Answer:
a) 0.1 = 10% probability of a tip of $200 or more.
b) 0.4 = 40% probability of a tip of up to $50.
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
Distribution:
Total of 500 checks.
200 with tips in the interval of 0-20.
100 with tips in the interval of 20-50.
75 with tips in the interval of 50-100.
75 with tips in the interval of 100-200.
50 with tips of 200 or more.
a) What is the probability of a tip of $200 or more?
50 out of 500. So
0.1 = 10% probability of a tip of $200 or more.
b) What is the probability of a tip of up to $50?
200 out of 500. So
0.4 = 40% probability of a tip of up to $50.
To start, find your equation, n=3000(.5)^t, n being your number of bacteria and t being your time. Now plug in 375 for n and solve for t, 375=3000(.5)^t, .125=.5^t, 
. This means your answer is 3 minutes. To check it, plug it into your equation. n=3000(.5)^t=3000(.125)=375
