Answer:

William was 0.5 points away from a perfect score.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the teacher didn't subtract 5 points, he would have 24.5 + 5 = 29.5 points.

30 - 29.5 = 0.5

William was 0.5 points away from a perfect score.

Put everything into a calculator to change to decimal form to make things easier:
27/5=5.4
5.36=5.36
5 3/5=5.6
33/6=5.5
So now in order to least to greatest it would be:
5.36, 27/5, 33/6, 5 3/5

Which shows the expression below simplified? 0.00048 - (3.4 × 10-5) A. 4.46 × 10-4 B. 3.39952 × 10-5 C. 4.46 × 10-5 D. 1.4 × 10-
MakcuM [25]

Option C

The simplified form of given expression is 4.46 \times 10^{-4}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to simplify the expression shown below

0.00048 - (3.4 \times 10^{-5})

Let us first convert 0.00048 to scientific notation

<em><u>Steps to follow:</u></em>

Move the decimal point in your number until there is only one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. The resulting decimal number is a.

Count how many places you moved the decimal point. This number is b.

If you moved the decimal to the left b is positive.

If you moved the decimal to the right b is negative.

If you did not need to move the decimal b = 0.

Write your scientific notation number as a x 10^b and read it as "a times 10 to the power of b."

Remove trailing 0's only if they were originally to the left of the decimal point.

0.00048 = 4.8 \times 10^{-4}

So the given expression becomes,

\rightarrow 4.8 \times 10^{-4} - 3.4 \times 10^{-5}

Let us make the exponent of second term as -4

\rightarrow 4.8 \times 10^{-4} - 0.34 \times 10^{-4}

Take 10^{-4} as common term,

\rightarrow 10^{-4} (4.8 - 0.34)

\rightarrow 4.46 \times 10^{-4}

Thus option C is correct

5/4 to 3/8 as a percent change
Digiron [165]
Well, what's the diffrence from 5/4 to 3/8?

\bf \cfrac{5}{4}-\cfrac{3}{8}\qquad \stackrel{\textit{LCD is 8 clearly}}{\implies }\qquad \cfrac{10-3}{8}\implies \cfrac{7}{8}

so, if we take 5/4 to be the 100%, what is 7/8 off of it in percentage anyway?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}&#10;amount&\%\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;\frac{5}{4}&100\\\\&#10;\frac{7}{8}&x&#10;\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{5}{4}\quad }{\frac{7}{8}}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{5}{4}\cdot \cfrac{8}{7}=\cfrac{100}{x}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{40}{28}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{28\cdot 100}{40}

In one type of state lottery 5 distinct numbers are picked from 1,2,3,...,40 uniformly at random.
belka [17]

Answer: a) 1 / ⁴⁰C₅ b)  0.33

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The sample space consists of all numbers 1-40.

Since any of the number can be taken from the sample space  so each of five 5 distinct numbers we take has equal probability of occurring. So probability of each 5 numbers set we take will be equal to 1 / ⁴⁰C₅

b)

If we pick exactly 3 even number then that means other 2 will be odd.

So, we have sample space of 40 numbers out of which 20 are even and 20 are odd.

Now we have to pick 3 even out of 20 and 2 odd out of 20.

Probability = ²⁰C₃ * ²⁰C₂ / ⁴⁰C₅

Probability= 0.33
