Write in decimal form:4 x 100 +2 x 10+4 X 1 +7 (1/10) +7 x (1/100) +0 x (1/1000)

Helga [31]

This number is written in extended form. Each multiplication determines the place the digit is in the number you have to determine.

4*100 → This indicates that the first digit of the number is in the place of the "hundreds", if you solve the multiplication the result is 400

2*10 → This multiplication indicates that the second digit of the number is in the place of the "tens", the result of the multiplication is 20

4*1 → This multiplication indicartes that the third digit of the number represents the "units", te result of the multiplication is 4

After the units you have to put the decimal point and all digits below it will be decimal values.

7*(1/10) → The first digit after the decimal point is in the "tenths" place, you can write it as 0.7

7*(1/100) → This indicates that this digit is in the second place after the decimal dot, in the "hundredths" place, you can write it as 0.07

0*(1/1000)→ The multiplication indicates that the digit is in the third place after the decimal dot, in the "thousands" place, you can write it as 0.000

To write the number in decimal form you have to put each digit in their given order, or add the result of each multiplicatin toghether:

400+20+4+0.7+0.07+0.000

student randomly receive 1 of 4 versions(A, B, C, D) of a math test. What is the probability that at least 3 of the 5 student te

alexdok [17]

Answer:

1.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the students receive different versions of the math namely A, B, C and D.

So, the probability that a student receives version A = $\frac{1}{4}$ .

Thus, the probability that the student does not receive version A = $1-\frac{1}{4}$ = $\frac{3}{4}$ .

So, the possibilities that at-least 3 out of 5 students receive version A are,

1) 3 receives version A and 2 does not receive version A

2) 4 receives version A and 1 does not receive version A

3) All 5 students receive version A

Then the probability that at-least 3 out of 5 students receive version A is given by,

$\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}$ + $\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}$ + $\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}$

= $(\frac{1}{4})^3\times (\frac{3}{4})^2+(\frac{1}{4})^4\times (\frac{3}{4})+(\frac{1}{4})^5$

= $(\frac{1}{4})^3\times (\frac{3}{4})[\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+(\frac{1}{4})^2]$

= $(\frac{3}{4^4})[1+\frac{1}{16}]$

= $(\frac{3}{256})[\frac{17}{16}]$

= 0.01171875 × 1.0625

= 0.01245

Thus, the probability that at least 3 out of 5 students receive version A is 0.0124

So, in percent the probability is 0.0124 × 100 = 1.24%

To the nearest tenth, the required probability is 1.2%.

Janet’s car insurance payment decreases by $20 each year. Which expressions represent the total change in her payment,in dollars

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

C. 5•(-20)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the insurance payment for the car follows a certain pattern that can be represented through an expression. The payment is decreasing by $20 every year. As we don't know the total payment amount per period, so we cannot calculate how much is paid per period/year for insurance but we can calculate the rate at which this payment is decreasing.

Change in payment = t * (-20)

The above expressions can be used to calculate the amount of change in payment i payment is decreasing by a constant $20 every year, after t years.

So, if we want to calculate the change in payment after say 5 years, we can replace t with 5 in the equation and calculate the change,

Change in payment = 5 * (-20)

Change in payment = - $100

Solve the following equation algebraically<br>4x^2 = 100

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

x = ±5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2 = 100

Divide each side by 4

4/4x^2 = 100/4

x^2 = 25

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(25)

x = ±5
