Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of different ways that division of fractions can be done.

1) "invert and multiply"

$\dfrac{14}{15}\div\dfrac{7}{5}=\dfrac{14}{15}\times\dfrac{5}{7}\\\\=\dfrac{14}{7}\times\dfrac{5}{15}=\boxed{\dfrac{2}{3}}$

2) use the numerators when the denominators are the same

$\dfrac{14}{15}\div\dfrac{7}{5}=\dfrac{14}{15}\div\dfrac{21}{15}\\\\=\dfrac{14}{21}=\boxed{\dfrac{2}{3}}$

A researcher is interested in determining if the more than two thirds of students would support making the Tuesday before Thanks

klio [65]

Answer:

a. p = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are in favor of making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving a holiday, or they are against. This means that we can solve this problem using concepts of the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

So, the binomial probability distribution has two parameters, n and p.

In this problem, we have that $n = 1000$ and $p = \frac{700}{1000} = 0.7$ . So the parameter is

a. p = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

PLEASE HELP. graph the set of points which model is most appropriate for the set (-6,4)(-4,0)(-3,-2)(-1,-7)

SOVA2 [1]

A linear equation would be the best fit, but the last point (-1,-7) kinda messes it up. If the -7 would have been a -6 the line y=-2x-8 would fit perfectly.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

represented by the graph of a straight line through the origin with a slope equal to the unit rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each point (x, y) on the graph, ž is equal to k, where k is the unit rate.
