Answer:

0.85 ( lowest value proportion to vaccinate )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the herd immunity relationship

Vc = E - ( E / Ro )

Vc = critical vaccination level

E = vaccine effective against the transmission = 1

Ro = Basic reproduction number

lets assume the effectiveness of the transmission = 100% = 1

lets assume the

Vc = 1 - ( 1 / 3 ) = 67%

but the lowest value proportion to vaccinate = 85%

cinema A sells a twelve pack of moive passes for $66. Cinema B selles a five pack of moive passes for $28. Find the cost per moi

nekit [7.7K]

CINEMA A sells each movie pass for $5.50, and CINEMA B sells each movie pass for $5.60.

To find the cost of each pass in Cinema A, all you would have to do it divide 66 by 12, where you would get 5.5, which in other words would be $5.50. And to find the cost of each pass in Cinema B, you wound divide 28 by 5,and you would get 5.6, which is in other words, $5.60.

Lisa bought an outfit for<br> $37.67. What is $37.67<br> rounded to the nearest<br> whole number?

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Answer is 38

Step-by-step explanation:

if the first digit in the fractional part of 37.67 is less than 5 then you remove the fractional part to get the answer. If the first digit is 5 or above, then you add 1 to the integer and remove the fractional part to get the answer. First digit is 6 - it is 5 and above, you add 1 to the integer and remove fractional part and get 37.67 rounded to the nearest whole number as 38

Helpp!!<br> Simplify : [( 4 1/6 + 2 1/3 ) ÷ 4 1/3 ] - 1 1/2

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{0}}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf{ [ (4 \frac{1}{6} + 2 \frac{1}{3} ) \div 4 \frac{1}{3}] - 1\frac{1}{2} }$

Convert the mixed numbers into improper fraction

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [ ( \frac{25}{6} + \frac{7}{3} ) \div \frac{13}{3}] - \frac{3}{2}}}$

Add the fractions : 25 / 6 and 7 / 3

While performing addition or subtraction of unlike fractions, you have to express the given fractions into equivalent fractions of common denominator and add or subtract as we do with like fraction.

To do so, first take the L.C.M of 6 and 3 which results to 6

$\longrightarrow\sf{ [( \frac{25 + 7 \times 2}{6} ) \div \frac{13}{3} ] - \frac{3}{2}}$

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [( \frac{25 + 14}{6} ) \div \frac{13}{3} ] - \frac{3}{2} }}$

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [ \frac{39}{6} \div \frac{13}{3}] - \frac{3}{2} }}$

Multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor.

Reciprocal of any number or fraction can be obtained by interchanging the position of numerator and denominator

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [ \frac{39}{6} \times \frac{3}{13} ] - \frac{3}{2}}}$

To multiply one fraction by another, multiply the numerators for the numerator and multiply the denominators for its denominator and reduce the fraction obtained after multiplication into lowest term

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [ \frac{39 \times 3}{6 \times 13} ] - \frac{3}{2}}}$

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ [ \frac{117}{78} ] - \frac{3}{2} }}$

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{3}{2} - \frac{3}{2} }}$

While performing the addition or subtraction of like fractions , you just have to add or subtract the numerator respectively in which the denominator is retained same

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{3 - 3}{2} }}$

Subtract 3 from 3

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{0}{2}}}$

Divide 0 by 2

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{0}}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards!
