Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:The operation of comparing fractions:

4/9 vs. 6/15

Reduce (simplify) fractions to their lowest terms equivalents:

4/9 already reduced to the lowest terms;

the numerator and the denominator have no common prime factors:

4 = 22;

9 = 32;

6/15 = (2 × 3)/(3 × 5) = ((2 × 3) ÷ 3)/((3 × 5) ÷ 3) = 2/5;

Reduce (simplify) fractions to their simplest form, online calculator

Calculate LCM, the least common multiple of the numerators of the fractions

LCM will be the common numerator of the compared fractions.

The prime factorization of the numerators:

4 = 22;

2 is a prime number;

Multiply all the unique prime factors, by the largest exponents:

LCM (4, 2) = 22 = 4                                                                                                   Calculate the expanding number of each fraction

Divide LCM by the numerator of each fraction:

For fraction: 4/9 is 4 ÷ 4 = 22 ÷ 22 = 1;

For fraction: 2/5 is 4 ÷ 2 = 22 ÷ 2 = 2;

Expand the fractions

Build up all the fractions to the same numerator (which is LCM).

Multiply the numerators and the denominators by their expanding number:

4/9 = (1 × 4)/(1 × 9) = 4/9;

2/5 = (2 × 2)/(2 × 5) = 4/10;

Answer:

The number of people in one session that will spend within two standard deviations below the mean and one standard deviations above the mean time on Facespace is 394 people

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The mean time spent of Facespace, μ = 30 minutes

The standard deviation of the time spent daily, σ = 6 minutes

The number of people in one sitting, n = 2900 people

The time spent two standard deviations below the mean = 30 - 12 = 18 minutes

The time spent one standard deviations above the mean = 30 + 6 = 36 minutes

The Z-score values are;

Z=\dfrac{x-\mu }{\sigma }

Which gives;

For x = 30

Z=\dfrac{36-30 }{6 } = 1

For x = 18

Z=\dfrac{18-30 }{6 } = -2

From the z-score table, we have;

P(Z > -2) = 1 - 0.02275 = 0.97725

P(Z < 1) = 0.84134

Therefore, the probability P(-2 < Z < 1) = 0.97725  - 0.84134 = 0.13591

Given that there are 2900 are on in one sitting, the number of them that will lie within two standard deviations below the mean and one standard deviations above the mean = 2900 × 0.13591 = 394.139 which is approximately 394 people.

How do I do this? Please provide steps.

Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Soh Cah Toa

In some trigonometry classes, this acronym is very important to solving questions like this.

Why?

It tells us the right triangle-definition of these trigonometry functions.

We have that cosine of an angle is equal to tge side that is adjacent to it over the hypotenuse.

So here we are asked to find cos(B).

Lets look at triangle respect to the angle B

The measurement of the side that is opposite is 64.

The measurement of the side that is adjacent is 48.

The measurement of the hypotenuse is 80.

So cos(B)=48/80.

Let's reduce. 48 and 80 have a common factor of 8 so divide numerator and dexter by 8. This gives us:

cos(B)=6/10.

One more step in reducing. Both factors are even so cos(B)=3/5.
