Answer:
Probabilities
Likely to happen (L) Unlikely to happen (U)
a. 4/5 5/8
b. 3/5 3/8
c. 4/5 4/7
d. 0.3 0.09
e. 5/6 and 4/5 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Probabilities in Percentages:
a. The probability of 4/5 = 80% and 5/8 = 62.5%
b. The probability of 3/8 = 37.5% and 3/5 = 60%
c. The probability of 4/5 = 80% and 4/7 = 57%
d. The probability of 0.3 = 30% and 0.09 = 9%
e. The probability of 2/3 = 67% and 4/5 = 80% and 5/6 = 83%
b) To determine the relative values of the fractional probabilities, it is best to reduce them to their fractional or percentage terms. When this is done, the relative sizes become obvious, and then, comparisons can be made.
4 because 1/8 goes into 1/2 4 times. 1/2 divided by 1/8 equals 4. 1/8 times 4 equals 1/2.
Just measure the width (or height, if you'll be stacking the pennies
a mile high) of a penny, then divide 5280 feet by whatever you find.
This is a great activity for a class, and in fact a good way to start
the project. First take one penny, and work out an answer. Then get
100 pennies, and measure them; do the same calculation to see how many
pennies it will take to make a mile. There will probably be a
difference, because you can measure 100 pennies more accurately than a
single penny. Or maybe you have a micrometer that will measure one
penny precisely. Which is better can be a good discussion starter. And
don't forget to try it in metric, too.
Just to illustrate, using a very rough estimate of a penny's width,
let's say a penny is about 3/4 inch wide. The number of pennies in a
mile will be
5280 ft 12 in 1 penny
1 mile * ------- * ----- * ------- = 5280 * 12 * 4/3 pennies
1 mi 1 ft 3/4 in
This gives about 84,480 pennies. (This method of doing calculations
with units is very helpful, and would be worth teaching.)
If we measure 100 pennies as 6 ft 1 in, we will get
5280 ft 100 pennies
1 mile * ------- * ----------- = 5280 * 100 * 12 / 73 pennies
1 mi 6 1/12 ft
This gives us 86794.5205 pennies in a mile.
If 2 lines intersect to farm a right angle , they are perpendicular ....... I hope that help
Answer:
16 inches squared
Step-by-step explanation:
We can split the figure into two rectangles. Rectangle 1 will have an area of 2*3=6. Rectangle 2 will have an area of 2*5=10
10+6=16
