2/3 of a class is girls<br>a) What is the ratio girls to boys in the class?

a ribbion is 3 2/3 yards long. Mae needs to cut the ribbion into pieces that are 2/3 yard long.how much ribbion will be left aft

Lemur [1.5K]

To answer this question you need to divide to get the number of pieces and then multiply whats leff by 3 2/3.

Divide 3 2/3 by 2/3. There are a few ways to do this but I am going to turn 3 2/3 into an improper fraction and then divide.

So $3\frac{2}{3} = \frac{11}{3}$
Now divide
$\frac{\frac{11}{3}}{\frac{2}{3}}$
$\frac{11}{3} \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{11}{2} = 5\frac{1}{2} = 5.5$

We can see she can get 5.5 pieces at 2/3. So .5 is going to be left over so we ask our self, what is .5 of 3 2/3? We times .5 by 3 2/3 = 1.83 yards left. If you want it into a fraction, it would be $1\frac{83}{100}$ yards left

The total cost of the trip can be found by adding these components: Entrance fee per student: $5(29) Lunch costs: $4(29 + 6) Bus

N76 [4]

Given:

Entrance fee per student: $5(29)

Lunch costs: $4(29 + 6)

Bus fees: $25 + 8($2 + $3)

Total cost: 5(29) + 4(35) + 25 + 8(5)

To find:

The equivalent expressions of the total cost that use the properties of operations to simplify the math.

Solution:

We have,

Total cost = 5(29) + 4(35) + 25 + 8(5)

To simply this expression, we need to write 29 and 35 in the expand form or as the sum of their place values because it is easy to multiply a number with multiply of 10 and single digit.

Total cost = 5(20+9) + 4(30+5) + 25 + 40

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Define z_alpha to be a z-score with an area of alpha to the right. For Example: z_0.10 means P(Z > z_0.10) = 0.10. We would a

Reptile [31]

Answer:

a) P(-z_0.025 < Z < z_0.025)

For this case we want a quantile that accumulates 0.025 of the area on the tails of the normal standard distribution, and for this case we can calculate the z value with the following excel codes:

"=NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)"

And for this case the two values are : $z_{crit}= \pm 1.96$

b) P(-z_{\alpha/2} < Z < z_{\alpha/2})

For this case we want a quantile that accumulates $\alpha/2$ of the area on the tails of the normal standard distribution, and for this case we can calculate the z value with the following excel codes:

"=NORM.INV(alpha/2,0,1)"

c) For this case we want to find a value of z that satisfy:

P(Z > z_alpha) = 0.05.

And we can use the following excel code:

"=NORM.INV(0.95,0,1)"

And we got $z_{\alpha/2}=1.64$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Part a

P(-z_0.025 < Z < z_0.025)

For this case we want a quantile that accumulates 0.025 of the area on the tails of the normal standard distribution, and for this case we can calculate the z value with the following excel codes:

"=NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)"

And for this case the two values are : $z_{crit}= \pm 1.96$

Part b

P(-z_{\alpha/2} < Z < z_{\alpha/2})

For this case we want a quantile that accumulates $\alpha/2$ of the area on the tails of the normal standard distribution, and for this case we can calculate the z value with the following excel codes:

"=NORM.INV(alpha/2,0,1)"

Part c

For this case we want to find a value of z that satisfy:

P(Z > z_alpha) = 0.05.

And we can use the following excel code:

"=NORM.INV(0.95,0,1)"

And we got $z_{\alpha/2}=1.64$
