Answer:

The male to female nurse ratio in simplest form is: 2:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Fact: A hospital has a total of 250 registered nurses.

Total number of male nurses is 100

Total number of female nurses is 250 - 100 = 150 [Total nurses minus number of male nurses]

To determine the ratio of male to female nurses in simplest terms;

A ratio indicates the relative proportions of two or more quantities.

Thus,

\frac{Number of male nurses}{Number of female nurses} = \frac{100}{250}

or

= \frac{100}{250} =\frac{10}{25} =\frac{2}{5} = 2:5

Consequently, the male to female nurses ratio in simplest form is; 2:5

Erika is writing a coordinate proof to show that the diagonals of a rectangle are congruent. She begins by assigning coordinates
Leona [9271]

Answer:

Option C is the right choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given coordinates define a rectangle, and our objective is to show that the diagonals JL and KM are congruent.

We know that rectangles possess four right angles.

To prove the congruence of the diagonals JL and KM, we will utilize the Pythagorean theorem.

In triangle KLM, KL has a length of b units while LM has a length of a units. By applying the Pythagorean theorem \sqrt(a^{2}+b^{2})=KM

In triangle JML, JM is b units long, and LM remains a units long. We again can apply the Pythagorean theorem \sqrt(a^{2}+b^{2})=JL

Thus, we find that \sqrt(a^{2}+b^{2})=KM=LM and option C is the correct choice.

The heights of 1000 students are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a standard deviation of
PIT_PIT [9121]
A. Mean and standard deviation.

The sampling distribution’s mean closely matches the population mean. Since the population mean is 174.5, the sampling distribution’s mean equals this value.

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution is:

            σₓ̄ = σ / √n

Plugging in values:

            σₓ̄ = 6.9 / √25 = 1.38

b. Calculate z-scores for both values:
         
      z = (value - mean) / standard deviation

For 172.5:
     z = (172.5 - 174.5) / 1.38 = -1.49
Corresponding probability ≈ 0.068

For 175.8:
   z = (175.8 - 174.5) / 1.38 = 0.94
Corresponding probability ≈ 0.83

The difference between these probabilities is 0.762.

Approximately 0.762 × 200 = 152 sample means lie between 172.5 and 175.8.

c. Z-score for 172 cm:

    z = (172 - 174.5) / 1.38 = -1.81
Probability ≈ 0.03

Hence, samples with means below 172 cm equal 0.03 × 200 = 6.

Robby had 4 4/9 bags of pet food.All of the bags held the same amount of food when they were full.Of Robby's 4 4/9 bags of pet f
Zina [9179]

Respuesta: 1.8 bolsas

Explicación paso a paso:

A partir de la pregunta, considerando que Robby tiene 4 4/9 bolsas de comida para mascotas, 2/5 eran comida para perros.

2/5 de 4 4/9 = comida para perros.

Convierte 4 4/9 a fracción impropia= 40/9.

2/5 de 40/9 implica 2/5 × 40/9.

= 16/9.

= 1.78 o 1.8.

Espero que esto sea útil, por favor marca como la mejor respuesta.

A cone is cut out of the center of a pyramid with a rectangular base. The rectangular base has side lengths of 15 and 10 units.
Svet_ta [9518]

Answer:

Volume of the shaded area = (600 - 36π) units³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the shaded area = Volume of pyramid - Volume of cone

Volume of pyramid = ⅓*l*w*h

Where,

l = length of the base of the pyramid = 15 units

w = width of the base of the pyramid = 10 units

h = height of pyramid = 12 units

Substituting the values helps find the volume of the pyramid

Volume of pyramid = ⅓*15*10*12 = 5*10*12 = 600 units³

Volume of Cone = ⅓πr²h,

Where,

r = radius = ½ of diameter = ½ of 9 = 3 units

h = height = 12 units

Volume of Cone = ⅓*π*3²*12 = ⅓*π*9*12

= π*3*12 = 36π units³

Volume of shaded area = (600 - 36π) units³

babunello [8423]

Answer:

Length\: of\: D=37\frac{3}{16} \:feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the details provided:

  • The handicapped space measures 10\frac{1}{16} feet next to the curb.
  • The other three spaces each are 8\frac{3}{8} feet wide.
  • There are four lines separating the spaces, each line being \frac{1}{2} foot long.

The Median D will be calculated as follows:

  • Width of the handicapped spot
  • 3 times the width of the other spaces
  • 4 times the width of the lines

= 10\frac{1}{16} + (3 X 8\frac{3}{8})+(4 X\frac{1}{2})\\=\frac{161}{16} + \frac{3 X 67}{8}+\frac{4}{2}\\=\frac{161}{16} + \frac{201}{8}+\frac{4}{2}\\=\frac{161+402+32}{16}\\=\frac{595}{16}\\Length\: of\: D=37\frac{3}{16} \:feet
