Answer:

<em>The approximate probability that a random vehicle is a passenger car is 74.67%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Probability</u>

The traffic engineer records 112 passenger cars, 18 light trucks, and 20 heavy trucks. The total of vehicles recorded is n=112+18+20 = 150.

We are required to find the probability that a randomly selected vehicle crossing the bridge is a passenger car. There are 112 passenger cars, thus the probability is:

\displaystyle p=\frac{112}{150}

p = 0.7467

p = 74.67%

The approximate probability that a random vehicle is a passenger car is 74.67%

Write a decimal subtraction problem that requires regrouping to solve. then solve the problem
Svetach [21]
For example, think about 8.4 - 2.9.

You have to regroup because you can't subract 4 - 9.
4 turns into a 14 since you borrow from the left number, 8.
8 turns into a 7 after that.
Now, you have to subtract 14 - 9 and 7 - 2. You're answer is 5.5.
You can check your work by doing inverse opperations:
By adding:
5.5 + 2.9 = 8.4
Or by subracting 8.4 - 5.5 = 2.9

Hope this helped you! If you need a better explaination or another example, I will be happy to help you! :)

Match the description to the best example so that all terms have a matching example.

Answer:

I'm pretty sure a set a decimal fractions is {1/4, 1/2, 3/4}

I think a set of whole numbers is {3, 4, 5.}

A set of integers might be {-2, -1, 0, +1.}

I'm am sure a set of natural numbers is {1, 2, 3.}

The set if rational numbers is {0.1, 0.2, 0.3} I think.

I am not that sure if my answers are right or not so sorry if this is incorrect.
