0.6704 repeating as a fraction?

1 answer:

3 0

Suppose $x=0.67046704\ldots$ .

Then $10^4x=6704.67046704\ldots$ , and we have

$10^4x-x=9999x=6704$

which means

$x=\dfrac{6704}{9999}$

Do you tailgate the car in front of you? About 35% of all drivers will tailgate before passing, thinking they can make the car i

Vesna [10]

Answer:

(a) The histogram is shown below.

(b) E (X) = 4.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = r = a driver will tailgate the car in front of him before passing.

The probability that a driver will tailgate the car in front of him before passing is, P (X) = p = 0.35.

The sample selected is of size n = 12.

The random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 12 and p = 0.35.

The probability function of a binomial random variable is:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x}$

(a)

For X = 0 the probability is:

$P(X=0)={12\choose 0}(0.35)^{0}(1-0.35)^{12-0}=0.006$

For X = 1 the probability is:

$P(X=1)={12\choose 1}(0.35)^{1}(1-0.35)^{12-1}=0.037$

For X = 2 the probability is:

$P(X=2)={12\choose 2}(0.35)^{2}(1-0.35)^{12-2}=0.109$

Similarly the remaining probabilities will be computed.

The probability distribution table is shown below.

The histogram is also shown below.

(b)

The expected value of a Binomial distribution is:

$E(X)=np$

The expected number of vehicles out of 12 that will tailgate is:

$E(X)=np=12\times0.35=4.2$

Thus, the expected number of vehicles out of 12 that will tailgate is 4.2.

(c)

The standard deviation of a Binomial distribution is:

$SD(X)=np(1-p)$

The standard deviation of vehicles out of 12 that will tailgate is:

$SD(X)=np(1-p)=12\times0.35\times(1-0.35)=2.73\\$

Thus, the standard deviation of vehicles out of 12 that will tailgate is 2.73.

Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (–1, 4) with slope 2. A. y+1=−2(x−4) B. y+1=2(x−4) C. y−4=2(x+1) D.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

$y-4=2\,(x+1)$

which agrees with answer C in your list of possible answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the general point-slope form of a line of slope m and going through the point $(x_0, y_0)$ :

$y-y_0=m(x-x_0)$

which in our case, given the info on the slope (2) and the point (-1, 4) becomes:

$y-y_0=m\,(x-x_0)\\y-4=2\,(x-(-1))\\y-4=2\,(x+1)$

The equation y = \large 1\frac{1}{2}x represents the number of cups of dried fruit, y, needed to make x pounds of granola. Deter

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

$(1\frac{1}{2},1)$ - False

$(4,6)$ - True

$(18,12)$ -- False

$(0,0)$ -- True

$(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$ -- True

Step-by-step explanation:

The points are

$(1\frac{1}{2},1)$ , $(4,6)$ , $(18,12)$ , $(0,0)$ and $(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$ ---- missing from the question

Given

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$

Required

Determine if each of the points would be on $y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$

To do this, we simply substitute the value of x and of each point in $y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ .

(a) $(1\frac{1}{2},1)$

In this case;

$x = 1\frac{1}{2}$ and $y = 1$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 1\frac{1}{2}$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * \frac{3}{2}$

$y = \frac{9}{4}$

$y = 2\frac{1}{4}$

The point $(1\frac{1}{2},1)$ won't be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 1\frac{1}{2}$ is $y = 2\frac{1}{4}$

(b) $(4,6)$

In this case;

$x = 4$

$y = 6$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 4$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * 4$

$y = \frac{3* 4}{2}$

$y = \frac{12}{2}$

$y = 6$

The point $(4,6)$ would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 4$ is $y = 6$

(c) $(18,12)$

In this case:

$x = 18;y = 12$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 18$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * 18$

$y = \frac{3* 18}{2}$

$y = \frac{54}{2}$

$y = 27$

The point $(18,12)$ wouldn't be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 18$ is $y = 12$

(d) $(0,0)$

In this case;

$x =0; y = 0$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 0$

$y = 0$

The point $(0,0)$ would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 0$ is $y = 0$

(e) $(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$

In this case:

$x = 2\frac{1}{2}$ ; $y = 3\frac{3}{4}$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 2\frac{1}{2}$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * \frac{5}{2}$

$y = \frac{15}{4}$

$y = 3\frac{3}{4}$

The point $(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$ would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 2\frac{1}{2}$ is $y = 3\frac{3}{4}$
