41/2 + 2 3/8 can be written 4 4/8 + 2 3/8. We now have a common denominator.
Answer is 6 7/8.
Or convert everything to 1/8s

4 1/2 = 36/8 2 3/8 = 19/8 Both vulgar fractions
Add.

36/8 + 19/8 = 55/8 Convert by dividing by 8
Answer = 6 7/8

American households increasingly rely on cell phones as their exclusive telephone service. It is reported that 50.4% of American

OLga [1]

The variance of the binomial distribution of the number of households with landline service is 2.

<h3>What is the binomial probability distribution?</h3>

It is the probability of <u>exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability</u> of a success on each trial.

The variance of the distribution is given by:

V(X) = np(1 - p)

In this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

n = 8, p = 0.504.

Hence the variance is given by:

V(X) = 8 x 0.504 x 0.496 = 2.

an isosceles triangle has angle measures of 55, 55, and 70. the side across the 70 degree angle is 10 inches long. how long are

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The other sides of triangles are 8.72 in and 8.72 in

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle ABC. Please find the attachment for figure.

$\angle A=70^{\circ}$

$\angle B=\angle C=55^{\circ}$

Side BC=a = 10 in

Using sine law of trigonometry,

$\dfrac{a}{\sin A}=\dfrac{b}{\sin B}=\dfrac{c}{\sin C}$

Substitute the given value into formula.

$\dfrac{10}{\sin 70}=\dfrac{b}{\sin 55}=\dfrac{c}{\sin 55}$

$\dfrac{10}{\sin 70}=\dfrac{b}{\sin 55}$

Cross multiply and we get

$b=\sin 55\times \dfrac{10}{\sin 70}$

$b=8.72$ in

It is a isosceles triangle. Therefore, b=c=8.72 in

Hence, The other sides of triangles are 8.72 in and 8.72 in

Please help me and if I can I’ll help you but please I don’t get it!!

kobusy [5.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, let's set up our equation to solve for x (time to travel 13 miles).

$\frac{65}{1} =\frac{13}{x}$

We use this equation to find x. To solve, we divide 13 by 65 to get our answer.

13 ÷ 65 = 0.2

Our answer: 0.2 hours
