To solve this, it is easiest to set up a proportion, letting x represent the number that we don't know.
2/10 = x/5
Now, we can use cross products to simplify this proportion. Cross products sets the products of the numerator and denominator of separate fractions equal to one another. It results in the equation:
(5)(2) = (10)(x)
Let's multiply out these numbers to further simplify the equation.
10 = 10x
Finally, we have to divide both sides by 10, to get our variable x alone
x = 1
Therefore, 2 tenths is equal to 1 fifth.
Answer:
1. 0.1635
2. 0.0026
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the probability in the following cases are as follows:
1.
Given that
Mean = 25 minutes
ANd, the standard deviation is 6.1 minutes
So here the z score would be
= (31 - 25) ÷(6.1)
= 0.98
Now the probability is
= P(Z>0.98)
= 0.1635
2. the z score would be
= (8 - 25) ÷(6.1)
= -2.79
Now the probability is
= P(Z<-2.79)
= 0.0026
