If Jim missed 6 out of 16 free throws, then he made 10/16 free throws. At the same time Gracia made 4/15 free rows. The common denominator of those fractions (if we simplify 10/16 to 5/8) is 120, so:

Garcia made 4/15 = 32/120 free throws
Jim made 5/8 = 75/120 free throws

We can clearly see that Jim was more than two times better than Garcia.

The time to complete the construction of a soapbox derby car is normally distributed with a mean of three hours and a standard d
TEA [102]

Answer:

The probability that it would take more than four hours to construct a soapbox derby car = 0.1587 or 15.87\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

Mean (\nu )  = 3 hours

Standard deviation (\sigma  ) = 1 hours

Let X be the no of hours to construct a soapbox derby car

the probability that it would take more than four hours to construct a soapbox derby car =

P(X > 4)  = P(\frac{X - \nu }{\sigma}> \frac{4 - 3 }{1})

                = P(Z > 1)                   Put (Z = \frac{X - \nu }{\sigma})

                 =  1 -  P(Z <  1)            

                 =  1 - .8413                    Using z table

                  = 0.1587

Write 83 as a sum of tens and ones
Hoochie [10]
Well,

We can see that there are 8 10's and 3 1's.  So we can write 8 10's followed by 3 1's and join them with addition symbols.

83 = 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 1 + 1 + 1

tatiyna
Answer: 1.2 liters remain

1 liter = 1000 milliliters
if there’s two liters, that’s 2000 milliliters. the mom then poured 2 glasses each with 400 milliliters, or 800 milliliters in total. 2000 - 800 = 1200. 1200 milliliters converted into liters = 1.2 liters.
