Uncle Bill has planted fruits in the farm and 7/12 is watermelon.2/3 of the watermelon section is ruined from the storm.The rest

The fraction of his farm which isn’t ruined is 11/18

<h3>Fractions and proportion</h3>

Fractions are written as a ratio of two integers. The given question will be solved using the method of proportion.

If Uncle Bill has planted fruits in the farm and 7/12 is watermelon, and 2/3 of the watermelon section is ruined from the storm, the fraction ruined from the storm is;

Fraction ruined from the storm = 2/3* (7/12)

Simplify to its lowest term to have:

Fraction ruined from the storm = 7/18

Determine the fraction of the firm that is not ruined

Fraction not ruined = 1 - 7/18

Fraction not ruined = 11/18

Hence the fraction of his farm which isn’t ruined is 11/18 if uncle Bill has planted fruits in the farm and 7/12 is watermelon.

With or without tiles simplify and solve each equation below for x. record your work. a.3x-7=2

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Addition property of equality is adding the same number to both sides of an equation does not change the equation.

a+c=b+c

3x-7=2

add 7 both sides of an equation.

3x-7+7=2+7

simplify.

3x=9

divide by 3 both sides of an equation.

3x/3=9/3

simplify.

9/3=3

3*3=9

9/3=3

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Goranson and Hall (1980) explain that the probability of detecting a crack in an airplane wing is the product of p1, the probabi

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

a. The multiplication of these probabilities is justified because the inspections are isolated or don't have the same goal. For instance p1, would mean that not all the planes are checked, p2 that not all the parts in the plane are checked, and p3, that even if the the part where the crack could be inspected, people checking it could not notice it or it could be not identified easily.

b. As the events are independent and there are only two possible answers (detect the plane or not), a binomial distribution could be applied, therefore:

p=0.9*0.8*.5=36 (probability of detecting the crack)

n=3 (number of possibilities, in this case number of planes)

The probability in a binomial formula is given by

$P(X=x)=\frac{n!}{(n-x)!x!}*p^{x}*(1-p)^{n-x}$

Considering that the only possibility that is not being asked is the one of not detecting any crack which would mean x=0, then, we could find the probability as

$P(X\geq 1)$ =1- $P(X=0)$
