Your father will require 14.6 cups of sugar for the larger group

<h3>Ratio and proportions</h3>

From the question, we have that 2.5 cups of sugar can be used to make recipes for 6 people that is;

6 people = 2.5 cups of sugar

In order to calculate for 35 people, we will have;

35 people  = x

Taking the ratio of the expressions

6/35 = 2.5/x

6x = 87.5

x = 87.5/6

x = 14.6

Hence your father will require 14.6 cups of sugar for the larger group

Answer:

B). 3 1/2(-2) = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's evaluate the expression so as to be able to get the right estimate.

3 4/7 (-2 1/12)

=3 4/7 (-25/12)

= 25/7 * -25/12

= 25/7 * -25/12

= -625/84

A sign on the pumps at a gas station encourages customers to have their oil checked, and claims that one out of 10 cars needs to
Archy [21]

Answer:

0.2916, 0.1488, 0.0319

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a sign on the pumps at a gas station encourages customers to have their oil checked, and claims that one out of 10 cars needs to have oil added.

Since each trial is independent there is a constant probability for any random car to need oil is 0.10

Let X be the number of cars that need oil

A) Here X is BIN(4,0.1)

P(X=1) = 4C1(0.1)(0.9)^3 \\= 0.2916

B) Here X is Bin (8, 0.1)

P(x=2) = 8C2 (0.1)^2 (0.9)^6\\\\=0.1488

C) Here X is Bin (20,5)

P(x=5) = 20C5 (0.1)^5 (0.9)^{15} \\=0.0319
