Past experience at the Pasadena Travel Agency indicated that 44% of those persons who wanted the agency to plan a vacation for them wanted to go to Asia. During the most recent busy season, a sampling of 1,000 plans was selected at random from the files. It was found that 480 persons wanted to go to Asia on vacation. Has there been a significant shift upward in the percentage of persons who want to go to Asia

Yes. There there been a significant shift upward in the percentage of persons who want to go to Asia.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given in the question, past experience at the Pasadena Travel Agency shows that 44% of people who came to plan a vacation with the agency wanted to go to Asia.

During the most recent busy season, a sampling of 1,000 plans was selected at random from the files. It was found that 480 persons wanted to go to Asia on vacation. The percentage of people who want to go to Asia now will be:

= 480/1000 × 100

= 48%

Therefore, there has been a significant shift upward in the percentage of persons who want to go to Asia.

answer: c. is your answer

step-by-step explanation: get me a black leather coat

delaney would like to make a 5lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds.

she has several pounds of peanuts and several pounds of a mixture that is 20% peanuts and 80% almonds.

let 'p' represent the number of pounds of peanuts needed to make the new mixture, and  

let 'm' represent the number of pounds of the 80% almond-20% peanut mixture.

:

p + m = 5

therefore

m = (5-p)

write an equation based on the percent of peanuts

1p + .2m = .6(5)

replace m with (5-p)

p + .2(5-p) = .6(5)

p + 1 - .2p = 3

p - .2p = 3 - 1

.8p = 2

p = 2/.8

p = 2.5 lbs of peanuts required

then

5 - 2.5 = 2.5 lbs of the peanut/almond mixture required

:

a) what is the system that models this situation?

p + m = 5

1p + .2m = .6(5)
