Answer:

17 1/4 is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we want to convert both mixed fractions into an improper fraction.

11 5/8 = 93/8                                                                                                                    

5 5/8 = 45/8

Then, we simply add the 2 fractions : 93/8 + 45/8 = 138/8 = 69/4 when simplified. In mixed numbers, the answer is 17 1/4.

To add mixed numbers like you have here, you first have to convert them into fractions.

To do this, multiply the whole number part of the mixed number by the denominator, and add that value to the numerator.

So, 5 5/8 would become 45/8, because 5 x 8 = 40, and 40 + 5 = 45.
Likewise, 11 5/8 would become 93/8, because 11 x 8 = 88, and 88 + 5 = 93.
This gives us 45/8 + 93/8.

Now, to add the fractions. The two fractions have the same denominator already, so it is easy to add them. Simply add the numerators and keep the denominator the same.
The result of this is 143/8.

To simplify this to mixed number form, divide the numerator by the denominator. This results in 17.875. This means that 17 is your whole number part of the mixed number.
To find out how many eighths you'll have, multiply the 17 you just got by the denominator (8), and subtract the result from your large numerator. 17 x 8 = 136, and 143 - 136 = 7.

Your final result is 17 and 7/8.

An automobile insurance company issues a one-year policy with a deductible of 500. The probability is 0.8 that the insured autom
Effectus [21]

Answer:

y₀.₉₅ = 3659

Step-by-step explanation:

P( no accident ) = 0.8

P( one accident ) = 0

deductible = 500

mean = 3000

<u>Determine the 95th percentile of the insurance company payout </u>

Assuming : y =company payout , x =amount of loss incurred due to accident

Then :

P( x < 500 ) = 0.2 ( 1 - e^-500/3000)

                   = 0.2 ( 1 - e^-1/6 )

95th percentile =

= P( y < y₀.₉₅  ) 0.95

  P( y = 0 ) = 0.8 + 0.2 ( 1 - e^-1/6 ) = 0.8307

attached below is the remainder of the solution

Black_prince [1.1K]
Average must be 225 or more
4 games so
\frac{score1+score2+score3+score4}{4}  \geq 225
score1=192
score2=214
score3=250
score4=?
so
\frac{192+214+250+?}{4}  \geq 225
\frac{656+?}{4}  \geq 225
times both sides by 4 to clear fraction
656+?≥900
minus 656 from both sides
?≥244
