There is 75% decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Old value = 688 qt

New value = 172 qt

Change = New value - Old value

Change = 172 - 688

Change = -516 qt

The negative sign indicates decrease.

Decrease percent = \frac{Change}{Old\ value}*100

Decrease percent = \frac{516}{688}*100

Decrease percent = \frac{51600}{688}

Decrease percent = 75%

There is 75% decrease.

Samir is an expert marksman. When he takes aim at a particular target on the shooting range, there is a 0.950.950, point, 95 pro
bearhunter [10]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Samir is an expert marksman. When he takes aim at a particular target on the shooting range, there is a 0.95 probability that he will hit it. One day, Samir decides to attempt to hit  10 such targets in a row.

Assuming that Samir is equally likely to hit each of the 10 targets, what is the probability that he will miss at least one of them?

Answer:

40.13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'A' be the event of not missing a target in 10 attempts.

Therefore, the complement of event 'A' is \overline A=\textrm{Missing a target at least once}

Now, Samir is equally likely to hit each of the 10 targets. Therefore, probability of hitting each target each time is same and equal to 0.95.

Now, P(A)=0.95^{10}=0.5987

We know that the sum of probability of an event and its complement is 1.

So, P(A)+P(\overline A)=1\\\\P(\overline A)=1-P(A)\\\\P(\overline A)=1-0.5987\\\\P(\overline A)=0.4013=40.13\%

Therefore, the probability of missing a target at least once in 10 attempts is 40.13%.

A line contains the points (82, −96) and (87, −86).
Alik [6]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(82, −96) and (87, −86)

We have

m =  \frac{ - 86 -  - 96}{87 - 82}  =  \frac{ - 86 + 96}{5}  =  \frac{10}{5}  = 2 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>2 </h3>

Hope this helps you

Someone help! you have 44 text messages in your inbox. How many messages can your cell phone hold? (and inbox is 88% full)
marin [14]
We can set up a proportion.

88% = 0.88

44/0.88 = x/1

Cross multiply:

0.88x = 44

Divide 0.88 to both sides:

x = 50

So your cell phone can hold 50 messages.
