If this is not a typo, and you mean 15.16 as in 15 and 16 hundredths, we can express this into a mixed number.
Mixed numbers are a whole number with the remainder of that number as a fraction.
For example, 1.25 as a decimal = 1 1/4 as a mixed number.
Since we already have our whole number, 15, we need to know what 16 hundredths is simplified as a fraction.
Currently, our mixed number is 15 16/100.
To simplify this, we need to find a common factor that 16 and 100 share.
Since they are both even numbers, let's divide by 2.
16/2 = 8
100/2 = 50.
Our new mixed number is 15 8/50.
Currently our fraction is still even, so divide by 2 again.
8/2 = 4
50/2 = 25
Your new mixed number is 15 4/25.
4 and 25 have no common factors, so the fraction is simplified.
Your answer is:
15.16 is 15 4/25 as a mixed number.
I hope this helps!

Find the slope of the line that goes through the given points (8,5) (6,7)

vazorg [7]

To find the slope of a line that goes through given points with known coordinates, you divide the subtraction of the y of the second point minus the y of the first point, by the subtraction of the x of the second point minus the x of the first point:
m = (yB-yA) / (xB-xA)

Let A(8,5) and B(6,7).
With yB = 7; yA = 5; xB = 6; xA = 8
m = (7-5) / (6-8)
m = 2/-2
m = -1

So the slope of the line that goes through the given points (8,5) and (6,7) is m = -1.

I've added a pic of the line with both points under the answer.

Hope this Helps! :)

At a raffle, 1500 tickets are sold at $2 each. There are four prizes given for $500, $250, $150, and $75. You buy one ticket. Us

Answer:

The expected value of every ticket is a loss of $ 1.35

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:

Number of tickets sold at the raffle = 1,500

Price of each ticket = $ 2

Total prizes = 1 * $ 500 + 1 * $ 250 + 1 * $ 150 + 1 * $ 75

2. Use a probability distribution table to calculate the expected value of your gain. Your expected value is_____ ?

Let's answer the question using a probability distribution for the gains, this way:

Probability of 1st prize of $ 498 (500 - ticket) = 1/1,500
Probability of 2nd prize of $ 248 (250 - ticket) = 1/1,500
Probability of 3rd prize of $ 148 (150 - ticket) = 1/1,500
Probability of 4th prize of $ 73 (75 - ticket) = 1/1,500
Probability of losing $ 2 (ticket) = 1,496/1,500

Now, we calculate the mean for all the tickets (winners and non-winners), this way:

Expected value = [(1,496 * -2) + (1 * 498) + (1 * 248) + ( 1 * 148) + ( 1 * 73)]/1,500

Expected value = [- 2,992 +498 + 248 + 148 + 73)/1,500

Expected value = -2,025/1,500 = - 1,35

The expected value of every ticket is a loss of $ 1.35
