Answer:

To find the unit rate, divide the numerator and denominator of the given rate by the denominator of the given rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

As an example, in this case, divide the numerator and denominator of 70/5 by 5, to get 14/1, or 14 students per class, which is the unit rate.

Answer:

Depending on whether you are solving a unit rate from a graph or without a graph, you can the unit rate by dividing the y coordinates by the x coordinates. If you are looking for a simpler answer, then you simply divide whatever independant value by its dependent counterpart. For example, if you are looking for the price per object, then you would divide the price by the object! Lets say for a bundle of 10 toilet rolls it costs $11.55. You would divide 11.55/10 and get a unit price of $1.15 cents rounded to the hundredth decimal. I hope this helps! :)

Answer:

$Cranberry:Apple:Orange = 7:5:8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Apple = 1/4$

$Orange = 2/5$

Required

Determine the ratio of Cranberry to Apple to Orange

First, we calculate the fraction of Cranberry using:

$Cranberry + Apple + Orange = 1$

Substitute values for Apple and Orange

$Cranberry + 1/4+ 2/5= 1$

Collect Like Terms

$Cranberry = 1- 1/4- 2/5$

Take LCM

$Cranberry = \frac{20 - 5 - 8}{20}$

$Cranberry = \frac{7}{20}$

The ratio is then represented as:

$Cranberry:Apple:Orange = 7/20:1/4:2/5$

Multiply through by 20

$Cranberry:Apple:Orange = 20(7/20:1/4:2/5)$

$Cranberry:Apple:Orange = 20*7/20:20*1/4:20*2/5$

$Cranberry:Apple:Orange = 7:5:8$

In a television series there is exactly one crime committed in every episode. It has been observed that the probability that the

Answer:

$P(x \le 3) = 0.2352$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p = 0.35$ --- male committing a crime in an episode

$n = 5$ -- Number of episodes

Required

Determine the probability of male committing a crime at least 3 times

This question illustrates binomial distribution and will be solved using;

$P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x$

So, the required probability is represented as:

$P(x \ge 3)$

And will be calculated using:

$P(x \ge 3) = P(x = 3) + P(x = 4) + P(x = 5)$

$P(x = 3) = ^5C_3 * (0.35)^3 * (1 - 0.35)^{5-3}$

$P(x = 3) = ^5C_3 * (0.35)^3 * (1 - 0.35)^2$

$P(x = 3) = 10 * (0.35)^3 * (0.65)^2$

$P(x = 3) = 0.1811$

$P(x = 4) = ^5C_4 * (0.35)^4 * (1 - 0.35)^{5-4}$

$P(x = 4) = 5 * (0.35)^4 * (1 - 0.35)^1$

$P(x = 4) = 5 * (0.35)^4 * (0.65)$

$P(x = 4) = 0.0488$

$P(x = 5) = ^5C_5 * (0.35)^5 * (1 - 0.35)^{5-5}$

$P(x = 5) = 1 * (0.35)^5 * (1 - 0.35)^0$

$P(x = 5) = 1 * (0.35)^5 * (0.65)^0$

$P(x = 5) = 1 * (0.35)^5 * 1$

$P(x = 5) = 0.0053$

So:

$P(x \ge 3) = P(x = 3) + P(x = 4) + P(x = 5)$

$P(x \le 3) = 0.1811 + 0.0488 + 0.0053$

$P(x \le 3) = 0.2352$
