My son is trying to figure out how to decompose 8/12 and what he has to work with is x/2 + x/2 =8/12

X/2 + x/2 = 2x / 2 or just x. So x = 8/12 which can be simplified by their greatest common factor of 4. Divide both top and bottom by 4. This gives you x = 2/3. 

Your answer for that equation is x = 2/3

Not sure what you mean by "decompose" though.

The average lifetime of a set of tires is 3.4 years. The manufacturer will replace any set of tires failing within three years o
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: the probability that the tires will fail within three years of the date of purchase is 0.12

Step-by-step explanation:

The average lifetime of a set of tires is 3.4 years. It means that μ = 3.4

Decay parameter, m = 1/3.4 = 0.294

The probability density function is

f(x) = me^-mx

Where x is a continuous random variable representing the time interval of interest(the reliability period that we are testing)

Since x = 3 years,

Therefore, the probability that the tires will fail within three years of the date of purchase is

f(3) = 0.294e^-(0.294 × 3)

f(3) = 0.294e^- 0.882

f(3) = 0.12

In the group of hundred students68 likes football 60 likes volleyball how many likes only football
diamong [38]

Answer:

18 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount is 100

Take 68 and add to 60 to get 128.

Subtract from both numbers until you get to 50.

68 needs 18 subtracted to get to 50.

60 needs 10 to get to 50.

18 plus 10 is 28, which is the excess.

Here, 18 people like only football.

Solve the following equation. 2/3x + 6 =1/2 x + 1/4x
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

x = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3x + 6 = 1/2x + 1/4x

2/3x + 6 = 3/4x

3/4 - 2/3 = 1/12

6 = 1/12x

Multiply 6 by 12 to get x

x = 72
