What does it mean to divide a number by
a fraction (e.g., ¾)?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: You can divide a number by a fraction by flipping over the fraction and multiplying them together.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example:

Lets say we wanted to divide 8 by 3/4

8÷[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Change the division symbol into multiplication, and flip over the fraction (a great way to remember doing this is to remember the phrase Copy Dot Flip - Copy the first digit as it is, put a dot for multiplication, and then flip the fraction over)

8 ·[tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Now, just multiply and reduce/simplify the fraction if needed

Final answer is [tex]\frac{32}{3}[/tex], no need to simplify or reduce

Hope that helps!!

so, the equation is: 2x-10 = 65-x

Answer:

The right equation will be 2x - 10 = 65 - x (you were wrong lol)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have: 2x - 10 = 65 - x

=> 2x - 10 + x = 65

=> 3x = 65 + 10 = 75

=> x = 75/3 = 25

For example, you may want to know if the average weight of a rippled potato chip is the same as the average weight of a non-rippled potato chip. You may weigh rippled regular potato chips fro m a large bag and find weights of 1.7,1.9,2.4,1.3, 1.7, and 2.0 grams. You may weigh non-rippled potato chips from another larg bag and find weights of 1.8, 1.6,1.9, 1.9, and 1.4 grams. Assume a random sample was drawn. Think of a problem that you may be interested in that deals with a comparison of two population proportions. Propose either a confidence interval or a hypothesis test question that compares these two proportions. Gather appropriate data and post your problem (without a solution) in the discussion topic.

For example, you may believe that the proportion of adults in California who are vegetarians is more than the proportion of adults in New Hampshire who are vegetarians.

Answer:

Decision rule

 Fail to reject the null hypothesis

Conclusion

There is no sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of residents in California who are vegetarians is higher than the proportion in New Hampshire who are vegetarian  

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are going to consider this question

For example, you may believe that the proportion of adults in California who are vegetarians is more than the proportion of adults in New Hampshire who are vegetarians. In two independent polls, you may find that 109 out of 380 California residents are vegetarians and 39 out of 205 New Hampshire residents are vegetarians.

Here we are going to be solving the hypothesis test problem and we will be making use of the p-value method

From the question the we are told that

     The first sample size is  [tex]n_1 = 380[/tex]

       The second sample size is [tex]n_2 = 205[/tex]

       The number of California residents that are vegetarian is [tex]k = 109[/tex]

       The number of New Hampshire resident that are veterinarian is [tex]u = 39[/tex]

Generally the sample proportion for California residents is

      [tex]\^ p_1 = \frac{k}{n_1}[/tex]

=> [tex]\^ p_1 =\frac{109}{380}[/tex]

=> [tex]\^ p_1 =  0.2868 [/tex]

Generally the sample proportion for New Hampshire residents is

     [tex]\^ p_2 = \frac{39}{205}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\^ p_2 = 0.1902 [/tex]  

The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o  :  p_1 -p_2 = 0[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a :  p_1 -p_2 > 0[/tex]

 Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented  as

[tex]t  =  \frac{(\^ p_1 - \^ p_2 ) -0}{\sqrt{ \frac{\^ p_1 (1-\^p_1 )}{n_1}  + \frac{\^ p_2 (1- \^p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex]

=> [tex]t  =  \frac{( 0.2868 - 0.1902) -0}{\sqrt{ \frac{0.2868 (1-0.2868 )}{380}  + \frac{0.1902(1- 0.1902)}{205} } }[/tex]  

=>  [tex]t  =  0.036[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

      [tex]df  =  n_1 + n_2 -2[/tex]

=>    [tex]df  =  380 + 205 -2[/tex]

=>    [tex]df  =  583/tex]

Generally the probability of  [tex]t  =  0.036[/tex] at a degree of freedom of   [tex]df  =  583/tex]  from the t- distribution table is  

      [tex]p-value  =  P(t >  0.036) =  0.48564732[/tex]

Let take the level of significance to be [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

So from the values obtained we see that  [tex]p-value  >  \alpha[/tex] hence the decision rule is  

   Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is

  There is no sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of residents in California who are vegetarians is higher than the proportion in New Hampshire who are vegetarian

a stone which is dropped into a dry well hits the bottom in 2.2s how deep is the well. take g=10m/s​

Answers

Answer:

23.7m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

       Time taken = 2.2s

     Acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s

Unknown:

Depth of the well  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we simply apply one of the motion equations;

        S = ut + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] gt²

    where S = depth of the well

                u = initial velocity

                t = time taken

               g = acceleration due to gravity

 Input the parameters and solve for S;

   Note initial velocity = 0;

     S = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 9.8 x 2.2²

    S = 23.7m

The weekly demand function for x units of a product sold by only one firm is
p = 800 − 0.5x dollars, and the average cost of production and sale is C(with a line on top) = 300 + 2x dollars.

(a) Find the quantity that will maximize profit.

(b) Find the selling price at this optimal quantity.

(c) What is the maximum profit?

Answers

Answer:

a) x = 798   is the quantity that maximizes the profit

b)po(x) = 401 $/unit

c)P(max ) = 636105 $

Step-by-step explanation:

The weekly demand function is equal to the price by unit and the Revenue function is weekly demand times quantity of units then:

R(x) = p(x) * x

R(x) = ( 800 - 0,5*x ) * x

R(x) = 800*x - 0,5*x²

The equation for the profit is:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = 800*x - 0,5*x² - ( 300 + 2*x)

P(x) = 798*x - 0,5*x² - 300

a) P(x) = 798*x - 0,5*x² - 300

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation:

P´(x) = 798 - x

If P´(x) = 0     then    798 - x = 0

x = 798   is the quantity that maximizes the profit

b) Selling price for the optimal quantity is:

p(x) = 800 - 0,5*x

p(x) = 800 - 0,5* 798

po (x) = 800 - 399

po(x) = 401 $/unit

c) Pmax = ?

P(x) = 798*x - 0,5*x² - 300    by subtitution of  x = 798

P(max) = 636804 - 399 - 300

P(max ) = 636105 $

a) The quantity that will maximize profit is [tex]100 \ units[/tex].

b) The selling of at this optimal quantity is [tex]\[/tex][tex]750[/tex] per unit.

c) So, the maximum profit is [tex]\[/tex][tex]25000[/tex].

Demand Function:

A demand function is a mathematical equation that expresses the demand for a product or service as a function of its price and other factors such as the prices of the substitutes and complementary goods, income, etc.

The given demand function,

[tex]P=800-\frac{1}{2}x[/tex]

So, the revenue function is,

[tex]R(x)=p.x\\R(x)=800-x-\frac{1}{2}x^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow[/tex]Average cost is

[tex]\bar{C}=300+2x[/tex]

So, the total cost function is,

[tex]C\left ( x \right )=\bar{C}.x \\ C\left ( x \right )=300x+2x^{2}[/tex]

a) Profit function:

[tex]P\left ( x \right )=R\left ( x \right )-C\left ( x \right ) \\ =800x-\frac{1}{2}x^{2}-300x-2x^{2} \\ P\left ( x \right )=500x-\frac{5}{2}x^{2}[/tex]

For maximum,

[tex]{P}'\left ( x \right )=0 \\ 500\left ( 1 \right )-\frac{5}{2}\left ( 2x \right )=0 \\ 500-5x=0 \\ x=100[/tex]

b) Selling Price:

[tex]P=800-\frac{1}{2}x \\ at \ x=100 \\ P=800-\frac{1}{2}\left ( 100 \right ) \\ =\$ 750[/tex]

c) Maximum Profit:

[tex]P\left ( x \right )=500x-\frac{5}{2}x^{2} \\ P\left ( 100 \right )=500\left ( 100 \right )-\frac{5}{2}\left ( 100 \right )^{2} \\ P\left ( 100 \right )=\$ 25000[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Antoine bikes for 16B miles before starting his walk.

Step-by-step explanation:

16 is that speed which is covered in B hours by bike by Antoine

What is speed?

Speed is defined as The rate of change of position of an object in any direction. Speed is measured as the ratio of distance to the time in which the distance was covered. Speed is a scalar quantity as it has only direction and no magnitude.

Speed = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Given,

16B+3.5W = 22 an equation in which B is time covered by bike and W is time covered by walk

Antoine travels partially by bike and partially by walk, and total covered 22

That means 16B is the distance covered by bike, and 16 is its speed.

Hence, 16 is that speed which is covered in B hours by bike.
