5/4 9/10 describe two methods you could use to compare the fractions

You could cross multiply I believe and see if they are equivalent. There is another way to do it. I’m not sure. I guess you could plug the numerator into a calculator and then divide by the denominator by both. You could then get decimals and see which is bigger.

When Ryan is serving at a restaurant, there is a 0.75 probability that each party will order drinks with their meal. During one

Triss [41]

Answer:

0.82 = 82% probability that at least one party will not order drinks

Step-by-step explanation:

For each party, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will order drinks with their meal, or they will not. The probability of a party ordering drinks with their meal is independent of other parties. So the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

When Ryan is serving at a restaurant, there is a 0.75 probability that each party will order drinks with their meal.

This means that $p = 0.75$

During one hour, Ryan served 6 parties. Assuming that each party is equally likely to order drinks, what is the probability that at least one party will not order drinks?

6 parties, so n = 6.

Either all parties will order drinks, or at least one will not. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

$P(X = 6) + P(X < 6) = 1$

We want P(X < 6). So

$P(X < 6) = 1 - P(X = 6)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 6) = C_{6,6}.(0.75)^{6}.(0.25)^{0} = 0.18$

$P(X < 6) = 1 - P(X = 6) = 1 - 0.18 = 0.82$

0.82 = 82% probability that at least one party will not order drinks

In the inequality 1/ 2 x - 6 > 10, x represents Todd's age. Which phrase most accurately describes Todd's age? A) Todd is old

Tom [10]

Answer:

Option A) Todd is older than 32

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$\frac{1}{2}x-6>10$

Solve for x

Adds 6 both sides

$\frac{1}{2}x>10+6\\\\\frac{1}{2}x>16$

Multiply by 2 both sides

$x>32$

Todd's age is greater than 32

therefore

Todd is older than 32

4/5 minus 1/3 plz i need help

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We can't subtract two fractions with different denominators. So you need to get a common denominator. To do this, you'll multiply the denominators times each other... but the numerators have to change, too. They get multiplied by the other term's denominator.

So we multiply 4 by 3, and get 12.

Then we multiply 1 by 5, and get 5.

Next we give both terms new denominators -- 5 × 3 = 15.

So now our fractions look like this:

−

Step 2

Since our denominators match, we can subtract the numerators.

12 − 5 = 7

So the answer is:

Step 3

Last of all, we need to simplify the fraction, if possible. Can it be reduced to a simpler fraction?

To find out, we try dividing it by 2...

Nope! So now we try the next greatest prime number, 3...

Nope! So now we try the next greatest prime number, 5...

Nope! So now we try the next greatest prime number, 7...

Nope! So now we try the next greatest prime number, 11...

No good. 11 is larger than 7. So we're done reducing.
