Answer:

Move the decimal point of the divisor to the right until it becomes a whole number. Move the decimal point od the dividend the same number of places, then do the division (long division).

When dividing by a decimal divisor, we use the following procedure:

1)Multiply the divisor by a power of 10 to make it a whole number.

2)Multiply the dividend by the same power of 10. 3(Place the decimal point in the quotient.

4)Divide the dividend by the whole-number divisor to find the quotient.

(b)<br> Using the formula 2T = M + 3K, find the value of K when T = 11 and M = 4.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

K = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in what the letter equals to

Equation will look like:

2(11) = 4 + 3k  or  3k + 4 = 2(11)

multiple the 2 by 11 and get 22

3k + 4 = 22 subtract the 4 so it can leave the 3k alone

22 - 4 = 18 now divide 3 from k and do it in the other side

18/3 = 6

so K = 6

Strawberries cost $2 per pound. Kate buys 5 pounds and gets 20% discount on the total cost. How much does Kate pay for the straw
Tema [17]

The total cost without the discount is given by:

C = (2) * (5)\\C = 10$

Then, to find the discounted amount, we make the following rule of three:

10 $ ------------------> 100%

x ----------------------> 20%

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

x = (\frac{20}{100}) * (10)\\x = 2

Then, the cost of the Strawberries with the discount is:

10 - 2 = 8 $

Answer:

Kate pays for the strawberries about $ 8.

Student performance across discussion sections: A professor who teaches a large introductory statistics class (197 students) wit
adell [148]

Answer:

The test is not significant at 5% level of significance, hence we conclude that there's no variation among the discussion sections.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assumptions:

1. The sampling from the different discussion sections was independent and random.

2. The populations are normal with means and constant variance

H_0: There's no variation among the discussion sections

H_1: There's variation among the discussion sections

\alpha =0.05

                Df     Sum Sq       Mean sq    F value     Pr(>F)

Section     7       525.01         75             1.87            0.99986

Residuals  189    7584.11        40.13

Test Statistic = F= \frac{75}{40.13} =1.87

Pr(>F) = 0.99986

Since our p-value is greater than our level of significance (0.05), we do not reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there's no significant variation among the eight discussion sections.
