Answer:

0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be our required number.

We are asked to find a number such that 1/10 of the number equals 0.07.

1/10 of the required number would be $\frac{1}{10}x$ .

Now, we will equate $\frac{1}{10}x$ with 0.07 to find our required number.

$\frac{1}{10}x=0.07$

$10*\frac{1}{10}x=10*0.07$

$x=0.7$

Therefore, 0.07 is 1/10 of 0.7.

1. Miguel is playing a game in which a box contains four chips with numbers written on them. Two of the chips have the number 1,

zzz [600]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Miguel is playing a game

The box contains 4 chips, 2 with number 1, and other two differntly numbered as 3 and 5.

OUt of these 4, 2 chips are drawn

P(drawing same number) = 2C2/4C2 = $\frac{1}{6}$

Prob (drawing differnt numbers) = 1-1/6 = $\frac{5}{6}$

Hence prob of winning 2 dollars = $\frac{1}{6}$

Prob of losing 1 dollar = $\frac{5}{6}$

b) Expected value = sum of prob x amount won

= $\frac{1}{6}2+\frac{5}{6}(-1)=-\frac{1}{2}$

c) Miguel can expect to lose 1/2 dollars for every game he plays

d) If it is to be a fair game expected value =0

i.e. let the amount assigned be s

Then $\frac{1}{6}s-\frac{5}{6}=0\\s=5$

PLS HELP, 50 POINTS!!!

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Part A: From 0 to 2 seconds, the height of the water balloon increases from 60 to 75 feet, therefore the water balloon's height is increasing during the interval [0,2]

Part B: From 2 to 4 seconds, the height of the water balloon stays the same at 75 feet, therefore the water balloon's height is the same during the interval [2,4] From 10 to 12 seconds, the height of the water balloon stays the same at 0 feet, therefore the water balloon's height is the same during the interval [10,12] From 12 to 14 seconds, the height of the water balloon stays the same at 0 feet, therefore the water balloon's height is the same during the interval [12,14]

Part C: The interval, [4,6] of the domain is when the water ballon's height decreases the fastest. The interval [4,6] decreases by 35 feet. The two other intervals that decrease are [6,8] and [8,10] which both have the same slope. They decrease by 20 feet. Therefore, this helps us conclude that the interval [4,6] decreases the fastest because 35 feet is a more significant decrease than 20 feet.

Part D: I predict that the height of the water balloon at 16 seconds is 0 feet. This is because at 10-14 seconds, the water balloon's height is 0 feet. In read-world situations, if the water balloon is on the ground which is 0 feet, it stays on the ground due to gravity.

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps! I also do not know if it is all correct but I did research and everything so hopefully it is correct! Good luck!

Which will result in a difference of squares? (negative 7 x + 4)(negative 7 x + 4) (negative 7 x + 4)(4 minus 7 x) (negative 7 x

nevsk [136]

Answer:

(negative 7 x + 4)(negative 7 x minus 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider two real numbers a and b. A difference of squares involving a and b is usually given as;

$a^{2}-b^{2}$

The difference of the two squares above can be factored to yield;

$(a-b)(a+b)$

This implies that in order to have the difference of squares we must have a product involving the difference and the sum of the numbers.

The expression;

(negative 7 x + 4)(negative 7 x minus 4) can also be written as ( 4 - 7x) ( -4 - 7x)

( 4 - 7x) ( -4 - 7x) = ( 4 - 7x) (-1( 4 + 7x)) = -1 *( 4 - 7x) ( 4 + 7x)

Expanding the last expression yields;

-1 (16 + 28x -28x - 49x^2) = -1 (16 - 49x^2) = 49x^2 - 16 which is in deed a difference of squares

The Institute of Education Sciences measures the high school dropout rate as the percentage of 16- through 24-year-olds who are

n200080 [17]

Answer:

$Z_{H_0}= -1.85$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The high school dropout rate, as a percentage of 16- through 24- year-olds who are not enrolled in school and have not earned a high school credential was is 2009 8.1%.

To thest the claim that this percentage has decreased, a polling company takes a random sample of 1000 people between the ages of 16 and 24 and finds out that 6.5% of them are highschool dropouts.

The study variable is

X: Number of individuals with age between 16 and 24 years old that are highschool dropouts.

The parameter of interest is the proportion fo highschool dropouts p

And the sample proportion is p'= 0.065

The hypotheses are:

H₀: p ≥ 0.081

H₁: p < 0.081

To study the population proportion, you have to approximate the distribution of the sampling proportion to normal applying the Central Limit Theorem, then the statistic to use is an approximate standard normal:

$Z_{H_0}= \frac{(p'-p)}{\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n} } } = \frac{0.065-0.081}{\sqrt{\frac{0.081*0.919}{1000} } } = -1.85$
