0.6%. Dividing 100% by 2,500 individuals indicates that each individual accounts for 0.04%. Multiplying 0.04 by 15 equals 0.6

Response:

0.6%

Detailed explanation:

The cosmetic firm conducted a trial with a new lotion involving 2500 participants.

The count of individuals who experienced allergic reactions was 15

thus the percentage of those affected by allergies = \frac{\text{number of allergic people}}{\text{total people taken for test}}\times 100

= \frac{15}{2500}\times 100

= \frac{15}{25} = 0.6%

the proportion of affected individuals is 0.6%

Given f(x) and g(x) = f(x) + k, look at the graph below and determine the value of k. k = ______ Graph of two lines. f of x equa
lawyer [12517]

Solution:

We know, g(x) = f(x) + k --------(1)

It is given that f(x) = \frac{1}{3}(x+2)

and g(x) = \frac{1}{3}(x+5)

Substituting f(x) and g(x) into equation (1):

→ \frac{1}{3}(x+5) = \frac{1}{3}(x+2) + k

→ \frac{1}{3}[x+5-x-2] = k

→ k = \frac{1}{3} \times 3=1

Thus, the value of k is 1.

Kayla says that the point labeled C in the diagram below is the center. Raymond says that point C is the radius. A sphere. The c
Leona [12618]

Answer:

Kayla is right; the center constitutes a fixed point located at the sphere's core.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kayla is indeed correct, whereas Raymond is mistaken since a point itself cannot represent a radius; a radius is defined as the line segment stretching from the center to the surface.

The center is indeed the stable point positioned at the center of the sphere.

A truck with a heavy load drove from Boston to New York at 50 mph. After dropping of the load, it returned from New York to Bost
Zina [12379]

Answer:

175/3 or 58.333...

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be complex, but I'll simplify it. I apologize for the challenges involved in formatting fractions correctly. To ensure accuracy, I've added several parentheses that may seem unnecessary.

Let d denote the distance between the two cities.

The time it takes can be expressed as d/r, where r represents the speed; thus, from B to NY, it is d/50.

In the same manner, from NY to B, it's d/70.

The average velocity can be determined as 2d divided by the sum of d/50 and d/70, representing the average time.

Next, eliminate d from the equation to reach (d/d)*2/(1/50+1/70).

Now, you can multiply by the Least Common Multiple (LCM) over itself, which is 350/350.

The result after performing this calculation will yield 700/12, equating to 58.333...(This is how you would enter it into your RSM browser) I hope this clarification is useful. My apologies for the delay.
