Answer:

The first fraction is between 27 and 28, closer to 28. The second fraction is between 3 and 4, closer to 4. Compatible numbers in division are numbers that can be divided mentally. 28 divided by 4 is 7. The quotient will be around 7.

Answer:

The fraction 27 and two-thirds are between 27 and 28, closer to 28.

The fraction 3 and StartFraction 9 over 10 EndFraction is between 3 and 4, closer to 4.

Compatible numbers are easily divided.

By changing the numbers to 28 and 4, you can use the division 28 ÷ 4 = 7.

Seventy independent messages are sent from an electronic transmission center.Messages are processed sequentially, one after anot
zlopas [31]

Answer:

The probability that all 70 messages are transmitted in less than 12 minutes is 0.117.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = the transmission time of each message.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows an Exponential distribution with parameter <em>λ</em> = 5 minutes.

The expected value of <em>X</em> is:

E(X)=\frac{1}{\lambda}=\frac{1}{5}=0.20

The variance of <em>X</em> is:

V(X)=\frac{1}{\lambda^{2}}=\frac{1}{5^{2}}=0.04

Now define a random variable <em>T</em> as:

T = X₁ + X₂ + ... + X₇₀

According to a Central limit theorem if a large sample (<em>n</em> > 30) is selected from a population with mean μ and variance σ² then the sum of random variables <em>X</em> follows a Normal distribution with mean, \mu_{s} = n\mu and variance, \sigma^{2}_{s}=n\sigma^{2}.

Compute the probability of T < 12 as follows:

P(T

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that all 70 messages are transmitted in less than 12 minutes is 0.117.

I need help in this qustion.each unit costs 14p.how much do 942 units costs?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

£131.88 or 13188 pence

Step-by-step explanation:

1 unit = 14p

942 units = 942 x 14

942 units = 13188p

£1 = 100p

13188 ÷ 100 = £131.88

£ represents a group of 30 people that visited paris for a weekend break. 13 of the group visited the eiffel tower (ET) 16 of th
Feliz [49]

Answer: the probability that a selected at random person only visited one of the two places is 0.56 or 56%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 30 persons.

13 visited the Eiffel Tower

16 visited the No Tre-Dame Cathedral.

7 did not visit either.

for selecting a person at random, the probability that this person only visited one of the two places is equal to the number of persons that visited only one place divided the total amount of persons.

First, calculate the number of persons that visited only one place.

let's take the initial data and sum it all.

13 + 16 = 29 persons that visited at least one place.

7 persons that not visited any of the places.

29 + 7 = 36

But in the group, we have 30 persons, so here we had a  surplus of 6 persons.

This means that 6 persons visited the two places, so we must discard those 6 in both groups,

People that only visited the Eiffel Tower 13 + 6 = 7

People that only visited the Cathedral 16 - 6 = 10

total: 10 + 7 = 17

proportion = 17/30 = 0.56

Then, the probability that a selected a random person only visited one of the two places is 0.56 or 56%

How can I round significant figures on a calculator?
mars1129 [50]
You cannot round on a calculator (at least the type I use). You need to learn how to do it yourself, if you are required to round to 3sf look at the 4th digit if it is greater than 5 you round the 3rd digit up and if the 4th digit is less than 5 leave the 3rd digit as it is
eg. 66.7223838 
     = 66.7
eg2. 657892354
     = 658000000
