Answer:

1/3 < 2/5 < 3/7 < 5/8 < 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given inputs:

3/4 5/8 3/7 1/3 2/5

The least common denominator (LCD) is: 840.

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

3/4= 630/840

5/8= 525/840

3/7= 360/840

1/3= 280/840

2/5= 336/840

Sorting this by the numerators of the equivalent fractions in order from least to greatest:

1/3= 280/840= < 2/5= 336/840= < 3/7= 360/840= < 5/8= 525/840= < 3/4 = 630/840

Therefore, the sorted inputs in order from least to greatest is:

1/3 < 2/5 < 3/7 < 5/8 < 3/4

Hopes this helps!

Have a good evening! :)

Answer:

Step-Question: The amount of money spent weekly on cleaning, maintenance, and repairs at a large restaurant was ...

The amount of money spent weekly on cleaning, maintenance, and repairs at a large restaurant was observed over a long period of time to be approximately normally distributed, with mean ? = $615 and standard deviation ? = $38.

(a) If $646 is budgeted for next week, what is the probability that the actual costs will exceed the budgeted amount? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

(b) How much should be budgeted for weekly repairs, cleaning, and maintenance so that the probability that the budgeted amount will be exceeded in a given week is only0.08? (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.)

Select all pairs of numbers that have a least common multiple of 30.

ddd [48]

5 and 6 and 3 and 10, the pairs of numbers that have a least common multiple of 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Case 1: LCM (3, 6)

Prime factorization of 3: $1 \times 3$

Prime factorization of 6: $2 \times 3$

Using all prime numbers found as often as each occurs most often we take

$2 \times 3=6$

Therefore LCM (3, 6) = 6.

Case 2: LCM (5, 6)

Prime factorization of 5: $1 \times 5$

Prime factorization of 6: $2 \times 3$

Using all prime numbers found as often as each occurs most often we take

$5 \times 2 \times 3=30$

Therefore LCM (5, 6) = 30

Case 3: LCM (3, 10)

Prime factorization of 3: $1 \times 3$

Prime factorization of 10: $2 \times 5$

Using all prime numbers found as often as each occurs most often we take

$5 \times 2 \times 3=30$

Therefore LCM (3, 10) = 30

Case 4: LCM (5, 10)

Prime factorization of 5: $1 \times 5$

Prime factorization of 10: $2 \times 5$

Using all prime numbers found as often as each occurs most often we take

$5 \times 2=10$

Therefore LCM (5, 10) = 10

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

whichever of these formats you need its the same answer (16/6) or 2.66666 or (2 and 2/3rds)

Step-by-step explanation:

replace smaller variable with x for example

(x) + (5x-1) = 17

6x-1=17

6x=16

x=(16/6 or 2.666666 or 2and2/3)

The lifetime of a battery in a certain application is normally distributed with mean μ = 16 hours and standard deviation σ = 2 h

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Probability that a battery will last more than 19 hours is 0.0668.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the lifetime of a battery in a certain application is normally distributed with mean μ = 16 hours and standard deviation σ = 2 hours.

Let X = lifetime of a battery in a certain application

So, X ~ N( $\mu=16,\sigma^{2} =2^{2}$ )

The z-score probability distribution for normal distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{ X -\mu}{\sigma}$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = mean lifetime = 16 hours

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 2 hours

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X.

So, the probability that a battery will last more than 19 hours is given by = P(X > 19 hours)

P(X > 19) = P( $\frac{ X -\mu}{\sigma}$ > $\frac{19-16}{2}$ ) = P(Z > 1.50) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 1.50)

= 1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

Now, in the z table the P(Z $\leq$ x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.50 in the z table which has an area of 0.9332.

Hence, the probability that a battery will last more than 19 hours is 0.0668.
