Auto sales in a country increased from 16.5 million in 2014 to 17.5 million in 2015. Find the percent increase in auto sales from 2014 to 2015. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent._______%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount increase=17.5-16.5

=1million

% increase= amount increase/original×100% amount

= 1/16.5×100%

= 6.1%

Answer 2

The percentage increase in auto sales is 6.1 %

What is Percentage?

A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. It is often denoted using the percent sign, %

Given data ,

The auto sales of the country in 2014 = 16.5 million

The auto sales of the country in 2015 = 17.5 million

The increase in auto sales in 2015 from 2014 =
Auto sales of the country in 2015 - Auto sales of the country in 2014

The increase in auto sales in 2015 from 2014 = 17.5 million - 16.5 million

                                                                           = 1 million

Now , the percentage increase in auto sales =
( Increase in auto sales / Auto sales of the country in 2014 ) x 100

The percentage increase in auto sales = ( 1 / 16.5 ) x 100

                                                                 = 6.06 %

Therefore , the percentage increase is 6.1 %

Hence , the percentage increase in auto sales if 6.1 %

Answer:

C. y = 91

Step-by-step explanation:

you are given that x and y are proportional, this means that you can out them in a fraction

so when x is 8, y is 56, this can be written as 8/56

you are trying to find what y is when x is 3, so you can also put that in a proportion that is equal to the given fraction

so now we have 8/56 = 13/y

cross multiply 56 and 13, and 8 and x

you now have: 8y = 728

divide both sides by 8

you get y = 91

In ΔOPQ, o = 6.6 inches, p = 2.1 inches and q=6 inches. Find the measure of ∠O to the nearest 10th of a degree.

Answers

Answer:

The measure of ∠O is 97.2° to the nearest tenth

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we will use the cosine rule

In Δ OPQ

Side o is opposite to ∠O

Side p is opposite to ∠P

Side q is opposite to ∠Q

By using the cosine rule

o² = p² + q² - 2(p)(q)cos∠O

∵ o = 6.6 inches

∵ p = 2.1 inches

∵ q = 6 inches

→ Substitute them in the rule above

∴ (6.6)² = (2.1)² + (6)² - 2(2.1)(6)cos∠O

∴ 43.56 = 4.41 + 36 - 25.2cos∠O

→ Add the like terms in the right side

∴ 43.56 = 40.41 - 25.2cos∠O

→ Subtract 40.41 from both sides

∵ 3.15 = -25.2cos∠O

→ Divide both sides by -25.2 to find cos∠O

-0.125 = cos∠O

→ Use your calculator to find ∠O

∵ m∠O = [tex]cos^{-1}(-0.125)[/tex]

∴ m∠O = 97.18075578

→ Round it to the nearest tenth ⇒ 2d.p.

m∠O = 97.2°

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of two numbers is 1856. The sum is ninety. What is the difference of these two numbers?

Answers

Answer:  26

======================================================

Explanation:

x and y are the two numbers

The product of those values is 1856, so xy = 1856

The sum is 90, so x+y = 90. Solve for y to get y = 90-x

Plug this into the first equation

xy = 1856

x(90-x) = 1856

90x-x^2 = 1856

0 = x^2-90x+1856

x^2-90x+1856 = 0

Now use the quadratic formula

[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-90)\pm\sqrt{(-90)^2-4(1)(1856)}}{2(1)}\\\\x = \frac{90\pm\sqrt{676}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{90\pm26}{2}\\\\x = \frac{90+26}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{90-26}{2}\\\\x = \frac{116}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{64}{2}\\\\x = 58 \ \text{ or } \ x = 32\\\\[/tex]

If x = 58, then,

y = 90-x

y = 90-58

y = 32

So one pair of values is (x,y) = (58,32)

We see that x*y = 58*32 = 1856

If x = 32, then,

y = 90-x

y = 90-32

y = 58

Showing (x,y) = (32,58) is the other solution. But this is just a mirror copy of the first solution. Effectively we're saying the same thing.

The two numbers 58 and 32 multiply to 1856, and they add to 90.

The difference in the two values is 58-32 = 26 which is the final answer.

------------------------

In summary,

58*32 = 1856

58+32 = 90

58 - 32 = 26

Answer:26

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=90

xy=1856

x*(90-x)=1856

-x^2 +90x -1856=0

or x^2 -90x +1856=0

Using quadratic equation

(x-58)*(x-32)=0

x=58, y=32

58-32=26

Sam computed a 95% confidence interval for μ from a specific random sample. His confidence interval was 10.1 < μ < 12.2. He claims that the probability that μ is in this interval is 0.95. What is wrong with his claim?
A) Either μ is in the interval or it is not. Therefore, the probability that μ is in this interval is 0.95 or 0.05.
B) A probability can not be assigned to the event of μ falling in this interval.
C) Either μ is in the interval or it is not. Therefore, the probability that μ is in this interval is 0 or 1.
D) The probability that μ is in this interval is 0.05.

Answers

Answer: C) Either μ is in the interval or it is not. Therefore, the probability that μ is in this interval is 0 or 1.

Step-by-step explanation: A 95% Confidence interval shows that there is a 95% confidence that the true parameter is between the lower and upper limits.

A CI is not a probability that the true parameter is in between the interval. The true parameter is either in the interval or not.

So, probability of falling between the limits is 0 (no chance of being in this interval) or 1 (100% possibility of being in this interval).

Then, "either μ is in the interval or it is not. therefore, the probability that μ is in this interval is 0 or 1." is correct.

The OLS method A. minimizes the sum of the residuals. B. maximizes the sum of the residuals. C. maximizes the sum of the squared residuals. D. minimizes the sum of the squared residuals.

Answers

Answer: D. minimizes the sum of the squared residuals

Step-by-step explanation: The ordinary least square method is often used in locating the trendine which best fits a graphical linear model. The best is one in which the sum of the squared residual is smallest. The residual refers to the difference between the actual and the predicted points. The sum of the squared differences is obtained and the trend line is positioned where the residual is minimum. Choosing a OLS, and minimizing the sum.of the squared residual, the error difference between the predicted and actual score is minimized or reduced, hence, improving the prediction accuracy of our model.

At Nivea's Newsstand, 6 magazines cost $12.00. How many magazines could you buy with $16.00?

Answers

Answer:

You could by 8 magazines

Step-by-step explanation:

First, set up the equation 6/12=x/16

cross multiple to get 12x=96

divide both sides by 12 and x = 8

This is a fun, but simple unit rate problem! We are solving for x.

Divide 12 by 6 (cost is usually always first when dividing for unit rate). You’ll get 2.

That means, for every one magazine, it’s 2 dollars.

Now, divide 2 by 16.
Your answer should be 8!

You can purchase 8 magazines for $16 dollars!

Your field experience instructor wants to line up 7 cars for transportation to a grade school. Between you and your classmates, there are 29 cars available. How many different groups of 7 cars are possible? different groups

Answers

Answer:

1560780 selections

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cars = 29

Selection = 7

Required

Possible number of selections

The interpretation of the question is that, in how many ways can 7 cars be selected from 29.

This is done using combination formula as follows:.

[tex]^nC_r = \frac{n}{(n-r)!r!}[/tex]

Where

[tex]n = 29[/tex]

[tex]r = 7[/tex]

So, the formula becomes:

[tex]^{29}C_7 = \frac{29!}{(29-7)!7!}[/tex]

[tex]^{29}C_7 = \frac{29!}{22!7!}[/tex]

[tex]^{29}C_7 = \frac{29*28*27*26*25*24*23*22!}{22!7!}[/tex]

[tex]^{29}C_7 = \frac{29*28*27*26*25*24*23}{7!}[/tex]

[tex]^{29}C_7 = \frac{29*28*27*26*25*24*23}{7*6*5*4*3*2*1}[/tex]

[tex]^{29}C_7 = \frac{7866331200}{5040}[/tex]

[tex]^{29}C_7 = 1560780[/tex]

Hence, the number of ways is 1560780
