Answer:

Rose has read more pages

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Alexa has read \frac{3}{8} of the book

Rose has read \frac{3}{6} of the book

Simplify the expression and then compare

Multiply \frac{3}{8} by \frac{3}{3}

\frac{3}{8}*\frac{3}{3}=\frac{9}{24}

Multiply \frac{3}{6} by \frac{4}{4}

\frac{3}{6}*\frac{4}{4}=\frac{12}{24}

Compare the fractions

\frac{12}{24} > \frac{9}{24}

therefore

Rose has read more pages

Rose has read more because 3/6 of a book is more then 3/8 of a book in Alexa's book the chapters will be shorter than the chapters in Rose's book.

Consider random samples of size 80 drawn from population A with proportion 0.48 and random samples of size 66 drawn from populat
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Standard error = 0.070

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for the standard error of the distribution of differences in sample proportions is;

σ_(A - B) = √((p_a^(1 - p_a^)/n_a) + (p_b^(1 - p_b^)/n_b))

We are given;

p_a^ = 0.48

n_a = 80

p_b^ = 0.13

n_b = 66

Thus;

σ_(A - B) = √((0.48(1 - 0.48)/80) + (0.14(1 - 0.13)/66))

σ_(A - B) = √0.00496545455

σ_(A - B) = 0.070

What are the steps for adding and subtracting mixed numbers with unlike denominators
Valentin [98]
Well, there are different ways to do this if you are really familiar with fractions, but "officially" :P

1) convert mixed numbers to improper fractions.

rule:  a b/c = (ac+b)/c

2)  make all fractions have a common denominator...

a/b+c/d

(a/b)(d/d)+(c/d)(b/b)

(ad/bd)+(cb/bd)

3)

The simplify your final answer with greatest common denominator or convert back to mixed number if needed...

An airplane pilot over the Pacific sights an atoll at an angle of depression of 7 degrees. At this time, the horizontal distance
svlad2 [7]
It would be helpful if a figure is drawn as you can see clearly the situation of the problem. We would see that a right triangle is made where the angle between the elevation of the airplane with respect to the ground is 7 degrees and the horizontal distance is the base of the triangle. We use trigonemetric functions.
