Mike's ringer rate: 70%
Ike's ringer rate: 67%
Each makes 50 tosses

<span>Which of the following is closest to the probability that Ike's proportion of ringers is higher than Mike's after those tosses?
</span>
P(m) = 70/100
P(i) = 67/100
P(b) = 50/100

Intermediate calculation: P(b) * P(i) = 50/100 * 67/100 = 0.335

The correct answer is letter D) 0.3745.

If (a^3+27)=(a+3)(a^2+ma+9) then m equals
Inessa [12570]

Answer:

m = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a³ + 27 can be recognized as a sum of cubes, which factors generally as

a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²). Therefore:

a³ + 27

= a³ + 3³

= (a + 3)(a² - 3a + 9).

By comparing a² - 3a + 9 to a² + ma + 9, we find that

m = - 3.

A rectangular garden is 6 feet long and 4 feet wide. A second rectangular garden has dimensions that are double the dimensions o
Svet_ta [12734]

Response:

100 percent increase

Detailed explanation:

1st garden

Length = 6 ft

Width = 4 ft

Perimeter = 2 (l+w)

                 = 2 (6+4) = 2(10) = 20

2nd garden

The length and width of this garden are double those of the first

Length = 2 *6 = 12

Width = 2 *4 = 8

Perimeter = 2 (l+w)

                 = 2 (12+8) = 2(20) = 40

Percent change = (new - old )/old * 100 percent

The first garden represents the old garden = 20  and the second refers to the new garden = 40

Substituting values in

Percent change = (40-20)/20 = 20/20 =100 *100 percent

                            = 100 percent increase

When Val checks her cable bill, she is shocked by her movie-rental bill for the month. Renting movies costs $2.99 for each movie
babunello [11817]
She ought to select the monthly plan for unlimited movies instead of paying $2.99 per film. This choice is advisable because if she continues paying this amount for each individual movie, her total monthly costs will rise significantly. For example, if she has 8 days off in a month (on Saturdays and Sundays) and pays for each film on those days, the total expense would exceed that of the unlimited monthly plan priced at $7.99. And that doesn't include other potential viewing days or any public holidays that could allow her to watch more movies.
