The Probability of that more than 7 of them germinate is 0.2948.

<h3>What is Probability?</h3><h3>Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1.</h3>

We are to determine the probability that more than 7 of 10 seeds (i.e. 8, 0r 9 0r 10) germinate.

The probability that all 10 seeds germinate is equal 0.80¹⁰= 0.1073 = 10.73%.

The probability that only the first (only the second, etc ) seed does not germinate is equal 0.20 X 0.80⁹= 0.0268 = 2.68%.

The probability that 6 seeds germinate is the sum of the probabilities that only the first seed does not germinate, only the second one does not germinate, etc, and equals to 10 X 0.0268  = 0.268 = 26.8%.

The total probability that more than 7 of 10 seeds germinate is the sum of the probabilities that 10 seeds germinate and that 7 seeds germinate, i.e. 2.68 % + 26.8 % = 29.48 %.

Thus, The Probability of that more than 7 of them germinate is 0.2948.

inn [45]

Answer:

1.Equation ----- 8x=12

2. x=1.5

3. cost of a single song is $1.5

4.$12 gift card will download 8 songs

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of money the gift card holds is $12

Number of songs bought= 8 songs

Let the cost of a single song to be =$x

The cost of 8 songs will be =$x × 8=$ 8x

So the 8 songs will all cost $12

This means; $ 8x = $12

Equation------ 8x=12

Finding cost of a single song

8x=12------------------divide by 8 both sides

x=12/8------------------simplify

x=3/2 = $ 1.5

Checking for solution

if a single song costs $1.5 , who many songs can a gift card with $12 download?

Here we divide $12 by $1.5 = $12/$1.5= 8 songs------------correct number of songs as mentioned in the question.
