<h3>Answer: No, there isn't enough ribbon</h3>

===========================================================

Use this formula

a & b/c = (a*c+b)/c

to convert from a mixed number to an improper fraction

So,

a & b/c = (a*c+b)/c

3 & 3/4 = (3*4+3)/4

3 & 3/4 = 15/4

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

Next, we add the fractions 15/4 and 5/6. The denominators aren't the same, so we can't add right away. We need to get the denominators to the LCD.

In this case, the LCD is 4*6 = 24

  • The fraction 15/4 becomes 90/24 after multiplying top and bottom by 6.
  • The fraction 5/6 becomes 20/24 after multiplying top and bottom by 4

Now we can add the fractions:

90/24+20/24 = (90+20)/24 = 110/24

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

So far, we've added the 3&3/4 portion to the 5/6 portion to get the result 110/24

The last thing to do is to add on the two 1/3 ft pieces, which means we're adding on 2/3 of a foot

2/3 = 16/24 after multiplying top and bottom by 8

Add this to the result of the last section

110/24+16/24 = (110+16)/24 = 126/24

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

From here, we convert the improper fraction 126/24 to decimal form

Using a calculator, you should find that 126/24 = 5.25

The result is larger than 5, which means she used too much ribbon. There won't be enough ribbon to do everything she wants to do.

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

The shortcut we can take is to type the following into the calculator

3+3/4+5/6+2/3

doing so should lead to 5.25

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

So at the begining, Cherly has 60 in (12inx5ft) of ribbon. She uses 45 in(3.75x12) to make the hair bow, leaving 15 in of ribbon. She, then, uses 10 in (5/6x12) of ribbon, leaving 5 in. After that, Cheryl uses 8 in [2(1/3x12)] to put on the picture frame, leaving two inches of ribbon.

The product of two consecutive integers is 5 more than three time the larger. What are the integers?
kvasek [131]
When calculating consecutive integers, the smaller number is x and the larger number is (x + 1).
So the equation you can use is x + (x + 1) = 5 + 3(x + 1)
This is because the sum of the consecutive integers are equal to 5 more than 3 times the larger integer.
Now simplify:
x + (x + 1) = 5 + 3(x + 1)
2x + 1 = 5 + 3(x + 1)
2x + 1 = 5 + 3x + 3
2x + 1 = 3x + 8
Now isolate the variable:
2x + 1 = 3x + 8
Subtract 2x from both sides:
1 = x + 8
Subtract 8 from both side:
-7 = x
x = -7
So the smaller number is -7 and the larger number is -6.

Now check your answer:
-7 + (-7 + 1) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 + (-6) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 + (-6) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 - 6 = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-13 = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-13 = 5 + 3(-6)
-13 = 5 + (-18)
-13 = 5 - 18
-13 = -13
This works!

So the integers are -7 and -6.

It has been estimated that only about 30% of California residents have adequate earthquake supplies. Suppose we are interested i
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 30% of California residents have adequate earthquake supplies.

a) Ramon variable X denotes the number of the california residents that have adequate earthquake insurance

B) x can take value 1 ,2 ,3 ......

C)The distribution of random variable is geometric distribution with parameter p=0.3

The pmf of geometric distribution is

P(X=x)=0.3(1-0.3)^{x-1} , x=1,2,3...

D)P(X=1) or P(X=2)=P(X=1)+P(X=2)

P(X=1) or P(X=2)=0.3(1-0.3)^{1-1}+0.3(1-0.3)^{2-1}=0.51

E)

P(X \geq 3)=1-P(X

F)

E(X)=\frac{1}{p}

p is the resident who does not have adequate earthquake supplies.

p = 1-0.3 = 0.7

E(X)=\frac{1}{0.7}=1.42

G)E(X)=\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{0.3}=3.33
