Answer:

In math, equivalent fractions can be defined as fractions with different numerators and denominators that represent the same value or proportion of the whole.

Step-by-step explanation:

The University of Washington claims that it graduates 85% of its basketball players. An NCAA investigation about the graduation

Nonamiya [84]

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of events

The given parameters are:

Sample size: n = 20
Proportion: p = 85%

<h3>(a) What is the probability that 11 out of the 20 would graduate? </h3>

Using the binomial probability formula, we have:

$P(X = x) = ^nC_x p^x(1 - p)^{n -x}$

So, the equation becomes

$P(x = 11) = ^{20}C_{11} \times (85\%)^{11} \times (1 - 85\%)^{20 -11}$

This gives

$P(x = 11) = 167960 \times (0.85)^{11} \times 0.15^{9}$

$P(x = 11) = 0.0011$

Express as percentage

$P(x = 11) = 0.11\%$

Hence, the probability that 11 out of the 20 would graduate is 0.11%

<h3>(b) To what extent do you think the university’s claim is true?</h3>

The probability 0.11% is less than 50%.

Hence, the extent that the university’s claim is true is very low

<h3>(c) What is the probability that all 20 would graduate? </h3>

Using the binomial probability formula, we have:

$P(X = x) = ^nC_x p^x(1 - p)^{n -x}$

So, the equation becomes

$P(x = 20) = ^{20}C_{20} \times (85\%)^{20} \times (1 - 85\%)^{20 -20}$

This gives

$P(x = 20) = 1 \times (0.85)^{20} \times (0.15\%)^0$

$P(x = 20) = 0.0388$

Express as percentage

$P(x = 20) = 3.88\%$

Hence, the probability that all 20 would graduate is 3.88%

<h3>(d) The mean and the standard deviation</h3>

The mean is calculated as:

$\mu = np$

So, we have:

$\mu = 20 \times 85\%$

$\mu = 17$

The standard deviation is calculated as:

$\sigma = np(1 - p)$

So, we have:

$\sigma = 20 \times 85\% \times (1 - 85\%)$

$\sigma = 20 \times 0.85 \times 0.15$

$\sigma = 2.55$

Hence, the mean and the standard deviation are 17 and 2.55, respectively.

What are the solution(s) to the quadratic equation 9x^2=4?

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

x = 2/3 or x = -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

9 x^2 = 4

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides by 9:

x^2 = 4/9

Hint: | Eliminate the exponent on the left-hand side.

Take the square root of both sides:

Answer:x = 2/3 or x = -2/3

Fabric is sold by the yard and many fabrics are 48" wide (4feet). Designers calculate the square feet needed for a garment in or

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

How many yards of material does the designer need for the 6 skirts? = 12

How much will ALL the fabric cost? = $150.84

What is the cost of the fabric of ONE skirt? = $12.57

Step-by-step explanation:

How many yards of material does the designer need for the 6 skirts?

First, it says that the yard is 48" wide aka 4 feet. But since it's asking for a total of 6 skirts, you multiply the yard by the number of skirts. Let's try to multiply 48 with 6.

288

So it will be 288 yards of material but we need to multiply 4 with 6.

So as you can see, 24 is 12 times as many as 288.

If you multiply 24 with 12, you will get the result of 288.

So the answer is 12 yards of material.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How much will ALL the fabric cost?

First, it says that the cost of the fabric is $12.57 per yard.

So, since we got our answer as 12 for our first question, we gotta multiply $12.57 with 12.

12.57

150.84

So the answer is $150.84.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What is the cost of the fabric for ONE skirt?

First, again we check that it's $12.57 per yard.

So, if it's for only one skirt, it will be $12.57.

It says that the fabric cost $12.57 and for one skirt.
