What is 1 and 1/4 minus 3/8?

Mathematics

matrenka [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can change all the fractions to have equivalent denominators.

The Least Common Denominator of 1 1/4 and 3/8 is 8. Now we can change the fractions.

1 1/4 = 1 2/8 = 10/8.

3/8 = 3/8.

Now we can subtract. Subtract the numerators of the first fraction from the numerators of the second fraction, and the denominators oft he first fraction to the denominators of the second fraction.

10/8 - 3/8 = 7/8.

Therefore, 1 1/4 - 3/8 = 7/8; the fourth answer.

What is the arc measure of an arc with length 4.189 cm and radius equal to 3 cm.'?
Mazyrski [523]
Given that the arc length is 4.189 cm and the radius is 3 cm, the size of the arc will found as follows;
C=theta/360 πd
suppose:
size  of arc=theta=x
d=3*2=6 cm
hence;
4.189=x/360*π*6
4.189=0.0524x
x=4.189/0.0524
x=80.004°
The size of the arc length is 80.004°

An educational psychologist wants to test whether a new teaching method negatively affects reading comprehension scores. She ran
yarga [219]

Answer:

z=\frac{87.8-90.1}{\frac{17.3}{\sqrt{38}}}=-0.820  

The p value for this case would be given by:

p_v =2*P(z  

Since the p value is very high ant any significance level we will have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, so then we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from 90.1 and the method not shows a significantly effect in the scores.

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

\bar X=87.8 represent the sample mean for the scores on the standardized test in the general population of 6th graders    

\sigma=17.3 represent the population standard deviation

n=38 sample size  

\mu_o =90.1 represent the value that we want to verify

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value for the test

System of hypothesis

We want to verify if the new teaching method negatively affects reading comprehension scores, so then the system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis:\mu =90.1  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 90.1  

Since we know the population deviation the statistic would be:

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

Replacing the info given we got:

z=\frac{87.8-90.1}{\frac{17.3}{\sqrt{38}}}=-0.820  

The p value for this case would be given by:

p_v =2*P(z  

Since the p value is very high ant any significance level we will have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, so then we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from 90.1 and the method not shows a significantly effect in the scores.
