Option B

5 hundredths is not the way to express 0.50

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Three of the choices are ways to express 0.50

To find: wrong option

Let us first write 0.50 in different ways

<h3><em><u>To convert a Decimal to a Fraction follow these steps: </u></em></h3>

Step 1: Write down the decimal divided by 1, like this: decimal 1.

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. ...

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the fraction.

\rightarrow 0.50 = \frac{0.50 \times 100}{100} = \frac{50}{100}

\frac{50}{100} means 50 hundredths

<h3>Therefore option D is correct</h3>

On simplifying \frac{50}{100} we can write,

\rightarrow \frac{50}{100} = \frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{2}

\frac{1}{2} means one half

<h3>Therefore option A (one half) is correct</h3>

Similarly, \frac{5}{10} means 5 tenths

<h3>Therefore Option C is also correct</h3>

Thus the wrong option is B

<em><u>Justification:</u></em>

5 hundredths can be written as:

\frac{5}{100} = 0.05

Therefore option B is wrong

Solve for n.<br><br> n + 1 = 4(n – 8)
kolezko [41]
N + 1 = 4(n – 8)
Use distributive property for this part: 4(n – 8) ----> 4n - 32

n + 1 = 4n - 32

Get the variable on one side: 

n + 1 = 4n - 32
-n         -n

1= 3n - 32

Get the variable on its own:

1= 3n - 32 
+32       +32

33 = 3n

Divide by 3 on both sides: 

33/3 = 3n/3

n = 11

Maria will take two books with her on a trip. Suppose that the probability that she will like book 1 is .6, the probabilitythats
morpeh [17]

Answer:

0.25 is the required probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Probability that like book 1 = 0.6

P(1) = 0.6

Probability that like book 2 = 0.5

P(2) = 0.5

Probability that Maria likes both the books = 0.4

P(1\cap 2) = 0.4

We have to find the conditional probability that she will like book 2 given that she did not like book 1.

Thus, we have to evaluate:

P(2|1') = \dfrac{P(2\cap 1')}{P(1')} = \dfrac{P(2)-P(1\cap 2)}{1-P(1)}\\\\P(2|1') =\dfrac{0.5-0.4}{1-0.6} = 0.25

0.25 is the conditional probability that Maria will like book 2 given that she did not like book 1.
