Ursula wrote the sum 5.815+6.021 as a sum of two mixed numbers.

1 answer:

6 0

As the sum of mixed numbers:
5.815 = 5 + 815/1000
6.021 = 6 + 21/100
Therefore
5.815 + 6.021 = 5 + 6 + (815+21)/1000
= 11 + 836/1000
= 11 + 209/250

Part a.
The sum is $11\, \frac{209}{250}$

Part b.
As the sum of decimals:
5.815
+ 6.021
----------
= 11.836

To compare the two results, evaluate209/250 as a decimal to see whether it is 0.836.

0.836
------------------
250 | 209.000
2000
--------
900
750
----------
1500
1500

Because 209/250 = 0.836, the two sums agree.

Answer:

B. Yes, because P(X ≥ 68) ≤ .05

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of a score X occuring is said to be unusually high if the probability of a score of X or larger is lower than 5%.

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they think that the court shows too much concern for criminals, or they do not think this. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

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

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