and three-fourths hours. Wen tried to find the change in temperature per hour. Her work is shown below.
Negative 15 and one-half divided by 5 and three-fourths = negative StartFraction 31 over 2 EndFraction divided by StartFraction 23 over 4 EndFraction = negative StartFraction 31 over 2 EndFraction times StartFraction 23 over 4 EndFraction = Negative StartFraction 713 over 8 EndFraction

A. When she checked the answer by estimating, it did not make sense. What error did Wen make?
B. Wen incorrectly converted a mixed number to an improper fraction.
C. Wen added the numerators and denominators instead of multiplying.

22,647 inches into miles
nydimaria [60]

22,647 inches to m iles will give you 0.35743371 of a mile (this is a repeated decimal since it goes on forever with different numbers.) Using a calculator, 22646.9998656 inches would give 0.35743371 miles (round the inches to the whole number and you will still get the same answer.) Into hundredths, you get 0.36, but changing to tenths would give 0.4.

Hope this helped!

Jayden invested $22,000 in an account paying an interest rate of 2.5% compounded
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

12.9

Step-by-step explanation:

30400=

30400=

\,\,22000e^{0.025t}

22000e

0.025t

Plug in

\frac{30400}{22000}=

22000

30400

​

=

\,\,\frac{22000e^{0.025t}}{22000}

22000

22000e

0.025t

​

Divide by 22000

1.3818182=

1.3818182=

\,\,e^{0.025t}

e

0.025t

\ln\left(1.3818182\right)=

ln(1.3818182)=

\,\,\ln\left(e^{0.025t}\right)

ln(e

0.025t

)

Take the natural log of both sides

\ln\left(1.3818182\right)=

ln(1.3818182)=

\,\,0.025t

0.025t

ln cancels the e

\frac{\ln\left(1.3818182\right)}{0.025}=

0.025

ln(1.3818182)

​

=

\,\,\frac{0.025t}{0.025}

0.025

0.025t

​

Divide by 0.025

12.9360062=

12.9360062=t

t = 12.9

Tumor counts: A cancer laboratory is estimating the rate of tumorigenesis in two strains of mice, A and B. They have tumor count
Igoryamba

Answer:

The observed tumor counts for the two populations of mice are:

Type A mice = 10 * 12 = 120 counts

Type B mice = 13 * 12 = 156 counts

Step-by-step explanation:

Since type B mice are related to type A mice and given that type A mice have tumor counts that are approximately Poisson-distributed with a mean of 12, we can then assume that the mean of type A mice tumor count rate is equal to the mean of type B mice tumor count rate.

This is because the Poisson distribution can be used to approximate the the mean and variance of unknown data (type B mice count rate) using known data (type A mice tumor count rate).  And the Poisson distribution gives the probability of an occurrence within a specified time interval.

Adding fractions 1/6+2/3=
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

\frac{5}{6}

\frac{1}{6} + \frac{2}{3} is equivalent to \frac{1}{6} + \frac{4}{6}.

This is because \frac{2}{3}=\frac{4}{6}

The rule is, in order to add fractions, your denominators must be equivalent. In other words, you must have the same denominator for both fractions.

<em>Now what do we do? We add!</em>

\frac{1}{6} + \frac{4}{6} =\frac{5}{6}

This is because 4 + 1 = 5.

Your answer is \frac{5}{6}.

I hope this helps!
