Answer: B 2/5

Step-by-step explanation: Convert the mixed number  2 1/2 into an improper fraction first by multiplying the denominator  (2) by the whole number part  (2)and add the numerator  (1)  to get the new numerator. Place the new numerator  (5)  over the old denominator (2). And now inverse means opposite, so just flip it.

Finally: 5/2 inverse= 2/5

If you get rid of the whole number in that fraction, you will have 3/2.
So the opposite of that would be 2/3.
I believe the answer is 2/3.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

0.48

0.52

No

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Result of experiment :

Point up = 48

Point down = 52

Total number of trials = 100

Recall :

Experimental probability = number of outcomes / number of trials

1.)

P(Landing point up) = 48 / 100 = 0.48

2.)

P(Landing point down) = 52 / 100 = 0.52

3.)

The same result will not occur has the outcomes of trials aren't fixed.

4.) Yes, nearly the same result could occur on the second trial, as the number of possible outcubes are just 2 and the number if trials is high.
