Which statement correctly describes the decimal form of: 2/9

Mathematics

1 answer:

Tanzania [10]3 years ago

7 0

Answer:

0.222 (repeated)

Step-by-step explanation:

Fractions are essentially another way to write a division expression.

This means that if a/b, then it can also be written as a÷b. (a and b are variables)

So, 2/9 is the same thing as 2÷9.

You can then calculate 2÷9 using a calculator, long division, or any other way you usually solve questions involving division.

Suppose the number of a particular type of bacteria in samples of 1 milliliter (ml) of drinking water tend to be approximately n

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer: 0.0475

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = random variable that represents the number of a particular type of bacteria in samples of 1 milliliter (ml) of drinking water, such that X is normally distributed.

Given: $\mu=85,\ \ \sigma=9$

The probability that a given 1-ml will contain more than 100 bacteria will be:

$P(X>100)=P(\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\dfrac{100-85}{9})\\\\=P(Z>1.67)\ \ \ \ [Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}]\\\\=1-P(Zz)=1-P(Z$

∴The probability that a given 1-ml will contain more than 100 bacteria

0.0475.
