Subtract fractions with different denominators

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

$\frac{10}{15}-\frac{2}{5}=\frac{4}{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

A fraction consists of two integers—one on the top, and one on the bottom.
The top one is numerator, the bottom one is denominator, and
These two numbers are separated by a line.

Let us consider two different fractions with different denominators

$\frac{10}{15}$

$\frac{2}{5}$

Lets subtract the two fractions

$\frac{10}{15}-\frac{2}{5}\:\:\:\:$

$\mathrm{Cancel\:}\frac{10}{15}:\quad \frac{2}{3}$

$=\frac{2}{3}-\frac{2}{5}$

$\mathrm{Least\:Common\:Multiplier\:of\:}3,\:5:\quad 15$

$\mathrm{Adjust\:Fractions\:based\:on\:the\:LCM}$

$\mathrm{For}\:\frac{2}{3}:\:\mathrm{multiply\:the\:denominator\:and\:numerator\:by\:}\:5$

$\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2\cdot \:5}{3\cdot \:5}=\frac{10}{15}$

$\mathrm{For}\:\frac{2}{5}:\:\mathrm{multiply\:the\:denominator\:and\:numerator\:by\:}\:3$

$\frac{2}{5}=\frac{2\cdot \:3}{5\cdot \:3}=\frac{6}{15}$

$=\frac{10}{15}-\frac{6}{15}$

$\mathrm{Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions}:\quad \frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c}$

$=\frac{10-6}{15}$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:10-6=4$

$=\frac{4}{15}$

Therefore,

$\frac{10}{15}-\frac{2}{5}=\frac{4}{15}$

What are the mean absolute deviation and population standard deviation of this data set? Round to the nearest tenth if necessary

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

For a data set of N elements:

{x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ}

The mean is:

$M = \frac{x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_n}{N}$

The mean absolute deviation is:

$MAD = \frac{|x_1 - M| + ... + |x_n - M|}{N}$

And the population standard deviation is:

$PSD = \frac{\sqrt{|x_1 - M|^2 + ... + |x_n - M|^2} }{\sqrt{N}}$

In this case, our set has 5 elements, and the set is:

{2, 4, 6, 9, 14}

The mean of this set is:

$M = \frac{2 + 4 + 6 + 9 + 14}{5} = 7$

The mean absolute deviation is:

$MAD = \frac{|2 - 7| + |4 - 7| + |6 - 7|+ |9 - 7| + |14 - 7| }{5} = 3.6$

And the population standard deviation is:

$PSD = \sqrt{\frac{|2 - 7|^2 + |4 - 7|^2 + |6 - 7|^2+ |9 - 7|^2 + |14 - 7|^2 }{5}} = 4.2$

If 20 were added to each of the vlaues in a data set that originally had a standard deviation of 8, the standard deviation of th

Nitella [24]

Answer:

False (I assume it's a true/false question)

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviation measures how spread out the data is. If you add 8 to all the data values, the distribution of data moves to the right (on a graph) 8 units. The shifted data are no more and no less spread out than before. The standard deviation does not change.
