Answer: 2 7/15

Step-by-step explanation: First, you make sure you have the same denominator on both of the fractions.

4/5 turns to 12/15 and 1/3 turns to 5/15

After that, then you do 12/15 - 5/15, which is 7/15.

Now you do 3 - 1.

Your answer should be 2 7/15.

I hope this helps you and I hope you have a blessed day!

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

1) yes ; 2) 1/36 ; 3) 1/36 ; 4) 1/18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Two fair dice : 1 green ; 1 red

A) Are the outcomes on the dice independent:

Yes, becomes the outcome of the green dice does not have any effect on the outcome of the red dice.

B) Find P(1 on green die and 5 on red die).

Probability = (number of required outcome) / (total possible outcomes)

Total outcomes of a dice = 6

P(1 on green) = 1 / 6

P(5 on red) = 1/6

P(1 on green die and 5 on red die) :

(1/ 6) × (1/6) = 1/36

C) Find P(5 on green die and 1 on red die)

P(5 on green) = 1/6

P(1 on red) = 1/6

Find P(5 on green die and 1 on red die):

1/6 × 1/6 = 1/36

D) Find P((1 on green die and 5 on red die) or (5 on green die and 1 on red die))

P(5 on green die and 1 on red die) = 1/36

P(1 on green die and 5 on red die) = 1/36

P((1 on green die and 5 on red die) or (5 on green die and 1 on red die)) =

P(5 on green die and 1 on red die) + P(1 on green die and 5 on red die)

= (1/36 + 1/36) = 2 /36 = 1/18

Steven invests $20,000 in an account earning 3% interest, compounded annually for 10 years. Three years after Stevens's initial

Effectus [21]

The formula to find the amount is

here A is amount

P is the principal

'r' is the rate of interest

n is the number of years.

Case 1.

Stevan invests

P =$ 20,000

r = 3% = 0.03

n = 10 years

Hence the interest earned

= A - P = 26878.33 - 20000 = $6878.33

Case 2.

Evan invests

P = $10,000

r = 7% = 0.07

n = 7 years

Hence the interest earned

= A - P = 16057.81 - 10000 = 6057.81

Difference in the interest = 6878.33 - 6057.81 = $820.52

Rounded to the nearest dollar difference in interest = $821

The mean life of a television set is 119 months with a standard deviation of 14 months. If a sample of 74 televisions is randoml

irina [24]

Answer:

50.34% probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.1 months

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central limit theorem:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 119, \sigma = 14, n = 74, s = \frac{14}{\sqrt{74}} = 1.63$

If a sample of 74 televisions is randomly selected, what is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.1 months

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 119 + 1.1 = 120.1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 119 - 1.1 = 117.9. So

X = 120.1

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$
