To round a number to the nearest hundred, we count two places to the left of the decimal point, or from the last digit if the number is a whole number.

If the second digit from the last digit is upto 5, we add 1 to the preceding digit and we complete the last two numbers with zeros.

Therefore, any number from 11,950 to 12,049, will result to 12,000 when rounded to the nearest hundred.

Answer: So, the possible numbers that when rounded to the nearest hundred are 12000 are from 11500 to 12049.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of horse trailer = 4

Cost of 4 horse trailer = $12000

As we know about the "Estimation", if there is a number greater or equal to 5 in tens place then it will be rounded off to the nearest next greatest integer.

So, if this number is $11950 to 12049.

So, the possible numbers that when rounded to the nearest hundred are 12000 are from 11500 to 12049.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

The set of numbers of the form \frac{p}{q} , q≠0 and q≠ 1 or -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

U = the universal set = the set of all rational numbers

S = set of all integers.

It is required to find S^{c}.

Now, S^{c} is the complement of the set S.

i.e. S^{c} = U - S = set if rational numbers - set of integers

i.e. S^{c} = the set of rationals which are not integers i.e. the set of points of the form \frac{p}{q} , q≠0 and q≠ 1 or -1.

What number must we multiply by $-\frac23$ to get a product of $\frac34$?
stich3 [128]

Let x be unknown number. If number x is multiplied by -\dfrac{2}{3} and the product is equal to \dfrac{3}{4}, then

x\cdot \left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)=\dfrac{3}{4}.

To find x you should divide \dfrac{3}{4} by -\dfrac{2}{3}:

x=\dfrac{\dfrac{3}{4}}{-\dfrac{2}{3}}=\dfrac{3}{4}\cdot \left(-\dfrac{3}{2}\right)=-\dfrac{3\cdot 3}{4\cdot 2}=-\dfrac{9}{8}.

Answer: x=-\dfrac{9}{8}

600 can be written as 2a x b x cd where a,b,c and d are all prime numbers find the values of a, b, c and d
mihalych1998 [28]
The prime factorisation of 600 is given by

600 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 5 \times 5 = 2^3 \times 3 \times 5^2

Therefore, a = 3, b = 3, c = 5 and d = 2.

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

(a) The fraction of the calls last between 4.50 and 5.30 minutes is 0.3729.

(b) The fraction of the calls last more than 5.30 minutes is 0.1271.

(c) The fraction of the calls last between 5.30 and 6.00 minutes is 0.1109.

(d) The fraction of the calls last between 4.00 and 6.00 minutes is 0.745.

(e) The time is 5.65 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the mean length of time per call was 4.5 minutes and the standard deviation was 0.70 minutes.

Let X = <u><em>the length of the calls, in minutes.</em></u>

So, X ~ Normal(\mu=4.5,\sigma^{2} =0.70^{2})

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                           Z  =  \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}  ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean time = 4.5 minutes

           \sigma = standard deviation = 0.7 minutes

(a) The fraction of the calls last between 4.50 and 5.30 minutes is given by = P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = P(X < 5.30 min) - P(X \leq 4.50 min)

    P(X < 5.30 min) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{5.30-4.5}{0.7} ) = P(Z < 1.14) = 0.8729

    P(X \leq 4.50 min) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{4.5-4.5}{0.7} ) = P(Z \leq 0) = 0.50

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.14 and x = 0 in the z table which has an area of 0.8729 and 0.50 respectively.

Therefore, P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = 0.8729 - 0.50 = <u>0.3729</u>.

(b) The fraction of the calls last more than 5.30 minutes is given by = P(X > 5.30 minutes)

    P(X > 5.30 min) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} > \frac{5.30-4.5}{0.7} ) = P(Z > 1.14) = 1 - P(Z \leq 1.14)

                                                              = 1 - 0.8729 = <u>0.1271</u>

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.14 in the z table which has an area of 0.8729.

(c) The fraction of the calls last between 5.30 and 6.00 minutes is given by = P(5.30 min < X < 6.00 min) = P(X < 6.00 min) - P(X \leq 5.30 min)

    P(X < 6.00 min) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{6-4.5}{0.7} ) = P(Z < 2.14) = 0.9838

    P(X \leq 5.30 min) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{5.30-4.5}{0.7} ) = P(Z \leq 1.14) = 0.8729

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.14 and x = 1.14 in the z table which has an area of 0.9838 and 0.8729 respectively.

Therefore, P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = 0.9838 - 0.8729 = <u>0.1109</u>.

(d) The fraction of the calls last between 4.00 and 6.00 minutes is given by = P(4.00 min < X < 6.00 min) = P(X < 6.00 min) - P(X \leq 4.00 min)

    P(X < 6.00 min) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{6-4.5}{0.7} ) = P(Z < 2.14) = 0.9838

    P(X \leq 4.00 min) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{4.0-4.5}{0.7} ) = P(Z \leq -0.71) = 1 - P(Z < 0.71)

                                                              = 1 - 0.7612 = 0.2388

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.14 and x = 0.71 in the z table which has an area of 0.9838 and 0.7612 respectively.

Therefore, P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = 0.9838 - 0.2388 = <u>0.745</u>.

(e) We have to find the time that represents the length of the longest (in duration) 5 percent of the calls, that means;

            P(X > x) = 0.05            {where x is the required time}

            P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} > \frac{x-4.5}{0.7} ) = 0.05

            P(Z > \frac{x-4.5}{0.7} ) = 0.05

Now, in the z table the critical value of x which represents the top 5% of the area is given as 1.645, that is;

                      \frac{x-4.5}{0.7}=1.645

                      {x-4.5}{}=1.645 \times 0.7

                       x = 4.5 + 1.15 = 5.65 minutes.

SO, the time is 5.65 minutes.
