Explain how to use a horizontal number line to order four fractions from least to greatest.

horsena [70]

Answer:

To order fractions from least to greatest, start by finding the lowest common denominator for all of the fractions. Next, convert each of the fractions by dividing the lowest common denominator by the denominator and then multiplying the top and bottom of the fraction by your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution for the above problem: We first find the least common denominator by finding the least common multiple for 4, 3, 2, 6, and 8. We find the LCM by the prime factorization method. Next, place the fractions in order from least to greatest.

13. Write the equation of a horizontal line that passes through the point (3, -3).

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

O y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is horizontal.

x = -3 and x = 3 are vertical lines, so they are incorrect.

The line passes through (3, -3).

(x , y)

Put y as -3.

y = 3

(-3) = 3

Line y = 3 is incorrect.

(-3) = -3

Line y = -3 is correct.

Write each expression as a single power of 10

swat32

Answer:

It is

${10}^{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{ {10}^{4}. {10}^{5} . {10}^{6} }{ {10}^{3} . {10}^{7} } = \frac{ {10}^{(4 + 5 + 6)} }{ {10}^{(3 + 7)} } \\ \\ = \frac{ {10}^{15} }{ {10}^{10} } \\ \\ = {10}^{(15 - 10)} \\ = {10}^{5}$

Given point B is located at

ELEN [110]

Answer: $\Large\boxed{Point~B'~=~(-4,~-2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information

Point B = (-2, -4)

Reflection line: y = x

Concept:

When reflecting over the line y = x, the position of y and x in the original coordinate switches places.

This is because it is " y = x ", assuming that they could interchange

Find the coordinate of Point B'

Original (x, y) = (-2, -4)

Point B' = (x', y') = (y, x) = $\Large\boxed{(-4,~-2)}$

Please refer to the attachment below for a graphical understanding

Hope this helps!! :)

A certain company sends 40% of its overnight mail parcels by means of express mail service A1. Of these parcels, 4% arrive after

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

(a) The probability that a randomly selected parcel arrived late is 0.026.

(b) The probability that a parcel was late was being shipped through the overnight mail service A₁ is 0.615.

(c) The probability that a parcel was late was being shipped through the overnight mail service A₂ is 0.192.

(d) The probability that a parcel was late was being shipped through the overnight mail service A₃ is 0.192.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the tree diagram below.

(a)

The law of total probability sates that: $P(A)=P(A|B)P(B)+P(A|B')P(B')$

Use the law of total probability to determine the probability of a parcel being late.

$P(L)=P(L|A_{1})P(A_{1})+P(L|A_{2})P(A_{2})+P(L|A_{3})P(A_{3})\\=(0.04\times0.40)+(0.01\times0.50)+(0.05\times0.10)\\=0.026$

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected parcel arrived late is 0.026.

(b)

The conditional probability of an event A provided that another event B has already occurred is:

$P(A|B)=\frac{P(B|A)P(A)}{P(B)}$

Compute the probability that a parcel was late was being shipped through the overnight mail service A₁ as follows:

$P(A_{1}|L)=\frac{P(L|A_{1})P(A_{1})}{P(L)} \\=\frac{0.04\times 0.40}{0.026} \\=0.615$

Thus, the probability that a parcel was late was being shipped through the overnight mail service A₁ is 0.615.

(c)

Compute the probability that a parcel was late was being shipped through the overnight mail service A₂ as follows:

$P(A_{2}|L)=\frac{P(L|A_{2})P(A_{2})}{P(L)} \\=\frac{0.01\times 0.50}{0.026} \\=0.192$

Thus, the probability that a parcel was late was being shipped through the overnight mail service A₂ is 0.192.

(d)

Compute the probability that a parcel was late was being shipped through the overnight mail service A₂ as follows:

$P(A_{3}|L)=\frac{P(L|A_{3})P(A_{3})}{P(L)} \\=\frac{0.05\times 0.10}{0.026} \\=0.192$

Thus, the probability that a parcel was late was being shipped through the overnight mail service A₃ is 0.192.
