2/3 - 1/2 in lowest terms?

Mathematics
1 answer:
RoseWind [281]2 years ago

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

convert 2/3 and 1/2 into fractions with the same denominator

2/3 = 4/6

1/2 = 3/6

4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6

1/6 can not be simplified further

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

a) The mean is \mu = 60

b) The standard deviation is \sigma = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The probability a student selected at random takes at least 55.50 minutes to complete the examination equals 0.6915.

This means that when X = 55.5, Z has a pvalue of 1 - 0.6915 = 0.3085. This means that when X = 55.5, Z = -0.5

So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-0.5 = \frac{55.5 - \mu}{\sigma}

-0.5\sigma = 55.5 - \mu

\mu = 55.5 + 0.5\sigma

The probability a student selected at random takes no more than 71.52 minutes to complete the examination equals 0.8997.

This means that when X = 71.52, Z has a pvalue of 0.8997. This means that when X = 71.52, Z = 1.28

So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

1.28 = \frac{71.52 - \mu}{\sigma}

1.28\sigma = 71.52 - \mu

\mu = 71.52 - 1.28\sigma

Since we also have that \mu = 55.5 + 0.5\sigma

55.5 + 0.5\sigma = 71.52 - 1.28\sigma

1.78\sigma = 71.52 - 55.5

\sigma = \frac{(71.52 - 55.5)}{1.78}

\sigma = 9

\mu = 55.5 + 0.5\sigma = 55.5 + 0.5*9 = 55.5 + 4.5 = 60

Question

The mean is \mu = 60

The standard deviation is \sigma = 9

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

You set the fraction up at first as 45/100. Then you know that 5 goes into each so you divide by 5 \frac{45}{100} /5

45/5=9

100/5=20

You get 9/20, and this is in simplest form.

Suppose the sound wave has the form y=7cos(3x-pi/6) for x in the interval [pi/6 , 7pi/18]. Express x as a function of y, and sta
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

x = ⅓ acos(y/7) + π/18, [-7, 7/2]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 7 cos(3x − π/6)

Solving for x:

y/7 = cos(3x − π/6)

acos(y/7) = 3x − π/6

acos(y/7) + π/6 = 3x

x = ⅓ acos(y/7) + π/18

The domain of x is the same as the range of y.

When x = π/6:

y = 7 cos(3π/6 − π/6)

y = 7 cos(π/3)

y = 7/2

When x = 7π/18:

y = 7 cos(21π/18 − π/6)

y = 7 cos(π)

y = -7

So the domain of x as a function of y is [-7, 7/2].
