Answer:

son's present age = 30

father's present age=60

his son's present age = x years

his father's present age = 2x years

before 20 years his son's age=(x-20) years

before 20 years father's age=(2x-20) years4(x-20)=(2x-20)

4x-80=2x-20

2x=60

x=30

malfutka [58]

Answer:

0.156

Step-by-step explanation:

Using binomial probability formula, we have :

P( a out of n ) =ⁿCₐ x pᵃ x qⁿ⁻ᵃ  ------------------------------------------------- (1)

Where n = total number of sample

           a = number of success

            p = probability of success

            q = probability of failure

            n-a = number of failures

From the question:

n =10 , a = 7, p=0.54, q = 1-p = 0.46

Substituting into equation (1) we have:

P (7 out of 10) =  ¹⁰C₇ x (0.54)⁷x (0.46)¹⁰⁻⁷

                      = 0.1563

                     ≈ 0.156

The number of students who attended Albany Medical College last year was 1000. This year, attendance has increased to 1350 stude
NeTakaya
First you have to subtract 1350-1000 to get 350. Then you have to make 350/1000 into a percent. First you have to turn it into a decimal. In the fraction 350/1000 can be reduced to 35/100. In decimal form it would be 0.35. In pecentage form it would be 35%. The percentage difference of the student population would be 35%.

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line that has a slope of 5 and contains the point (-1,2)
Cloud [144]

Answer:

y - 2 = 5(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is

y-y1 = m(x-x1)  where m is the slope and ( x1,y1) is a point on the line

y - 2 = 5(x- -1)

y - 2 = 5(x+1)
