There are 90 girls and 60 boys in the sixth grade at a middle school. Of these students, 7 girls and 2 boys write left-handed. What percentage of the sixth graders at this middle school write left-handed?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6%

Step-by-step explanation:

90 + 60 = 1507 + 2 = 9Set up a proportion: [tex]\frac{9}{150} = \frac{x}{100}[/tex]  Cross multiply, then divide: 9 × 100 = 900, 900 ÷ 150 = 6So, 6% of students in 6th grade were left-handed

I hope this helps!

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation: Ok so if there are 90 girls and 7 are left handed u  use this method 6/90 multiply by 100 and u get 7.77%

Hello!

First off, what is inductive and deductive reasoning?

Inductive is when you infer off of your observations. For example, "the last three cars I passed by were white, therefore the next car will also be white". The inductive reasoning is usually a broad guess. This could be right, but it isn't factual.

Deductive is when you infer based off of facts, or confirmed information. For example, "If you get 60% on a quiz, you pa$s the quiz. John got 80% percent on his quiz, therefore he passed." It is a confirmed fact that 60% is the pas$ing grade so if John got a 80%, that is more than 60% and he passes.

I hope the examples made sense!

The speed at which you can log into a website through a smartphone is an important quality characteristic of that website. In a recent test, the mean time to log into the JetBlue Airways website through a smartphone was 4.237 seconds. Suppose that the download time is normally distributed, with a standard deviation of 1.3 seconds. What is the probability that the download time is:

A. Less than 2 seconds?

B. Between 1.5 and 2.5 seconds

C. Above 1.8 seconds

D. 99% of the download times are slower (higher) than how many seconds?

E. 95% of the download times are between what two values, symmetrically distributed around the mean?

F. Suppose that the download times are uniformly distributed between 1 and 9 seconds. What are your answers to A through C?

Answers

Answer:

A.) 0.0426

B) 0.073121

C.) 0.96958

D.) 1.2 seconds

E.) 1.689 < x < 6.785

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a normal distribution :

Mean download time (m) = 4.237 seconds

Standard deviation (s) = 1.3 seconds

A.) Probability that download time is less than 2 seconds :

P(x < 2)

Obtain standardized score (Z) :

Z = (x - m) / s

Z = (2 - 4.237) / 1.3

Z = −1.720769

P(Z < - 1.7208) = 0.0426 (Z probability calculator)

B.) Between 1.5 and 2.5 seconds :

1.5 < z < 2.5

((x - m) / s) < z <((x - m) / s)

((1.5 - 4.237) / 1.3) < z < ((2.5 - 4.237) / 1.3)

−2.105384 < z < −1.336153

P(Z < - 2.10538) = 0.017629

P(Z −1.336153) = 0.09075

0.09075 - 0.017629 = 0.073121

C.) Above 1.8 seconds

P(x > 1.8)

Obtain standardized score (Z) :

Z = (x - m) / s

Z = (1.8 - 4.237) / 1.3

Z = −1.874615

P(Z > −1.874615) = 0.96958 (Z probability calculator)

D.) 99% of the download times are slower (higher) than how many seconds?

P(Z > x) = 99% = 0.99

Z value corresponds to -2.326

Z = (x - m) / s

-2.326 = (x - 4.237) / 1.3

-2.326 * 1.3 = x - 4.237

−3.0238 = x - 4.237

−3.0238 + 4.237 = x

x = 1.2132

x = 1.2 seconds

E. 95% of the download times are between what two values, symmetrically distributed around the mean?

For symmetric distribution around the mean ;

P(-Z<x<Z) = 0.95

Corresponds to a z value of 1.96

-1.96 * 1.3 = x - 4.237

-2.548 = x - 4.237

x = - 2.548 + 4.237

x = 1.689

1.96 * 1.3 = x - 4.237

2.548 = x - 4.237

x = 2.548 + 4.237

x = 6.785

1.689 < x < 6.785

Read the passage below and summarise it in a minimum of 100 words:

Until a hundred years ago as humans, we had a simple, uncomplicated biological connect. It was a straightforward equation: we drew roughly 3,000 calories each of energy out of the Earth for our food and life’s sustenance. Today that number per capita has grown to 100,000 calories. We still need only 3,000 calories each to nourish life itself. All the rest of this energy is what we extract from the Earth for everything else besides keeping ourselves alive. In some countries, like the US; this per capita number runs at over 200,000 calories! Some of us are concerned about this.

We fret over what we could and should really be doing to soften this abuse of resources. Little things fox us in the welter of things that we get to read. What is sustainable development? How can it be started in our homes? Beyond the ceremonial planting of green arid getting people to run marathons of various lengths in support of the environment, is there- more that we can add to the abstract value of “sustainability”? What are the little things we can do in our day-to-day lives, to reduce demand for things that people make and market? Of course, we know that it helps to avoid a plastic bag when you can use a newspaper bag, or a brown bag, or even a jute bag which you can use for many more years, unlike a plastic bag which you throw away in less than a week or after a few uses.

However, there’s actually quite a bit more than you and I can do without compromise on comfort, with very little as cost incurred, with financial savings that you can gain on energy and water use, and with solutions that are very feasible and within your reach. It is possible to understand our ecological footprint and its disastrous consequences, not merely in terms of our own behaviour as consumers, but really in terms of the impact on the environment we make.

Answers

Answer:

Find the summary below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The article compares the standard of healthy living some hundred years ago to what is obtainable in our world today. While the energy gained through food consumption some years ago was just adequate and at the right proportion, what is consumed today, supplies energy that is on an all-time high. This misuse of resources led to the development of sustainable development practices such as planting of trees, exercise routines which are done occasionally.

Another sustainable practice that can be done on a more regular basis is the use of jute or paper bags which are more biodegradable, instead of plastic bags. Finally, the article encourages the adoption of more sustainable practices because they can be more economical compared to the other practices that are presumed to be the status quo.

On a coordinate grid, point T is at (2,-4) and point S is at (2,6). The distance (in units) between points T and S is
numbers, such as 2.)

Answers

Answer:

The distance between T and S is 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

T(2, -4)S(2, 6)

[tex]\mathrm{Compute\:the\:distance\:between\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\quad \sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}[/tex]

The distance between T and S is:

[tex]=\sqrt{\left(2-2\right)^2+\left(6-\left(-4\right)\right)^2}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{\left(2-2\right)^2+\left(6+4\right)^2}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{0+10^2}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{10^2}[/tex]

[tex]=10[/tex]              ∵ [tex]\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule\:}\sqrt[n]{a^n}=a,\:\quad \mathrm{\:assuming\:}a\ge 0[/tex]

Therefore, the distance between T and S is 10 units.

A Norman window is a rectangle with a semicircle on top. Suppose that the perimeter of a particular Norman window is to be 25 feet. What should the rectangle's dimensions be in order to maximize the area of the window and, therefore, allow in as much light as possible? (Round your answers to two decimal places.)width ________ ftheight _______ ft

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Length =\frac{25}{4 + \pi}[/tex] and [tex]Width = \frac{50}{4+\pi}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is better understood with an attachment.

See attachment for illustration.

Given

Represent Perimeter with P

[tex]P = 25ft[/tex]

Required

Determine the dimension of the rectangle that maximizes the area

First, we calculate the perimeter of the rectangular part of the window.

From the attachment, the rectangle is not closed at the top.

So, The perimeter would be the sum of the three closed sides

Where

[tex]Width = 2x[/tex]

[tex]Length = y[/tex]

So:

[tex]P_{Rectangle} = y + y + 2x[/tex]

[tex]P_{Rectangle} = 2y + 2x[/tex]

Next, we determine the circumference of the semi circle.

Circumference of a semicircle is calculated as:

[tex]C = \frac{1}{2}\pi r[/tex]

From the attachment,

[tex]Radius (r) = x[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]C = \frac{1}{2}2\pi * x[/tex]

[tex]C = \pi x[/tex]

So, the perimeter of the window is:

[tex]P = P_{Rectangle} + C[/tex]

[tex]P =2y + 2x + \pi x[/tex]

Recall that: [tex]P = 25[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]25 =2y + 2x +\pi x[/tex]

Make 2y the subject

[tex]2y = 25 - 2x - \pi x[/tex]

Make y the subject:

[tex]y = \frac{25}{2} - \frac{2x}{2} - \frac{\pi x}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{25}{2} - x - \frac{\pi x}{2}[/tex]

Next, we determine the area (A) of the window

A = Area of Rectangle + Area of Semicircle

[tex]A = 2x * y + \frac{1}{2}\pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]A = 2xy + \frac{1}{2}\pi r^2[/tex]

Recall that

[tex]Radius (r) = x[/tex]

[tex]A = 2xy + \frac{1}{2}\pi x^2[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\frac{25}{2} - x - \frac{\pi x}{2}[/tex] for y in [tex]A = 2xy + \frac{1}{2}\pi x^2[/tex]

[tex]A = 2x(\frac{25}{2} - x - \frac{\pi x}{2}) + \frac{1}{2}\pi x^2[/tex]

Open Bracket

[tex]A = 2x * \frac{25}{2} - 2x * x - 2x * \frac{\pi x}{2} + \frac{1}{2}\pi x^2[/tex]

[tex]A = 25x - 2x^2 - \pi x^2 + \frac{1}{2}\pi x^2[/tex]

[tex]A = 25x - 2x^2 - \frac{1}{2}\pi x^2[/tex]

To maximize area, we have to determine differentiate both sides and set A' = 0

Differentiate

[tex]A' = 25 - 4x - \pi x[/tex]

[tex]A' = 0[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]0 = 25 - 4x - \pi x[/tex]

Factorize:

[tex]0 = 25 -x(4 + \pi)[/tex]

[tex]-25 =-x(4 + \pi)[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x = \frac{-25}{-(4+\pi)}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{25}{4+\pi}[/tex]

Recall that

[tex]Width = 2x[/tex]

[tex]Width = 2(\frac{25}{4+\pi})[/tex]

[tex]Width = \frac{50}{4+\pi}[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]y = \frac{25}{2} - x - \frac{\pi x}{2}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\frac{25}{4+\pi}[/tex] for x

[tex]y = \frac{25}{2} - (\frac{25}{4+\pi}) - \frac{\pi (\frac{25}{4+\pi})}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{25}{2} - (\frac{25}{4+\pi}) - \frac{\frac{25\pi}{4+\pi}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{25}{2} - (\frac{25}{4+\pi}) - \frac{25\pi}{4+\pi} * \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{25}{2} - \frac{25}{4+\pi} - \frac{25\pi}{2(4+\pi)}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{25(4+\pi) - 25 * 2 - 25\pi}{2(4 + \pi)}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{100+25\pi - 50 - 25\pi}{2(4 + \pi)}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{100- 50+25\pi - 25\pi}{2(4 + \pi)}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{50}{2(4 + \pi)}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{25}{4 + \pi}[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]Length = y[/tex]

So:

[tex]Length =\frac{25}{4 + \pi}[/tex]

Hence, the dimension of the rectangle is:

[tex]Length =\frac{25}{4 + \pi}[/tex] and [tex]Width = \frac{50}{4+\pi}[/tex]

Let b be the number of pounds of blueberries and a be the number of pounds of apples Eva picked. Which of the following expressions could represent how much Eva pays?
I'm just curious

Answers

Answer:

The required expression is: [tex]y = 5 + 2.50b + 2a[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Entry = \$5[/tex]

[tex]Blueberry = \$2.50[/tex]

[tex]Apple = \$2[/tex]

Required

Write an expression for this scenario

If 1 pound of blueberry cost $2.50

then b pounds = 2.50 * b

If 1 pound of apple cost $2

then a pounds = 2 * a

The required expression (y) is then calculated as

[tex]y = Entry\ Fee + Blueberry = Apple[/tex]

[tex]y = 5 + 2.50 * b + 2 * a[/tex]

[tex]y = 5 + 2.50b + 2a[/tex]

Hence, the required expression is: [tex]y = 5 + 2.50b + 2a[/tex]
