Yes, the two ratios are equivalent. If you multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 6, you will get 18/42.
The <em>correct answer</em> is:
|w-20| ≤ 0.12.
Explanation:
We first find the average of the two ends of the inequality:
(19.88+20.12)/2 = 40/2 = 20
This will be the number subtracted from w in the inequality.
Now we find the difference between this value and the ends:
20-19.88 = 0.12
20.12 - 20 = 0.12
This will be what our absolute value inequality ends with; the "answer" part, so to speak.
Since this inequality is written in compact form, it must be an "and" inequality; this means the absolute value inequality must be a "less than or equal to."
This gives us
|w-20| ≤ 0.12
Answer:
0.098
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that when filling out the 2000 Census, people could choose one of four options to describe their marital status.
Data from the 2000 Census were used to compute the following probabilities
Marital status Never married Married widowed Divorced total
Prob 0.239 0.595 0.068 0.098 1
Actually we were not given probability for divorced but using total probability =1 we arrived at the probability for divorced as
1-sum of the remaining probabilities
=
the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is divorced
= 0.098
Answer: 7/12
Step-by-step explanation: Given that,
(5/6) - (1/4) = ?
The difference Will be, take L.C.M. of 6 and 4 which is 12, then we get,
= ( 10 - 3 ) / 12
= 7 /12
