Answer: B. \dfrac{7}{8}\text{ divided by}\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{7}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression to represent the number of a in b (where b>a) is given by :-

b\div a=\dfrac{b}{a}

Similarly, the expression to represent the number of \dfrac{1}{4} centimeter that are in \dfrac{7}{8} centimeter.

\dfrac{7}{8}\div\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{8}\times\dfrac{4}{1}=\dfrac{7}{2}

Hence, the correct answer is \dfrac{7}{8}\text{ divided by }\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{7}{2}

Suppose that in a casino game the payout is a random variable X . If X is positive, you gain money, if negative, you lose.
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

the conditional probability that X = 1 , X = 2 and X = 3 is  0.7333 (73.33%) , 0.25 (25%) and 0.0167 (1.67%) respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

a player wins money when i>0 then defining event W= gain money , then

P(W) = p(i>0) = p(1)+p(2)+p(3)

then the conditional probability can be calculated through the theorem of Bayes

P(X=1/W)= P(X=1 ∩ W)/P(W)

where

P(X=1 ∩ W)= probability that the payout is 1 and earns money

P(X=1 / W)= probability that the payout is 1 given money was earned

then

P(X=1/W)= P(X=1 ∩ W)/P(W) = P(X=1) / P(W) = p(1) /[p(1)+p(2)+p(3)] = 11/40 /(11/40+3/32+1/160 ) = 0.7333 (73.33%)

similarly

P(X=2/W)=p(2) /[p(1)+p(2)+p(3)] = 3/32 /(11/40+3/32+1/160 ) = 0.25 (25%)

P(X=3/W)=p(2) /[p(1)+p(2)+p(3)] = 1/160 /(11/40+3/32+1/160 ) = 0.0167 (1.67%)

Mrs marks has 9 1/4 ounces of fertilizer for her plants. She plans on using 3/4 ounce of fertilizer for each plant. How many pla
fenix001 [56]
"<span>9 1/4 ounces of fertilizer, 3/4 ounce of fertilizer for each plant."

Divide the total amt. of fert. by the amt. that goes to each plant:

9 1/4 oz
-----------------------
(3/4) oz per plant

Convert 9 1/4 to an improper fraction:  9 1/4 = 37/4.

Now divide 37/4 by 3/4, or divide 37 by 3.  Result:  12 1/3 plants.

Ms. Marks can fertilize 12 plants and have 1/3 oz of fertilizer left over.</span>
