Answer:

Fraction of the original board left = \frac{2}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the board is = l feet

Marty saws off \frac{1}{5} of a wooden board.

Length of the board left = l - (\frac{1}{5})l

                                        = (\frac{4}{5})l feet

He saws off \frac{3}{4}th of the remaining board,

Board left = (\frac{4}{5})l-[(\frac{4}{5})l\times (\frac{3}{4})]

                = \frac{4}{5}l-\frac{3}{5}l

                = \frac{1}{5}l feet

He finally saws off \frac{1}{3}rd of the remaining board.

Board left = \frac{1}{5}l-[\frac{1}{5}\times \frac{1}{3}]l

                = (\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{15})l

                = \frac{2}{15}l feet

Fraction of the original board left = \frac{\frac{2}{15}l}{l}

                                                       = \frac{2}{15}

Can one angle of a parallelogram be equal to 40° and another one 50°? Justify your reasoning.
Dahasolnce [82]
Short answer: No! <<=====
If the two are one after another, then they are not supplementary, which a parallelogram requires.

If they are in opposite corners, they must be equal. That's another property of parallelograms.

On a multiple choice test with 15 ​questions, each question has four possible​ answers, one of which is correct. For students wh
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The variance for the number of correct answers is 2.8 questions

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of correct answers follows binomial distribution, in which we have:

  • n identical and independents events: the 15 questions
  • two possibles results that we call success and fail: The answer is correct and the answer is incorrect
  • probability p of success and 1-p of fail. Probability 1/4 of get the answer correct and probability of 3/4 of get the answer incorrect. This probabilities are calculated on that way because every question have 4 possible answers and one of which is correct.

So, the variance for a variable x that follows a Binomial distributions is:

V(x)=n*p*(1-p)

Then, the variance for the number of correct answers is:

V(x)=15*(1/4)*(3/4) = 2.8125 ≈ 2.8

Because n is equal to 15, p is equal to 1/4 and (1-p) is equal to 3/4.
