We must transform the mixed numbers to the improper fraction.

5\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{5\cdot4+1}{4}=\dfrac{21}{4}\\\\-2\dfrac{1}{4}=-\dfrac{2\cdot4+1}{4}=\dfrac{9}{4}

Calculate a product:

\left(5\dfrac{1}{4}\right):\left(-2\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=\dfrac{21}{4}:\left(-\dfrac{9}{4}\right)=-\dfrac{21}{\not4_1}\cdot\dfrac{\not4^1}{9}=-\dfrac{21:3}{9:3}=-\dfrac{7}{3}

Answer:

-7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

That'd be 21/4 divided by -9/2, or, equivalently, 21/4 times -2/9.

From this we get -42/36, which, when reduced, yields -7/6.

The price of a watch was increased by 20% to £162. What was the price before the increase?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

= £135

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price = 100%

Percentage increase = 20%

New price = 100% + 20% = 120%

If 120% = £162

What about 100% = ?

= (100 x 162) ÷ 120

= 16200 ÷ 120

= £135

Consider an assembly line with 20 stations. Each station has a 0.5% probability of making a defect. At the end of the line, an i
vova2212 [387]
The answer is 0.4%. The probability that a unit end in a rework can be calculated using the following equation:

P(rework)= P(defects found) * P(defect)
                = .8 * .005
                = .004
                = 0.4%

What is the mean absolute deviation of the following set of data 10 4 12 4 2 10 10 6
mart [117]

The mean absolute deviation of the given data 10, 4, 12, 4, 2, 10, 10, 6 is 3.1875.

According to the given question.

The given data set is

10, 4, 12, 4, 2, 10, 10, 6

Mean of the given data set  

= (10 + 4 +  12 + 4 + 2 + 10 + 10 + 6)/8

= 7.25

Now, the absolute values are:

|10 - 7.25| = 2.75

|4 - 7.25| = 3.25

|12 -7.25| = 4.25

| 4 - 7.25| = 3.25

| 2 - 7.25| = 5.25

| 10 - 7.25| = 2.75

| 10 - 7.25| = 2.75

| 6 - 7.25| = 1.25

The average of all absolute values

= (2.75 + 3.25 + 4.25 + 3.25 + 5.25 + 2.75 + 2.75 + 1.25)/8

= 25.5/8

= 3.1875

Therefore, the mean absolute deviation of the given data 10, 4, 12, 4, 2, 10, 10, 6 is 3.1875.
