Solutions
1) The first step is to find the Least Common Denominator (LCD) of <span>3/8,1/8,1/3,1/4
</span>⇒ Start Listing Multiples
List out all multiples of each denominator, and find the first common one.
8: <span><span>8,16,24</span>
</span>
8 : <span>8,16,24
</span>
3 : <span>3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24
</span>
4 : <span><span>4,8,12,16,20,24</span>
</span>
Therefore, the LCD is <span>24
</span>⇒ By Prime Factors
List all prime factors of each denominator, and find the union of these primes.
8 : <span>2,2,2</span>
8 : <span>2,2,2</span>
3 : 3
4 : <span><span>2,2</span>
</span>
Therefore, the LCD is <span>2×2×2×3=24
</span>Make the denominators the same as the LCD
<span><span><span>3×3 / </span><span>8×3 </span></span>+<span><span>1×3 / </span><span>8×3 </span></span>−<span><span>1×8 / </span><span>3×8 </span></span>+<span><span>1×6 / </span><span>4×6
</span></span></span>Simplify. Denominators are now the same
<span><span>9 / 24</span>+<span>3 / 24</span>−<span>8 / 24</span>+<span>6 / 24
</span></span>Join all the denominators
<span><span>9+3−8+6 / </span>24
</span>Simplify
<span>10 / 24
</span>Simplify fraction 10 / <span>24</span>
<span>5 / 12</span>
4/10 = 40% of throws made
40% of 24 = 9.6 which rounds up to 10
Complete question :
Mavis is interested in whether military dependency is related to gender in American Samoa. Here is data she collected about the population of American Samoa in 2010.
Millitary status _________ female ____ Male
In armed forces _________ 28 _______ 59
Millitary dependent ______ 928 ______ 781
Civilian _______________ 26393 ___27330
Answer:
Male = 0.4193
Female = 0.5087
Step-by-step explanation:
To obtain the marginal distribution of gender :
Total number of civilians (male + female)
(26393 + 27330) = 53,723
Male :
P(male) = number of male / total
P(male) = 26393 / 53,723 = 0.4912793
P(Female) = number of Female / total
P(Female) = 27330 / 53,723 = 0.5087206
Answer:
C.) 2×10²
Step-by-step explanation:
(Sun dia) / (Mars dia) = (1.4 x 10⁶ km) / (0.7 × 10⁴ km) = (1.4/0.7) × 10²
The ratio of diameters is about 2 × 10².
_____
The applicable rule of exponents is ...
(a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)
__
The diameter of Mars can be expressed several ways.
7000 = 7×1000 = 0.7×10,000 = 0.7×10⁴
