What is 10/9 closer to 1, 1/2

Mathematics

Serga [27]3 years ago

Answer:

It is closer to 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, 10/9 is the same thing as 1 1/9.

Draw a number line:

                                  1/2                               1

--|------|------|------|-----|---|---|------|------|------|-----|-----

0/9  1/9   2/9  3/9  4/9  5/9  6/9  7/9  8/9  9/9

Halfway between 4/9 and 5/9 is the same as 1/2 and 9/9 is the same as 1.

You can see that 1/9 is way closer to 1/2 than 1.

So, 10/9 is closer to 1/2.

(There are other ways to solve this, but this way is easiest for me!)

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The correlation between exam score and amount of time spent on the exam is an example of a <u>negative correlation</u>.​

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided statement.

College professor reports that students who finish exams early tend to get better grades than students who hold on to exams until the last possible moment.

That means the student who finish the exam early will get the highest marks. One who finish after the first student will get second highest mark and the one who finish in the end will get the least marks.

Now consider time as first variable and marks as second variable.

That means as the first variable increase the second variable decreases.

According to the definition of Negative correlation: It is a relationship between two variables in which one variable increases as the other decreases, and vice versa.

Hence, the correct answer is negative correlation.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Lets assume that 1200 births are randomly selected and exactly 595 of the births are girls.

In percentage this is : \frac{595}{1200}\times100=49.58\%

This is approx 50%. We can say that almost random 50% are girls.

So, It is unlikely because the probability of this particular outcome is very​ small, considering all of the other possible outcomes.

Part B: It is not unusual because 595 is about the number of girls expected.
