Determine the whether the sum of 7/8 and 4/9 is closest to 0,1,2,or 3
elena55 [62]
Whenever you add fractions it means you need a common denominator. The quickest way to find this number is to multiply the two denominators together (in this case 8 and 9).
So your new fractions are 63/72 and 32/72. When you add those you get 95/72.
Next simply divide the two numbers to get a decimal, so here we get: 1.31944...
So this number is closer to 1
Hope that helps!!

If you add Natalie’s age and Fred’s age, the result is 41. If you add Fred’s age to 3 times Natalie’s age, the result is 67. Fin
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Natalie is 13 years old, while Fred is 28 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that if you add Natalie’s age and Fred’s age, the result is 41, and if you add Fred’s age to 3 times Natalie’s age, the result is 67, to find how old Fred and Natalie are, the following calculation must be performed:

N + F = 41

3N + F = 67

(67 - 41) / 2 = N

26/2 = N

13 = N

13 x 3 + F = 67

39 + F = 67

F = 67 - 39

F = 28

28 + 13 = 41

Therefore, Natalie is 13 years old, while Fred is 28 years old.

If -1 is one of the zeroes of py 3x^3-5x^2-11x-3 find other zeroes
katrin2010 [14]

Given:

The function is:

y=3x^3-5x^2-11x-3

It is given that -1 is a zero of the given function.

To find:

The other zeroes of the given function.

Solution:

If c is a zero of a polynomial P(x), then (x-c) is a factor of the polynomial.

It is given that -1 is a zero of the given function. So, (x+1) is a factor of the given function.

We have,

y=3x^3-5x^2-11x-3

Split the middle terms in such a way so that we get (x+1) as a factor.

y=3x^3+3x^2-8x^2-8x-3x-3

y=3x^2(x+1)-8x(x+1)-3(x+1)

y=(x+1)(3x^2-8x-3)

Again splitting the middle term, we get

y=(x+1)(3x^2-9x+x-3)

y=(x+1)(3x(x-3)+1(x-3))

y=(x+1)(3x+1)(x-3)

For zeroes, y=0.

(x+1)(3x+1)(x-3)=0

(x+1)=0 and 3x+1=0 and x-3=0

x=-1 and x=-\dfrac{1}{3} and x=3

Therefore, the other two zeroes of the given function are -\dfrac{1}{3} and 3.

Plz help me! It’s math!
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The first one

Step-by-step explanation:

The number line is supposed to show the product of 2 and five, the arrow will start at 0 because 5 times 0 is 0 then it will go to 5 because 5 times 1 is 5, then another arrow will start at 5 and point at 10 because 5 times 2 is 10

The second option points backwards which would be if you were dividing 10 by 5

The third option starts at negative 10 so it shows -10 divided by -5

the last option starts at 0 and goes to -10 so it shows -5 multiplied by 2

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The confidence Interval = (0.329, 0.391)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for the Confidence Interval for proportion =

p ± z × √p(1 - p)/n

where

p = x/n

From the question

n = 900 people

x = 36% of 900 people

= 36/100 × 900

= 324

z = z score of 95% confidence Interval

z = 1.98

p = x/n

= 324/900

= 0.36

Confidence Interval = p ± z × √p(1 - p)/n

= 0.36 ± 1.96 × √0.36 (1 - 0.36)/900

= 0.36 ± 1.96 ×√0.36 (0.64)/900

= 0.36 ± 1.96 × √0.000256

= 0.36 ± 1.96 × 0.016

= 0.36 ± 0.03136

Confidence Interval = 0.36 ± 0.03136

= 0.36 - 0.03136

= 0.32864

Approximately to 3 decimal places = 0.329

= 0.36 + 0.03136

= 0.39136

Approximately to 3 decimal places = 0.391

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people who believe the governor broke campaign financing laws = (0.329, 0.391)
