Step-by-step explanation: To write 60/80 that has a denominator less than 80, we can write reduce this fraction.

Notice that 60/80 can be reduced because 60 and 80 have a greatest common factor of 20. So we divide both 60 and 80 by 20 to get 3/4. Now, this is an equivalent fraction that has a denominator that's less than 80. Image is provided below.

How did the temperature change if: At first it increased by 25% and then decreased by 40%
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

24.6 % decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original temperature

Increase by 25%

x + .25x

1.25x

Decrease by 40%

The amount decreased is

(1.25x) *.40

.496x

Subtract that from 1.25x

1.25x - .496x

.754x

We need to find the percent decrease

1 - .754 = .246

24.6 % decrease

worty [1.4K]
Let, the first (smaller) number = x
Larger number = 8x
Then, 8x - x = 70
7x = 70
x = 70/7
x = 10
& 8(10) = 80

In short, Your Numbers would be, 10 & 80

Suppose that two teams play a series of games that ends when one of them has won ???? games. Also suppose that each game played
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

(a) E(X) = -2p² + 2p + 2; d²/dp² E(X) at p = 1/2 is less than 0

(b) 6p⁴ - 12p³ + 3p² + 3p + 3; d²/dp² E(X) at p = 1/2 is less than 0

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) when i = 2, the expected number of played games will be:

E(X) = 2[p² + (1-p)²] + 3[2p² (1-p) + 2p(1-p)²] = 2[p²+1-2p+p²] + 3[2p²-2p³+2p(1-2p+p²)] = 2[2p²-2p+1] + 3[2p² - 2p³+2p-4p²+2p³] =  4p²-4p+2-6p²+6p = -2p²+2p+2.

If p = 1/2, then:

d²/dp² E(X) = d/dp (-4p + 2) = -4 which is less than 0. Therefore, the E(X) is maximized.

(b) when i = 3;

E(X) = 3[p³ + (1-p)³] + 4[3p³(1-p) + 3p(1-p)³] + 5[6p³(1-p)² + 6p²(1-p)³]

Simplification and rearrangement lead to:

E(X) = 6p⁴-12p³+3p²+3p+3

if p = 1/2, then:

d²/dp² E(X) at p = 1/2 = d/dp (24p³-36p²+6p+3) = 72p²-72p+6 = 72(1/2)² - 72(1/2) +6 = 18 - 36 +8 = -10

Therefore, E(X) is maximized.

How many solutions exist for the given equation? 0.75(x 40) = 0.35(x 20) 0.35(x 20) zero one two infinitely many
zimovet [89]

Answer:

One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

0.75 (x + 40) = 0.35 (x + 20) + 0.35 (x + 20)

0.75x + 30 = 0.35x + 7 + 0.35x + 7

0.75x + 30 = 0.7x + 14

0.05x + 30 = 14

0.05x = -16

x = -320

Hope this helps!
