Well if it pumps 4 2/5 per minute that is equal to 4 4/10 in a minute or 4.4 because you multiply the top and bottom of the fraction by two. it’s still the same fraction but it is easy to convert to a decimal now. you could use this fraction but it’s much easier to use decimals. Because the first number is a decimal you should make the second one a decimal too. To do this you need to know that 1/4 of 100 is 25. so now we have these numbers and all you do now is divide 17.25 by 4.4 which could be rounded to 4 because it’s a long decimal

Need help with this!!
wariber [46]

Answer:

below

Step-by-step explanation:

1) slope = rise / run

2 coordinates are (-4, 0), (0, 2).

2 - 0 = 2

0 -- 4 = 4

2 / 4 = 1/2 so the slope is 0.5 or ½

2) it crosses the y axis at the average of the origin and 4.

4 + 0 = 4 / 2 = 2 so y intercept is 2.

3) in y= mx + b form

f(x) = ½x + 2, or, f(x) = 0.5x + 2

Each day in Bio 18, Derek leaves a stack of paper packets near the entry door for students to obtain. Eighty-one percent of stud
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial probability distribution because there are only 2 possible outcomes. It is either a randomly selected student grabs a packet before being seated or the student sits first before grabbing a packet. The probability of success, p in this scenario would be that a randomly selected student sits first before grabbing a packet. Therefore,

p = 1 - 0.81 = 0.91

n = 9 students

x = number of success = 3

The probability that exactly two students sit first before grabbing a packet, P(x = 2) would be determined from the binomial probability distribution calculator. Therefore,

P(x = 2) = 0.297
