ars of commuting she has developed the following probability distribution for the number of red lights she stops at each day on her way to work:
0 1 2 3 4 5

.05 .25 .35 .15 .15 .05

Note that the standard deviation of the above probability distribution is = 1.26

Dan saved twice as much as Brett. Maria saved $60 more than Brett. If they saved $600 altogether, how much did Maria save?
givi [52]
Setting it up, we have Dan + Bret + Maria all saving 600.00
Dan = 2B
Bret = B
Maria = B+60

2B + B + B + 60 = 600
4B = 540
B = 135

Dan = 2(135) = 270
Brett = 135
Maria = 135 + 60 = 195

Can someone help me with my math homework?
zhenek [66]

See explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

6. The fraction can be written as;

\frac{x^2}{2y} /\frac{y^2}{4} \\\\\frac{x^2}{2y} *\frac{4}{y^2} \\\\

Divide 4 by 2

=\frac{2x^2}{y^3}

7.

The fraction can be written as;

\frac{b^2}{6} /\frac{b}{a}

introduce product sign as

\frac{b^2}{6} *\frac{a}{b} \\\\=b*a/6\\=\frac{ab}{6}

8.

The fraction can be written as;

\frac{x}{y} /\frac{yx}{2}

Introduce product sign

\frac{x}{y} *\frac{2}{yx} \\\\=\frac{2}{y^2}

9.

The fraction can be written as;

\frac{x}{y^2} /\frac{x}{y} \\\\\\=\frac{x}{y^2} *\frac{y}{x} \\\\\\=\frac{1}{y}

10.

The fraction is simplified to;

\frac{x}{3y} /\frac{9}{x} \\\\\\\frac{x}{3y} *\frac{x}{9} =\frac{x^2}{27y}

What is 54 percent as a fraction in simplest form
atroni [7]
54% is 54 out of 100.
There for the numerator is 54 and the denominator is 100.

\frac{54}{100}

Now, both the top and the bottom can be divided by 2. So:

\frac{54~divided~by~2}{100~divided~by~2} = \frac{27}{50}

\frac{27}{50} can't be simplified anymore, therefore, 27/50 is 54% as a fraction.
