Find the value of x and y so that both proportions will be correct:

Mathematics
1 answer:
andrew11 [14]3 years ago

The values of x and y are 0.2 and 0.4 respectively.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

The given proportions are.....

x: 1\frac{2}{3}=y: 3\frac{1}{3} and y:1.5=0.2:0.75

From the second proportion, we will get....

y:1.5=0.2:0.75\\ \\ \frac{y}{1.5}=\frac{0.2}{0.75} \\ \\ 0.75y=0.2*1.5\\ \\ 0.75y=0.3\\ \\ y=\frac{0.3}{0.75}=0.4

Now, we will plug this y=0.4 into the first proportion. So we will get....

x: 1\frac{2}{3}=y: 3\frac{1}{3}\\ \\ x: \frac{5}{3}=0.4:\frac{10}{3} \\ \\ \frac{x}{\frac{5}{3}}= \frac{0.4}{\frac{10}{3}}\\ \\ \frac{3x}{5}=\frac{1.2}{10}\\ \\ 30x=6\\ \\ x= \frac{6}{30}=0.2

So, the values of x and y are 0.2 and 0.4 respectively.

Should the quotient of an integer divided by a nonzero integer always be a rational number? Why or Why not?
lubasha [3.4K]
Yes, it will always be a rational number. I'll expound on this by defining what a rational number is. It is any number that can be expressed as a fraction. Otherwise, it is called an irrational number with a non-terminating decimal expansion. So, although 1/3 has a non-terminating decimal expansion because it is equal to 0.33333333...., it is still a rational number because it can be expressed into a fraction.

In this exercise, we are conducting many hypothesis tests to test a claim. Assume that the null hypothesis is true. If 400 tests
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Since the null hypothesis is true, finding the significance is a type I error.

The probability of the year I error = level of significance = 0.05.

so, the number of tests that will be incorrectly found significant is computed as follow: 0.05 * 100 = 5

Therefore, 5 tests will be incorrectly found significant given that the null hypothesis is true.
