the line (-20, 4)

(x₁, y₁) =  (-20, 4)

The equation of line in slope-intercept form is given as; y = mx + c.

Where, c is the y intercept and m is the slope.

The relation of the slope of two perpendicular lines are-

m₁ x m₂ = -1

The equation of line is-

2x + 5y = 10;  find m₁

5y = -2x + 10

y = (-2/5)x + 10

Comparing with standard form.

m₁ = (-2/5)

Then, m₁ x m₂ = -1

(-2/5) x m₂ = -1

m₂ = 5/2

Put in the equation of line;

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Put the values;

y - 4 = (5/2) (x + 20)

Solving;

2y - 8 = 5x + 100

2y = 5x + 108

Thus, the an equation (slope-intercept form) of the line is 2y = 5x + 108.

Answers

Answer:

Answer:

We have to minimize the cost of 51 pounds of blended coffee.

The mixture must contain 13 pounds of deluxe coffee.

Deluxe coffee costs $4 per pound while regular coffee costs $3 for the same amount.

So, we need to maximize the concentration of regular coffee in the blended coffee to minimize our costs, but we must mix 13 pounds of deluxe coffee in order to make the blended coffee as it is the condition given to us in the problem.

Hence, apart from this 13 pounds, all the rest weight in blended coffee should come from the regular one.

Hence, the amount of regular coffee we have to use = (51 - 13) = 38 pounds.

Now, the cost of the 51 pounds of blended coffee
