8 0

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

First, in order to subtract these fractions, we need the denominators to be the same number.

4/8 x 2 = 8/16

1/2 x 8 = 8/16

8/16 - 8/16 = 0. The doctor does not need any Robitussin at all

What is the 399,713 rounded to the place value of the third underlined digit of 399
maksim [4K]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:

400,000.

Explanation:

The third digit in 399 is 9. To round to this place value, we inspect the digit behind it. If the digit is 5 or greater, we round up; if it is less than 5, we round down.

The digit behind 9 is 7. Since it is greater than 5, we round up. This would ordinarily put the number up 1; however, doing that makes the 9 a 10, which in turn makes the next number 10, and the next number 4. This gives us 400,000.

The annual interest rate on a 15-year
rewona [7]

Answer:

The amount of interest paid is $22,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need the number of $1 in $450,000

That would simply be $450,000/$1 = 450,000

5 cents is same as 5/100 = $0.05

so we have to multiply 450,000 by 0.05

we have this as;

450,000 * $0.05 = $22,500

Question 13 pts
oee [108]

Answer:

1. 68%

2. 50%

3. 15/100

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to use the empirical rule

1. % waiting between 15 and 25 minutes

From what we have in the question;

15 is 1 SD below the mean

25 is 1 SD above the mean

So practically, we want to calculate the percentage between;

1 SD below and above the mean

According to the empirical rule;

1 SD above the mean we have 34%

1 SD below, we have 34%

So between 1 SD below and above, we have

34 + 34 = 68%

2. Percentage above the mean

Mathematically, the percentage above the mean according to the empirical rule for the normal distribution is 50%

3. Probability that someone waits less than 5 minutes

Less than 5 minutes is 3 SD below the mean

That is 0.15% according to the empirical rule and the probability is 15/100

In a probability experiment, Karen flipped a coin 84 times. The coin landed on heads 36 times. What percentage of the coin flips
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

57.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a coin has only two sides, heads or tails. Therefore if of the 84 times, 36 times he fell in heads, the other times he fell in tails.

84 - 36 = 48 times fell in tails.

Therefore to calculate the percentage that fell in tails, it would be the ratio between the number of times it fell in tails and the total number of experiments:

48/84 = 0.571, and that is 57.1%

Which means that 57.1% of the times the coin was thrown fell into tails.
