We have FIVE cats that each ate 1/4 cup of canned food.

Then, the five of them together ate:

5 times 1/4 cup This in mathematical expression is a profduct of an integer value (5) times the fraction (1/4) which we know how to multiply based on the problems we solved a few minutes ago:

5 * 1/4 = 5/1 * 1/4 = (5 * 1) / (1 * 4) = 5/4 cups

This answer can also be written as a MIXED number given that 5/4 is an IMPROPER fraction (a fraction with numerator larger than the denominator)

5/4 = 1 1/4

Not sure what answer your teacher would prefer. It depends on whether he/she wants you to use fractions or mixed numbers.

Suppose f(x)=2^x. What is the graph of g(x)=1/3f(x)?

svetlana [45]

Please see the blue curve of the image attached below to know the graph of the function g(x) = (1/3) · 2ˣ.

<h3>How to graph a transformed function</h3>

Herein we have an original function f(x). The transformed function g(x) is the result of compressing f(x) by 1/3. Then, we find that g(x) = (1/3) · 2ˣ. Lastly, we graph both function on a Cartesian plane with the help of a graphing tool.

The result is attached below. Please notice that the original function f(x) is represented by the red curve, while the transformed function g(x) is represented by the blue curve.

suppose you know that over the last 10 years, the porbabiliy that your town would have at least one ma jor stor was 40%. describ

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The probability of a big storm is 40%.

Now, you can find a D10 (a die with 10 faces)

You can assign 4 numbers (0, 1, 2, 3) to the event "there is a major storm"

in this way, you have 40% of having a storm.

and the other 6 numbers (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) to the event "there is not a major storm". This means that we have 60% of not having a storm.

now, when you roll the dice you can see if a year there will be a storm or not.

Now, you roll the dice 5 times (for the 5 years) and take note of the results and the number of storms in those 5 rolls.

Now do the same thing a bunch of times, at least 25 times.

Now, you recorded the results in each set of rolls, now see the number of sets that have at least years with storms.

Take that number and divide it by the total number of sets of data (in this case 25, for example)

The result is the probability that we are looking for.

Solve the equation or formula for the indicated variable.

alex41 [277]

Subtract 3 both sides first. R-3=ts²

next, divide both sides by t, (R-3)/t=s²

finally, take the square root of both sides

√(R-3)/t = s. 2nd choice.
