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!

Remember that there is 100 centimeters in a meter, and 1000 meters in a kilometer. If you multiply both values together (so you have a conversion of centimeters to kilometers) you get 100,000. Therefore, 100,000 centimeters makes a kilometer. Divide 320,000 by 100,000 and you get 3.2. Therefore, a centimeter would represent 3.2 kilometers.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (6, -3) and (-6, -5)?

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an equation for a straight line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

We can calculate the slope from the two given points, (6,-3) and (-6,-5). Slope is Rise/Run, where Rise is the change in y and Run is the change in x.

From the two given points, starting at (-6,-5) and going to (6,-3):

Rise = (-3 - (-5)) = +2

Run = (6 - (-6)) = 12

Rise/Run (slope) = 2/12 or 1/6

The equation becomes y = (1/6)x + b

We can find b by enterieng either of the two given points and solving for b. I'll pick (6,-3):

y = (1/6)x + b

-3 = (1/6)*(6) + b

-3 = 1 + b [Now you can see why I chose (6,-3)]

b = -4

The equation is y = (1/6)x - 4

Check this with a DESMOS graph (attached).

Answer:

0.08065

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a recent study,1 2006 randomly selected US adults (age 18 or older) were asked to give the number of people in the last six months with whom you discussed matters that are important to you.

If X is random variable then X has mean 2.2 and s = 1.4

n=2006

Std error of mean = $\frac{1.4}{\sqrt{2006} } \\=0.03126$
