Answer:
Answer is 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The text implies that the number of traffic accidents determines the number of ambulances required on the road. Hence, 1 traffic accident requires 1 ambulance.
The time slot and time of day remain same in both the text and the question.
The average or mean number of accidents is 1.1
QUESTION: What then is the probability that there is need for exactly 2 ambulances on that road and in that time frame?
In other words, what is the probability that there'll be 2 accidents on that road and in that time frame?
Since the mean number of accidents is 1.1, 2 is above the mean.
Probability of 1.1 accidents is 1, since that's the mean (expected value).
Probability of 2 accidents is 1/2 which is = 0.5
In the given problem it is already stated that the cost of each eggs is 15 cent. Out the total eggs bought 6 were broken. The rest of the eggs were sold for 20 cents each and the profit made was $4.80.
Cost of the 6 broken eggs = (6 * 0.15)
= 0.9 cents
Let us assume that the number of eggs bought = x
Then we can write the equation as
0.2x - (0.15x - 0.9) = 4.80
0.2x - 0.15x + 0.9 = 4.80
0.05x = 4.80 - 0.9
0.05x = 3.9
x = 3.9/0.05
= 78
So the number of eggs bought by him is 78
Answer:
2.5 right?
Warning: Answer may be wrong. I don`t know, it`s 11 A.M so please forgive me.
$3
its like a pack of 12 magazines costing $36 and you asked the cost of one magazine
by proportion; let average be=?
12~$36
1~?
1/12=?/36
?=(1/12)*36
?=3=average
Substitute the x values back into the equation
(1, 22)
(2, 18)
(3, 14)
(6, 2)
