From my understanding your asking what 20% of $48 is.
in that case it would be $9.60

48*20%=?
20/100=0.20
0.20*48=$9.60
$48-$9.60

Answer: $38.40

The CEO of a local tech company wants to estimate the proportion of employees that are pleased with the cleanliness of the break

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Methods of obtaining a sample of 600 employees from the 4,700 workforce:

Part A: The type of sampling method proposed by the CEO is Convenience Sampling.

Part B: When there are equal number of participants in both campuses, stratification by campus would give a more precise approximation of the proportion of employees who are satisfied with the cleanliness of the breakrooms than stratification by gender. Another method to ensure that stratification by campus gives a more precise approximation of the proportion of employees who are satisfied with the cleanliness of the breakrooms than stratification by gender is to ensure that the sample is proportional to the proportion of each campus to the whole population or workforce.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Convenience Sampling technique is a non-probability (non-random) sampling method and the participants are selected based on availability (early attendees). The early attendees might be different from the late attendees in characteristics such as age, sex, etc. Therefore, sampling biases are present. All non-probability sampling methods are prone to volunteer bias.

Stratified sampling is more accurate and representative of the population. It reduces sampling bias. The difficulty arises in choosing the characteristic to stratify by.

f(x) = −16x2 + 24x + 16 Part A: What are the x-intercepts of the graph of f(x)? Show your work. (2 points) Part B: Is the vertex

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = −16x^2 + 24x + 16

Set equal to zero to find the x intercepts

0 = −16x^2 + 24x + 16

Factor out -8

0 = -8(2x^2 -3x-2)

Factor

0 = -8(2x +1) (x-2)

Using the zero product property

2x+1 =0 x-2 =0

x = -1/2 x=2

The x intercepts are -1/2 ,2

Since the coefficient of x^2 is negative the graph will open down and the vertex will be a maximum

The x value of the maximum is 1/2 way between the zeros

(-1/2+2) /2 = 1.5/2 =.75

To find the y value substitute into the function

f(.75) = -8(2x +1) (x-2)

=-8(2*.75+1) (.75-2)

= -8(2.5)(-1.25)

=25

The vertex is at (.75, 25)

We have the zeros, and the vertex. We know the graph is symmetrical about the vertex

The length, l cm, of a simple pendulum is directly proportional to the square of its period (time taken to complete one oscillat

Greeley [361]

Answer:

1) $L \propto T^2$

Using the condition given:

$2.205 m = K (3)^2$

$K = 0.245 \approx \frac{g}{4\pi^2}$

So then if we want to create an equation we need to do this:

$L = K T^2$

With K a constant. For this case the period of a pendulumn is given by this general expression:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Where L is the length in m and g the gravity $g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}$ .

2) $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

If we square both sides of the equation we got:

$T^2 = 4 \pi^2 \frac{L}{g}$

And solving for L we got:

$L = \frac{g T^2}{4 \pi^2}$

Replacing we got:

$L =\frac{9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} (5s)^2}{4 \pi^2} = 6.206m$

3) $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.98m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}}= 1.987 s$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1

For this case we know the following info: The length, l cm, of a simple pendulum is directly proportional to the square of its period (time taken to complete one oscillation), T seconds.

$L \propto T^2$

Using the condition given:

$2.205 m = K (3)^2$

$K = 0.245 \approx \frac{g}{4\pi^2}$

So then if we want to create an equation we need to do this:

$L = K T^2$

With K a constant. For this case the period of a pendulumn is given by this general expression:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Where L is the length in m and g the gravity $g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}$ .

Part 2

For this case using the function in part a we got:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

If we square both sides of the equation we got:

$T^2 = 4 \pi^2 \frac{L}{g}$

And solving for L we got:

$L = \frac{g T^2}{4 \pi^2}$

Replacing we got:

$L =\frac{9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} (5s)^2}{4 \pi^2} = 6.206m$

Part 3

For this case using the function in part a we got:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Replacing we got:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.98m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}}= 1.987 s$

Roberto wants to buy a $40 gift for his father. He finished one odd job in 4 hours at $3.75 an hour. He is now working at a job

Nikitich [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

amount left for the money to reach $40

=40-3.75

=36.25

using a method of proportion,

If $4 : 1 hour,then

$36.25 : ?

if more, less divides.

= 36.25 / 4 ×1

=36.25/4

=9.0625 approximately 9 hours

Analyze the diagram to complete the statements. The m∠MXN is the m∠YZX. The m∠LZX is the m∠ZYX + m∠YXZ. The m∠MYL is 180° − m∠ZY

Xelga [282]

By using the picture that was provided below, you can see that

m<MXN is greater than m<YZX.

Angles m<LZX is equal to m<ZYX + m<YZX and

m<MYL is equal to 180 degrees minus M<ZYX.

I hope this helps! Have a good day
