Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
vat amount
= 1380 - 1200
=180
finding the rate of vat
= 1380/1200 *100
= 115%
NB : the 115% shows that 1200 8 115% = 1380 , this give total amount including vat , we only want vat hence we have to deduct the 100% which indicates the amount of article)
hence 115 - 100 = <u>15%</u>
15% * 1200= 180
we know that
The probability that "at least one" is the probability of exactly one, exactly 2, exactly 3, 4 and 5 contain salmonella.
The easiest way to solve this is to recognise that "at least one" is ALL 100% of the possibilities EXCEPT that none have salmonella.
If the probability that any one egg has 1/6 chance of salmonella
then
the probability that any one egg will not have salmonella = 5/6.
Therefore
for all 5 to not have salmonella
= (5/6)^5 = 3125 / 7776
= 0.401877 = 0.40 to 2 decimal places
REMEMBER this is the probability that NONE have salmonella
Therefore
the probability that at least one does = 1 - 0.40
= 0.60
the answer is
0.60 or 60%
Answer:
42 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we want to calculate the number of minutes ran in total.
Kindly note that;
Time = distance/speed
Her starting speed is 10 miles/hour
but she ran for 12 minutes.
Kindly note that 12 minutes = 12/60 = 1/5 = 0.2 hour
So total distance in the first 12 minutes is speed * time = 10 * 0.2 = 2 miles
Now the rest of distance to run would be ;
5 -2 = 3 miles
She ran 3 miles at a speed of 6 miles per hour.
Time spent here is 3/6 = 0.5 hours which is same as 30 minutes
Total time spent = 30 + 12 = 42 minutes
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 175cm
Standard deviation = 6 cm
Percentage of students below 163 cm
163 = 175 - 2*6
So 163 is two standard deviations below the mean.
By the Empirical rule, 95% of the heights are within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The other 100-95 = 5% are more than 2 standard deviations of the mean. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, 2.5% of them are more than 2 standard deviations below the mean(so below 163cm) and 2.5% are more than two standard deviations above the mean.
2.5% of the students have heights less than 163cm.
Out of 1000
0.025*1000 = 25
25 is the answer
