9 1/2 is the simplest form. If you are looking for an improper fraction than it would be 19/2. Does this help?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The worth of a penny is 1 cent = 1/100 = $0.01
The worth of a nickel is 5 cents = 5/100 = $0.05
Let x represent the number of pennies that she could have. Lucy has some pennies and some nickels. She has a maximum of 15 coins. If lucky has 6.999999999999999, it means that
6.999999999999999 + x ≥ 15
x ≥ 15 - 6.999999999999999
x ≥ 8
If the 15 coins worth a minimum of $0.47combined, it means that
0.05(6.999999999999999) + 0.01x ≤ 0.47
0.35 + 0.01x ≤ 0.47
0.01x ≤ 0.47 - 0.35
0.01x ≤ 0.12
x ≤ 0.12/0.01
x ≤ 12
Therefore, the possible values for the number of pennies that she could have is 8 ≤ x ≤ 12
Answer:
192
Step-by-step explanation:
To find how many phones are expected to be defective, we need to represent the values in a fraction.
x = number of defective phones
Now we can solve this using algebra.
To get the value of x we need to multiply both sides by 8000 to leave x alone.
So around 192 cell phones are expected to be defective out of 8000 phones.
Answer:
If something is guaranteed, it has a probability of 100%, or 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
A standard deck has 52 cards. Of these, half are red cards (diamonds and hearts) and half are black cards (clovers and spades)
Half of the deck is 26 cards (52 ÷ 2 = 26), so you have 26 red and 26 black cards.
What this means in our context is, if we draw 27 cards, even if we drew all 26 black cards, we would still have 1 red card.
So the probability is 100%, or 1, of drawing a red card when we pick 27 cards from a deck, no matter how it's shuffled
