Of the 2,374 pieces produced by a particular machine, 27 were defective. What percent were defective? Round to the nearest hundredth of a percent.

Step by step explanation

Step one:

The total pieced produces is 2374

total defective is 27

to find the percentage of the defective pieces, we would need to divide the total pieces of the defective by the total number of pieces produced by the machine and multiply the result by 100

Step two

% defecive= (27/2374)*100

% defecive= 0.0113*100

% defecive= 1.137%

To the nearest hundredth of a percent 1.14%

the inequality is:

250c+180g≥950

step-by-step explanation:

let c denotes the number of days in a week   miyoko worked as a cryptographer.

and g denotes the number of days in a week she works as a geologist.

now we are given that she earns $250 for every day she works as a cryptographer,and earns $180 for every day she works as a geologist.

now miyoko's goal is to earn more than $950 this week.

hence, the inequality could be represented as:

250c+180g≥950
