What is the approximate percent decrease when a fish count goes down from 850 to 500?

2 answers:

8 0

To get this, you divide the smaller number by the larger one and get 0.5882... 500 is about 59% of 850, so to find the percent lost, you subtract that from 100 to get 41% decrease

Yes because any number multiplied by a decimal gets moved over to how ever many decimal places it went. EX 5(.12) = .6. Every time multiplying with a decimal, the answer will always be smaller and include a decimal.

If ∆ABC and ∆GEF are congruent, the value of x is___? and the value of y is ___?

attashe74 [19]

Answer-

The value of y is 6 units.

Solution-

Given ∆ABC ≅ ∆GEF

If two triangles are congruent, then the corresponding sides are also congruent.

So,

EF = BC, GF = AC

Putting the values,

$\Rightarrow x-y=4$ --------------1

$\Rightarrow x-8=2$

$\Rightarrow x=10$ --------------------2

Putting the values of x in equation 1,

$\Rightarrow 10-y=4$

$\Rightarrow y=10-4=6$

Therefore, the value of y is 6 units.

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Probability that the average length of a sheet is between 30.25 and 30.35 inches long is 0.0214 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the population of lengths of aluminum-coated steel sheets is normally distributed with a mean of 30.05 inches and a standard deviation of 0.2 inches.

Also, a sample of four metal sheets is randomly selected from a batch.

Let X bar = Average length of a sheet

The z score probability distribution for average length is given by;

Z = $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)
