Answer:
multiply each by -1
-5/6 x -1 = 5/6
-7 3/8 x -1 = 7 3/8
-3/11 x -1 = 3/11
Step-by-step explanation:
The question given is incomplete, I googled and got the complete question as below:
You are a waterman daily plying the waters of Chesapeake Bay for blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus), the best-tasting crustacean in the world. Crab populations and commercial catch rates are highly variable, but the fishery is under constant pressure from over-fishing, habitat destruction, and pollution. These days, you tend to pull crab pots containing an average of 2.4 crabs per pot. Given that you are economically challenged as most commercial fishermen are, and have an expensive boat to pay off, you’re always interested in projecting your income for the day. At the end of one day, you calculate that you’ll need 7 legal-sized crabs in your last pot in order to break even for the day. Use these data to address the following questions. Show your work.
a. What is the probability that your last pot will have the necessary 7 crabs?
b. What is the probability that your last pot will be empty?
Answer:
a. Probability = 0.0083
b. Probability = 0.0907
Step-by-step explanation:
This is Poisson distribution with parameter λ=2.4
a)
The probability that your last pot will have the necessary 7 crabs is calculated below:
P(X=7)= {e-2.4*2.47/7!} = 0.0083
b)
The probability that your last pot will be empty is calculated as:
P(X=0)= {e-2.4*2.40/0!} = 0.0907
Answer:
8/1.50 = 128/x
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, I put the amount of fruit drink over the cost!
8 ounces/$1.50
there are 128 ounces in a gallon and we want to find out the cost of a gallon, so we can put that as x!
128 ounces/x
There's your proportion! Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find the numerator:
2. Simplify the fraction:
Answer:
let the breadth of room be 'x'm
so the lenghth of room is 'x+8'm
Given
Area of room=48m²
i.e length ×breadth =48m²
or,(x+8)x=48
or,x²+8x-48=0
or,x²+12x-4x-48=0
or,x(x+12)-4(x+12)=0
or,(x+12)(x-4)=0
Either x+12=0
or,x=-12(which is not possible)
Or,x-4=0
or,x=4
Thus,breadth is 4m.
length=x+8=4+8=12m
The dimensions of room are 8m and 12m respectively.
