When dividing by a fraction you flip the second fraction over and change to multiply.

The error was simplifying the -36 and the 28

That shouldn’t have been done. After flipping the fraction over they should have multiplied across:

-36/1 x 6/28 = (-36 x 6) / (1 x 28) = -216/28

Rewrite as: -7 5/7

Ling lives 2 miles from school. It took him 15 minutes to bike from school to home. The first half of the distance he biked at a

alexdok [17]

A) time = distance/speed
For the first half of the trip, the time used was
.. (1 mi)/(12 mi/h) = (1/12) h = 5 minutes
Then the last half of the trip took 10 minutes, 1/6 hour.
.. speed = distance/time
.. = (1 mi)/(1/6 h) = 6 mi/h

The speed for the last half of the trip was 6 mph.

b) The average speed was
.. (2 mi)/(1/4 h) = 8 mi/h

Ling's average speed was 8 mph.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9/2 is the slope. Slope defines how steep is the straight line.

Slope = change in y ÷ change in x

In this model, 9 refers to the vertical distance between two points

and 2 refers to the horizontal distance between two points.

9/2 is a positive slope. It indicates that if 'x' increases, y also increase.

$5500 \times \frac{2}{100} = 55 \times 2 = 110$

In the general population, one woman in eight will develop breast

MArishka [77]

Answer:

a) 8/10

b) $0.001 \overline{33}$

c) Independent events

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The proportion of women than carries a mutation of the BRCA gene, P(A) = 1/600

The proportion of women in which the mutation develops breast cancer, P(B) = 8/10

a) The probability that a randomly selected woman will develop breast cancer given that she has a mutation of the BRCA gene is given as follows;

1 × P(B) = 1 × 8/10 = 8/10

b) The probability, P that a randomly selected woman woman will carry the mutation of the BRCA gene and will develop breast cancer is given as follows;

P(A) × P(B) = 1/600×8/10 = 1/750 = $0.001 \overline{33}$

c) The events are dependent

Given that P(A) × P(B) = P(A∩B), the events of carrying the mutation and developing Breast cancer are independent events.
