Place these numbers in order from greatest to least. 19/5, 1.62, –14/3, –0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello my name is Galaxy and I'll be helping you today. I hope you are having a nice day!

Simplification

To figure out how we can order them, we can first simplify the problems so that we can easily determine its place. We can put the fractions into decimal form so that they are are in one form and will be easy for us to comprehend.

$\frac{19}{5}=3\frac{4}{5}=3.80$

We know that $\frac{1}{5}$ is equal to 0.20 because we know that 1.00 will be equal to 100 in this case and we can divide that by five to get 20 which will be divided back to get to 0.20.

As I've explained how I've simplified the first one, simplifying the others should be a quite similar process, feel free to comment below if you need any assistance with this.

$\frac{19}{5}=3.80\\1.62=1.62\\\frac{-14}{3}=-4.6667\\ -0.5=-0.5$

(Everything simplified to decimal form.)

We can now proceed to ordering them.

Ordering

Ordering decimals doesn't have to be as hard as it looks, we know that as per the number line a number that is more negative (e.g. -37) will be less than (e.g. -5) as it is closer to the number 0.

Now that we know how to order the negative numbers, we can order them into order, and for ordering the positive numbers, we should already know how to do that.

So, now, in order from Greatest to Least. We can order them by what I said above.

$3.80>1.62>-0.5>-4.666$

We can convert the numbers back into their original form by looking at how we converted them in the Simplification section.

Final Answer

After converting them into a way that we can comprehend, we get our final answer in terms of greatest to least as:

$\frac{19}{5}>1.62>-0.5>\frac{-14}{3}$

Cheers!

Answer:

Solution ( Second Attachment ) : - 2.017 + 0.656i

Solution ( First Attachment ) : 16.140 - 5.244i

Step-by-step explanation:

Second Attachment : The quotient of the two expressions would be the following,

$6\left[\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{2\pi \:}{5}\right)\right]$ ÷ $2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{2}\right)\right]$

So if we want to determine this expression in standard complex form, we can first convert it into trigonometric form, then apply trivial identities. Either that, or we can straight away apply the following identities and substitute,

( 1 ) cos(x) = sin(π / 2 - x)

( 2 ) sin(x) = cos(π / 2 - x)

If cos(x) = sin(π / 2 - x), then cos(2π / 5) = sin(π / 2 - 2π / 5) = sin(π / 10). Respectively sin(2π / 5) = cos(π / 2 - 2π / 5) = cos(π / 10). Let's simplify sin(π / 10) and cos(π / 10) with two more identities,

( 1 ) $\cos \left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=\sqrt{\frac{1+\cos \left(x\right)}{2}}$

( 2 ) $\sin \left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=\sqrt{\frac{1-\cos \left(x\right)}{2}}$

These two identities makes sin(π / 10) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ , and cos(π / 10) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ .

Therefore cos(2π / 5) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ , and sin(2π / 5) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ . Substitute,

$6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right]$ ÷ $2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{2}\right)\right]$

Remember that cos(- π / 2) = 0, and sin(- π / 2) = - 1. Substituting those values,

$6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right]$ ÷ $2\sqrt{2}\left[0-i\right]$

And now simplify this expression to receive our answer,

$6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right]$ ÷ $2\sqrt{2}\left[0-i\right]$ = $-\frac{3\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}+\frac{3\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}i$ ,

$-\frac{3\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ = $-2.01749\dots$ and $\:\frac{3\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ = $0.65552\dots$

= $-2.01749+0.65552i$

As you can see our solution is option c. - 2.01749 was rounded to - 2.017, and 0.65552 was rounded to 0.656.

________________________________________

First Attachment : We know from the previous problem that cos(2π / 5) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ , sin(2π / 5) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ , cos(- π / 2) = 0, and sin(- π / 2) = - 1. Substituting we receive a simplified expression,

$6\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}-6i\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}$

We know that $6\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}} = 16.13996\dots$ and $-\:6\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}} = -5.24419\dots$ . Therefore,

Solution : $16.13996 - 5.24419i$

Which rounds to about option b.

Find the probability that when a couple has three children, at least one of themis a girl. (Assume that boys and girls are equal

kvv77 [185]

Answer: $\bold{\dfrac{7}{8}=87.5\%}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

"At least one girl" means P(1 girl) + P(2 girls) + P(3 girls) or 1 - P(all boys)

I will use the latter: 1 - P(all boys)

P(all boys) = $\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1}{8}$

$1 - P(all\ boys) \quad = \quad 1-\dfrac{1}{8}\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{7}{8}}$
