1/2 are science because if you make 1/3, 2/6 + 1/6= 3/6. 3/6 = 1/2. 1/2 and 1/2 make a whole.

Can you divide an odd number into two equal groups
Maslowich

Answer:

No you can not it would come out as a decimal form.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 divided by 2 is 1.5 or 1 1/2

This is not divided evenly between each other

This proves that (no) anything that is a odd number can not be divided equally

Assume the hold time of callers to a cable company is normally distributed with a mean of 5.5 minutes and a standard deviation o
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The percent of callers are 37.21 who are on hold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A normally distributed data.

Mean of the data, \mu = 5.5 mins

Standard deviation, \sigma = 0.4 mins

We have to find the callers percentage who are on hold between 5.4 and 5.8 mins.

Lets find z-score on each raw score.

⇒ z_1=\frac{x_1-\mu}{\sigma}   ...raw score,x_1 = 5.4

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ z_1=\frac{5.4-5.5}{0.4}

⇒ z_1=-0.25  

For raw score 5.5 the z score is.

⇒ z_2=\frac{5.8-5.5}{0.4}  

⇒ z_2=0.75

Now we have to look upon the values from Z score table and arrange them in probability terms then convert it into percentages.

We have to work with P(5.4<z<5.8).

⇒ P(5.4

⇒ P(-0.25

⇒ P(z

⇒ z(1.5)=0.7734 and z(-0.25)=0.4013.<em>..from z -score table.</em>

⇒ 0.7734-0.4013

⇒ 0.3721

To find the percentage we have to multiply with 100.

⇒ 0.3721\times 100

⇒ 37.21 %

The percent of callers who are on hold between 5.4 minutes to 5.8 minutes is 37.21

I got 1/81. because u spun the spinner twice i multiplied the regions you are allowed to get by 2 which makes your denominator 18 then you can get the numbers 3 and 6 twice since the spinner is used twice then multiplied them together. so it would be 2/18 x 2/18 = 4/324 which equals 1/81
