Answer:

B. 520

Step-by-step explanation:

Partial quotient is simply the method used to find the value of a quotient by dividing bits by bits until you get to the answer. For instance if you want to divide 124/4

Whatever closest multiple of 4 to 124 you remember, write it down. For instance I remember 80 first.

80 is the 20th multiple of 4 (80÷4 = 20).

Then subtract the number from the original number you want to divide

124 – 80 = 44

Again, write down the closest multiple of 44 you remember. To me is 40, and it is the 10th multiple.

Subtract 40 from 44 you have 4 left.

It's now easy to divide 4 by 4 which is 1.

To now get the quotient in total, you'll add up

20 + 10 + 1 = 31.

Therefore, to use partial quotient in this problem, the best choice to begin with will be 520 because it is the 20th multiple of 26. Although 780 is the 30th multiple of 26, 520 will be easier to remember. For this reason, it is the best choice.

Answer:

3.566%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability formula for a poisson distribution is:

P( k )=\frac{\lambda^{k}e^{-\lambda}}{k!} \\

λ is the average of events

e is the euler's number

k is the number of events you want to know the probability

For this :

λ = 8.9 (on average the number of tickets is 8.9 per day)

k = 4 (you need to find the probability that exactly 4 tickets are written per day)

P( k=4 )=\frac{8.9^{4}e^{-8.9}}{4!}=0,03566 =3.566\%

lukranit [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zeros of this polynomial, set the polynomial equal to zero, and then set each of the factors equal to zero separately.  Solve each equation for x:

x  - 1 = 0 yields x = 1.     The x-intercept is (1, 0).

x + 3 = 0 yields x = -3.   The x-intercept is (-3, 0).

2x + 1 = 0 yields x = -1/2   The x-intercept is (-1/2, 0)

Okay so im seeing you need help okay I will tell you how to do number 21 as an example

Step-by-step explanation:

Look for a commen donominater of the 3/8 and 1/3 the denominater would be 24 so 8 times 3 and 3 times 3 so those would be 9/24 and 3/24 , do the 8 plus the ten and you get 18 so 18+ 9/24+3/24= 18 12/24, or 18 1/2

Brainliest for correct answer<br><br> A. 2<br><br> B. -2<br><br> C. 1/2<br><br> D. -1/2
seropon [69]

Answer:

B) -2

Step-by-step explanation:

I got the slope by using two points on the line (0,7) and (4,-1)

Slope=y2-y1/x2-x1

(7--1)/(0-4)

=

8/-4

I then simplified 8/-4 to -2

You could also solve by finding the rise over run for two points on the line.

The rise is 2 and the run is -1, making it 2/-1 or -2
