First, let's convert the mixed number 1 1/2 to the improper fraction 3/2. We're given that it takes 3/2 days to install 3/5 of a fence. We're looking for how long it takes to install one whole fence - or 5/5 of a fence. To determine that, let's first find out how long it takes to install <em>1/5 of a fence</em>, and then multiply that quantity by 5 to obtain our answer.

If it takes 3/2 days (3 half-days) to install 3/5 of a fence (3 fifths of a fence), then it makes sense that it would take <em>1/2 </em><em>day</em> (<em>1 </em>half-day) to install <em>1/5</em> of a fence (<em>1 </em>fifth of a fence).

If it takes 1/2 day to install 1/5 of a fence, then it should take 5 times that amount of time to install all 5/5 of it, or 5 * (1/2) = 5/2 days, or 2 1/2 days as a mixed number.

In a survey of 3450 registered voters who reside in California, 1789 were found to be republican. Construct a confidence estimat
Lina20 [59]
Sample size, N = 3450
Point estimate of republican, p = 1789/3450 = 0.5186 = 51.86%
Z = 1.96 at 95% confidence level

Now,
True percentage of republican residing in California = p +/- Z*Sqrt [p91-p)/N] = 0.5186+/- 1.96* Sqrt [0.5186(1-0.5186)/3450] = 0.5186+/-0.017 = (0.5016,0.5356) = (50.16%,53.56%).

7. Find DE ( Triangle mid-segment theorems)
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

45 units

Step-by-step explanation:

See the given diagram with the question here.

The point D and point E are the midpoints of line segments AC and BC respectively.

Therefore, the length of the line joining points D and E will be half of length AB.

Now, given that AB = 11x - 25 and DE = 4x + 1.

Hence, ( 11x - 25 ) = 2 ( 4x + 1 )

⇒ 3x = 33

⇒ x = 11

Therefore, length DE = 4x + 1 = 4 ( 11 ) + 1 = 45 units. (Answer)
