Answer:

$\frac{1}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I think what it is trying to say is that it wants the solution to multiplying all of those. The (...) simply means that it wants you to continue that pattern in what you are supposed to be multiplying, but stop at $\frac{24}{25}$ .

That would mean you are technically supposed to be multiplying:

$\frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{3} \frac{3}{4} \frac{4}{5} \frac{5}{6} \frac{6}{7} \frac{7}{8} \frac{8}{9} \frac{9}{10} \frac{10}{11} \frac{11}{12} \frac{12}{13} \frac{13}{14} \frac{14}{15} \frac{15}{16} \frac{16}{17} \frac{17}{18} \frac{18}{19} \frac{19}{20} \frac{20}{21} \frac{21}{22} \frac{22}{23} \frac{23}{24} \frac{24}{25}$

That is a lot and unfortunately, none of the individual fractions can be simplified within that. The final answer would be able to be simplified, though.

Multiplying the first four shown: $\frac{1}{2}\frac{2}{3} \frac{3}{4} \frac{4}{5}$ you end up with $\frac{24}{120}$ . Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 24. Dividing top and bottom would simplify this to $\frac{1}{5}$ .

Now, let's take the next four.

$\frac{5}{6}\frac{6}{7} \frac{7}{8} \frac{8}{9}$ allows you to end up with $\frac{1680}{3024}$ . Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 336. You are left with $\frac{5}{9}$ .

Now, let's take the next four.

$\frac{9}{10}\frac{10}{11} \frac{11}{12} \frac{12}{13}$ . Multiplying these gives you $\frac{11880}{17160}$ . Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 1320. You are left with $\frac{9}{13}$ .

Now, let's take the next four.

$\frac{13}{14}\frac{14}{15} \frac{15}{16} \frac{16}{17}$ . Multiplying these gives you $\frac{43680}{57120}$ . Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 3360. You are left with $\frac{13}{17}$ .

*<em> Although I would continue to say let's take the next four, there appears to be a pattern in the simplification. The numerators we have gotten have all been four less than their denominators, and each numerator has been four more than the last. I cannot be certain, but we only have two sets of four left. If this pattern continues, the simplifications of each should be $\frac{17}{21}$ and $\frac{21}{25}$ . I will continue on for argument's sake, anyways.</em>

The next four are $\frac{17}{18}\frac{18}{19} \frac{19}{20} \frac{20}{21}$ . Multiplying these, you are left with $\frac{116280}{143640}$ . Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 6840. We are left with $\frac{17}{21}$ . This is the exact guess I had made when following the pattern, and so the next one is most likely going to be the other guess as well.

Our final answer will be $\frac{1}{5}\frac{5}{9} \frac{9}{13} \frac{13}{17}\frac{17}{21} \frac{21}{25}$ all multiplied together. We end up with $\frac{208845}{5221125}$ . Both the numerator (top) and denominator (bottom) are divisible by 208845.

Simplified, your final answer is: $\frac{1}{25}$ .

* <u>NOTE:</u> that another way to solve this would just be to multiply all numbers from 1-24 together and then 2-25, but you would end up with a very large number that would be just as time consuming to simplify. To get the GCF fast, I used a GCF calculator.

Maria es una estudiante de la seccion 7-9 que le gusta leer mucho. Actualmente lee un libro que tiene 288 paginas, silee 12 pagi

dmitriy555 [2]

Responder:

24 días

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado que:

Total de páginas = 288

Número de páginas leídas por día = 12

Número de días que se necesitarán para leer el libro completo:

Total de páginas / número de páginas leídas por día

288/12

= 24

Por lo tanto, a María le tomará 24 días leer el libro completo, si lee 12 páginas del libro por día.

My statistics book says there are 8 degrees of freedom for this data set. I don't understand how they got that number. # of Book

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

It's a bit unclear with the table this way, but I count fifteen points, fifteen lines of the table, each a pair of numbers.

That's 15 degrees of freedom in the data. When modeling, each parameter in the model uses up one degree of freedom, so you'd use a smaller number of degrees of freedom when calculating t statistics, etc.

I need help for these! (if you could show the steps it'll help alot:) )

PolarNik [594]

The attached picture is a summary of all the six transformations you'd do.

Any change outside the f(x) notation impacts y-values of points on the graph.

Any changes inside the f(x) notation impacts x-values of points on the graph.

The trick is that the inside changes are usually the opposite of what you'd expect to have happen.

7. y=f(x)+8

This is an outside change. You're adding 8 to all the y-values of points on the graph. This will shift your entire graph up 8 units.

8. y=f(x+6)

This is an inside change. Because it says "+6", you want to think, "Ah! That means I'll actually subtract 6 from the x-value of every point on the graph." This graph is shifted 6 units to the left.

9. y=-f(x)

Inside change, impacts y-values. Every y-value will be given the opposite signs. Negatives become positive and positives become negative. This will flip your graph over the x-axis.

10. y = f(-x) + 5

Give this one a shot on your own first in a comment and I'll let you know how you did.

11. y = - 3 f(x-3)

There are three things happening. A negative on the outside, multiplying by 3 on the outside, and subtracting 3 inside. What will each of those do individually? Take a shot on this one and let me know what you think.

12. y = 1/2 f( 1/2 x )

Again, three changes. Try this one and let me know what you think. Remember multiplying by 1/2 inside really means you'll do the opposite of multiplying by 1/2.
