Answer:

<em>24, 48, 72, 96</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Least Common Multiple (LCM)</u>

It's the smallest positive number that is a multiple of two or more numbers. For example, let's find the LCM of 15 and 25:

Multiples of 15: 15,30,45,60,75,90,...

Multiples of 25: 25,50,75,100,...

Note 75 is a common multiple of both and is also the smallest possible.

Lin puts a snowflake sticker every 6 lockers and a snowman sticker every 8 lockers. To find the lockers where both stickers are places, we must find the LCM of 6 and 8:

6 = 2*3

8 = 2*2*2

Multiplying the common factors the maximum number of times it appears:

LCM = 2*2*2*3 = 24

Thus, every 24 lockers there are two stickers until Lin reaches the last 100th locker along the halfway.

The sequence of lockers is:

24, 48, 72, 96

mote1985 [20]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Given : In a restaurant, the proportion of people who order coffee with their dinner is p.

Sample size : n= 144

x= 120

\hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}=\dfrac{120}{144}=0.83333333\approx0.8333

The null and the alternative hypotheses if you want to test if p is greater than or equal to 0.85 will be :-

Null hypothesis : H_0: p\geq0.85   [ it takes equality (=, ≤, ≥) ]

Alternative hypothesis : H_1: p  [its exactly opposite of null hypothesis]

∵Alternative hypothesis is left tailed, so the test is a left tailed test.

Test statistic : z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}

z=\dfrac{0.83-0.85}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.85(1-0.85)}{144}}}\\\\=-0.561232257678\approx-0.56

Using z-vale table ,

Critical value for 0.05 significance ( left-tailed test)=-1.645

Since the calculated value of test statistic is greater than the critical value , so we failed to reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion : We have enough evidence to support the claim that p is greater than or equal to 0.85.

Is 1/4 less than 1/10
vaieri [72.5K]

1/4 is equal to 0.25

1/10 is equal to 0.10

so no, 1/4 is not less than 1/10
