During summer vacation, Tori read, on average, 40 pages per night. Now that she has returned to school, she is averaging 5% fewer. How many pages per night is Tori averaging now?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 38 pages per night

Step-by-step explanation:

Tori used to read an average of 40 pages per night but now she is going at a rate that is 5% slower.

To find the number of pages she is reading now, first find 5% of 40 pages:

= 5% * 40

= 2

Then subtract this figure from 40:

= 40 - 2

= 38 pages per night

By deducting 5% from the reading quantity, the person is reading at 5% less.

Two sides of a right triangle measure 777 units and 333 units.

Answers

Answer:

58 units squared

Step-by-step explanation:

**I'm doing the question with the 7 by 3 triangle in the picture, not 777 by 333**

Pythagorean Theorem: [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex], where c is the length of the hypotenuse.

The given sides are legs, therefore, [tex]3^2+7^2=c^2[/tex]

[tex]9+49=c^2; 58=c^2; c=\sqrt{58}[/tex]

c is also one of the sides of the square. A square's area is one of the sides' lengths squared, so:

[tex](\sqrt{58}) ^{2}=58[/tex]

Answer:
58

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the area of the square for the third side.

The equation for the Pythagorean theorem is

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the lengths of the two legs of the triangle, and c is the length of the hypotenuse.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2+7^2=x^2

9+49=x^2

58=x^2

The area of the square for the third side of the triangle is 58 units^2 squared.

The number of wins in a season for 32 randomly selected professional football teams arelisted below. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the true mean number of wins in a season.




Mean(x) = sum of 32 observations / 32 = 7.97



Standard deviation( sd )=2.62



Sample Size(n)=32



Confidence Interval = [ 7.97 ± Z a/2 ( 2.62/ Sqrt ( 32) ) ] = [ 7.97 - 1.64 * (0.4632) , 7.97 + 1.64 * (0.4632) ] = [ 7.2,8.7 . What are the steps used to solve this? How did they find their Standard Deviation? Also what does the Z stand for in the confidence interval?

Answers

Answer:

A)CI 90 % = [ 7,2103 ;  8,7297]

B) s = √ ∑(xi - xp)²/n-1

c) z is the score for the given significance level in this case is 1,64

Step-by-step explanation:

For a confidence Interval of 90%, the significance level is α = 10 %

α = 0,1     α/2 = 0,05  and from z-table we find  z(c) for 0,05   z(c) = 1,64

CI 90 % = [ x  ±  z(c) * s/√n ]

CI 90 % = [ 7,97 ±  1,64 * 2.62/√32]

CI 90 % = [ 7,97 ± 0,7597]

CI 90 % = [ 7,2103 ;  8,7297]

B) To calculate the standard deviation of the sample the equation is:

s = √ ∑(xi - xp)²/n-1

xi - xp  is the difference between each one of the elements of the sample

xp is the mean or average of the elements of the sample and n is the sample size

The values are 155 degrees, 5y degrees, and 13x degrees. find the values of x and y

Answers

Answer:

y = 5

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

find the complete question in the attached image

the angle opposite 5y is also 5y. this is because alternate angles are equal

180 = 155 + 5y

5y = 180 - 155

5y = 25

y = 5

the sum of 5y and 13x is equal to 90

this is because the sum of angle on a straight line is equal to 180 and one of the angle on the straight line is already equal to 90 . so, 90 (180 - 90)

5y + 13x = 90

25 + 13x = 90

13x = 90 - 25

13x = 65

x = 5

Answers

Answer:

B) 1.15x, adding 15% to the cost of haircut is same as to multiply cost by 1.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression = x + 15% of x

x + (15/100) x = x + 0.15x

= (1+ 0.15) x = 1.15x

15% = 0.15 , added to x = 1.15x

Which type of transformation (reflection, rotation or translation) is most difficult for you to perform? Which is the easiest? Why do you think this is?

Answers

Answer:

Easiest: Translation

Most difficult: rotation

Step-by-step explanation:

- Translation involves just moving of an image without any changes anything about it from size to orientation to shape. Therefore, the translated image is exactly the same as the original one just that it is moved to a different place.

- Rotation involves rotating the image by a certain angle.

For example, we can rotate an image by 30°, 45°, 60° e.t.c.

- Reflection is simply the mirror image of an existing image which is basically flipping the original image along a vertical or horizontal line which acts like a mirror.

Looking at these definitions, the easiest will be translation because we are not changing any single thing but just moving from one place to another while the most difficult would be rotation because it involves rotating at an angle which one may not easily get correctly.

What is the percent increase or decrease between $7.80 and $6.63?​

Answers

It is a 15% decrease.

Amount One: $7.80
Amount Two: $6.63

You’re looking for what percent of 7.80 is 6.63.

$7.80 * X = $6.63.
X = $6.63/$7.80
X = .85

So $6.63 is 85% of $7.80.

Percents are out if 100, so if you want to know what the percent difference is, subtract 85% from 100%.

100% - 85% = 15%.

As you’re going form $7.80 to $6.63, the number is getting smaller so it’s a decrease. Overall, it’s a 15% decrease from $7.80 to $6.63.

I think it’s the first one, am I correct?
