Do ratios 15:5 and 6:2 form a proportion?

Mathematics

For two ratios to form a proportion they have to be equal.

To see if two ratios are equal we express them in their simplest form.

In this case we notice that in the first ratio both numbers are multiples of five, then:

15\colon5=3\colon1

In the second case we notice that both numbers are multiples of 2, then:

6\colon2=3\colon1

Since both ratios can be simplified to the same final ratio, they form a proportion.

An automobile insurance company issues a one-year policy with a deductible of 500. The probability is 0.8 that the insured autom
Effectus [21]

Answer:

y₀.₉₅ = 3659

Step-by-step explanation:

P( no accident ) = 0.8

P( one accident ) = 0

deductible = 500

mean = 3000

<u>Determine the 95th percentile of the insurance company payout </u>

Assuming : y =company payout , x =amount of loss incurred due to accident

Then :

P( x < 500 ) = 0.2 ( 1 - e^-500/3000)

                   = 0.2 ( 1 - e^-1/6 )

95th percentile =

= P( y < y₀.₉₅  ) 0.95

  P( y = 0 ) = 0.8 + 0.2 ( 1 - e^-1/6 ) = 0.8307

attached below is the remainder of the solution
