On Friday, 3/5 of the students wore blue shirts and 1/4 of the students wore white shirts. What fraction of the students wore ei
velikii [3]
Since 3/5 of the students wore blue shirts and 1/4 of the students wore white shirts, you need to find the Total of 3/5 and 1/4.
First, step find a common denominator for both fractions
EXAMPLE: 3/5+1/4=Total 3/5 becomes 12/20 and 1/4 becomes 5/20.
Second, notice that both fractions now have the same denominator, now you can find the sum of both fractions which is 17/20
Finally, you need to check if the fraction can be SIMPLIFIED if not then the fraction is already im simplest form.
THE ANSWER: 17/20 of students wore either a blue or white shirt on Friday

A ferry will safely accommodate 82 tons of passenger cars. Assume that the meanweight of a passenger car is 2 tons with standard
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The probability that the maximum safe-weight will be exceeded is <u>0.0455 or 4.55%</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Maximum safe-weight of 37 cars = 82 tons

∴ Maximum safe-weight of 1 car (x) = 82 ÷ 37 = 2.22 tons (Unitary method)

Mean weight of 1 car (μ) = 2 tons

Standard deviation of 37 cars = 0.8 tons

So, standard deviation of 1 car is given as:

\sigma=\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{37}}=0.13

Probability that maximum safe-weight is exceeded, P(x > 2.22) = ?

The sample is normally distributed (Assume)

Now, let us determine the z-score of the mean weight.

The z-score is given as:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{2.22-2}{0.13}\\\\z=\frac{0.22}{0.13}=1.69

Now, finding P(x > 2.22) is same as finding P(z > 1.69).

From the z-score table of normal distribution curve, the value of area under the curve for z < 1.69 is 0.9545.

But we need the area under the curve for z > 1.69.

So, we subtract from the total area. Total area is 1 or 100%.

So, P(z > 1.69) = 1 - P(z < 1.69)

P(z>1.69)=1-0.9545=0.0455\ or\ 4.55\%

Therefore, the probability that the maximum safe-weight will be exceeded is 0.0455 or 4.55%.

Find the value of x in the isosceles triangle shown below.
joja [24]
Answer: C. 10

Explanation:

Take half right triangle from the isosceles triangle:

We get side lengths:

12/2 = 6, 8, and x

And use Pythagorean’s theorem to find x:

6^2 + 8^2 = x^2
36 + 64 = x^2
100 = x^2
10 = x

Solve the equation 13-2x=-7
patriot [66]
Subtract 13 from both sides.

-13
-7 = -20

-2x = -20

Divide by 2 on both sides.
Remember: Negative divided by a negative makes a positive.

-2/-2 = 1
-20/-2 = 10

Your answer:
x = 10
