What am I supposed to be answering here?? How old Daniel is, or how old Kevin is?

We have 3 + d - 2 = 4d - 8;
then - d + 1 = 4d - 8;
9 = 3d:
d = 3.
Finally, k = 6 years.

Fraction that less than 5/6 and has a denominator of 8

AnnyKZ [126]

A fraction that is less than 5/6 and has a denominator of 8 would be 4/8 because if you compare 4/8 and 5/6 4/8 is less than 5/6. (to compare this two fractions you need to make them have the same denominator so they would end up been 4/8=12/24
5/6=20/24
And 12/24 is smaller than 20/24
(Besides 4/8 is half and 5/6 is more than half

Find the four rational numbers and irrational numbers between 2/5 and 5/6

Savatey [412]

The four?

Of course there are an infinite number of rationals between any two different real numbers, as well as an even bigger infinite number of irrationals.

The average will be between the numbers:

$\frac 1 2 (\frac 2 5 + \frac 5 6) = \dfrac{37}{60}$

That's a lot of work to get a number in between. We can just see

$\frac 1 2$
is between the two numbers.

The mediant, or freshman addition, will always be in between:

$\dfrac{2 + 5}{5 + 6} = \dfrac{7}{11}$

2/5=.4 and 5/6 is about .83, so

$.6 = \frac{6}{10}$

is in between as is .7, .41, .530940394 and as many rationals as we care to generate.

To get irrationals we could just add a teeny irrational to the ones we just generated, like $\frac{6}{10} + \frac{\pi}{100}$

We could just change that denominator a bit and get as many as we like.

But let's get some square roots. The geometric mean will be between

$\sqrt{ \dfrac 2 5 \cdot \dfrac 5 6 } = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}
$

That's the tangent from one of trig's biggest cliches, but I digress. It's in between.

While we're on trig cliches,

$\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$

is in between as well.

Keeping with the trig theme, also in between are

$\dfrac{\pi} 6$

and

$\dfrac{\pi}{4}$

the angles associated with the some of the above trig function values.

We could obviously go on as long as we cared to.

Suppose that a box of 86 circuits is sent to a manufacturing plant. Of the 86 circuits shipped, 5 are defective. The plant manag

Triss [41]

Answer:

the probability that the shipment is accepted is 0.8865

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

N = 86, n/d = 5 and n = 2

now, without replacement

the probability that the shipment is accepted will be;

probability that the shipment is accepted = probability that non is defectives

so p( non is defective ) = ( (86-5)/86) × ((86-5-1)/(86-1))

p( non is defective ) = ( 81 / 86) × (80/85)

p( non is defective ) = 0.8865

Therefore, the probability that the shipment is accepted is 0.8865
