Why is -1 3/10 as an improper fraction -13/10? Wouldn’t it be -7/10 because -1 * 10 + 3 is -7/10?

Answer:

-13/10

Step-by-step explanation:

It wont be -7/10 because to change a mixed number to an improper fraction, we multiply the whole number by the denominator and then add this product with the numerator.

How do I solve 1/10x+5=-3x-13+4x ?
Temka [501]

Answer:

x = 20

I am not sure if you wanted the answer. Sorry!

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

1/10 x + 5 = - 3x - 13 + 4x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

1/10 x + 5 = - 3x - 13 + 4x

1/10 x + 5 = - 3x + - 13 + 4x

1/10 x + 5 = (<em>- 3x + 4x</em>) + (- 13)

1/10 x + 5 = <em>x</em> + - 13

1/10 x + 5 = x - 13

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

1/10 x + 5 - <em>x </em>= x - 13 - <em>x</em>

- 9/10 x + 5 = - 13

Step 3: Subtract 5 from both sides

- 9/10 x + 5 - <em>5</em> = - 13 - <em>5</em>

- 9/10 x = - 18

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 10/(- 9).

(<em>10/ - 9</em>) * (- 9/10 x) = (<em>01/ - 9</em>) * (- 18)

x = 20

Hope this helps!

Suppose you are repeating a classic study of starfish and their impact on the ecosystems of tide pools. Using historic data coll
Travka [436]

Answer:

The probability of the number of starfish dropping below 3 is 0.0463.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X represent the number of starfish in the tide pool.

X follows a Poisson distribution with mean 6.4.

The formula for Poisson distribution is as follows.

P(X=x) = e^{-6.4} * [6.4^{x} / x!] when x = 0, 1, ...

P(X = x) = 0 otherwise

We need to find the probability that the number of starfish in the tide pool drops below 3.

Therefore, the required probability is:

P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X=2)

P(X < 3) = e^{-6.4} + (e^{-6.4}*6.4) + (e^{-6.4}*6.4^{2}/2)

P(X < 3) = 0.00166 + 0.01063 + 0.03403

P (X < 3) = 0.0463
