To find 20% of 950 you would set it up as a proportion. When doing percentages the prevent is always out of 100 so the first step would be 20/100. You are trying to find a number out of 950 so the second part would be ?/950. Now you want to cross multiply and divide. 20*950=19,000 then you divide it by 100 (your other number) 19,000/100=190. So 20% of 950 is 190.
Answer:
b) 0.0608
Step-by-step explanation:
As it is mentioned that the next two days i.e 24 hours, the probability of the rain is uniformly distributed
Therefore the rain probability is
where,
T = Length of the time interval
Plus, as we know that rain is independent
So let us assume the rain between the 8: 40 AM and 2: 35 PM on single day is P1 and the time interval is 5 hours 55 minutes
i.e
= 5.91666 hours long.
So, P1 should be
= 0.2465
Now we assume the probability of rain on day 2 is P2
So it would be same i.e 0.2465
Since these events are independent
So, the total probability is
= 0.0608
Hence, the b option is correct

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: it would take 20 weeks before the amount in both accounts would be the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of weeks that it will take either Ruben and Shawna to have the same amount of money in their account.
Let y represent the total amount that would be in Shawna's account after x weeks
Let z represent the total amount that would be in Ruben's account after x weeks
Shawna has $750 in the bank. She deposits $37.50 each week. This means that the total amount after x weeks would be
y = 37.5x + 750
Ruben has $850 in the bank. He deposits his paycheck of $102.75 every Monday,and he spends about $70.25 each week.. This means that the total amount after x weeks would be
z = 850 + 102.75x - 70.25x
z = 850 + 32.5x
To determine the number of weeks before the amount in both accounts will becomes the same, we would equate y to z. It becomes
37.5x + 750= 850 + 32.5x
37.5x - 32.5x = 850 - 750
5x = 100
x = 100/5 = 20
Find the amount of the difference and then divide it by the original amount:
380 - 350 = 30
30 / 350 = 0.0857 = 8.6% increase. Round the answer as needed.
100 tickets were sold.
The total amount of the tickets sold is = 5 * 100 = $500.
First prize given = $100
Second prize worth = $20 * 5 = $100
Total worth of prize + $100 + $100 = $200.
Net amount of tickets sold = $500 - $200 = $300
Expected price of each ticket sold = $300/100 = 3.
Therefore, the real price of each ticket sold is $3.
