Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Move the decimal point in the divisor and dividend.

Turn the divisor (the number you’re dividing by) into a whole number by moving the decimal point all the way to the right. At the same time, move the decimal point in the dividend (the number you’re dividing) the same number of places to the right.

Place a decimal point in the quotient (the answer) directly above where the decimal point now appears in the dividend.

Divide as usual, being careful to line up the quotient properly so that the decimal point falls into place.

Line up each digit in the quotient just over the last digit in the dividend used in that cycle.

Answer:

30minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not totally positive, but if 9 minutes is 30% or 3/10 of his time, then

10% or 1/10 is 3 minutes. So 100% or 10/10 is 30 minutes.

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

a) 0.88

b) 0.35

c) 0.0144

d) 0.2084

e) 0.7916

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The probability of a peanut being brown is 12/100 = 0.12. Hence the probability of it not being brown is 1-0.12 = 0.88

b) 12% of peanuts are brown, 23% are blue. So 35% are either blue or brown. The probability of a peanut being blue or brown is, therefore 35/100 = 0.35.

c) 12% of peanuts are red, so the probability of a peanut being red is 12/100 = 0.12. In order to calculate the probability of 2 peanuts being both red, we can assume that the proportion doesnt change dramatically after removing one peanut (because the number of peanuts is absurdly high. We can assume that we are replenishing the peanuts). To calculate the probability of 2 peanuts being both red, we need to power 0.12 by 2, hence the probability is 0.12² = 0.0144.

d) Again, we will assume that the probability doesnt change, because we replenish. The probability of a peanut being blue is 0.23. The probability of it not being blue is 0.77, so the probability of 6 peanuts not being blue is obtained from powering 0.77 by 6, hence it is 0.77⁶ = 0.2084

e) The event 'at least one peanut is blue' is te complementary event of 'none peanuts are blue', so the probability of this event is 1- 0.2084 = 0.7916

An alloy is composed of nickel, zinc, and copper in a 7:2:9 ratio. How many kilograms of each metal is needed to make 3.8 kg of
Tamiku [17]
Ni : Zn: Cu = 7:2:9 =7x : 2x : 9x

7x+2x+9x = 3.8
18x=3.8
x=3.8/18=1.9/9≈0.21

Ni:   7x=7*0.21=1.47 ≈1.5 kg
Zn:  2x=2*0.21=0.42≈0.4 kg
Cu: 9x=9*0.21=1.89 ≈1.9 kg

Check 1.5+0.4+1.9 =3.8 True
