Answer: Mrs. Williams can make 20 fourths from 5 pieces of construction paper.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that Mrs. Williams is dividing construction paper into fourths and there are 5 pieces of construction paper.

Then, in order to calculate how many fourths Mrs. Williams can make from these pieces of construction paper, you need to divide 5 pieces by \frac{1}{4}.

Follow these steps:

1. Identify the reciprocal of \frac{1}{4}. This is 4.

2. Multiply 5 pieces by the reciprocal of \frac{1}{4}:

(5)(4)=20

Therefore, Mrs. Williams can make 20 fourths from 5 pieces of construction paper.

The Copy Shop has made 20 copies of a document for you. Since the defective rate is 0.1, you think there may be some defective c
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Binomial

There is a 34.87% probability that you will encounter neither of the defective copies among the 10 you examine.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each copy of the document, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. This means that we can solve this problem using the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution:

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem

Of the 20 copies, 2 are defective, so p = \frac{2}{20} = 0.1.

What is the probability that you will encounter neither of the defective copies among the 10 you examine?

This is P(X = 0) when n = 10.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{10} = 0.3487

There is a 34.87% probability that you will encounter neither of the defective copies among the 10 you examine.

Which graph best represents the download speed of a large file
stellarik [79]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is incomplete. However, there are mainly four types of graphical representations in mathematics; line graph, bar graph (and histogram), pie chart and cartesian graph. The most suitable representation for fluctuating data sets of the same variables on each of the y and x-axis is the line graph. Since download speed will fluctuate during the course of a download, the correct type of graph to be used here will be the line graph. And the exact type of line graph that will be used here is a simple line graph. A simple line graph is a type of line graph in which one line is drawn on the graph. A simple line graph is usually used to represent two variables (in this case data downloaded per time).
