P(X = 5) will have a probability of 0.101 that less than 5 of them do not require vision correction.

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

Probability is synonymous with possibility. It is concerned with the occurrence of a random event.

Probability can only have a value between 0 and 1. Its simple notion is that something is very likely to occur. It is the proportion of favorable events to the total number of events.

Given data;

The probability that no vision correction is required p = 0.24

No. adults are randomly selected n = 12

We'll introduce a random variable. Out of every six adults, X does not require vision correction. The distribution of X is binomial. The probability required is P ( X = 5 )

From the binomial distribution:

P(X = 5) = 12C₅×(0.24)⁵×(0.77)⁷

P(X = 5) = 792×0.0007962624×0.1604

P(X = 5) = 0.101

Hence, the probability that fewer than 5 of them do not require a vision correction, P(X = 5) will be 0.101.

A furniture company manufactures desks and chairs. Each desk uses four units of wood, and each chair uses three units of wood. A
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

$180000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's c be the number of chair and d be the number of desks.

The constraint functions:

- Unit of wood available 4d + 3c <= 2000 or d <= 500 - 0.75c

- Number of chairs being at least twice of desks c >= 2d or d <= 0.5c

c >= 0

d >= 0

The objective function is to maximize the profit function

P (c,d) = 400d + 250c

We draw the 2 constraint functions (500 - 0.75c and 0.5c) on a c-d coordinates (witch c being the horizontal axis and d being the vertical axis)  and find the intersection point 0.5c = 500 - 0.75c

1.25c = 500

c = 400 and d = 0.5c = 200 so P(400, 200) = $250*400 + $400*200 = $180,000

The 500 - 0.75c intersect with c-axis at d = 0 and c = 500 / 0.75 = 666 and P(666,0) = 666*250 = $166,500

So based on the available zones in the chart we can conclude that the maximum profit we can get is $180000

Volume=length times width times height
this should be easy

a.
the volume of a box is 2.5 times 1 times 1 or 2.5 cubic meters

b.
number of boxes times volume per box=volume of container
number of boxes=volumecontainer/volumebox
find volumecontianer
volumecontainer=5 times 2 times 3=30 cubic meters

number of boxes=30/2.5
number of boxes=12
12 boxes needed to fill container


c.
box
1m=100cm
1m by 1m by 2.5m convert so (times everybody by 100)
100cm by 100cm by 250cm
multiply
