Answer:

1 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 + 1/2

We can't directly add together because the denominator is not equal, so we do that.

The lowest common factor of the denominator is 10.

3 × 2 / 5 × 2 + 1 × 5 / 2 × 5

6/10 + 5/10

Now that they are equal, add them together (only the numerator will be added and denominator will not change).

6/10 + 5/10 = 11/10

As you can see, the numerator exceeds the denominator by 1 so you make 1 whole number and leave 1 as the numerator. This is a mixed fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{3}{5}  +  \frac{1}{2}  \\  \\  =  \frac{3 \times 2 + 1 \times 5}{5 \times 2}  \\  \\  =  \frac{6 + 5}{10}  \\  \\  =  \frac{11}{10}  \\  \\  = 1 \frac{1}{10}

Suppose that the current measurements in a strip of wire are assumed to follow a normal distribution with a mean of 10 millimete
KiRa [710]

Answer: the probability that a measurement exceeds 13 milliamperes is 0.067

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that the current measurements in a strip of wire are assumed to follow a normal distribution, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = current measurements in a strip.

µ = mean current

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 10

σ = 2

We want to find the probability that a measurement exceeds 13 milliamperes. It is expressed as

P(x > 13) = 1 - P(x ≤ 13)

For x = 13,

z = (13 - 10)/2 = 1.5

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.933

P(x > 13) = 1 - 0.933 = 0.067

One month before the election, a poll of 630 randomly selected voters showed 54% planning to vote for a certain candidate. a wee
VikaD [51]

54% of 630 = 0.54 * 630 or approximately <u>340</u> of the 630 were planning to vote for the candidate.

51% of 1010 = 0.51 * 1010 or approximately <u>515</u> of the 1010 were planning to vote for the candidate.

This means that the voter support for this candidate increased.
