Answer:

$14\frac{2}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given phrase,

12 divided by 5/6

$\frac{12}{\frac{5}{6}}$

Using property $\frac{a}{b/c}=\frac{ac}{b}$

$=\frac{12\times 6}{5}$

By solving the numerator,

$=\frac{72}{5}$

Simplify the fraction if possible,

$=14\frac{2}{5}$

When you divide by a fraction you are multiplying by the reciprocal (turn it up side down) of the fraction so...

12 times 5/6 = 72/5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know

total sum of angles = 540 deg

3/2 b cam also be written as 1.5b degrees.

So 1.5b + (b+45) + (2b - 90) +90 = 540

Step 1 -- get rid of parenthesis

1.5b + b + 45 +2b -90 +90 =540

Step 2 -- combine the like expressions

4.5b + 45 = 540

Step 3 -- subtract 45 from both the sides

4.5b = 495

Step 4 -- divide 4.5 from both the sides

b = 110 ----- not the right answer

Thats not right okay im sorry

but i guess if it is not 110 it should be 100, 90 etc.

90 = b is correct

Suppose the claim size of an auto collision insurance, X, is uniformly distributed on the interval $1,000 to $10,000. What is th

timurjin [86]

Answer:

35.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

If there were no deductibles, the expected claim payment would be:

$E(X) = \frac{10,000 +1,000}{2} \\E(X) =\$5,500$

If the collision insurance claim is under $2,000, then the insurer would not pay anything, but if X > $2,000, then the insurer would pay X - $2,000. The new expected value is:

$E_2(X)=\frac{2,000-1,000}{10,000-1,000} *0+\frac{10,000-2,000}{10,000-1,000}*\frac{(2,000-2,000)+(10,000-2,000)}{2} \\E_2(X)=\frac{8}{9}*\frac{0+8,000}{2}\\ E_2(X)=\$3,555.56$

The percentage reduction on the claim payment is:

$P=(1-\frac{E_2(X)}{E(X)})*100 \\P=(1-\frac{3,555.56}{5,500})*100\\P=35.35\%$

There was a 35.35% reduction.
