A. 1/5 fish
We know that 2/5 of Mike's fish are clownfish. Therefore, 3/5 are not clownish as 5/5 – 2/5 = 3/5. Also, if you look at the model, there are five pieces. If we assume that model represents the whole of Mike's fish and you take away two pieces, you are left with 3/5. So we know that the remaining fish is 3/5
Next, we know that of these 3/5 fish, 1/3 is damselfish, so we need to find 1/3 of 3/5. To do this, we must multiply 1/3 by 3/5 as "of" means multiply in Math.
So: 1/3 • 3/5 = 1 • 3/3 • 5 = 3/15 3 ÷ 3 = 1 and 15 ÷ 3 = 5 3/15 = 1/5
1/5 of Mike's fish are damsel fish
B. 2/5 fish
Now we know that 1/5 of Mike's fish is damselfish, and 2/5 is clownfish. To find the fraction of his fish that are neither, therefore, we must subtract their sum from the whole.
First, we add 1/5 and 2/5 together. Adding the numerators, 1 and 2, we get 1/5 + 2/5 = 3/5
Next, we subtract: 5/5 – 3/5 = 2/5, so 2/5 of his fish are neither clownfish or damselfish
And if you look at the model again, you can see that if you cross out 1 piece for the damselfish, and 2 pieces for the clownfish, you are left with 2/5
Answer:
$2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up a proportion using the following setup.
price / pens = price / pens
We know that it costs $4.00 for 8 pens.
$4.00 / 8 pens = price / pens
We don't know how much it costs for 5 pens. Therefore, we can say it costs $x for 5 pens.
$4.00 / 8 pens = $x / 5 pens
4/8=x/5
We want to solve for x (the cost for 5 pens). Therefore, we must get x by itself on one side of the equation. x is being divided by 5. The inverse of division is multiplication, so multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
5*(4/8)=(x/5)*5
5*(4/8)=x
5*0.5=x
2.5=x
x= $2.50
Ivan should pay $2.50 for 5 pens.
Answer:
V = 1184ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume for Cube
we multiple l*w*h
4x4x4 = 64ft*3 area
Volume for rectangle
we multiple length of the rectangle side first with h
Surface area rectangle = 16 x 7 = 112ft ^2 (=70+42)
Then we multiply it with width 112 x 10 = 1120ft^3
Then we add together the cube V total + Rectangle V total.
64 + 1120= 1184ft^3
$43.85+$84.98+$56.24=$185.07
Answer:
a) 0.80
b) 0.45
c) 0.55
Step-by-step explanation:
Given P(A) = 0.20 and P(B) = 0.35
Applying probability of success and failure; P(success) + P( failure) = 1
a) probability that the component does not fail the test = The component does not fail a particular test [P(success)] = 1 - P(A)
= 1 - 0.20 = 0.80
b) probability that the component works perfectly well
= P( the component works perfectly well) - P(component shows strain but does not fail test)
= 0.80 - 0.35 = 0.45
c) probability that the component either fails or shows strain in the test = 1 - P(the component works perfectly well)
= 1 - 0.45 = 0.55
