Answer:

0.75 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

6/8 is equivalent to 3/4

3 divided by 4 is 0.75

Since 6/8 is equivalent then it is also 0.75

Also 6/8 turn to 3/4 when both the numerator and denominator is divided by 2.

6 divided by 2 is 3

8 divided by 2 is 4

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

⁶/₈ is equivalent to ³/₄.

<u>Question:</u>

How can you use this to help you write ⁶/₈ as a decimal?

<u>The Process:</u>

\frac{6}{8} is equivalent to \frac{3}{4}, because both the numerator and denominator are divided by two, that is,

\boxed{ \ \frac{6 \div 2}{8 \div 2} = \frac{3}{4} \ }

In the next step, we can use \frac{3}{4} to help us write \frac{6}{8} as a decimal. Both the numerator and denominator are multiplied by 25.

\boxed{ \ = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{25}{25} \ }

\boxed{ \ = \frac{75}{100} \ }

\boxed{\boxed{ \ 0.75 \ }}

If \frac{6}{8} is equivalent to \frac{3}{4} while \frac{3}{4} is equal to 0.75, then \boxed{\boxed{ \ \frac{6}{8} = 0.75 \ }}.

<u>Quick Steps:</u>

\boxed{ \ \frac{6}{8} \rightarrow \frac{6 \div 2}{8 \div 2} = \frac{3}{4} \ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{25}{25} = \boxed{\frac{75}{100} = 0.75} \ }

\boxed{ \ \frac{6}{8} = 0.75 \ }

Water is being drained at a constant rate from a tank.
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 gallons - 940 = 60 then divide by the time which gets us 60/10=6

Now we can use this answer to help find out the amount remaining in the tank.

5 minutes = 5x6=30; 1000-30= 970 gallons

20 minutes= 20x6=120; 1000-120= 880 gallons

30 minutes=30x6=180; 1000-180= 820 gallons

27 minutes=27x6=162; 1000-162= 838 gallons

X minutes = 1000-6x

Rate of flow is 6 gallons per minute.

Hope this helps!

The safety inspector in a large city wants to estimate the proportion of buildings in the city that are in violation of fire cod
storchak [24]

Answer:

Check Explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample will be a representative of the entire build us in the city.

For a sample size 35, 3 have fire code violations, hence, the proportion of houses with fire code violations = (3/35) = 0.0857 = 8.57 %

The uncertainty in the estimate is given in the form of standard error.

Standard error = √[(p(1-p)/n]

n = sample size = 35, p = 0.0857, 1 - p = 0.9143

Standard error of the sample = √(0.0857×0.9143/35) = 0.1616

In terms of the population, (0.1616/35) = 0.00462

Proportion of buildings with fire code violations = (8.57 ± 0.462) %

Carla wants to know how many students in her school enjoy watching reality TV shows. She asks all 22 students in her science cla
weeeeeb [17]
Statistic significance requires that your sample be representative of the population, but I'm struggling with this because if the class is an elective then the answer would be: <span>No, it is not a valid inference because she asked all 22 students in her science class instead of taking a sample of the students in her school.
BUT if the class is required, as most science classes are, then it WOULD be a random sample of the school. So the last option would be correct. 

My guess though is that the teacher is looking for answer B.
