2.8 = 2 + 0.8
*let's analyze the decimal 0.8 as a fraction
0.8 = 8/10
*but if we divide the numerator and denominator by the same common factor of 2, we find that the fraction can be reduced to:
(8/2)/(10/2) = (4)/(5) = 4/5
*now evaluating the whole value of 2 (from the 2.8), we know there are a total of (5) - fifths in order to make a whole, so for 2 whole, we require:
2*(5/5) = (2*5)/5 = 10/5
*Now we add the fractions together:
2 = 10/5
0.8 = 4/5
10/5 + 4/5
*add numerators only, the denominator stays as a 5
(10 + 4)/5 = 14/5
*there are no common factors between 14 & 5 (other than 1, but that won't help reduce the fraction any), so the fraction is in it's simplest form:
answer is: 14/5
Steps:
1. Change 1/11 to 2/22 by multiplying by 2
2. 9/22 + 2/22
3. 11/22
Then, to simplify it you divide by 11
4. Your answer is
1/2
Answer:
The appropriate probability model for X is a Binomial distribution,
X 
Bin (<em>n</em> = 5, <em>p</em> = 1/33).
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of American births resulting in a defect.
The proportion of American births that result in a birth defect is approximately <em>p</em> = 1/33.
A random sample of <em>n</em> = 5 American births are selected.
It is assumed that the births are independent, i.e. a birth can be defective or not is independent of the other births.
In this experiment the success is defined as a defective birth.
The random variable <em>X</em> satisfies all criteria of a Binomial distribution.
The criteria are:
- Number of observations is constant
- Independent trials
- Each trial has only two outcomes: Success and Failure
- Same probability of success for each trial
Thus, the appropriate probability model for X is a Binomial distribution, Bin (<em>n</em> = 5, <em>p</em> = 1/33).
Answer:
375 gallons in 25 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
first decide how many gallons in one minute
300/20 = 15 gallons in one minute
next multiply 15 x 25 minutes. You get 375 gallons in 25 minutes
Answer:
Center: (2, -11)
Radius: 10
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 2)² + (y + 11)² = 100
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
-------------------------------
x - 2 = 0
+2 +2
x = 2
------------
y + 11 = 0
-11 -11
y = -11
------------------------------
r² = 100
r = √100
r = 10
----------------------------
Center: (h, k)
Radius: r
-------------------------------
Center: (2, -11)
Radius: 10
I hope this helps!
