Answer:

7/8 > 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Well look at it this way: 7/8 needs 1 more eighth until 1. 5/6 needs one more sixth until one. One eighth is smaller, so it requires a smaller amount to get to a greater number, if that makes sense. So 7/8 is greater than 5/6.

$\frac{17}{60}$ and $\frac{1}{4}$ are the experimental probabilities from the table.

Solution:

Total number of times spun the spinner = 60

Number of times getting 1 = 12

Number of times getting 2 = 17

Number of times getting 3 = 15

Number of times getting 4 = 16

Experimental probabilities from the table:

Probability of getting 1 = $\frac{12}{60}=\frac{1}{5}$

Probability of getting 2 = $\frac{17}{60}$

Probability of getting 3 = $\frac{15}{60}=\frac{1}{4}$

Probability of getting 4 = $\frac{16}{60}=\frac{4}{15}$

To determine which are the experimental probabilities from the table:

Option A: 15

This is not obtained above. So, it is not the experimental probability.

Option B: $\frac{17}{60}$

This is obtained in the probability of getting 2.

So, it is the experimental probability.

Option C: $\frac{1}{4}$

This is obtained in the probability of getting 3.

So, it is the experimental probability.

Option D: $\frac{7}{15}$

This is not obtained above. So, it is not the experimental probability.

Option E: $\frac{12}{43}$

This is not obtained above. So, it is not the experimental probability.

Hence $\frac{17}{60}$ and $\frac{1}{4}$ are the experimental probabilities from the table.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you read the question it says that her average speed from the library to the gym is 15 mph less than her speed from her home to the library. So x - 15 is what describes that situation.

If it is A it cannot be anything else.

B is incorrect. x - 15 is not a time. It is a rate. It can be used to develop the amount of time, but by itself it is still A.

C is incorrect. Her average speed from her house to the library is x

D is incorrect. The distance is given as the same as from her home to the library as from the library to the gym. Both are 4
