0.25 is the probability that you would select a score between 300 and 700. I used the empirical rule when i solved this.
U turn negative numbers from mixed numbers to improper fractions the same way u do with positive...u just temporarily disregard the negative sign.
Example :
- 2 2/3.....temporarily disregard the negative sign......take ur whole number (2) and multiply it by ur denominator (3) giving u 6, then add that to ur numerator (2) giving u 8....then put that number over the original denominator (3) giving u 8/3...and then put back ur negative sign...-8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Four bought a book at $6
4 x $6 = $24
8 x $x = $8x
Expression
$24 + $8x
X = how much Tim has
y = how much Tom has
x + y = 2.40
x = 3y
Substitute 3y for x
3y + y = 2.40
4y = 2.40
y = 0.60
Plug in y value into previous equation
x = 3(0.60)
x = 1.80
ANSWERS: Tim has $1.80 and Tom has $0.60
