'One third' as a decimal is 1 ÷ 3 = 0.333333..... ⇒ The decimal is recurring

'One fifth' as decimal is 1 ÷ 5 = 0.2 ⇒ The decimal terminates at the tenth value

'One seventh' as decimal 1 ÷ 7 = 0.142857142857.... ⇒ The decimal is recurring for every digit between 1 and 7

'One ninth' as decimal 1 ÷ 9 = 0.111111.... ⇒ The decimal is recurring

Answer: one fifth

Find the distance between the two points.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Hey there!

Distance formula:

d = $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})+(y_{2}-y_{1}) }$

Plug in variables:

d = $\sqrt{(0-(-6))+(0-(-7))}$

Simplify.

d = $\sqrt{6+7}$

d = $\sqrt{13}$

The distance between the two points is $\sqrt{13}$ units.

Hope this helps!

In studying the insurance preferences of homeowners the following conclusions are made: A homeowner is three times as likely to

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

0.632

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a homeowner is three times as likely to purchase additional jewelry coverage as additional electronics coverage

If probability of purchasing additional electronics coverage = p, then prob of purchasing jewelry coverage = 3p

The two events are independent hence joint probability is product of these two.

i.e. P(both) = $p(3p) =3p^2$

This is given as 0.2

$3p^2 =0.2\\p = 0.258$

the probability that a homeowner purchases exactly one coverage.

$=P(AUB)-P(A \bigcap B)$

= Prob he purchases I + prob he purchases II-2(prob he purchases both)

$= 0.258+3(0.258)-2(0.2)\\=0.632$

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-2,5) and (3/2, 2).

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2> $- \frac{6}{7}$ </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line passing through two points can be found by using the formula

<h3> $m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$ </h3>

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question

The points are (-2,5) and (3/2, 2)

The slope is

<h3> $m = \frac{2 - 5}{ \frac{3}{2} + 2} \\ = - \frac{3}{ \frac{7}{2} } \\ = - 3 \div \frac{7}{2} \\ = - 3 \times \frac{2}{7}$ </h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3> $- \frac{6}{7}$ </h3>

Hope this helps you
