Reduce then calculate 7/8 x 4/15 x 3/7 = ? Can you help?

1 answer:

8 0

since this is a multiplication, all the numerators are just factors of the product numerator and all denominators are just factors of the product denominator, so we can simply reorder them some, without changing the product.

$\bf \cfrac{7}{8}\times \cfrac{4}{15}\times \cfrac{3}{7}\implies \cfrac{7}{7}\times \cfrac{4}{8}\times \cfrac{3}{15}\implies \cfrac{1}{1}\times \cfrac{1}{2}\times \cfrac{1}{5}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 1\cdot 1}{1\cdot 2\cdot 5}\implies \cfrac{1}{10}$

An item that originally cost $12 is marked down 30%. What is the price of the item after the markdown? Show work please

Anettt [7]

First we have to determine 30% of 12.

(30×12)÷100=3.6 so 3.6 is 30% of 12.

12 - 3.6= 8.4

Your answer is 8.4

What is the best way to classify each equation? 22-3x+7x=4(x+5) ,6(2x-3=3(3-5), 6x-14=2(3x-7), 6x+3(x-4)=8(x-3)

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

1. 22 - 3x + 7x = 4(x + 5)
 22 - 3x + 7x = 4x + 20
 +3x +3x +3x 
 22 + 10x = 7x + 20
 -7x -7x 
 22 + 3x = 20
 -22 -22
 3x = -2
 3 3
 x = -2/3

2. 6(2x - 3) = 3(3 - 5)
 12x - 18 = 3(-2)
 12x - 18 = -6
 +18 +18
 12x = 12
 12 12
 x = 1

3. 6x - 14 = 2(3x - 7)
 6x - 14 = -3x
 6x - 14 = 2(-7)
 6x - 14 = -14
 +14 +14
 6x = 0
 6 6
 x = 0

4. 6x + 3(x - 4) = 8(x - 3)
 6x + 3x - 12 = 8x - 24
 9x - 12 = 8x - 24
 -8x -8x 
 x - 12 = -24
 +12 +12
 x = -12

In a newspaper poll concerning violence on television, 589 people were asked, "What is your opinion of the amount of violence on

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

(a) $P(Y'|M)\approx 0.3297$

(b) $P(Y|M')\approx 0.8323$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given table is

Yes No Don't Know Total

Men 162 92 25 279

Women 258 41 11 310

Total 420 133 36 589

According the the conditional probability, if A and B are two event then

$P(A|B)=P(\frac{A}{B})=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}$

We need to find the following probabilities.

Let Y is the event "saying yes," and M is the event "being a man."

(a)

$P(Y'|M)=\frac{P(Y'\cap M)}{P(M)}$

$P(Y'|M)=\frac{\frac{92}{589}}{\frac{279}{589}}$

$P(Y'|M)=\frac{92}{279}$

$P(Y'|M)=0.329749103943$

$P(Y'|M)\approx 0.3297$

(b)

$P(Y|M')=\frac{P(Y\cap M')}{P(M')}$

$P(Y|M')=\frac{\frac{258}{589}}{\frac{310}{589}}$

$P(Y|M')=\frac{258}{310}$

$P(Y|M')=0.832258064516$

$P(Y|M')\approx 0.8323$

(c)

$P(Y'|M')=\frac{P(Y'\cap M')}{P(M')}$

$P(Y'|M')=\frac{\frac{41}{589}}{\frac{310}{589}}$

$P(Y'|M')=\frac{41}{310}$

$P(Y'|M')=0.132258064516$

$P(Y'|M')\approx 0.1323$

How can I find the x value? How can I explain it? PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTION!!!

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Discussion
What you have presented is called a cyclic quadrilateral. A cyclic quadrilateral is a 4 sided figure whose angles (4 of them) all touch the circumference of a circle.

Here's what you want to know. Two angles that are opposite each other are supplementary (they add to 180 degrees)

Equation
x + 80 = 180 Subtract 80 from both sides.

Solution
x + 80 - 80 = 180 - 80 Combine
x = 100

Answer
x = 100
