How to simplify an improper and proper fraction

1 answer:

4 0

A improper fraction is a number like 10/4. You would simplify that by diving 9 by 4 with remainders. The answer would be 2 R2. So your answer would be 2 2/4.<------ This is a proper fraction. You can simplify this by making it 2 and 1/2.

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Let x be the number of regular health bars you buy and y the number of strawberry health bars you buy. Then:

0.75x+1.25y=3.75

x+y>=3

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first equation, we have to assume that you will spend all of your money, otherwise it becomes an inequation. The money you spend on regular bars is 0.75x dollars and the money you spend on strawberry bars is 1.25y, so if you spend your 3.75 dollars on the bars, then 0.75x+1.25y=3.75.

For the second, you will always buy x+y health bars, regular and strawberry. There isn't enough information to make this into a equation, the only thing we can deduce is the inequation x+y>=3.

If we also assume that x and y are integers (we can't buy half-bars or one-fourth of a bar) then the minimum number of bars we can buy is 3 (3 strawberry bars) and the maximum is 5 bars (5 regular bars). x+y must be an integer too, so the possibilities for the second equation are x+y=3, x+y=4 and x+y=5. There is a finite number of solutions in any case.

Single-sample t test and paid days off: The number of paid days off (e.g., vacation, sick leave) taken by eight employees at a s

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

A. µ is the population average number of paid days off taken by employees that the company.

Null Hypothesis: µ=15 days

Alternate Hypothesis: µ≠15 days

B. one-sample t-test

C. We are unsure if it meets the conditions for a one-sample t-test

D. t=-0.79178; df=7

Step-by-step explanation:

For the null and alternate hypotheses, you want to first define what µ represents. Next, you state them, the null hypothesis being equal to the previously known average, and the alternate hypothesis being greater than, less than, or not equal to the previous average, selecting one depends on the context in the problem.

A one-mean t-test would be used as we are looking to compare the mean of a data set, as well as the fact that we do not know the population standard deviation.

When conducting these tests, we need to ensure that three conditions are being met. The first is random, which means that the data set is randomly gathered, or not, the data here does not seem to be random, which may be concerning. Next is independence, this is done when we survey less than 10% of the overall population, in this case it is a small company, so we do not know if it is less than 10% of the population. Last is normality, the data set is not sufficiently large (greater than 30 people surveyed) so we cannot use the central limit theorem to justify that the data is normal. We can use a normality plot, but when the data is placed on a normality plot most of the data appears to be linear, but the 27 day data point does not seem to be normal, so we cannot fully ensure that it is normal. Based on the data not following these conditions, we have concerns about proceeding with the test, we will therefore have to proceed with caution.

For the last part, use that T-test function on a calculator with statistics functions. Remember to include the degrees of freedom in the answer. (The degrees of freedom is one less than the sample size).

A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 3 miles and a speed of 500 mi/h passes directly over a radar station. Find the rat

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

The rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing is 331 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing by imaging the formation of a right triangle with the following dimensions:

a: is one side of the triangle = altitude of the plane = 3 miles

b: is the other side of the triangle = the distance traveled by the plane when it is 4 miles away from the station and an altitude of 3 miles

h: is the hypotenuse of the triangle = distance between the plane and the station = 4 miles

First, we need to find b:

$a^{2} + b^{2} = h^{2}$ (1)

$b = \sqrt{h^{2} - a^{2}} = \sqrt{(4 mi)^{2} - (3 mi)^{2}} = \sqrt{7} miles$

Now, to find the rate we need to find the derivative of equation (1) with respect to time:

$\frac{d}{dt}(a^{2}) + \frac{d}{dt}(b^{2}) = \frac{d}{dt}(h^{2})$

$2a\frac{da}{dt} + 2b\frac{db}{dt} = 2h\frac{dh}{dt}$

Since "da/dt" is constant (the altitude of the plane does not change with time), we have:

$0 + 2b\frac{db}{dt} = 2h\frac{dh}{dt}$

And knowing that the plane is moving at a speed of 500 mi/h (db/dt):

$\sqrt{7} mi*500 mi/h = 4 mi*\frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{\sqrt{7} mi*500 mi/h}{4 mi} = 331 mi/h$

Therefore, the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing is 331 miles per hour.

I hope it helps you!
