Answer: 8(4p + 3)

Step-by-step explanation: Let's first rewrite this as 32p + 24.

If you're asked to factor a polynomial, the first thing you want to look for is the greatest common factor between the terms that are involved.

So what is the greatest common factor between 32p and 24?

Well if you use a factor tree, you'll figure out that the greatest common factor between 32p and 24 is 8.

What that means is that 2 factors out of this polynomial and what you're left with is each of these terms divided by the number that factors out.

In other words 32p divided by 8 or 4p and 24 divided by 8 which is 3.

So your answer is 8(4p + 3) and that is a factored version of 24 + 32p.

The time at which the mailman delivers the mail to ace bike shop follows a normal distribution with mean 2:00 pm and standard de

ivolga24 [154]

There are three questions related to this problem.

First, the probability of the mail will arrive after 2:30 PM

Find the z-score of 2:30 which is 30 minutes after 2:00.

z(2:30) = (2:30 – 2:00)/15 = -30/15 = -2

P(x < 2:30) = P(z<-2) = 0.0228

Second, the probability of the mail will arrive at 1:36 PM

Find the z-score of 1:36 which is 24 minutes before 2:00.

z(1:36) = (1:36 – 2:00)/15 = -24/15 = -1.6

P(x < 1:36) = P(z<-1.6) = 0.0548

Lastly, the probability of the mail will arrive between 1:48 PM and 2:09 PM

Find the z-score of 1:46 and 2:09 PM which will result to a z value of 0.034599

P(1:48 < x < 2:09) = P(z<0.034599) = 0.5138

solve "in muddy lake, 600 fish were tagged. later, 12 out 480 fish were found tagged. about how many fish are in the lake?"

Readme [11.4K]

We estimate that 12/480=1/40 fish are tagged, so 600 is 1/40 of the total number of fish. This means that there are about 600*40=24000 fish total in the pond.

From 1994 to 1995 the sales of a book decreased by 80%. If the sales in 1996 for the same as in 1994, By what percent did the in

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

400%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sales be "100" in 1994

Since, it decreased 80%, the sales was:

80% = 80/100 = 0.8

0.8 * 100 = 80 (decreased by 80)

So, it was

Sales in 1995: 100 - 80 = 20

Sales in 1996 was same as in 1994, so that's 100

Thus,

Sales in 1994: 100

Sales in 1995: 20

Sales in 1996: 100

We need to find percentage increase form 1995 to 1996, that is what percentage increase is from 20 to 100?

We will use the formula:

$\frac{New-Old}{Old}*100$

Where

New is 100

Old is 20

SO, we have:

$\frac{New-Old}{Old}*100\\=\frac{100-20}{20}*100\\=4*100\\=400$

So, it increased by 400%
