Any number that can be rewritten as a simple fraction is a rational number. This means that natural numbers, whole numbers and integers, like 5, are all part of the set of rational numbers as well because they can be written as fractions, as are mixed numbers like 1 ½.

On a number line, A is at 5 and B is at 50. Point X is the midpoint. Point T is 2/3 of the way from X to B. Determine the coordi

Lemur [1.5K]

Number lines are used to represent points at regular interval.

The coordinate of point T on the number line is: 46.5

Given that:

$A =5$

$B = 50$

The coordinate of X at the midpoint is:

$X = \frac{B + A}{2}$

So, we have:

$X = \frac{50+5}{2}$

$X = \frac{55}{2}$

$X = 27.5$

Point T is at 2/3 from X to B.

The coordinate of T is calculated using:

$T = X + \frac 23 (B - X + 1)$

So, we have:

$T = 27.5 + \frac 23 (55 - 27.5 + 1)$

$T = 27.5 + \frac 23 (28.5)$

$T = 27.5 + 19$

$T = 46.5$

<em>Hence, T is located at 46.5</em>

Jodie Meeks's Free Throws During the 2015-16 NBA season, Jodie Meeks of the Detroit Pistons had a free throw shooting percentage

Damm [24]

Answer:

0.8973

Step-by-step explanation:

Relevant data provided in the question as per the question below:

Free throw shooting percentage = 0.906

Free throws = 6

At least = 5

Based on the above information, the probability is

Let us assume the X signifies the number of free throws

So, Then X ≈ Bin (n = 6, p = 0.906)

$P = (X = x) = $\sum\limits_{x}^6 (0.906)^x (1 - 0.906)^{6-x}, x = 0,1,2,3,.., 6$

Now

The Required probability = P(X ≥ 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)

$= $\sum\limits_{5}^6 (0.906)^5 (1 - 0.906)^{6-5} + $\sum\limits_{6}^6 (0.906)^6 (1 - 0.906)^{6-6}$

= 0.8973

Please help me out :)

Alex17521 [72]

79-y=2y+22

Add y on both sides

79=3y+22

Subtract 22 from both sides

57=3y

Divide by 3 on both sides

19=y
