5/10 - 3/12= as a mixed number fraction

Mathematics
1 answer:
wariber [46]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

It's 1/4, in its simplest form

It cannot be a mixed number

EXPLANATION:

You're welcome. You find the least common denominator for the two fractions, and that is 60.

Then multiply the numberator and denominator by the number that makes the denominator common. For instance, for 5/10 we would use 6. 10 TIMES 6 IS 60, AND 5 TIMES 6 IS 30. Now its 30/60

We do the same for fraction 2:

12 TIMES 5 IS 60, AND 3 TIMES 5 IS 15. Now its 15/60

Your new question is 30/60 MINUS 15/60. = 15/60. 15/60 reduces to 1/4. I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND :)))

The Thomas family went for a Sunday drive. Before they left, Mr. Thomas noticed the gas tank was ¾ full. When they returned home
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

7.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The Thomas family went for a Sunday drive.

Before they left, Mr. Thomas noticed the gas tank was ¾ full.

When they returned home the gas tank was ⅓ full.

Total capacity of the gas tank = 18 gallons

<u>Question asked:</u>

How many gallons of gas did the car use on the drive?

<u>Solu</u>tion:

Before they left, quantity of gas in the tank = \frac{3}{4} \times18=\frac{54}{4} =13.5\ gallons

When they returned, quantity of gas in the tank = \frac{1}{3} \times18=\frac{18}{3} =6\ gallons

Quantity of gas used on the drive = 13.5 - 6 = 7.5 gallons

Therefore, 7.5 gallons of gas used on the drive by Thomas family.

How to find the inverse of a function
Studentka2010 [4]
Switch the x and the y and solve for y 
eg inverse of 2y= 3x+1
swith x and y
2x=3y+1
now solve for y
y =(2x-1)/3

Suppose that from the past experience a professor knows that the test score of a student taking his final examination is a rando
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

n=13.167^2 =173.369 and if we round up to the nearest integer we got n =174

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Let X the random variable who represents the test score of a student taking his final examination. We know from the problem that the distribution for the random variable X is given by:

X\sim N(\mu =73,\sigma =10.5)

From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

Solution to the problem

We want to find the value of n that satisfy this condition:

P(71.5 < \bar X

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z=\frac{\bar X- \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And we have this:

P(\frac{71.5-73}{\frac{10.5}{\sqrt{n}}} < Z

And we can express this like this:

P(-0.14286 \sqrt{n} < Z< 0.14286 \sqrt{n} )=0.94

And by properties of the normal distribution we can express this like this:

P(-0.14286 \sqrt{n} < Z< 0.14286 \sqrt{n} )=1-2P(Z

If we solve for P(Z we got:

P(Z

Now we can find a quantile on the normal standard distribution that accumulates 0.03 of the area on the left tail and this value is: z=-1.881

And using this we have this equality:

-1.881 = -0.14286 \sqrt{n}

If we solve for \sqrt{n} we got:

\sqrt{n} = \frac{-1.881}{-0.14286}=13.167

And then n=13.167^2 =173.369 and if we round up to the nearest integer we got n =174
