1 2/7 minus what equals 6/7

Mathematics

Bad White [126]3 years ago
5 0

Change all mixed fractions to improper fractions.

1 2/7 = 7/7 + 2/7 = 9/7.

Subtract

9/7 - 6/7 = 3/7

3/7 is your answer

Hope this helps

When we toss a coin, there are two possible outcomes: a head or a tail. Suppose that we toss a coin 100 times. Estimate the appr
marin [14]

Answer:

96.42% probability that the number of tails is between 40 and 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to use the binomial approximation to the normal to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value 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. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that \mu = E(X), \sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}.

In this problem, we have that:

100 tosses, so n = 100

Two outcomes, both equally as likely. So p = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5

So

E(X) = np = 100*0.5 = 50

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{100*0.5*0.5} = 5

Estimate the approximate probability that the number of tails is between 40 and 60.

Using continuity correction.

P(40 - 0.5 \leq X \leq 60 + 0.5) = P(39.5 \leq X \leq 60.5)

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 60.5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 39.5. So

X = 60.5

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{60.5 - 50}{5}

Z = 2.1

Z = 2.1 has a pvalue of 0.9821

X = 39.5

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{39.5 - 50}{5}

Z = -2.1

Z = -2.1 has a pvalue of 0.0179

0.9821 - 0.0179 = 0.9642

96.42% probability that the number of tails is between 40 and 60.

Collin's retirement party costs $4 for every guest he invites. What is the maximum number of guests there can be if Collin can a
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Collin can invite maximum 6 guest to his retirement party.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost of retirement party = $24

Cost to be spend on each guest = $4

Number of guests to be invited in the retirement party= x

x\times \$4=\$24

x=\frac{\$24}{\$4}

x = 6

Collin can invite maximum 6 guest to his retirement party.
