Answer:

0.8 yards or 28.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

I always turn fractions into decimals because it is easier to figure it out and simpler.

So 1/5 would be 2/10 because you multiply the whole thing by 2 to make the denominator 10 so you can turn it into a decimal.

So the decimal is 0.2

You would divide 7.2 by 9 to get 0.8 yards which is 28.8 inches.

wel

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total 'halwa' made = 1

Divided into four equal portion = 1/4

Arrival of an unexpected guest = 1/5

By what percentage has each family member's share been reduced:

Change in the sharing proportion:

Previous share ratio - new sharing ratio

(1/4 - 1/5) = (5 - 4) / 20 = 1/20

That means total reduction in the sharing = 1/ 20

Since each member comes contributed equally:

Reduction in each family member's share ;

(1 / 20) ÷ 4

(1 / 20) * 1/4 = 1/ 80

Percentage reduction:

(Reduction / original share) * 100%

[(1/80) ÷ (1/4)] * 100

(1/80 * 4/1) * 100%

(1/20) * 100%

= 5%

Reduction in each family members share = 5%

The times to process orders at the service counter of a pharmacy are exponentially distributed with mean 1 0 minutes. If 100 cus
g100num [7]

Answer:

Therefore,  the probability that at least half of them need to wait more than 10 minutes is <em>0.0031</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the probability of an exponential distribution is:

P(x < b) = 1 - e^(b/3)

Using the complement rule, we can determine the probability of a customer having to wait more than 10 minutes, by:

p = P(x > 10)

  = 1 - P(x < 10)

  = 1 - (1 - e^(-10/10) )

  = e⁻¹

  = 0.3679

The z-score is the difference in sample size and the population mean, divided by the standard deviation:

z = (p' - p) / √[p(1 - p) / n]

  = (0.5 - 0.3679) / √[0.3679(1 - 0.3679) / 100)]

  = 2.7393

Therefore, using the probability table, you find that the corresponding probability is:

P(p' ≥ 0.5) = P(z > 2.7393)

<em>P(p' ≥ 0.5) = 0.0031</em>

<em></em>

Therefore,  the probability that at least half of them need to wait more than 10 minutes is <em>0.0031</em>.
