Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is;

17/6 <em><u>OR</u></em> 2 & 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

(-5+1)/6 - (-8+1)/2

First, simplify in parentheses!

-4/6 - -7/2

Next, change the symbol of 7/2 because two negatives make a positive!

-4/6 +7/2

Next, change the denominators so they both have the same

-4/6 + 7/2

× 3/3

-4/6 + 21/6

Simplify!

17/6

<u>OR</u>

2 & 5/6

Hope this helps

Answer:

<u>The approximate total weight of the grapefruits, using the clustering estimation technique is B. 35 ounces.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We notice that the weights of the grapefruits given are slightly down or above 7, then we will use <em>7 as our cluster</em> for the estimation, as follows:

Weights

7.47 ⇒ 7

7.23  ⇒ 7

6.46  ⇒ 7

7.48  ⇒ 7

6.81  ⇒ 7

The average monthly mortgage payment including principal and interest is $982 in the united states. if the standard deviation is
Aleonysh [2.5K]
The probability that the monthly payment is more than $1000 will be found as follows;
The payment is normally distributed, thus the z-score will be given by:
Z-score=(x-Mean)/(SD)
Mean=$982
SD=$180
Thus;
Z-score=(1000-982)/180=0.1
The probability associated with a z-score of 0.1 is 0.5398
Thus the probability that the monthly payment is more than $1000 will be:
P(x<1000)=1-0.5398=0.4602=46.02%
