Answer: 1/2

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em> When subtracting like fractions, subtract the <em>numerators</em>, and keep the denominator the same.

So here, we subtract the numerators, 5 - 3 to get 2 and keep our denominator of 4. So 5/4 - 3/4 is 2/4.

Notice however that 2/4 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 2 and 4 which is 2. So if we divide the numerator and the denominator by 2, we get the equivalent fraction 1/2.

So 5/4 - 3/4 is 1/2 which is in lowest terms.

A​ university's administrator proposes to do an analysis of the proportion of graduates who have not found employment in their m
stepan [7]

Answer: 400

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we see that population proportion (p) = 0.15

Margin of error (m) = 5%

Confidence level = 99%

Level of significance = 100- confidence level = 1%.

The population standard deviation (s) for this data set is

√p(1-p) = √ 0.15 × (1 - 0.15)

√ 0.15 × 0.85 = 0. 1275

Margin of error = critical value × population standard deviation / √n

The critical value (c) for Constructing a 99 % confidence interval for population mean is = 2.58

m = c× √p'(1-p') /√n

We want to make n subject of the formulae, we have that

m = c√p'(1-p') /√n

m×√n = c × √p'(1-p')

√n = c × √p'(1-p') / m

n = c² × {√p'(1-p')}² / m

n = 2.58² × 0.1275/ 0.05²

n = 6.6564 × 0.01625625 / 0.0025

n = 339.47 ~ 400

Answer:

A. The area of a rectangle is equal to all the areas of the small rectangles. The dimensions of the small rectangles are 2a, 3a, and 4a. If you add those areas up, 2a+3a+4a equals the area of the large rectangle.

B. The area of a rectangle equals the width and height. The height of the large rectangle is already shown in the picture, a. The width is seperated into three portions, 2, 3, and 4. To find the total width, add 2+3+4. Now, multiply the width by the height to calculate the area. (2+3+4)a
