When writing 3.7272727272... as a ratio of integers, what is the common ratio?

Law Incorporation [45]

The answer is: "41 / 11 " ; or, write as: " 41 : 11 " .
__________________________________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________________________________
72/99 = (72÷9) / (99÷9) = 8/ 11 .

So, 3.727272727272... = "3 $\frac{8}{11}$ " .

→ "3 $\frac{8}{11}$ " = [(11 *3) + 8] / 11 = (33 + 8) / 11 = 41 / 11 .
__________________________________________________________
"41 / 11" cannot be simplified any further; so the answer is:
__________________________________________________________
"41 / 11 " ; or, write as: " 41 : 11 " .

Carlos' score was 2 standard deviations from the mean, so his z-score was 2.0. You can either use the empirical 68-95-98.5 rule, or you can plug it into your calculator as <u>normalcdf(-999, 2) = .977</u>

So 97.7% of people had a score lower than Carlos!

.977 * 1.5 million = 1,465,500 people

The final velocity (v) is given by the formula v = v0 + at, where v0 is initial velocity, v is final velocity, a is acceleration

Alona [7]

For this case we have the following equation:
v = v0 + at
Where, we have the following values:
v0 = 20 meters / second
a = 1.5 meters / second2
t = 4 seconds
Substituting values we have:
v = 20 + (1.5) * 4
v = 26 meters / second
Answer:
The car's final velocity is:
v = 26 meters / second
