Is 1/4 less than or greater than 1/8

lana66690 [7]

To find this answer, you need to find a common denominator. A common denominator is when the number on the bottom of two fractions is the same. The easiest was to do this is to first multiply the two denominators, then multiply the numerator (or top number) by the opposite denominator. This sounds complicated, but it's pretty simple. Here's the equation written out. (I hope this helps!)

4*8 = denominator for both numbers.

8*1 = numerator for the first number

4*1 = numerator for the second number.

This should give you the fractions with common denominators, 8/32 and 4/32. Then, to compare the fractions, just see which numerator is larger. In this case, 8 is larger than 1 which shows that 1/4 is greater than 1/8.

I hope this made sense. There's more than one way to solve these problems, so comment below if you would like me to explain it differently and I'll get back to you as soon as I can! :)

Well 36 divided by 6 is 6 so multiply that by two and you get 12 14 divided by 6 is 2.3 round that to 2 and multiply it by 2 you get 4 4 +12 is 16 so 16 should be your answer

Suppose the number of inches of rainfall each year in a city is normally distributed. For a random sample of years, the confiden

quester [9]

Answer:

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

Or equivalently:

$\bar X \pm ME$

For this case we have the interval given (3.9, 7.7) and we want to find the margin of error. Using the property of symmetry for a confidence interval we can estimate the margin of error with this formula:

$ME= \frac{Upper -Lower}{2}= \frac{7.7-3.9}{2}= 1.9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

Or equivalently:

$\bar X \pm ME$

For this case we have the interval given (3.9, 7.7) and we want to find the margin of error. Using the property of symmetry for a confidence interval we can estimate the margin of error with this formula:

$ME= \frac{Upper -Lower}{2}= \frac{7.7-3.9}{2}= 1.9$

justin bought a new costume for 120.00$. How much did he pay for the costume after including 6.25% sales tax

Schach [20]

120 x 0.0625 = $7.50 (that’s the sales tax) added to $120 would bring the total to $127.50
