Multiplying by 2 then dividing by 3 is the same as multiplying by 2/3 as you also divide by 3, but in one step.

Hope this helps!

The highway mileage m in miles per gallon for a compact car is approximated by m(s) = -0.025s^2 + 2.45s - 30, where s is the spe

Over [174]

The maximum mileage per gallon for the compact car is determined by taking the first derivative of the given equation and equate to zero. The differentiated form is m's = -0.05 s + 2.45 = 0; s is equal to 49 seconds. substituting this s, m is equal to 30.025 miles/gallon.

A new surgical procedure is said to be successful 60% of the time. Suppose the operation is performed five times and the results

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

0.07776, 0.3456,0.08704

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a new surgical procedure is said to be successful 60% of the time

Let X be the no of successes

Then X has only two outcomes and each trial is independent of the other

Hence X is binomial with p = prob of success in a single trial = 0.60

n = Number of operations performed = 5
