Answer:

1 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4= 0.75

2/3 = 0.666666667 so on...

divide and you get 1.125 which is also written as 1 1/8

You could do this with fractions. I'll do decimals later.

d = 3/4 mile
t = 2/3 hour
r = ????


r = 3/4 // 2/3 Invert and multiply the denominator
r = 3/4 * 3/2 = 9/8 = 1 1/8

If your calculator handles fractions, you can use it to do this. If not you can change this to a decimal.
d = 3/4 = 0.75 miles
t = 2/3 hour = 0.666666666 hours.
r = ???

d = r*t
r = d/t
r = 0.75 / 0.66666667
r = 1.125 miles / hour
which gives you exactly the same answer 1.125 = 1 1/8

Jackson goes to the gym 0, 2, or 3 days per week, depending on work demands. The expected value of the number of days per week t
valina [46]

For a probability distribution the expected value is the summation of product of probabilities with their respective data values. Let x be the probability that Jackson goes gym for 2 days and y be the probability that he goes gym for 3 days.

For the given case we have following values and their probabilities:

0 : 0.1

2 : x

3 : y

So the expected value will be = 0(0.1) + 2(x) + 3(y)

Expected value is given to be 2.05. So we can write the equation as:

2x + 3y = 2.05 (Equation 1)

Also for a probability distribution, the sum of probabilities must always equal to 1. So we can set up the second equation as:

0.1 + x + y = 1

x + y = 0.9 (Equation 2)

From Equation 2 we can write the value of x to be x = 0.9 - y. Using this value in equation 1, we get:

2(0.9 - y) + 3y = 2.05

1.8 - 2y + 3y = 2.05

1.8 + y = 2.05

y = 0.25

Using the value of y in equation 2 we get value of x to be 0.65

Therefore we can conclude that:

The probability that Jackson goes to gym for 2 days is 0.65 and the probability that he goes to gym for 3 days is 0.25
