Answer:

a(a - b)

Step-by-step explanation:

given polynomial: a²- ab - 8a + 8a

We can first simplify this answer by removing like terms,

- 8a + 8a = 0

so we have a²- ab in. the simplest form

we can take this one step further and factor out the a (not simplest form)

a time a = a²

a times b = ab

hence, a(a - b)

A set of four cards consists of two red cards and two black cards. The cards are shuffled thoroughly, and I am dealt two cards.

Delvig [45]

25% because if you have 4 cards which would equal 100% and you are dealt 2 you have a 25% chance of getting any of the 4. (25x4=100)
But, if you are talking about probability of color it would be 50% because if you have 2 red cards and the total deck is 4 cards, then that is already half of the deck. And if you have 2 black cards then that makes up the other half. but if you are talking individually like Red 1 and Red 2 and Black 1 and Black 2 separating them would create a 25% probability. So, x= 25% (infivudually) or 50% (by color)

We learned in that about 69.7% of 18-20 year olds consumed alcoholic beverages in 2008. We now consider a random sample of fifty

maw [93]

Answer:

(1) The expected number of people who would have consumed alcoholic beverages is 34.9.

(2) The standard deviation of people who would have consumed alcoholic beverages is 10.56.

(3) It is surprising that there were 45 or more people who have consumed alcoholic beverages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of adults between 18 to 20 years consumed alcoholic beverages in 2008.

The probability of the random variable X is, p = 0.697.

A random sample of n = 50 adults in the age group 18 - 20 years is selected.

An adult, in the age group 18 - 20 years, consuming alcohol is independent of the others.

The random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 50 and p = 0.697.

The probability mass function of a Binomial random variable X is:

$P(X=x)={50\choose x}0.697^{x}(1-0.697)^{50-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...$

(1)

Compute the expected value of X as follows:

$E(X)=np\\=50\times 0.697\\=34.85\\\approx34.9$

Thus, the expected number of people who would have consumed alcoholic beverages is 34.9.

(2)

Compute the standard deviation of X as follows:

$SD(X)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{50\times 0.697\times (1-0.697)}=10.55955\approx10.56$

Thus, the standard deviation of people who would have consumed alcoholic beverages is 10.56.

(3)

Compute the probability of X ≥ 45 as follows:

P (X ≥ 45) = P (X = 45) + P (X = 46) + ... + P (X = 50)

$=\sum\limits^{50}_{x=45} {50\choose x}0.697^{x}(1-0.697)^{50-x}\\=0.0005+0.0001+0.00002+0.000003+0+0\\=0.000623\\\approx0.0006$

The probability that 45 or more have consumed alcoholic beverages is 0.0006.

An unusual or surprising event is an event that has a very low probability of success, i.e. p < 0.05.

The probability of 45 or more have consumed alcoholic beverages is 0.0006. This probability value is very small.

Thus, it is surprising that there were 45 or more people who have consumed alcoholic beverages.

The point U (-2,0) is translated 1 unit up. What are the coordinates of the resulting point, U’?

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Point U' (-2, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

When moving up and down on a graph, this affects the y coordinate only.

Since it is moving up 1 unit, we have to add 1 to the y coordinate. So U' will end up being (-2, 1).

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Office on Smoking and health is the lead federal agency responsible for comrehens

storchak [24]

Answer:

a) The percentage of adults who smoke are decreasing with time. b) the equation that best described this data is y=-0.3364x+22.809 (R^2=0.859) in which y is the percentage of adults who smoke and x the number of years. c) the percentage of adults who smoke will be 19.8% and it will not meet the expected 12%, it would take 32 years to reach that value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data can be plotted to which years is the independent variable and percentage of adults who smoke is the dependent variable. The linear trendline that described this data has a negative slope which indicates that the percentage of adults is decreasing with time. In order to determine if the OSH target is being met, the x is replaced by 9 which is the goal period of nine years. The y is 19% which is higher than the 12% goal. In order to know the period it will take to the reach the goal of 12%, the y is replaced by 12 in the curve and the x is the answer in years = 32 years.
