What is the value of (3/10)3

Elenna [48]

Answer:

$\frac{9}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, one is asked to multiply a fraction by a whole number, first model the question.

$\frac{3}{10}(3)$

In a situation like this, one multiplies the whole number by the numerator (number) over the fraction.

$\frac{3*3}{10}$

Simplify,

$\frac{9}{10}$

A common error that people make is that they will multiply both the numerator and denominator by the whole number, this is the same as multiplying the answer by (1), thus it is incorrect.

To find the area of a triangle, you can use the expression b times h divided by 2, where b is the base of the triangle and h is

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

16 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle:

A = 1/2bh

If base and height are known as:

b = 8 units and h = 4 units

Then the area is:

A = 1/2*8*4 = 16 sq. units

At 107°F, a certain insect chirps at a rate of 92 times per minute, and at 113°F, they chirp 116 times per minute. Write an equa

dsp73

Answer:

The equation in slope-intercept form that represents the situation is y=0.25*x + 84 where y represents the temperature in ° F and x the number of chirps per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear equation can be expressed in the form y=m*x + b. In this equation, x and y are coordinates of a point, m is the slope and b is the y coordinate of the y-intercept. Since this equation describes a line in terms of its slope and its y-intercept, this equation is said to be in its slope-intercept form.

When there are two points of a line (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope is determined by the quotient between the difference of the ordinate of these two points and the difference of the abscissa of the same points. This is:

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

Having a point on the line, you can substitute the values of m, x and y in the equation y = mx + b and thus find b.

In this case:

(x1, y1): (92, 107)
(x2, y2): (116, 113)

So:

$m=\frac{113-107}{116-92}$

m= 0.25

substituting the values of m, x1 and y1 in the equation y = mx + b you have:

107= 0.25*92 + b

107 - 0.25*92= b

84=b

The equation in slope-intercept form that represents the situation is y=0.25*x + 84 where y represents the temperature in ° F and x the number of chirps per minute.

A college-entrance exam is designed so that scores are normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100.

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The probability is 0.003

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the average $\mu$ is:

$\mu=500$

The standard deviation $\sigma$ is:

$\sigma=100$

The Z-score is:

$Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

We seek to find

$P(x800)$

For P(x>800) The Z-score is:

$Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$Z=\frac{800-500}{100}$

$Z=3$

The score of Z = 3 means that 800 is 3 standard deviations from the mean. Then by the rule of the 8 parts of the normal curve, the area that satisfies the conficion of 3 deviations from the mean has percentage of 0.15%

So

$P(x>800)=0.15\%$

For P(x<200) The Z-score is:

$Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$Z=\frac{200-500}{100}$

$Z=-3$

The score of Z = -3 means that 200 is 3 standard deviations from the mean. Then by the rule of the 8 parts of the normal curve, the area that satisfies the conficion of 3 deviations from the mean has percentage of 0.15%

So

$P(x$

Therefore

$P(x800)=P(x800)$

$P(x800)=0.0015 + 0.0015$

$P(x800)=0.003$
