A number increased by 100% and decreased by 20% is x. what is the number ? NEEDED TODAY

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let's assume the number be 100.

According to the problem , 100 is increased by 100%.

So, new number will be 100+100=200

Now 200 will decreased by 20%.

So, 20% of 200= 0.20*200= 40.

So, again the number has been changed into 200+40=240.

So, x=240

Answer 2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x/1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number. When n is increased by 100%, its new value is ...

  n(1 +100%) = n(1 +1) = 2n

When this value is decreased by 20%, its new value is ...

  (2n)(1 -20%) = (2n)(0.8) = 1.6n

This value is x, so the number is ...

  1.6n = x

  n = x/1.6 . . . . . . . divide both sides by 1.6

Write the standard form of the equation of the circle with radius 3 and center (−4,−10)

Answers

Answer:

(x + 4)² + (y + 10)² = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a circle is written as seen below

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where (h,k) is at the center and r is the radius

We want to find the standard equation of a circle that has a radius of 3 and a center at (-4,-10)

Remember r = radius so r = 3

and (h,k) is at center so h = -4 and k = -10

Now to find the standard equation of the circle we simply plug in the values of the variables (h,k and r) into the standard equation of a circle formula.

Equation of a circle: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

r = 3, h = -4 and k = -10

Plug in values

(x - (-4))² + (y - (-10))² = 3²

Simplify

(x + 4)² + (y + 10)² = 9

And we are done!

Assume that the helium porosity (in percentage) of coal samples taken from any particular seam is normally distributed with true standard deviation 0.74. (a) Compute a 95% CI for the true average porosity of a certain seam if the average porosity for 19 specimens from the seam was 4.85. (Round your answers to

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "(4.518, 5.182)"

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sigma = 0.74[/tex]

The aveage porosity for a sample of [tex]n = 19[/tex] specimens is

[tex]\bar{x}=4.85[/tex]

Thus, the[tex]95\%[/tex] confidence interval for the true mean is

[tex]=\bar{x}\pm Z_{\frac{0.05}{2}} \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=4.85\pm 1.96 \frac{0.74}{\sqrt{19}}\\\\=4.85\pm 0.332\\\\=(4.518, 5.182)[/tex]

Therefore, one can state that the true average porosity will lie  between 4.518 and 5.182 with the 95\% confidence.

two cars started to move towards each other at the same time. the speed of the first car was twice the speed of the second car. they met in two hours. if the distance traveled altogether was 300 km find the rates of the cars.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v be the speed of the slower car

2v is the speed of the faster car

In 2 hrs, the slower car travels a distance of

2 hr(v km/hr) = 2v km

In 2 hrs, the faster car travels a distance of

2 hr(2v km/hr) = 4v km

2v + 4v = 300

6v = 300

 v = 50 km/hr

2v = 100 km/hr

Water is flowing into a tank at a rate of 20 cm3/min. At the start, there is 250 cm3 of water in the tank.
(i) How much water will be in the tank after 30 minutes?
(ii) Find the time when there is 1210 cm3 of water in the tank.

Answers

Answer:

i) 410 cm³

ii) 48 min

Step-by-step explanation:

we start with 250 cm³.

and then we fill in 20 cm³ per minute.

i)

after 30 minutes we have

250 + 8×20 = 250 + 160 = 410 cm³

ii)

how long (how many minutes) does it take to reach 1210 cm³ in the tank ?

well, first we subtract the start amount (250).

and then we see how often 20 cm³ will "fit" into the remainder. and then we know how many minutes the water has to run.

1210 - 250 = 960 cm³

so, the incoming water needs to reach 960 cm³ to have a total of 1210 cm³.

and

960 cm³ / (20 cm³ / min) = 960 cm³ min / 20 cm³ =

= 960 min / 20 = 48 min

1800 cm^3

Answers

Answer: 600 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of square pyramid = (1/3) · b² · h

b = base edge length = 10 cmh = height = 18 cm

Therefore, the volume can be calculated as

[tex]\frac{1}{3} *10^{2}*18=\frac{1}{3}*100*18=\frac{1}{3}*1800=\frac{1800}{3}=600[/tex]

Answer

900

it is pyramid and finding its volume we use the 3 components that is length, with and the height

1/2 base x width x height

Answers

There are 6 DIFFERENT POSSIBLE arrangements as obtained using the factorial method and they are :

DMC, CMD, DCM, MDC, CDM, MCD

Given :

DETECTIVE STORY = D

MYSTERY STORY = M

COMIC BOOK = C

To use the factorial method, we find the factorial value of the number of books to be arranged

Number of different possible arrangements = (number of books)!

Number of books = 3

Hence, 3! = 3 * 2 * 1 = 6 ways

T-distribution:

When the population standard deviation is not known, the t-distribution is used.

If a sample was taken from one population, we use the one-sample method, while if there is a comparison of two populations, the two-sample method is used, and thus, the correct answer is given by option A.
